Hello! Looking for a new Android phone.

Hello,

It's time to upgrade and I am looking at a few options for my next android phone.

First one comes to mind is the Samsung Galaxy S3 and this is a phone I would get without even doing any research, however with all these rumored devices popping up on the news feed everyday and I am start to wonder if I need to hold it off for a little bit just to see what else is out there.

Ideal specs for my new phone (I am on Verizon):
quad-core 1.4 or greater
at least 1 gig of ram
720 p resolution and up
16 internal storage with Micro SD slot
LTE
Battery that can last at least 10 hours on medium to heavy usage for emails (would like the battery to be removable but it's not a deal breaker)

I rad about the HTC DLX and the LG NEXUS 4 but none of them mentioned Micro SD, I was wondering if anyone else knows any high end android device that is coming out on Verizon before the holiday this year that would fit what I am looking for?

Thank you,

Don't expect 10 hours for a GS3, unless you use it as a phone only. It's a great phone, the screen could be brighter though. A little on the slippery side, and the screen's fragile...broke mine the day before I was going to grab my Otterbox. New phones come out all the time, all different shapes and sizes and specs. I'm pretty happy with mine, and don't even bother looking around at what I could be missing out on. No point. I'm locked in for three years, might as well enjoy them

yeah, I totally hear you. Since Gs3 is not so new (in phone year) anymore, while it's a great phone I just want to check what's coming down the pipeline so I don't kick myself right away.
I am very careful with my gadgets and phones, I don't think I have ever had a phone that did not still look new after I am done with it.
