New phone? - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have used the Motorola Defy since last December, I have loved and tweaked this phone since day one, but time is getting on, I run Quarx's CM10 and Its perfect but I want more, a bigger screen and more power!
What would be the best phone to get next I'm currently looking at the Samsung galaxy S3 and both the notes.
Any help?

My personal choice would be Motorola Razr or Sony Xperia Acro S. They both have enough power(to my needs). As far as I know they are bulletproof like our defy's . And I think Razr is much cheaper than S3... Hope this helps...

Not a big fan of Sony's phones, but the RAZR does look great, battery, HD and performance, but very expensive !!

Let me know what you get. I'm in the same boat. Always running out of storage space on my Defy running CM7.2.
Good luck.

I remember CM7 good old days, I never thought we would get JB and I'm worried we may not get key lime pie! Which is why I'm considering the upgrade. The note 2looks great, big screen and fast. Has anyone tried any other phone and thought "Damn" or "Niceee"

Might as well wait a week for CES and see what kind of phones (and specs) are going to be the norm in 2013. A 1080p screen and 2gb RAM are going to be the new high end benchmark. Sony Xperia Z (1080p, 2GB, quadcore) is rumored to be releasing in Jan itself. And when more phones with similar specs come out, the current crop will likely get cheaper.

Hmm...In Uk Razr is cheapest phone amongst Xperia and S3... Razr Maxx is quite expensive, but i dont think it is worth extra money. Razr i is more than enough for me and it costs about 330£(+-400€)... Thats would be my personal choice, and i know that that would last me for another 3 years, same as defy...

I guess the RAZR is cool, and will last a good few years, hard decision to make

Sold my Nexus S and already miss it...

Hi Guys,
Today I sold my Nexus S to my friend who develops an amazing new app.
They needed an ICS device that they can afford. After testing their app myself for a while, they convinced me to sell them the phone :crying:.
I don't know which new device I would buy (Gnex, S3 or One X), but I will definitely miss this amazing community of developers and people who are willing to help anytime.
Thanks and see you at your next phone forum...
I say buy a okish phone and wait for new phones to come out. They will me more up to date and can compete with next iphone

You don't think the one x or gs3 can compete?

I've used both, apply would have to basically fit a desktop pc into a phone to make the hox and gs3 irrelevant

They compete, but their the first phones of the "new generation" . Just wait till newer models come out in like the next couple months.

Wondering how many Note owners ordered this tablet.

Thought about it, and i think Nexus is amazing, but... it's just 2 inches more than my phone so i don't really need it.

I second that. I can't justify spending more money on mobile tech when mine seems to be a perfect balance (for me).
But I do still love using 10" tablets 7" just isn't big enough of a difference for me.

Still thinking about getting one, I'll need to have a play with one first though but as other others say its only 2 inches bigger and the note does it all !

Free 7" Tablet From Sprint!

Hey, it's not a Nexus 7...but not bad for free!
Buy a Sprint Phone get a ZTE Optik Tablet for FREE
Not a bad tablet for free, although I imagine they will make you get a data contract for it. It has the same display the Nexus 7 has, a 1280x800 at 7". Only downside is its running HC which is still much better than GB on a tablet. Although XDA has a fix for that as there appears to be unofficial CM9/CM10 builds out there:

I believe theres a data plan contract tied to it,some sites are confirming this

From your previous posts, I can tell you like comparing your phone to others.
If you are not pleased with it, just sell it because no one is going to justify keeping their s3.
The iPhone 5, Note 2, and Lumia all have their pros and cons buy the one which you think you can live with. In a few months they will all be obsolete, that's how technology works.

Best all rounder there is the S3
Fluid
Simple UI (Touchwiz JB version)
Great camera
Micro SD
Decent size
Nice build/design
Nice screen
Mature OS
Removable Battery
Excellent CPU/GPU
All at a decent price now
I;ve cracked my S3 screen
But I am definitely replacing it with another one.

iPhone 5 is already using obsolete tech, note 2 while better than S3 is too big 4.8in screen is perfect for me and lumia is made by a company way past its peak now.
This logic (almost as good as the logic in the op) says S3 is still best. Go S3, oh and this will probably get locked soon.
