Okay, I have the Honor 8:32g in Black. As you All know, I love this phone. I've also been wanting a 64 honor since day one of reading reviews in it. So my question is, if I purchased the Pearl White color in 64g and just put my 32g up for back up, would that totally just be way too crazy? So what do you all think? I'm on the fence big-time at the moment and could really use all if your advice. Thanks a bunch!!

I guess the question is... Do you really need this 64Gb phone, or do you just want it? I buy a lot of stuff that I don't really need, but just want. And, sometimes I want it so bad that it sticks in my brain until, against my sane judgement, I go out and buy it! Many times after I get it, I sit down with my new toy and ask myself... "Now why in the hell did I just buy this!?" LOL! Nothing wrong with that if you can afford it, and sometimes nothing wrong even if you can't... you'll just have to suffer for it! As long as you can afford it, go for it. It'll stick in your brain until you do... so buy it, buy it, buy it!!! :cool:

I agree. I think it's going to bother him so do it!
However, I would suggest buying from a retailer that allows returns without hassle...in case of buyer's remorse.

Peace of mind is worth it,provided that you can afford it. In the last four months, I have bought three phones in the$400 range, one in the$600 range,and two in the $750-800 range. Though I love my toys.

Are you running out of space? Do you plan on downloading a lot of Netflix videos? If the answer is yes, then yes.

I quoted retail price obviously, not the price that i paid

I am a bit sad though.. I missed the moto z Droid ( not the play) which was $120 on dpp with two mods and no service contract.

I had the 32GB Pixel XL. It stuck in my head that I wanted a smaller device with more storage. I FINALLY got tired of thinking about it and got the 128GB Pixel. I would day just go for it. Though I did sell my Pixel XL to compensate cost on the new phone. Why keep the other as a back up? Just sell it lol

Buy it. I went crazy with Honor 8. I have every color -- white, blue, black, gold and the white and gold are 64GB. All were under $350 or less thanks to Black Friday. Bought a blue like new with several unused screen protectors, cases and the charger and cable for $257. Their is no real difference in the 64gb vs the 32gb.

Have fun you don't live forever.

Well i think of it as a hobby. It might not make sense financially but it is fun!

I had a 32gb iPhone 7+ after I downloaded all my apps I had like 10gb remaining and it drove me nuts every time I looked at it.. since then moved on to a 128 and now I have over 110gb remaining and I don't know what to do with all that memory but I do know it doesn't drive me crazy looking at it anymore. Yeah we all crazy I guess.

You guys crack me up!! You all sound like me. For some reason my 32g although I don't download movies or songs, I have plenty of room still available but mentally it drives me insane knowing I could get the 64g. I had a iPhone 6s 128g and seriously on that phone due to my line of work, I had over 4000 pics on it and it barely touched that 128g. I think I'm going to order the 64g in Pearl color and just have two Honor 8 phones or do you guys think I should just sell my Nexus 6p when I order the 64g Honor? I can tell you I prefer the Honor 8 size much more but my 6p has been nice to browse the net and watch movies with its 5.7 inch screen and awesome resolution. Like right now I have both phones with me but I'm in my Honor as I type this. My 6p hardly sees any use anymore and I even just got 7.1.1 update on my 6p. Honestly I can't see that much of an interface difference between 7.0 and 7.1.1. The Honor 8 truly rocks!

To the ones who said it's a hobby and go for it, I respect that bc that is just how I am. I used to be that way with high end automatic Swiss Diver watches. At one time I had about 60k worth of high end watches at one time. You taking about insanity. I was in my early 30s to mid and one day I woke up and said I need to get a hold of myself so I sold off my collection and now I only keep one to two high end automatic watches. I was a big time member of several high end watch forums. Heck if you were to google DCJ Breitling watches or DCJ Omega watches or even DCJ photos you'd see hundreds of pics of all my watches and sports cars ive been through. I was crazy with it. Now I'm in to tech so I've been through a ton of phones since making the move over to Android. One of my favs is Motorola. I had the Moto Z Force with just about every Mod and that was a great device. Ironically the 6p is basically identical to the Z Force except for the obvious Moto mods. I have since left Verizon though as they messed up my bill and didn't own up to it so I went to Cricket.

Here's another choice I have. Amazon currently has the Moto Z on sale for $499 regular price $699. It's the one that's advertised as the slimmest phone made. It has the 820 processor and sky high resolution. I could go for it and get back into the moto mods and it would replace my 6p as it's 5.5 inches.

So what do you guys think. 64g Pearl Honor 8 or the flagship Moto Z with a couple of Moto mods which one being the battery mod and the other being the JBL speaker Mod. I thoroughly enjoyed my Z Force and loved the Mods. I'm leaning towards the Moto Z and just selling my 6p as it's basically still brand new. As a collector I keep all my boxes and interior components left in plastic along with the box having matching serial numbers as that tends to retain value better. I keep all my original boxes and papers due to my long time watch collecting.

So here it is... Moto Z unlocked for $499 regular price $699 or Honor 8 64g on sale on Amazon but not nearly as low as it was on black Friday. Out of the two, which would you guys go for. I have no doubt I'm going for it so now it's which to go for. One other choice is the ZTE Axon 7 64g 5.5 inch screen with the highest screen resolution which is on sale for $354 right now. I have to stay with Amazon bc that is where I have my credit at. I considered the Asus Zenfone 3 Deluxe but it seems not to have the support and reviews to back it's paper specs up. What do you guys think?

Since you already have an Honor 8, why not try the Moto Z and see how that goes for you? If it goes well, sell the 6p. If not, well you can sell or return the phone.

We all have a thing and $200 off is a big difference for a phone like that!

Do not even get me started on watches 😂😂 I love my Omega Speedy Pro. I am more a Chrono guy although divers are nice. Anywho, for the sake of staying on topic, I had the iPhone 7 Plus and Google Pixel XL. I finally landed on the 5" Google Pixel 128GB Quite Black. I find it to the be near perfect size. I enjoy watching videos on it. I do not not find it any different than a 5.5" screen honestly. I would sale the 6P or your other Honor though if you do not plan on using them.

Oh I know your watch well. I owned one of those once. I'm more of the chrono diver fan myself. Right now I'm looking at the Certina Chromo Diver DS Action. I'll post a pic. Back on topic, I think I'm going to grab the Moto Z for $499 which is $200 off and a mod or two and sell my 6p. I do think the Moto Z is too thin but I'll always have a style shell on it or a battery mod on it so it will feel normal. 1481259576417.jpg

Well you had the z force. The z is basically the same phone with a worse camera and battery life and glass screen. The camera on the z is worse than the moto z play and is the same as in the honor 5x.
