Hello. I am planning to buy a Lg G2. The problem is that I can find them for like 70$ cheaper on sprint. I like T-mobile and get excellent coverage where I live (Los Angeles) and never have had any problems. My brother has sprints and says he regrets getting it? Should I make the switch or is the 70$ worth it?

Having a phone that can't be used as a phone is pointless. If the network sucks, I say to choose the network that is best for your area and the experience will be way better.
 
Good Point thanks.
But the other thing that concerns me is that many people in the LG g2 thread on tmobile are saying they had to return their lg g2 a numerous amounts of times. Another phone that caught my eye was the htc one even though its preety much ancient in the smartphone world.

Is a Quad Core Qualcomm 600 processor that ancient? I'm still running on a Snapdragon S4 lol
 
Well in the smartphone world it is.

Will you notice any difference in real life usage? If you are a basic user that will use it to occasionally browse the web or play games, it is more than enough.

Sprint just seems to be a sinking ship these days, so personally I'd go with T-Mobile, which is very much on the upswing.
 
I am leaving T Mobile for AT&T :/ I live in a suburb of Flint, MI. The entire suburb, which is 2 miles from a major airport, is all edge and H coverage. It's not the refarmed fast HSPA+, it's 2G speed, and actually, I miss over 70% of my phone calls.

I am on call at work, 7 days a month, and started missing phone calls.

This sucks.
 
Edge?!?! That does suck. You could check back with T-Mobile in another year or so, maybe they will have improved the network in your area by then.

Personally, I'd go for the G2. I'm not a big fan of TouchWiz or all of the extra features that Samsung throws into their phones--along with the OS, it takes up a full 8 GB of your internal storage, so a 16 GB S4 only has 8 GB of storage available to the user. The promise of the external microSD card support sounds good on paper, but "Galaxy S4 SD card problem" is a very popular thread around here. Not to say that the S4 is a bad phone--it's still an excellent choice overall. But you should try both out on your own in the store--play around for a while with each on, see how they feel, and see how you like the various UI features of both phones.

The GS4 comes with almost 10 GB out of the box :p

The nexus 5 is a good choice since it can be used on any carrier except Verizon and that's only because Verizon won't allow it on their network. If T-mobile's coverage is poor in your area, you can go over to AT&T, which has coverage comparable to Verizon. The LG G2 is a very overrated phone. The camera is way overrated as well. The S4 has a better camera IMO.
