Not only because it is 99$ with a 2 year upgrade... but because it also comes with an extended battery and it seems that is the biggest problem the phone has judging by what ive read.
My biggest concern is getting through a day with my phone on light use. Lets say to just answer important calls or reply to important texts, all the extra stuff like twitter, games... I can do at home. I had the Nexus S 4G and it frustrated me that it took like 5 hours to charge fully after the battery was near empty is it the same with this phone?
All I pretty much am concerned about is battery life and I mean I dont need a super great camera but I mean I would mind a decent one that atleast takes OK pictures in the day. Aside from those two things I mean I am not picky.
That is all. I dont really care that the phone is a year and something old, or the cheap build, or the lack of a micro sd slot, I am in L.A so I can also live without the 4G LTE for now I guess... Do you guys think The Nexus is the way to go for me? And would it satisfy my minimum requirements for a phone? (get through the day with light use, and decent pictures in the day)
I would really like some input from those of you who have had it for a while or even those that just got it. I was looking around at the phones Sprint is offering and I really want the Nexus
*** my previous phones
(HTC Inspire (loved it but hated the fact that if I used it for 5-10 mins consecutively my battery would be dead by midday when I would leave the house at 8am with a full charge)
Nexus S 4G (loved it as well but same thing with battery. Used it 5-10 mins and the battery would be dead by midday, the only difference would be that with the Nexus S 4G it would take around 3-4 hours to fully charge which made things really difficult.)
Photon 4G is my current phone. It is a great phone in my opinion it pretty much does what I want. The battery normally lasts me through the day on a full charge in the morning and if it dies it charges back up fully pretty quick. The pictures are great. The only knock if any is the quality of the screen and well I want to upgrade because I have droppped this phone so many times it is all beat up haha)
