Upgrade to a Samsung Galaxy S3, Samsung Galaxy Nexus or Evo 4g LTE? - Motorola Photon 4G

I love my photon, but it looks like it's not gonna be unlocked or updated, I have a upgrade now, what phone should I get?

Save that upgrade for a few months and get the new Nexus. By that time the ICS update for the Photon will have hit and we will have a stable Jelly Bean and hopefully Key Lime.

Good point. Works out pretty good for me as my upgrade isnt till next August. If Nokia and Sprint havn't released a WP8 device by then (which is likely due to sprints weird hatred for windows phone) the nexus will be my next phone.

I'm dealing with the question of which device as well. Our company upgrades to new devices every year and we are at that point. Having read all the reviews comparing the latest and greatest I am still unsure. Doubt it will be the Nexus since the hardware is more dated than the other two. I'm a bit hesitant to get a phone with no removable battery especially when we all know how handy a battery pull can be when installing custom roms. So, might be the S3.

Just picked up the galaxy nexus at Sprint. Great phone. Fantastic price. US galaxy s3 is three times more expensive, marginally larger screen, and only has a dual core 1.4 the cpu. Ultimate I found the nexus to be a much better value and for the most part every bit as functional as the s3.
cheers,
Jeremy

That's pretty much all you got? Evo 3D vs X phone threads? You just trolling hard, dude. Or should we forget your Evo vs SGS2 thread etc?
im 99% sure that this is the puccini tablet cause htc isnt famous for its screens if that woud be a samsung than that woud be something different and i hope in september will breeng us new devices cause i want to get one as htc failed with the gsm evo 3d and i woud newer by a high end device in september when new devices are anounced and i hope apple will bring us something exciting and new with the iphone 5

I think you would still be ok with the 3vo, however I would probably hold off judgement until then... By then you might have a solid Nexus Prime release date.
If it has ice cream update will definitely be a evo killer lol, but doubt it and it looks like an update thunderbolt when you look at the device id is almost the same as the thunderbolt (really nice device loved the screen on the phone)
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d

And this will hit the market with s-off for devs when? But it may be a tablet or a phone? with the same processor we have NOW ON THE 3VO AWESOME! CANT WAIT FOR THE KERNALS!

I would wait for the upgrade to get it on the cheap, but consider that we are just coming out of a round of processor releases, and if the last two cycles are any indication it will be about 16-18 months before anything that would count as a legitimate upgrade to the 3d will actually come out, so you'll be pretty close to another upgrade by then.
also in response to thread: really? i mean, we have 1.5ghz processors already and i dont think resolution has proven itself to be the metric by which phones live or die.

So i got the skyrocket today...

I went into at&t today planning to purchase the S2 but the guy in front of me bought the last one so i went with the skyrocket in white. I love the screen size and the color and visual voicemail (i hate Google voice sorry) and im not really noticing any lag etc and the data is definitely faster than my iphone 4s. My area is nowhere near getting lte so thats not a concern.. I want ics as quickly as possible so my question is will the skyrocket or sgs2 more likely get ics first and is there anything im really missing with the skyrocket vs the sgs2? Thanks in advance guys.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk
the gs2(att) will get it first because its close to the original GS2, skyrocket doesnt really have a widely avaliable model out.
The gs2 will more than likely have it before the skyrocket due to the ability to port from the Int'l GS2 and support from CM....and the only thing your missing between the skyrocket and gs2 is the skyrocket sucks
There are already several people that have ICS running (partially) on the i777. It will be a long time before the skyrocket see that.
But, at least you have 30 days to let them get one in stock.

So you bought the iPhone 4s and didn't like it. So you took it back which cost $35 and upgraded to the skyrocket? I'm sorry but the only phone I would have other than the 4s is the sgs2. I had the skyrocket and let me tell you, in about a week you'll regret that swap. I had the skyrocket and totally hated it. They throttle lte, the resolution is a joke, the battery(don't get me started). Anyway sgs2 will get ics first IMO. I have the sgs2 now and I'm good for a while.

did the skyrocket kill your dog, rape your mom and **** on your cheerios? wtf?
i have seen some lame arguments 'against' it that dont mean anything. since i have both of them and use them side by side, i can honestly say that the only differences are with the thickness of the device. running touchwiz rom on both at the same time (obviously, not stock) feels the same. they both react the same as an OS, they both have the same OS features. One has LTE and the other is faster in benchmarks.....woohoo, i can run friggin benchmarks all day long and it doesnt mean anything. LTE allows me to view the web faster, OGGS2 allows me the freedom of tons of mods/development already done for the device.
at the end of the day, they are both good devices and haters gotta stop hatin so hard. save your hatred for Apple fanbois...lol

Couldn't wait any longer, bought a Nexus.

