Getting a nexus for my DROID razr... Sooooo happy

**the1m.polo** · 08-07-2012, 01:33 AM

So I have a GS3 and a DROID Razr I love my GS3 and the Razr is ok but I've had problems with it.. Today I got a Verizon rep to send me a nexus refurbished phone to replace my razr... I'll have to purchase a battery though.... I need it for my business line that's what my razr is used for... My initial thoughts was the value of the Nexus could buy me a tab to run my business if I sold it on ebay and use my Dinc for calls on the business line and GS3 as my personal line. but then I got to thinking it's a Nexus I may wanna keep it.... So what sounds better a GS3 for personal and nexus for running my biz apps and taking biz calls.... Or GS3 for personal and a nexus 7(selling the Nexus phone ) to run business apps and the Dinc to take business calls?

Show off lol. Sell the S3 while it's hot or trade it for a transformer prime. Keep the nexus. Aside from the camera and sexiness, the S3 isn't much of an upgrade over the GNEX imo

Or better yet, trade me your GNEX for my bionic + Lapdock!

Can your Verizon S3 be rooted? Samsung announce a developer edition for the S3 but Verizon doesn't subsidize that one so I assume you have the regular one. If it's rootable then I'd keep the S3 because it has 2G of RAM and a bigger screen, if it's not rootable then keep the GN. With either phone you want to get a big battery, I have a 3800ma Trexcell in my GN, there is a 4000ma battery available for the S3.

It doesn't make sense to keep both, they are very similar. It does make sense to get a 16G Nexus 7. I have a GN and the Nexus 7 and it's a great combination. I use the hotspot on my GN as an access point for the N7 when I'm driving. My GN is rooted and running Jelly Bean but when I was running ICS I used FoxFI for my access point because FoxFI bypassed Verizon's hotspot.

Yea I use foxfi too without being rooted... I've had it for a while... The GS3 can be rooted I'm sure if not... It will be its just a matter of time ... I have two back up batteries for the GS3 and a 5k mAh portable usb charger I purchased when I got the Razr..
Those were my thoughts but keeping the GS3..... I love the GS3.. It's going nowhere.... Lol
