Hey guys, So I've pretty much been an Android fan ever since it came out. Figured it be cool to get a thread up where we can discuss anything related to Android such as cell phones, tablets, etc.

I myself am now eligible for an upgrade at Sprint and was looking into the Samsung Galaxy S3...but I figured I should wait in case the new Galaxy Nexus is announced as rumored towards the end of this year. I've also been checking out the Nexus 7...For $199, it's definitely something that interests me enough to get me into the tablet market.

Feel free to post up what phone you are currently using, and I'll make a list out of it.

I have the Motorola Droid Razr

I've been using android for 5 years. Love this OS so much. Using an SIII right meow.

I'm so tempted to upgrade to the S3....I really like the look of it, and I know it'll be getting Jelly Bean. Like I said though, I'm gonna wait and see what the next Galaxy Nexus is going to be like. Hopefully it'll have awesome hardware, and come shipped with Jelly Bean.

I have a Galaxy Nexus right now, absolutely love it except for the awful camera, but I knew that going in.

Been with android since the OG. Owned an OG, Thunderbolt, X2 and Gnexus. Running a CM10 nightly right now and loving Jelly bean. Aeladis I would wait for the next nexus version since they're opening it up to multiple manufacturers this year. A Nexus by motorola would be nice assuming they do a good job.


I also have a Nexus 7 and I really like it except for the build quality. I've had screen lifting issues that I havn't been able to fix, even after removing the back and tightening the screws. It also creaks on the right side if I pinch it a tad. The software is great obviously. For how much youtube/netflix/reading I do, I think it was worth the minor build issues at least in my eyes.

I've recently thought about a switch to Windows Phone. I used to be a crack flasher but as the years have gone by I notice I only use my phone for basic things now. Texting, calls, twitter, basic stuff. I like Metro UI and if I eveer wanted to go back to android I have my Gnexus, which is no slouch of a phone

Ohh really? Multiple manufacturers? Well then I guess I'll definitely wait. My upgrade isnt going anywhere, and my current phone is slowing down, but still not intolerable.

I have a samsung exhibit II 4g. Not the best phone but for a no contract phone and my first smart phone, I'm happy. I've been using it for basic use and emulation.

I'm looking at getting a One V just for one of the second lines on my account. So's I can get the Ninja Tel ROM. That ROM is so badass.

I have been using Linux my whole life, and Android since it was released. I am currently using an HTC Thunderbolt, which to be honest I do not care for. I only got it because it was the first 4G phone on Verizon, and since I wanted me some 4G I had to get it. The battery life on it is the worst of any phone I have had. I was running Cyanogen but had some issues with the radio where I would randomly lose data connectivity and have to either switch into and out of airplane mode, or reboot. Also, to get the GPS working there was a issue which required a reflash with a Sense rom, and then back, which was annoying. I am now back on Sense using ThunderStick, and to be honest I like it so far. I have had a few issues though where the touch screen sometimes stops responding, and requires a battery pull. It's pretty annoying because it almost always happens when I am trying to hang up on someone's voicemail, and instead the get a message of me swearing at my phone before I pull the battery.

I don't know what I want next. I am due for upgrade in November, but to be honest I will probably buy something off eBay since I currently have unlimited data, and Verizon has done away with that. From what I have read, as long as I don't get a subsidized phone I can keep my unlimited data, but if I get a new subsidized phone I will be forced into a new plan with a cap, which won't work for me since I tether all the time and can download several gigs in a few hours at times.

Yeah, VZW sucks ass lately. If you can get a Galaxy Nexus or an LG Android phone for cheap, get those. The LG phones actually let you (last time I checked) uninstall the bloatware VZW tags on. And the Galaxy Nexus, well I shouldn't have to defend that phone. lol

I have a X2

Currently rocking an HTC EVO 4G LTE on Sprint. I picked it over the SIII because the pentile SAMOLED screen makes me cry.
