Choosing a new Android Phone

[Harpr33t]

The battery life of the HTC one m8 is actually pretty good. It even comes with http://www.techradar.com/us/reviews/phones/mobile-phones/htc-one-m8-1235307/review/4

 

The program extends the battery by disabling background data and a bunch of other feature. There's even another tier available that shuts down almost everything if you are in an emergency and need it active for another 5 hours with like 10 percent left.

 

Plus it comes with htc advantage which replaces a broken screen for free if you break it in with the first 6 months and guarantees 2 years of updates.

Go for the Nexus, I have the S4 and wished I would have gotten the Nexus.

OnePlus One hands down.

 

But the only downside is that you have to get an invite for it inorder to buy it.

 

But they're really good and quite cheap.

Just get the One Plus One. You get all of the specs of the S5, but for the price of $350 for a 64 gb. The only downside is that there is a waitlist for getting an invite. The supply is shit, and the demand is off the charts. But you just have a great phone for an amazing price.

I bought an HTC One M7 the day it was released. I had killed yet another iPhone and wasn't going to go the iPhone route again.

I have never been happier with a phone purchase. The battery life has been double, sometimes triple what I could get out of my iPhone. It's interface has grown on me. (This is the part where I sound really old) I'm adding a line for my son at some point this month. I'll be handing him my M7 and getting myself the M8. I've dropped my phone a ton and have little to no damage to show for it.

 

I usually don't like agreeing with Harpreet... But in this case I have to.

 

With Phones there is always a certain level of fanboy-ism and strange brand loyalty. So you kinda have to ignore some of the hype and go with what fits your needs best.

 

I have owned several iPhones, a Galaxy S3 (was looking at the s4 but I needed a phone fast and the HTC One launched first) And I'm glad it did. If HTC Continues to produce phones at the quality level of the M7 I will continue to buy from them instead of their competitors.

 

Find a store that has working demos of the models you're interested in and spend a few minutes playing with them. (Tell the salesmen to back the fuck off if they approach you) buy what works for you.

They usually do an invite give-away, you have to sign up for it inorder to get 1. But you gotta be quick, tho or they'll be gone in an instant.

 

Here's an how-to:

Also you could keep an eye out on their forums.

Don't know if you got one but the LG G3 is great (currently the best android phone on the market) although it's a bit pricey it will still last you a while.
