Think I'm gonna switch. Want something new. I'm down to 3 LGG2 or Note 3 or HTC One. Need some honest opinions. Help me out


Tapped out on my iPhone 5S

I've had the HTC ONE, its an awesome phone, and you can't go wrong by choosing it, however if size matters, for a little better phone, go with the Note 3! Don't know anything about the LGG2.

Re: Might be switching...

If you don't mind me asking, what are the things you'd miss, about the 5s, that the Note 3 couldn't do? Just curious!

iMessage FaceTime A7 chip accessories ecosystem value longevity speed apps one handed use durability doesn't use as much data compared to Android etc. Note 3 just has the screen size.

I'd even add Touch ID to that, I've grown quite used to having it and really miss it on my iPads.

I tried to switch last week. I convinced myself I wanted a Note 3, and tried it for several days. I really loved the phone but I am so used to my iOS ecosystem, iMessage, FaceTime, and touch id. I returned the phone and stuck with my iPhone 5s. How is your N3 experience so far?

Why did you go back? I have went back n forth from iPhone to android a few times.
My sig shows all the devices I have tried. I LOOOOVE the moto x, but it has Zero resell vale, and camera sucks hard.
I have an iMac and love the ecosystem too. But sometimes I am SO bored with it and the tiny *** 4" display.
I hate hate hate the way android compresses pictures sent in text messages. iMessage not compressing them kind of spoils you.
I love being able to text my friends using my iMac on iMessage too, as well as Facetime HD audio calls on wifi via phone And/Or iMac.

After having both iPhone apps are better than the android version 99% of the time. Not to mention Apple always gets apps before android. Hell, even google releases stuff on iPhone before android. And apps like Facebook Paper have been out for iPhone for over a month and there isn't even a timeline as to when android will get it. Maybe never if Apple sweet talks Mark enough.
It's those little things that keeps pulling me back to apple. iMessage non compression, ecosystem, app quality, resale value, getting updates when they release, not 1 year later, etc etc

But, like I said, it just gets boring, I like having a widget or 3, like the productivity of the Note 3 and the S Pen. Size. That screen on the Note 3 is beautiful.

I don't quite understand this thread.
I think you said that you was thinking about switching FROM the i5 TO the Note # but here you're saying that if you were to switch it would be to the Nexus 5. Is this a mistake?
If I were to switch I'd get a nexus 5
