Someone wants to trade me a T-Mobile Note 2 new condition with $100 and someone else wants to trade me a White IPhone 5 and $70. Which one should I do?? I need the money that's why I'm doing one but I don't know which one I should do. Help me out with some serious opinions on which one please.

IPhone 5 because it will continue to receive support and updates from apple for another 2-3 years, the note 2 will become forgotten about when the note 3 comes out

Definitely the Note 2. And that trade doesn't make sence. it should be more like Note 2 and 100 or iPhone 5 and 125.
So I should get the Note 2? Alright I think I'm going to then

I would also recommend the note 2 but make sure you put your sim in there first to make sure they havent filed an insurance claim.
I would also call tmobile to inform them that you are getting the phone frombthe registered account holder so that once you leave they dont call and claim it was lost or stolen.
This happens all the time especially with craigslist transactions.
Guy sells/trades phone, calls tmobile pays $175 for insurance, gets new phone, buyer gets stuck with a bad imei.
Just a heads up
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
What he said ^^ with the new installment plans if the guys doesnt pay off the phone you will be stuck in a worse situation than u are now. Get the imei and call tmo make sure its paid off
As far as note 2 vs iphone 5... you may want to consider size... I tried the note 2 and gave up after a few months is its definately a niche device... the size of the iphone is way more realistic, but if you're like me and must have android then get the note, if money is an issue im sure you wont have a problem getting an s3 plus 125

IPhone will continue to receive support from apple, like software updates. The screen may be small and iOS may seem dull but give it a shot. The iPhone plus 150 cash is a great deal. 4g lte won't work

Smh...regardless I can get $250-$300 on Craigslist.. I know I know ..duh. But not everyone will know that.
Why would HTC pay you market value for a phone when they make phones? The guy on craigslist who would buy your phone doesnt have millions of phones at their disposal.
With that in mind, its a generous offer.

haha you can never win with those guys!
This would be worthwhile for someone who doesn't want to deal with people on craigslist. I can see why some would not. I don't have time to answer 50 emails all asking if I'll take $150 for my immaculate-condition phone that is worth much more.
Luckily I can ask my wife to handle it usually but not everyone can.

CDMA phones for you. Lose value so much quicker. My GSM was $175 offered from HTC.
That is a solid price. GSM won't fetch much more than $200 since you can get a new one for $350

I'm getting the Note but not for any reason other than I prefer Samsung to LG
plus LeBron James has it
<< mindless consumer >>
My contract doesn't end for a while but I wouldn't get either. I'm holding out till next year. I want to get a phone that will support 800mhz LTE and 1900mhz, possible the 2500,2600 band as well. With some newer battery technology.
I buy most my phones off contract used once they drop in value anyways. I'll probably end up getting what ever good deal is around by then.
Note 2 > LG OG. I just upgraded to the sgs3 til next month when I get my note 2. My dad bought the note and gave me his sgs3 which was only ~2 months old so I'm not complaining free phone and still have my upgrade on dec1 to use on the note 2. The note is definitely worth the upgrade its one badass device, has ridiculous battery life with the 3100mah and no lag even when multitasking in the dual pane mode.

私は神の罰です。
I still can't believe I'm saying this, but I reallllly like the optimus G. Ever since our store got our stock in I can't put the demo down. The screen and processor alone are what's winning me over.
LG kind of won me over in a small way recently, and that's because our LG viper got it's ICS upgrade shortly before the Optimus launch, and in the process, brought it's UI up to match the Optimus and Mach exactly. That shows me motivation and I like it.
But the end I'm being held back for two reasons: it's already behind on software; this typically isn't a problem for me but it is in this case because of the 2nd reason: the boot loader is locked. If there won't be any official unlock, or if devs unlock it but it's piece-mealed together, I'm not going to get it. It's one of the many reasons why I've stuck with Samsung, not having to go through all the BS with boot loaders and such.

All that is a concept of a sgs4. Nothing real, nothing but a fantasy. Please don't get panties in a bunch because then you will be disappointed when it is actually released.
Yea lol, fan concept =//= factual stuff.

I have a mint note and I was offered a brand new note 2 for my note and $200. I know this has been asked to death, but I primarily want to hear from note 2 owners who upgraded from the original note. I figure $300 is the going rate for a note in my condition, and since I'm not due for an upgrade for another year this is my best shot at getting a note 2.

Yes do it. I went from note 1 to 2 and it really is an upgrade. Once you learn the ins ands outs its a helluva better phone. Not to mention battery life ive never had a smartphone come close to the life this thing gets. Anyway im not gonna get into all the reasons u should get it cuz you can read that all over the forums. Just get the phone then u can report back that I was right

My Epic 4G died a few days ago and I had an upgrade. I chose the Note 2 over the S4. Battery life, bigger screen (to make up for the loss of my keyboard) and SPen plus other things that I cant put into words sold me. I used both side by side and just loved the Note2. When we get 4.2.2 I think that will make the note 2 even more awesome...IMHO. Now I have TWRP on it and trying out ROMs...Loving the Note 2. :good:

I don't think the megapixels have much to do with low light as the quality of the sensor itself and f.stop and aperture. I'd much rather a lower MP with better sensor and F.stop than all the megapixels in the world.
But i get your point nonetheless.
