    New phone time.

    Alright so I think tomorrow is time for a new phone! I can't wait I hope it's true lol. I'm hoping to run away from iPhones if I can so. I'm looking at the galaxy, what's the difference between the S3 and S4 that you guys can tell? An is the note 1 or 2 better? I use my phone for more Internet stuff, forums, Facebook, music, vids, sports. I guess I use it for everything but actually calling people lol so just wondering what people's thoughts are on those phones or any other I should look into you think. Btw I'm extremely hard on phones had this iPhone for maybe a year now and it's had full screen and back plate replaced three times an needs it again which is why getting a new one.

    I'm not sure which provider you have, but if it's Verizon you need to make sure to see if you're grandfathered in with unlimited data. About a year ago Verizon did away with unlimited data, so now if you're grandfathered in with unlimited data and you want to upgrade to get the cheap price of a phone by agreeing to a 2 year contract, you have to switch your plan which means you no longer have unlimited data.

    Since I learned that I made it a point to use as much data as possible, so I use on average about 15GB data monthly. I think it's crap that they force you off your plan and they try to say it's to save you money, but it's a load of crap because the plan ends up costing you more if you use 4GB or more a month.

    I'm leaning to s4 I can get hundred off for turning in my iPhone if I do it in time they said. So if that's the case it would be 100 dollars for the s4. An from what I've been looking at it seems to be the one to go, well Htc one is up there but I like the s4 little better so thinking and hoping by tomorrow ill have one.

    Re: New phone time.

    I have the Galaxy SII; before the iPhone 5 came out people kept asking me "omg is that the new iPhone?!?!?!" My SII outperforms the iPhone by far in my opinion. My friend just got an SIII and it's even better.

    Honestly Samsung phones are just fantastic, and they really crushed it with the Galaxy series. Best phones out there, imo.

    I have the SII as well and I love it. Been a solid phone, never had any issues with it. I just wish I would have waited 3 months, before getting the SII I could have had an SIII lol.
