ceethegreat Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 So my current phone is on the brink of death (it already seized up and needed the store people to fix it). It also turns out I'm due for an upgrade. So the question is... samsung galaxy s III or the droid razr m or something else? I have small hands, so the razr fits them better. And I use my phone primarily for texting/email/pics/FB/internet searching. Thoughts or recommendations? thanks in advance! Cee, Level 2 Wood Elf Adventurer of the Earth KingdomSTR 4.5 . DEX 1 .

Raincloak Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 I only upgrade my phone about once every 5 years. Currently using a Droid X and quite content with it. If you text and do pictures a lot, pick a phone with a good battery life and don't worry about screen resolution. In my opinion, Internet service is more a matter of your data plan than the phone hardware. If you streamed a lot of music and video, you'd probably want a phone that can do 4G.

AustralMoonBear Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I switched from Iphone3GS to Galaxy SIII about 2 months ago and couldn't be happier, that has a lot to do with moving from a closed to open enviroment though.The S3 really is a huge phone so have a good think about that against your hands - my fiancee finds my phone hard to use and ends up holding it in one hand and tapping with the other whereas my hands a big enough to still use my thumbs.

ceethegreat Posted February 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Thanks for the input! So far pretty much everyone I've talked to who owns an S3 loves it including my brothers, so that speaks well for it. Will do some research on the battery life on it, too. Any idea if there's an S4 (or whatever the next model's called) is coming out soon? Cee, Level 2 Wood Elf Adventurer of the Earth KingdomSTR 4.5 . DEX 1 . STA 3 . CON 5 . WIS 8.75 .

shiggles Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I believe the s3 was only released within the last 12 months or so - I it's still very much a current model do I wouldn't be worried about it getting superseded yet. I'm a HTC person myself just because I've had a good run with them so I eof have a look at the current models from then too. But I have heard good things of the s3 so that's probably a safe bet.

ceethegreat Posted February 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 I've had the HTC incredible and incredible 2 (I don't generally replace phones until they die) and like them... except they both had the same problems at the end of their lives: they just stop, freeze, restart, freeze, and don't make it past the HTC or start up screen and then kaput. The Verizon dude said that he's seen a lot of HTCs do that towards the end, so, now I'm weary about them. I'm leaning most towards the Razr M because its one of the smallest phones out there, but appreciate all the input! Cee, Level 2 Wood Elf Adventurer of the Earth KingdomSTR 4.5 . DEX 1 . STA 3 .
