Toddler threw wife's Sensation in a coffee cup - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

We do have a subsidized phone available through T-Mo, so I'm inclined to use that.
GS3 seems like the obvious choice, but I'm loathe to hand her electronics destroying hands a new phone (this is her 3rd phone in just over 2 years. The others were similarly destroyed).
I'd be very tempted to hand her the GN and keep the GS3
How annoyed am I going to be with the GS3?
Other ideas?
And why couldn't she have waited a month until the Galaxy Note 2 came out?

Why not get her an older phone like the defy lol

Defy as suggested or.. dare I say an iphone with LifeProof (waterproof) case.. Honestly, no pun intended, but people like that should not be owning a smartphone. They are fragile devices and cannot take much of a beating.

Cheap flip phone/blackberry/low end android phone off of eBay until she learns to be responsible with an expensive phone. Save the subsidies for yourself.

Agreed. Check Craigslist too.
Honestly the Lifeproof case is a good idea too.

Same thing happened to me. My wife broke 3 phones and a laptop in just over a year. She now has an old flip phone and only uses the desktop computer. Electronics are way too expensive to be careless with.

It's a fairly new desktop. She actually prefers to use it. It gets expensive replacing electronics every other month. I wish I could somehow force her to use only Internet Explorer. That would be the ultimate punishment.

Perhaps you could look around and checks phones that will have a nice resale value right now. Not sure what choices you have with tmobile. A gs3 could be had for $200 upgrade price, flipped for $500+ and then buy a nice little mid range expendable phone that will get the job done. Or maybe buy two. This method has it's goods and bads, but if a smartphone is really needed for phone amd text, and the extras for distraction/minimal tasks and getting on the web for fun, reading or tips on breasts hurt while breastfeeding then this might be a good path. Otherwise, get a nice little unlocked nokia or moto for cheap until toddler destruction improves.

Or a defy as suggested. My friend accidently dropped his off the top of a 2 story building while taking a picture. He walked down, picked it up, entered a caption and posted it (he was using instagram). There's just a little nick in one of the corners now.
Also it's waterproof, so that helps with the drink issues.

The key word I see here is toddler, give the toddler that busted sensation. That way he/she has their own phone to dunk in coffee. The other thing is to teach your wife the proper way to deal with water damage, ie battery pull and rice.

And teach her not to put her phone in front of a baby. And tell her she won't like it the next time it happens.
Will the next nexus have a longer screen?

why does she need a phone in the kitchen in the first place?

Indestrubile case for retarded girl friend.

Ok, she broke the second Atrix. The first one she dropped and cracked the screen so I got a rubber case for the replacement.
This time she left it on top of the car and it got ran over by a truck.
Since our health care provider doesn't cover brain transplant, can anyone recommend some kind of industrial war proof hard case or something for the Atrix?
EDIT: Sorry for the bad spelling. Her retardation is contagious.

get one of those helmets that you see some mentally retarded people wear for the phone. otherwise, i think you should... wait for it... wait for it... keep on having patience. i mean you either have to deal with it, because you're obviously dogging her for being "retarded" and staying with her, so that makes you the guy with the retarded girl or you're just going to have to love every phone she breaks. i mean love her for who she is.
...Are you being serious? >.>
Go in the house and smash the stove with a hammer everytime she does something wrong. Worked for me.
But in regards to the case;
I work in a factory operating an oversized grab forklift. I have the otter box defender case, and have dropped it out of the forklift all together heaps of times, no physical damage. Though, its bulky and not very lady like.
I stick by my original advice to take a hammer to her stove though.
I have the otter box commuter and love it. Its just like the ballistic except the commuter has covers for all the ports.

I've got that, broke several phones on it. When it's EOL (and they can't fix it) they give you credit toward a new phone. Killer deal.
Edit: I also have an Otterbox on mine but that's only because I worked in the field for a long time, losing your phone mid-day kind of sucks.

It destroys the EVO.
<<<<former EVO owner.
Absolutely a good buy.
Its a great phone very responsive and for me does everything i could ever want/ need in a phone. That being said if you have the extra cash go for it because its the best phone sprint has out right now, but if the price you'll be paying for it off- contract is steep for you I suggest holding off on it because newer phones are coming very soon
Definitely worth it as mentioned before. The xda marketplace has better deals for the e4gt but they don't pop up too often. Expect to pay a good amount of money but it is a great device.

