So I'm eligible to upgrade my cell phone again August 1st. I currently have a Samsung Galaxy S2 through Sprint and was ready to get the S4. Now I see that LG is set to release their Optimus G2 sometime in August.

Guess there are some early reports with a very small sample size of some bending from pockets on the 6 plus. Wouldn't be surprised if it was more of people trying to find a fault than a real issue happening under normal use. [Reply]
I currently have no cell phone and no contract. I'm a minimal user for things like phone and text, but will probably use my new device for email and simple web surfing rather than lug a laptop home most evenings.
I'm thinking about going with Ting and paying out of pocket for a device. I'm sure I'll pick something relatively cheap--maybe the Galaxy SIII, the Nexus 5, or the Nexus X (assuming it's priced close to the 5).
Why shouldn't I just go cheap with the SIII? [Reply]
I just want to recommend the Motorola Moto G LTE to anyone looking for a simple smartphone that is more than snappy enough to run basic apps and games, is a great size (4.5 inch screen for the OG model), great signal on att and t mobile, and gets you through a day and night with 50% battery when you wake up. Camera is weak but works great in daytime. Think it's on sale for 200 on amazon, no contract. [Reply]

If you are looking for a cheaper, older model phone I would go with the Nexus 4 or 5. They will get the OS updates from Google more quickly (at some point Samsung will stop updating the S3.) Also, there is no bloatware so the older processor's will not get bogged down as much. [Reply]

Never said it was a flagship phone.
Every thing I have ever read has gone back and forth between 5.2" and 5.9". This is the first rumor to come with an actual render and they seemingly confirm 5.9", although I'm not sure how legit it is as I have my doubts (it looks like someone literally just photo shopped a Moto X). And someone just leaked a Verizon device that's 5.2" and shares the same specs as the rumors surrounding the Nexus 6 called the Droid Turbo.
Whats sucks is that I could have gotten a Moto X early since I'm a student but now the white front is on backorder and will be 4 weeks before being shipped and I've made up my mind that if I got a Moto X it would be with a white front:
Switched the red trim to blue on the ebony and I saw someone else's design on android central with the navy leather, white front, and gold trim and it looked pretty damn good, so I copied that and changed the back to the navy plastic. [Reply]
Where does your link say that's not the next Nexus? It even says that the far right is either the "Nexus (codenamed Shamu) or an Android Silver device." Clearly the leak of the phone I posted has "Shamu" taped on it from the person who leaked it. [Reply]
