AC,
Hello everyone, I have a bit of a dilemma. My wife and I have been up for an upgrade for about 6 months now. We are currently STILL rocking the Sprint HTC Hero. I know oldie, but I am ready for an upgrade. I have been waiting for the EVO4GLTE and S3 to drop. Now that they are here I was torn between both of them.
Both phones have their pluses and minuses. I feel that I like the EVO would be a better phone as 2GB of ram probably won’t matter for me and what I do. I am not a super heavy user. I am a geek and I love to tinker, but I have not had a phone that I really cared about tinkering with before. So I don't have a lot of experience, but I am sure I won't have any problems doing it.
I think the biggest thing for me is to have as pure of a google experience as possible. I also love having regular updates, so that bring the Nexus into the picture. I love the JB changes. How good is the modding for the EVO and S3? I have been doing some research on CM and CM10 is going to be JB. I am not sure how long that will take to come out though. I guess my question is, How close is CM to a stock android experience? If I can get the S3 and install CM10 and get a fairly stock experience that would probably be the way I would RATHER go.
Also, how much better is the EVO and S3 over the GNexus?
Sorry for the wall of text. I have been back and forth on which phone to get probably 100 times now.
