My Optimus S has served me adequately, big upgrade over my Samsung Instinct. My biggest problem is that after putting off the gingerbread update for ages, I finally allowed the update and my GPS has been rendered unusable ever since. The touchscreen would probably be my next complaint as web browsing and texting can be an irritating experience at times. Other than that the phone does most everything I need it to.
In my limited research, I think upgrading to something like the Viper or Optimus Elite, would be kinda pointless. Even when looking at the big dogs like the EvO and Galaxy, I feel a little underwhelmed. Can they really do much that my Optimus can't do? A big turn off is the size of those things. I would like a phone closer to the size of the Optimus S.
Might it be worth it to tough it out and wait on the upgrade until early 2013? I don't know what to expect from the next 12 months of phones. I'm near Green Bay WI, 3g atm and it seems to get slower every day. I'd appreciate peoples thoughts on whether to upgrade or wait a while.
