Hi all,
I know I might be getting biased answers asking this here, but thought I would get a feel for people who are actually using the device...
I am thinking of switching from AT&T to Ting (which uses Sprint's network). AT&T has much better coverage here than Sprint, but the savings may make it worth it. Ting doesn't subsidize their phones, which is fine, but I am trying to figure out if paying an extra $200 for a GNex is worth it. I can get a Epic 4G Touch for $200 or so, or a GNex for $400. I have always wanted a "pure" Google phone, but am very happy with my SGSII Skyrocket, which is almost identical to the E4GT. Plus, I worry that since the Sprint Gnex is not getting its updates straight from Google, the benefits of this Gnex is diminished somewhat. On the other hand, I know I can root and flash a stock ROM on the E4GT, but I'd prefer to rely on stock, OTA updates.
Any thoughts?
