Unlocked sprint iphone 5? What is unlocked mean when it comes to CDMA phones? I think it means you can use it for sprint or boost mobile. That's it. You made a few mistakes:
1. CDMA phones worth less as far as resell value goes compare to GSM phones (assuming same phone)
2. Now you'll have to deal with a smaller screen
3. You're stuck with only 14gb of storage, yes you won't really have a chance to touch that other 2gb
4. You'll be suffering from the data speed of sprint...this is probably the biggest loss (assuming you went from t-mobile to sprint)
just my opinion and why I would NEVER have made a trade like that.

Why y'all think that was the worst deal ever ?
Actually I think his iPhone 5 is also capable of GSM. That's one difference I believe between the 4 and the 5. So this can be used on TMobile, At&t, etc....

Why would you come ask our opinion on your trade? If you really want my opinion, I'll say you got burned and the other guy got one hell of a deal. If you want someone to praise your decision to get rid of the Note 2 for an iPhone, then you're in the wrong place buddy. It ain't that you switched from the Note to the iPhone, because I get it, the Note 2's size isn't for everyone, it's the fact that you left Android for iOS, that was your mistake, but I'm sure you'll realize what you've done sooner or later.
For me? Its the stupidest thing someone could do.
Just being honest. Not being rude.
Haha you got burned

I liked the iPhone 5. But I just traded it back for the Note 2 it's AT&T though I'm going to have to unlock it . It wasn't a bad trade because I knew I could get it back again lol y'all should know that
Well good deal...Youll know what type of responses youll b getting here, however by u askin, it feels like you regret dng the trade. Also see what kind of responses youll get, if u ask this in an iphone 5 forums!!!

For a person like me who has had every iPhone that has come out so I have been with iOS for years but I'm glad I made the switch to android and I'm glad I got my note 2 face it apple wants to restrict it's customers where android listens to it's customers so good for you for getting the note 2 back

1 never trade android for ios that's going backwards. That's like a prisoner say I'm free now lock me back up. And 2 never trade a GSM phone for cdma same freedom principle applies. But to each his own. My wife miss her iPhone do much so I got her a Verizon iPhone she; wasted but literally 1 day with it for something as simple as buying a ringtone she said hell no take it back. Point being as stated before complete lack of freedom hardware and software wise.

Is trading a Tmobile galaxy s2 for a thrill 4g plus 100$ is that a good deal? is it worth it?
I say no. If your on tnobile and you by that then ur gon be on edge. Plus I heard the 3D ggives people headaches and onr guy threw up. And the user interface is pretty bad and the cameras as well aren't as good as our phone is. And I would think he should give another 200 instead. The phones lack of 4G, user intrface is rubbish, and the 3d giving people headaches is unacceptable.

I have owned every Android phone that T-MOUSA has ever released and by far this is the best of them all in every sense. This is the first Android phone that is buttery smooth from the box. I also have always hated Manufacturer UI overlays but have grown very fond of TW 4 or what ever it is called.
Ofcourse this is my personal opinion.

absolutely agree....This phone stock is badass and everything just works on top of that is buttery smooth. this is the first stock rom that I stayed on and said wow I could get used to this. I stayed on it for quite a while but then had to venture off to cm10 also our development is getting better by the day. Our cm10 based roms are pretty much daily drivers which is awesome cuz a lot of phones either have audio issues or data issues...again everything pretty much just works. The camera on this phone is so amazing especially in low light that definitely wowed me. To sum it all up it is the best phone on the market imo and the best t-mobile has ever had.... Just get it!!! No right now op get in your car and head to the nearest t-mobile store and grab this bad boy

The rest of the thread kinda caps the overall view of the phone and I'd be lieing to say anything other than perfection. Like mentioned a few times already its power and clarity is just amazing and it even makes you wonder if its even worth rooting from first impressions as this community has such an obvious influence over the systems functionality.
Multitasking is a breeze, it handles everything you throw at it and still offers more when you ask for it. Im glad I bought it as much as everyone else here does.

I've already upgraded from my et4g twice since nov. First went to the s3 now the note 2. Definitely wasnt disappointed with either. I actually just sold my s3 for $100 cuz I busted the screen. So the buyer got a month old s3 for $100 + $130 for new screen = $230 they got a sweet deal they're a member here too that I know outside of xda and they were upgrading from the et4g maybe they'll stop by and chime in on the difference and if they are happy or not with the s3. The s4 is still 6 months or so out. Its estimated date to go on sale for the international version is sometime in June and US 1-2 months later so youre looking at july or august b4 US carriers will have em

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 have a note 2 and I love it I came from the e4gt and had used my upgrade to get the note now if the S4 really calls out my attention which I'm sure it will I will sell the note and put in the differences and pay full price now if you think you can do that do it If you're a tech junkie a don't see the problem of hesitating on doing something wrong for yourself just do what you want bro.

This has tablet like features that the gs4 might not have. Of course we really won't know until the final spec sheet is released but either way it won't be this size. And it is beautiful guys!

Geez Garwynn wish I thought of that lol! Not sure if it would've worked though. I'm still happy with my Note for $199.

Oh I did. Amazon had the note 2 for $170 when added to a family plan. I couldn't resist. It was worth the he'll I for from the missus.
What's great is all the wonderful people from this forum (like garwynn) that are over there now.
And there is nothing out like this phone now. Nor will the s4 match it. I don't think I'll ever be able to use a smaller phone with no spen again.

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
