So ya...right now I have the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play...and my new phone came in the mail today...which is the HTC DNA through Verizon.

Quad core CPU....2GB of RAM....1080p screen....ME GUSTA.

About to activate it...so excite.

What phones are you guys looking to upgrade to, if you're upgrading?

EDIT: And my HTC DNA is a limited edition Verizon one...which has a red back, and on the sides and front it's black...and it comes with the Nokia FatBoy Pillow...which is a wireless charger. Got all of this for $100 cause my mom works at Verizon wireless....very nice birthday gift.
:D

I still want the iPhone 5, but I'm not willing to break contract for it. I'll probably upgrade to the 5S or whatever the next iPhone will be called next year, since that's when I get a free upgrade.

blarg.

I have a Nokia C3.

I was going to get a smartphone, but then I remembered you can play Pokemon really easily with Java ME devices, so now I'm sticking with this phone.

Ya...I wish it was with more providers so it could be cheaper. From my knowledge, T-Mobile is the only wireless provider who officially carries the phone.

But hey...at least the Nexus 4 is unlocked...so you can take it wherever you want...and activate the 4G capabilities easily.

I just saw a green monkey nut shot a small tan lizard(?) in a gunny sack.

Right now I have the HTC Inspire 4G, looking to upgrade to the HTC One X in March.

I know it's not a phone, but trying to get my hands on an iPad Mini.
Congratulations, OP. Although this phone reminds me of the HTC Rezound... and we both know how that turned out. Unfortunately, developers and the Android community aren't too fond of Verizon, so it might have limited support when rooting/flashing/customizing if you're into that sort of thing. But hey, hope you enjoy it.

I'm not really into that kind of stuff because it has no benefit to me.

And as for rooting...to me knowledge it is OK to root your phone, but it WILL void your warranty.

Also...why an iPad Mini? You can get the Nexus 7 for $130 LESS and get something better, or pay $70 more than the iPad Mini and get the Nexus 10...which is better than the iPad Mini and the iPad with Retina Display.

OP, Off-topic, but...

Is today your birthday?

Ha

The only things I don't like about the HTC DNA is that the SD card and battery are not removable, and battery life isn't as great as other competing phones.

OP, Off-topic, but...

Is today your birthday?

No...it was on December 2nd. My mom had to wait to order the discounted, Verizon version of the phone for $100, which was ready to order just a few days ago. So ya...it's a late birthday gift.

Rooting is just a fancy word for flashing a custom firmware onto your device. It's pretty easy, but just double check that whatever ROM you use is fully compatible with your device to prevent instability.

I'm bound to Apple's ecosystem. I've invested in Music and apps, and the former is a bit problematic to transfer to your Android device unless if you've got Google Play Music which isn't available in my country. Besides, the Nexus 10 has fantastic hardware, but its app library is just underwhelming and most are upscaled mobile apps that don't take advantage of its marvellous display. And the Retina iPad is too bulky and heavy, and I've got an iPad 2 and the screen size isn't worth it for me.

I'm getting the iPhone 4S next week. Can't freaking wait.

Makes sense then...kind of.

Then since you're going with an Apple product...get the iPad 2.

Just saying...but the iPhone is free with a 2 year contract on providers that have it. I only know of Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint...I think that's it though.

And the iPhone 4 and the 4S have the same hardware. Both phones get the iOS 6 update, so that means your iPhone 4 gets Siri. I would know...my sister has the iPhone 4 and upgraded ti iOS 6 and she got Siri.

I'm eligible for an upgrade on Sprint this month. The 4 is free with upgrade, the 4S is $99, the 5 is $199

4S also has a bit of a nicer camera, which will be useful. So, yeah. It's worth it to me.

Ya...so just go with the iPhone 4. You get the same thing and get to keep $100 in your wallet.

The $100 really isn't a big deal to me, so I'm sticking with the 4S
