Here's the thing, I really don't care about air gestures, eye scrolling, camera mods, pause playback that tracks my eyes or whatever, so this edition should be perfect for me you'd think. But honestly I'm not sure.
Not only does this photo editing cost way more upfront than the subsidized version, but I'm not sure if Frankenstein in stock Android in this thing is the right thing to do. I basically feel like I'm paying two e as much for a faster nexus 4. I do get LTE (but I'm going to tmobile soon anyway so LTE isn't a factor for me yet), bigger/removable battery, and a better screen. I assume the tech is also faster than the nexus 4.
So I'm not sure if it would just be better to pay the 150 up front on tmobile and 20 dollar monthly payment for the way the phone was originally designed to be. Or pay the 650 up front for timely updates, maybe more responsiveness in the OS compared to touch wiz, and does away with all the bloat ware.
Does anyone else think it would feel weird having a device with a ton of tech and features you couldn't use? Or is the hardware specs itself worth it?
