How much "buy-back" money for the S2? Maybe buy-back money will offset some of the contract buy-out fee and then its worth getting. I love my E4GT but I could get much better pics of my kids with the S3.
I see yours and raise you 40!

I'm kinda on the fence about it.
I played with a customer's that brought one in from pre-order the other day. While the new Nature UX looks amazing and the device is smooth as butter, the size is a deal breaker for me. It's too large for my hands (twss). I almost fumbled and dropped it. :x
I'll probably stick with my Epic Touch for now and wait for ICS kernel sources so that I can get amazeballs battery life on AOKP. I'm rather enjoying this ROM.

I haven't compared the actual pics and videos but essentially the s3 has the same camera as the s2, just faster and with more options. People should really take the time to read the posts in the s3 section. Many people are reporting issues that shouldn't be happening with a new phone. Many are discovering that it really is just a s2.5. It's also experiencing lots of LOS (loss of service). If you REALLY want one, it would be wise to wait until the problems get ironed out in a real update. I'm not talking about the little security update that's going to get pushed to the sprint version on sunday.

I said all this once specs were announced it's the lte version of the s2. It's basically the same phone. The performance difference shouldn't be noticed. It certainly isn't worthy of my 2 year renewal as it's an equal gen phone to what we have now. Besides who can't wait 4 months for the nexus

From someone who has one, it's well worth it. It's nowhere near "basically the same".
sprint is releasing an LTE version arent they? I dont think LTE will be available until 2013 in my area. I cant see knowingly upgrading to lose 4g until the phone could be almost a year old.

Maybe well worth it if you are not coming from an s2. Upgrading to the s3 means you can't upgrade to a next gen phone. Next gen phones come out in q4 for Christmas season. It's like having an iPhone 4 and upgrading to a 4s sure it's nicer and more refined, but upgrades for most aren't yearly anymore and most would just wait for a true upgrade rather than some polishing.

Wirefly. Lol if you're upgrading you can get the gnex for like $99.
i have a corporate acct so i get a boat load of discounts and upgrades are enabled every 6 months. i haven't paid more than $199 for a device since my Omnia back in 2009.
so far no issues AT ALL.
already rooted and flashed AOKP and its smooth as butter.

Agree, just wait till the S4 and anyway, 4G LTE is not completely finished. You can wait till a better phone and better service comes out. Just my thought
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
More or less, I'd probably stay with the E4GT. The S3 doesn't really have much over the E4GT, to warrant the 'upgrade.'
The single thing that stands out with the S3 is probably NFC and a bit larger screen. If you can get past those two, then you're fine. Just stick with the E4GT.
It sounds silly to say but the s3 is already "old", with the note 2 on its way to sprint in the near future, a plethora of nexus devices coming soon and the s4 being launched sometime in February its probably best to wait at this point.

To be honest. you should wait. If you have already some kind of wimax coverage, it'd be far wiser to wait for LTE to deploy into your area first or youll be stuck on a slow as molasses 3g network. If you don't have wimax then it's your choice but I'd just wait and see what nexus devices come out first.
Hi, just wondering if there are any loopholes that have worked for anyone in the past.
I'm really interested in either the Nexus 4 or Note 2. I love the S2 but I dont have an upgrade until Jan 2014 and these new phones are just so intriguing. I definitely don't want to pay a non contract price for these phones, but was hoping to sell my S2 and use it to buy a new phone at hopefully a good price.
Any advice?
not sure of any loop holes. most companys make sure there are none.
i say sell the s2 and get the n4. with the price being so low its worth it.
I looked up on the sprint buyback program and they'll give you $85 for the e4gt.
Well I have three phones mine wife and daughter wife never likes upgrading so I get her upgrades with mine not cheap but it works

That's at the moment. Look at the Gnex. It was released GSM first then Verizon got it, and then Sprint. I don't think Google is that dumb to cut Verizon from getting the Nexus and Sprint has gotten the other Nexus devices aside from the Nexus One.

I love the hardware of my epic touch but I know we can do better in regards of software. Jb leak is proof of that and what is likely to come. However I am getting tired of running gb. Having a nexus 7 tablet doesn't help my case when i get constant updates as soon as good drops new source. I am hoping I can hold out for the jb update or even a newer leak. But if not I would love to find a way to get a sg3 for cheap. And I don't really want to add another line.

I used to always buy my phones out of contract, I would ebay my phone, get paid apply that $ towards my new phone and ship the old one out. I would usually ship the next day so I wasn't holding up my buyer.
These days I just buy from Craigslist. Picked this phone up for 240 around mid summer, I think.

I agree with this, I bought my sgs2 in June for $220 off contract (used). It came in great shape and working perfectly. I'm thinking I'll keep buying phones this way - just wait for them to be ~9 months old and you can get them for the upgrade price. This way if a new phone drops that I just have to have I'm always ready with the upgrade. Also if I somehow kill my current phone I don't have to worry about carrying insurance, just use my upgrade on whatever's out.
The only thing better is direct from Google pricing, which I may switch to but I will loose some coverage in my state by leaving CDMA so I haven't decided on that yet.

I've heard that people sold their current phones on Craigslist, used that money towards buying out the rest of their contract then upgrade.

