I'm looking for a new favorite phone...

[krayzeesmoke]

Imho the HTC HD2 was the best phone ever made, way ahead of its time in performance and upgradability (I just made that up, consider it 'coined').
I went from that to the Galaxy S3 with only a upgrade in speed and screen size, but limited in every other way (ie wifi sharing, call recording (bill collectors) etc.)
I'm switching to Verizon from T-Mobile, because of my job so it's time for an upgrade. Thinking about the M8 or the Note 3.
Any ideas? ?

Welcome to the forums.
I would check out either the Moto X or the Nexus 5. Both are great devices.

Welcome to the forums!

The M8 and Moto X are great phones.

Thanks for having me, I've not heard much about the MotoX, I need to research it a bit

Welcome to the forums!
Moto X is a good phone.

M8 is the newest, and people that got it already are very happy with it.

Why is it that you guys have the s4 if the Moto x is that good? Thinking out loud (in print)

Because the S4 came out before the Moto X.

Doubtful.

But you should still get a Moto X.

The M8 with its SD slot is awesome.

Meh, the lack of a 64gb option is one of the reasons I'm not getting this device. I know I'm in the minority on this debate, but an SD card isn't something I'm interested in.

I never wait several months on a phone because it's going to be old tech just a few months after that. Always get the best that's available now and start enjoying it. Then, when you're ready to upgrade, you'll be ahead of the one you would have waited for.

Why would you not want an SD? Not debating, genuinely curious. I'm not into this stuff enough to figure out why a 128gb option wouldn't be good enough.

SD cards are pretty much only used for music+pics/vids. If you don't listen to music, you don't really need an SD card since you can just store your photos on the cloud. Plus SD cards are known to corrupt far more often then internal storage

Which Android has a 64GB option?

M8 also supports app to SD so a lot of app data can go into the SD card.

I love my GS4!

Would not get a Moto X unless is given to me for free.
Then I'll sell it or give it to a family member and still keep on using my Galaxy S4!

But he asked about the X and the M8.

Because google has stated that it isn't part of their roadmap and because internal storage is just easier. I don't have to worry about what is on internal vs, external, I don't have to have an app that moves stuff around, over all I just don't have to think about it. I gave up on that when I switched from a Treo 650 to the original iPhone.

The M7.