Well after waiting what seems like forever for ICS I just finally bit the bullet and bought a Galaxy Nexus. I can say without a doubt that I will NEVER buy a branded phone again.
Its so awesome having a factory unlocked device that comes with ALL original accessories and NO bloatware crap, in the intended packaging. Jeez. I was really disappointed with what ATT did to the sgs2. Also I hate how the resale of US phones are CRAP. I was having a great time taking care of and flipping my iPhones every year. Boy was I surprised when I came to Android. With an international, hard to come by phone like the Nexus, resale will stay high until I want to upgrade to something better.
I am totally happy with my purchase so far. The phone really is great and the build quality and design is superior to the sgs2. The screen is really excellent despite all the negativity I read about the pentile display. Yes ICS is the majority of the reason the phone is so great, but I would still chose it over the sgs2.
Good luck to you guys, hopefully an official ICS leak comes out soon because you really are missing out on a lot.

This came out sounding like a brag thread when in reality I am just suggesting that you guys consider importing international phones. They are the real deal and updates come 6 months before US, fake, counterparts.

When sgs3 gets announced I will sell my Nexus here in the US for top dollar and import the sgs3 and have it 6 months before anyone in the US. It will also be factory unlocked and hold a way higher value than the US versions AND ill get Google updates 6 months sooner.

Because it will be 150 more and they have to order from over seas and deal with all that. A lot of people are impatient and want something they can get locally.
A lot of people won't know what the hell a sgs3 is when it drops and still think the Nexus is god when I go to sell it....

Just what I noticed. I'm thankful for my S2 and I love it. I'll buy an S3 a short while after their price goes down. The Gnex is dropping in value, just like all phones. I've sold each one of my devices for nearly what I pay for them.

Same specs as the HTC EVO LTE. Idk if I'm missing something but I'd like to hear some feedback from you all. I don't know if either wait for the HTC EVO LTE or the so called HTC Jet. And , will that mean that the EVO family has come to an end?
Btw the htc jet seems to have corning gorilla glass 2! Want to know the difference between 1 and 2? Our EVO 3D has Regular corning gorilla glass

Sounds like the codename for the Evo LTE.
Why would they release another phone with the exact same specs?
Maybe these two are the same phone. I don't know, what throws me off is that the Jet has no kickstand and the LTE does.

New info came in, this is its white version of the Jet, read the back, it says sprint. Either PhotoShop or a leak. To me it doesn't look PhotoShop'd

Hmm interesting

Awww could they have removed the kickstand? Not again.
Now the real question should be, why release TWO similar phones with similar specs so close by? (Rumored release date for the Jet is June) While the LTE release date is mid May.

What's the diff between EVO LTE n this jet tho other then no kickstand or removable storage.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
The jet seems to have a removable battery though... And no kickstand , while the LTE has otherwise, Kickstand and no removable battery

As I said, the Jet is the rumored version of the LTE before HTC actually announced it and it's real specs.
There is no reason HTC would ever release 2 devices that are almost exactly the same in such a short time frame.
Hmm wonder why they didn't announce it then also why would the push two of the same phone.. I mean same processor n **** right? Seems weird I bet it is sprints upgrade of the hero/design. Even with the bigger screen.

I think those are pictures of the HTC Evo LTE.
Not to mention preorders start may 13 for EVO LTE I would assume release date is June 10th that's Damn close to the release for the other evos of the past

Would you accept S 3 for the note?

The insurance company is offering me a galaxy s 3 as a replacement for my damage note.... Would you take it?
They didn't have anymore note so I said no because I had a bigger screen and stylus... Now they going to check somewhere else and call me back. Am afraid they will come back with a refurbished note.

Get the S3 and trade me for my Note.

Hell no, if they don't have a note demand a note 2. tell them you demand equal or better and will not settle for less, and make your key arguments s-pen support and screen size , of they say no remind them AIN'T NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT!!!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
I dunno man I'd probably tell them no ... If the s3 is brand new then I'd take it instead of a refurbished note

Refurbished isn't rebuilt. I've had refurbs that were brand new other than the box being opened on numerous occasions. Refurbished just means its tested and inspected as a 100% working device.

I know the S3 is technically a better phone, but I actually use the S-Pen. I also read a lot of comics on my Note, so even half an inch more screen is awesome.

My girlfriend has the S3 and I have the note. I like the S3 and it's pretty zippy stock but I don't think I could part with my note's screen size and with the devs here, my phone is operates just as fast as hers. Also:

Agreed, I don't have it on my phone, but I have it on some hardware in my truck due to the heat and for the cost it's silly not to get it

that's killer...
I would trade my s3 and my note for a note 2 but can't find any takers on our local barter site.
the note 2 is amazing
I read on reddit this guy who works for a phone company describing the process of refurbished phones. In actuality they are heavily tested to work 100% like new with new parts and most of the time it's a cracked screen. They work more properly than a brand new phone because a new phone isn't tested by an individual. Additionally, you will run into less problems. In all respects though, as good as our developers are- the gs3 is a sexy piece of hardware I'd take it in a heartbeat. Plus the cases.... Ohhhh the cases...