Hah, I can assure you, after 20 phone calls, they don't give a **** about their customers.
I've had my account open with sprint since 1991.
There are 5 lines on the account.
They have made ~$50,000 from my family.
Yea, no, I will switch to anything better as soon as possible.
I got the unlimited family plan last June and got the Epic for my wife and I. This family plan is now turning into a business plan as I'm getting phones for my guys too.
My issue is that I am a tech junkie and I am starting to feel phone envy with all these guys getting the note 2. I have another person to get a phone for and I'm realizing that instead of waiting another year and six months to upgrade I can do it now and pass on this epic.
The problem is that I love this community, and would like to start putting out some roms for a group that I think is going to be hurting for devs shortly. While I'm pretty sure the note 2 is not lacking in this area.
Am I worrying about nothing? Is everyone leaving this phone soon anyway? If I don't use this opportunity am I going to be the only one here in a year? :sigh:
I just feel like it's too early to leave now, but will be too late later on.

Reasonable to believe when S4 is released and if the specs live up to its hype, majority of users will consider the move. I am considering and upgrade and may not be on this phone at the end of the year. Only because it will be 2 years and trying to get the family on 1 cycle is the plan. Its an opportunity you should highly consider

That was the original plan, just wait it out, and get the latest and greatest, but my guy needs a phone now, so it's upgrade now or in a year and half. Other option is to use my best buy buy back to help with the cost of an out of contract phone when the s4 comes out.

I think a lot of its are in it till the s4. This is a great community though and I feel your pain. The note has a lot going for it but I have a feeling the s4 is going to knock it out of the park. We always need good devs and would hate to see you go. But do what you have to. I'm sure you'll be happy either way. Although with all these 4.2 rooms coming out and jb ota around the corner at some point soon this phone will be hanging around for quite a while. Good luck with your decision.

I love this phone but if I had LTE I would upgrade now. I also think S4 will be my next phone since it should drop around the time the Network Vision upgrades start here. Bottom line do whatever makes you happy. The community will carry on and more devs will jump onboard since our phone is cheap now.

I'm an indirect dealer for Sprint, ATT and Verizon; I get to play with a lot of phones. You could not be more accurate. Not only is the Note 2 in a class if its own. It really is a "phablet". It doesnt need to be held close to the face, yet can fit in a pocket.
More importantly, the execution of Touchwiz is remarkable- its usefulness is beyond comparison, justifying every pixel of the huge display and proving it is not a gimmick.
As far as the E4GT goes, its second-life as a premium Virgin/Boost handset should prevent development from drying up.

Anyone sticking around for the s5(or whatever the next s phone in the series is?) I got this phone a year late, and since everybody else is getting the s4, I was wondering if anyone is still gonna hold out for the s5.
This would be VERY cool if this is indeed a "leak." http://www.itechpost.com/articles/9801/20130527/samsung-galaxy-s5-specs-leaked-early.htm
What do you think? What will the next galaxy phone have? Will it be worth it to stick around?

Lol s5 leaks? The gs4 JUST came out like a month ago... but these seem like somewhat reasonable specs...

I'll be on the s2 for a year in September, and it'll be another year after that before I am eligible for upgrade.
By then, the s4 will probably be free, so that's probably my next phone.

Had this phone for about a year and a half. Don't see myself upgrading anytime soon. This phone has not lagged once on me and I have not seen either S3 or s4 as upgrade-worthy

Ditto here. My mom just got the S4, despite my protestations. She doesn't even know how to use half the features on her old phone. I tried to talk her into getting the S3 for 1/4 of the price, but she wouldn't listen.
My upgrade is up Oct 1 and I plan to get whatever is best at that time but nothing as large as the note 3. I think a 5" screen size is perfect for an all around device. Possibly the LG Optimus G2 or Motorola X. Still waiting for news on both.
I skipped the S3 b/c I think it wasn't a major-enough upgrade. But I got the S4 right when the preorders went live. I'll be using my upgrade for the S5 when it comes out, most likely. Kept my S2 as my backup phone and mom & wifey's still rocking the S2.
Im going to get my s4 tomorrow but im still torn between that and the note 2....

Windows phone, this android stuff is getting a little boring.
Just put girlfriend on my plan, and i got her the s3 for $30 on amazon. She keeps asking me "how do i _____" But it is one smooth phone! my upgrade is up next may, and you better believe im going to save money for the beefed up s5. (unless something else better comes out, which might be the new motorola phone. but i really enjoy sammys!)
Thank you woody for seeing the light. Because you just use android as you would an iphone. I bet you are not unlocking the full customization of the phone. Yeah for you maybe go simple. Such as iphone or microsoft. Hell even a flip phone. Goodbye now

If I ever bought a phone with a display bigger than 5 inches, please PUNCH MY FACE.

Great news on the design, but no removeable battery is pretty much a deal breaker. How does Samsung not realize what their best features are? Seriously, the removable battery and SD card slot are the core design features that separates their product from the crap Apple puts out.

I like how right after the article it has a link that says "Innovation Is Still At Apple's Core" sure it is... the only thing they've done since Jobs died is copy Android features.
Team Rejectz
my contract ends in october so if the g5 is reported to be within 6 months of that ill probably go with it, if not then ill probably get a s4 or htc one
