Hi guys. Long time reader, first time poster.
I'm upgrading from Blackberry to the Droid Ultra. The new phone should be on my doorstep when I get home from work. I'm very excited to get the phone but no matter how all good the reviews are about the phone, the general consensus is the Maxx is a better phone by leaps and bounds. The only differences that I know of are the bigger battery and an extra 16gb of storage. I've even read complaints (more like people dissing) about the glossy back and how it's a fingerprint magnet. I really don't listen to music or store videos on my phone so the 16gb of storage on the Ultra seems like enough. Now I read that after the OS and other stuff, the usable storage is 10.5gb. Keeping that in mind and the fact that I'll have the Ultra for 2 years and with the few games/apps I'll download, pictures I'll keep on the phone, and various firmware/OS updates, should I just go ahead and try to upgrade to the Maxx? I realize I may have just answered my own question but I'd just like to hear what the experienced droid users have to say. Thanks.