I have no complaints about both but I have heard others complain about them. The speaker could be better but I like it. I never owned the evo but compared to the evo 3d (which I still regularly use), the E4GT has both a better earpiece and speaker.
Here's a no nonsense review of the E4GT from flossy carter. Enjoy the show haha
E4GT Review FlossyCarter
My friends wife just got the White E4GT like 2 days ago. From her own words it's been one of the first phones shes been able to setup herself. Shes not very tech savvy (reason she has her husband or me to help at times) but so far she LOVES the phone. I'll be rooting his this week but going to leave his wife's phone alone for the time being. She really has no need for root and honestly wouldn't know what to do with it anyways . But they got the E4GT after they had a chance to use/play with mine for awhile and they love them.
Coming from HTC hero , id say worth the buy! Wanted the galaxy nexus but was like eff it and took the chance been by accessories i'm on it every minute
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
I'm four days into my SGS2, upgraded from the SGS1. I am pissed I waited so long! The S2 is a far superior product. It's faster, cleaner, thinner and just feels right when held in your hand. The screen is clearer, ntm bigger. It supports call recording (#1 biggest reason I bought the phone) and has a nicer camera. Longer battery life, thinner than the S1.
I spent $395 on an eBay auction for one new in the box, never touched. Lotta money, but well spent, imho. And I can sell my S1 + accessories for $200.
Better on everything the epic the evo is a good phone but once you get an epic you will see but on another note with the speed phones are being manufactured and with a year left I would save your money the epic will be mothballs by then and you could have an even better phone
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
I'd say buy one on eBay and sell your old one to help cover the cost; I've been on Sprint for less than 2 years and the E4GT will be my fifth phone (Samsung Moment, Samsung Transform, Samsung Epic 4g, EVO 3D, E4GT) - whenever I see something I want, I find it on eBay.
I won't even qualify for my first paid upgrade until April 1, but I plan to save that for the phone that I see and decide I can't live without the instant it comes out.
YMMV, but I paid ~$340 for a mint/used E4GT with original box & accessories; the better shape they're in, the more they go for but mid-$300's seems pretty average.
Good luck!
Totally worth it! Best phone hands down on sprint. You will love it.
I just bought one for a friend off craigslist, like new, mint, for $200. Just make sure is you go used, call sprint and ask if the esn is clear, AND if the phone is attached to any account.
There is also a couple g threads going around.. Get a airwave for free, and another to use it to get a upgrade price phone. Might want to look into that.

Without a doubt, best phone. Stay on top of rooted ROMs and it's the best. But even on Stock ROM this thing is tops.
Camera rocks. Speed is amazing. Could do better with GPS, but it works. Ear piece speaker is very loud. Very few issues.
The build quality is far superior to the Evo line. People complain about the plastic but it's super light and thin. No dust or light leakage problems.

I do not think people are going to realize how big the Note really is from that commercial and anyone who thinks it is the same size as your larger phone will be in for a big surprise.
I wear my phone on a belt clip and for some reason I do not see that happening with the Galaxy note. I would like to know for the people who plan on getting the Note how they plan on carrying it.

john they are much different. this is like a pro level stylus that uses magnetic input. almost like on the touch pro type of screen accurate only now it is also a cap screen instead of resistive.
Reminds me a bit of the Motorola Xoom commercial last year. Although this one rags on Apple fans more blatantly.
Like others, I think the Galaxy Note is just too big. Even the E4GT is pushing it for me, although it's thinness and light weight help a bit. Plus I would not carry the stylus with me, which defeats one of the purposes of buying the Note. It looks like a cool phone but just isn't for me.

I cant believe i am saying this but I am honestly considering the Note...yeah its BIG but thin, and yes its not for everybody...hopefully itll ship with ICS by the time it gets to Sprint, and will be rooted within the first 24 hours LoL
Haha, thanks OP....Somehow I missed the commercial last night, so this was the first time I had a chance to see it (see it, that is, on a FULLY working version of CM9 on my freaking Nook Color ereader....goddang, I love Android)....
Anyway, I don't know what I was expecting from it, but I wasn't really expecting it to be about the Note, and I DEFINITELY wasn't expecting Samsung to bring back that most epic song by The Darkness: I give it an all thumbs up rating.

Lol, its not a bad deal i think. The mugen battery is 100 the phone is still 600 brand new, the case is 35. I may lower it to $300 though for all of it.
I've been lucky enough to play with the note II daily at work and I have to say that the phone is awesome in every sense. Much better than the GS3. I'm very tempted.

I am quite disapointed in the way they handled my advice, I wasn't asking for service or a replacement, I was just letting them know I was not happy with the quality of my device. So I think I am done with Samsung for a while, I love my nexus 7 so I will be going Google for the time being.

You'll never buy another Samsung product? No blu ray player? Or a nice LED TV from them.

NEVER!!!
I had their plasma, paid ridiculous high price 11 years ago, still going very strong. Windows OS Focus phone, great quality. But now after knowing their problem, how they treat me. I will even persuade others from buying their products.:crying:
Lol I thought the whole time the cracks were part of the bezel hahaha I have 4 of them one in each corner. What a coincidence lol but yeah they don't bother me. I always have my phone in a case, but yeah I totally thought it was part of the design and I noticed the bezel is all uneven around the screen... Some gaps bigger than others... Samsung always has issues on their bezels.... The Note was the worst. Not OCD about it. But I did notice it

I used to baby my phone, but I couldn't find a good screen protector that worked with my case.
I love using the matte-finished screen protectors that are reusable (I'm using the Mochi brand). I'm still very careful about my phone, though.
Noticed a fresh crack appeared in bottom, on top of USB. Looks like whole bezel will fall apart.
That sucks. So far, no scratches after about 8 months use. Good to be on the lookout for them though!
