Hi there,
So, my girlfriend is sick of her old school Samsung galaxy note (yes, the first one) and wants a new phone this weekend. I personally have a Nexus 5 and love it and she adores the features of the camera app such as the 360 photosphere and the new lens blur feature.
However, the nexus 5 is now getting pretty old for the phone world and I want to be sure she's getting the best phone possible when renewing her contract. My biggest worry with any off-Google phone though is updates. Without having android updates, she could be missing out on tons of new features just because she got the wrong phone.
So I'm trying to think of the best options here:
Nexus 5, HTC one M8, Samsung Galaxy S5, and maybe some hope of getting a OneplusOne?
I have not used cyanogenmod but would rooting the S5/M8 and running cyanogenmod possibly solve my problem with updates?
Just wanted to see what this community would suggest I do, thanks.
