    Nokia Lumia 635. I like it. Does everything I need to do and the processor is pretty quick for a cheap phone. Pretty durable to.

    Samsung Galaxy S2 running CM11. Hopefully Lollipop will be daily driver ready in the next month or so, its nice to see that people have already got it running though. Love this phone.

    Sony Xperia M. I like it. Does the job. Most new phones are too big for me, I hate massive phones.


    Root it. Can uninstall factory apps then.

    If you are feeling a bit more adventurous then it is really easy to install CyanogenMod. While i personally haven't used the installer (Hipster moment :p : I was running CM before the installer was available) i know a few people who have and they havent had any issues although they are fairly technical people. But from the instructions you should be able to see that it isn't a particularly complex procedure

    Currently have a year and a half old iPhone 5 on the newest version of iOS. No cracks or anything except a dent on the top right from a drop.

    I'm growing increasingly tired of iOS though. I was an Apple fanboy at first but now I finally see all the places it falls short. It runs incredibly slow now with iOS8, and I'm always battling myself with finding enough storage for anything with my 16gb (nearly 5 of which is taken with Apples crappy default apps which I never even use half of). Also, lately my phone has been deciding to totally ignore my wifi network. I'll have full wifi and it will simply not load anything no matter how long I wait. Or I'll be streaming something and it just stops working. After a restart or 2 I may be able to get it working but it's a serious burden. Not to mention the battery I have to charge twice a day. I pretty much struggle to find any benefits in the software or hardware. There really isn't any point in upgrading to the 6 since it's the exact same phone for all I care, except with a crappier build quality and a fingerprint scanner, which isn't a huge deal to me anyways. I seriously can't wait until I can get a new phone next summer. I'm eyeing the Nexus 6 or the Note 4 but I can't really decide just yet.

    I can certainly understand where you're coming from.
    I haven't had any big problems with ios, yet, I'm just bored of it.
    I want something more. IOS is so basic and simple. It doesn't do any more than simple tasks.
    I'm just overwhelmed by all of the other choices out there. I can't decide what I want. Each phone has way too many pros and cons to it, and I can't decide what I care about most.

    HTC Raider. No, nothing about it is good, nor was it when it came out. My favorite feature is how the camera auto focuses perfectly, then focuses all the way out before taking the photo once you hit the shutter button.

    Galaxy S2, battery is dying and part of the backlight is dead.

    I need to replace it. Probably gonna be a Lumia 630, something simple and affordable. Also windows phone because I like creating WF stuff when I'm bored and there is no reason for me to have Android.

    Exactly. I can't wait to get my hands on Android. I've already tried Windows and wasn't very pleased, and the same is happening with iOS. Hopefully the third time's a charm lol
    There are just so many features. So many things to manipulate and make the way I want.
    I really want a phone with removable storage but that pretty much only includes Samsung, which I'm not entirely sold on. There is so much crap on Samsung phones that I'll never use and their version of Android just seems cluttered and unorganized. Loving what I'm seeing with Android lollipop so far and the Nexus looks sick, but by the time my plan runs out the next one will be released in just a few months. Kinda bad timing. Still leaning towards it though

    Nexus 5. Been using it for a little while at this point, no problems what so ever. Plus, I'm running Android 5.0 which is neat.
