If you're ingrained with Amazon, my SIL loves the Amazon Fire Phone so far. - JaxSean Aug 4, 08:25 3
- If that phone catches on at all, it'll be with people who want to price compare on the fly. -- nm - Inigo Aug 4, 08:26 2
  - and dont know they can do that with the amazon app on any other phone? -- nm - Truman Aug 4, 08:28 1
    - I've heard the Amazon phone is much faster at identifying the picture, but haven't seen it in person. - Inigo Aug 4, 08:33
If you can hold on a month, it's almost time for the new iPhone. -- nm - David Aug 4, 08:13 3
- Cool...our upgrades are soon, so we'll be in line for the 5S. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 4, 08:21
- I am kind of annoyed with the iPhone overall though, because of having to link to itunes for everything. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 4, 08:20 1
  - I use Amazon as my audio app on the iPhone. -- nm - David Aug 4, 09:28
Get a windows phone so Cortana will be your servant. -- nm - Star-Lord Aug 4, 08:04
probably would want to look at the Nexus models or the Galaxy models then. -- nm - Truman Aug 4, 08:02 1
- as a visual listing, here is engadget listing of smarthphones (sorta by the rank they gave) -- (link) - Truman Aug 4, 08:05
I like the HTC M8 -- nm - TWuG Aug 4, 08:02
Do you want a large screen or something the size of the iPhone? I have the Note and I love it but it's rather large. -- nm - Krusty Aug 4, 07:58 10
- I would like to go larger than iphone screen. I just want the phone to work well. -- nm - groiny Aug 4, 07:59 9
  - What do you mean by that? - spamlet Aug 4, 08:04 5
    - 1. the connection is slower than shit, 2. it decided to stop charging. - groiny Aug 4, 08:05 3
      - We've never experienced the charging issue, sounds like a specific phone issue. - spamlet Aug 4, 08:08 2
        
        I have to plug it in multiple times before it decides to take the charge. - groiny Aug 4, 08:11 1
        
        I don't think that's an iPhone thing, happened to my previous Android phone after it was a couple years old. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Aug 4, 08:36
    - You mean other than them being crap? -- nm - Star-Lord Aug 4, 08:04
  - Check out the S5 and Note 3. Both work very well in my experience. - Krusty Aug 4, 08:01 2

      - I'm very happy with Samsung right now. -- nm - Krusty Aug 4, 08:50
Galaxy S5 -- nm - Strongbad Aug 4, 07:58
I have a Nexus 5 that I really like. -- nm - droidlet Aug 4, 07:58
I just got the Galaxy S5 last week. It's an amazing phone. -- nm - decline Aug 4, 07:57 3
- I'm off contract and can't decide whether I want to get an S5 near Black Friday or wait for the S6 (February?) -- nm - Strongbad Aug 4, 07:59 2
  - I got in on a promo. It was $250 with a $150 rebate so netted out at 100 bucks. -- nm - decline Aug 4, 08:15 1
    - I'm betting they'll be down to $50 on Black Friday. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 4, 09:48
