What didn't you like about your G3 that is better on the Nexus 6?

I'm keeping Note 4 for one year. I had my SGIII for two years. I get a new iPhone every year. Not sure what I'll do with my Lumia 1520.
Varies.

I'm going to try to keep my current phones for a year. ...but I can't make any promises.

G3

How do you deal with the battery degrading over time? Just wondering if you replace it or use your phones only moderately.... ?

I had to replace the battery in my v195s once, but that's the only time I've had a phone long enough for the battery to wear out.

Basically 1-2 years, but if it does not go wrong, I'll keep it longer.

G3 was great at first but over heating was a total drag downloaded a battery monitor too see, changed cases. Buggy as hell and the lollipop update just made it worse... At&t solution was to swap it and didn't want to go down that road. Been wanting a nexus device for awhile but missed opportunity. Got some $$$ back this year a and went for it

Depends on the phone. Longest I've kept a phone is two years and the shortest a few weeks. Ideally every year but the last few months I've just been going through them like a mad woman

My Blackberry phones gets replaced every year as a flagship comes out.

My Android phones are kinda inconsistent as I replace if I feel like it (buy and sell). They remain one generation behind the most recent due to costs. The longest I had was a Galaxy Nexus, for 6 months. I'm hoping this Nexus 5 lasts longer.

Every two years in general. I have Huawei g525 for one year now, and I expect it to last for another year as well.

Normally every 2 years when I was on contract.. now that I'm off contract on prepaid, straight talk, not sure.. I have a nexus 5 I bought February of 2014 and still loving it.. I bought it outright so I'd like to get my moneys worth out of it, so I think sticking to 2 years is still ideal.. maybe longer who knows, might depend on the next nexus iteration.

Too often lol. Right now I'm using the BlackBerry Classic, so I will be hanging onto this one for awhile. I bought it off contract. I now have an upgrade available, so when I burn that upgrade, I'm going to try very hard to hold onto that one for atleast a year or longer.

I've been through a lot of devices between Christmas and now and I think I'm done now that all my devices have removable batteries and SD support.

I can't seem to keep a phone more than a few months. I have access to most of them and I just keep swapping them out. I am usually rolling with two or three at a time. I do have issues... My IPhone 6+ has been with me since launch, but currently have a Nexus 6, Droid Turbo, and just the other day I got a BlackBerry Classic.

We're getting forced to use those at work. Yawn. I wish we could at least get the Passport.

I replace my phone every 6 to 8 months..because after every 6 months there is a new update in the market with new phone...

...and there you have it. There is always something new and that is enough for a lot of us to want to switch. That's why there's Next, Edge, Jump, etc.

About every 2 years.
