which will be your next handset after i9300?

1. S4/s5
2. Nexus4/4
3. note 3
4. Other android phone
5. Other phone?
Id intended to wait 2 years until I upgraded but 1gb of ram is working out to be ridiculously low and basically, while ideally id love to change to wp8 I'm addicted to android.... I'm waiting to see what the final specs of the note 3 and nexus 5 will be, and choose between the two. I'm thinking note 3 is the strongest contender as it will most likely be a powerhouse but pure android is tempting too

it's not been released yet

The Google Note 3

Note 3 for sure

nexus 4 or htc one..

HTC ONE ...

Note 3

I`am thinking of Note3 as everybody, but still waiting for Motorola X phone.
And hoping for phone with IP67 (water and dust proof), big battery and possibilities above S3 AND most important - with dock station with i can use my phone as home computer.

Hopefully soon an Oppo Find 5 or it's follow-up by the end of this year.
It's screen, sound and UI create the ultimate user-experience I honestly find unmatched by any other phone.
The only reason it's probably unknown to you is it's lack of marketing in comparison to the iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S4.
It's something you guys should really check out! :good:

I personally suggest you to buy Google Motorola Moto G. It is not yet released in India. Even though it costs only Rs.13k - 14k. Wait for it and buy it. Currently only little developments have started on xda (I suppose) but is expected to soon pace up. This phone is expected to release in 3rd week of January, 2014.
Press thanks if I helped.

thanks aaa lot yar for ur valuable information...!

Go for Sony or Google. I was once for for Samsung, but I would say Samsung has turned a bit against developers (remember SGY egl drivers). But Google and Sony are being very supportive to developers.

then again, they dont seem to be using Broadcom chips or other manufaturers who are "closed sources"
HnnnnnnnnmnHmmmmmmmmGpuuuuuuuuuuuuu

general tip: don't get phones with broadcom chips

I suggest you buying a Google Nexus phone. They do have a very smooth performance and they can also be found at a reasonable price from Google Play (only at U.S.). They're the perfect phones to experiment with. And the best is that they receive the newest Android from Google. Search at Google.
They're very easy to root and are compartible with the most ROMS. That means that they are developer friendly.

Samsung Galaxy Advance S
Or
Nokia Lumia 720

my suggestion is think twice before buying the phones go only with developer friendly devices go and read the user opinions in gsmarena
my hard suggestion is dont go for "broadcom" devices i.e galaxy grand, s2plus, s duos 2, ths all are broad***....
GO for sony xperia M best phone with adreno320 gpu or wait for MOTO G.....

yes i agree with you but cm has bugs on grand due to close source of broadcom & also it has poor performance on games but new grand 2 is lot better

Sony xperia l is also a better option

Just bought a S3 again :)

Bought the S3 when it was originally launched back in 2012 & was sold on in May of last year, I've decided while the price of the i9300 is now cheap enough it make for a great 2nd phone to use at work ect, with my Note 3 still being my primary phone.
My previous work phone was an 8GB Moto G which now with my brother, as he was desperate for a new phone.
One thing i really miss on the S3 was the camera & how decent it was with music aswell plus having both an SD card slot I can now cram it full of music again oh and i can now also use my Galaxy Gear with it aswell :good::laugh:.
One questions though.
Does the 4.3 update add KNOX as i plan on rooting and trying out a couple of custom roms, something i darn't do with the Note 3 as i don't want it to knacker my warranty.

Knox is not there in all s3 4.3 Roms

You've pretty much just answered your own question. If you want Vanilla Android get a Nexus.

+1 Grab the Nexus 5. I myself prefer that AOSP look over anything else.

My next device will be a sony. They are so good with development on Android. I would get a nexus after my note but going down in screen size isn't gonna happen.
I should have gotten that ultra haha. I don't use my camera for flash anyways
dont forget the thanks button if I helped out!!

But I worked with G2 , such a comfortable phone. Nexus camera is poor! But the design is perfect. Z Ultra is the biggest and lovely. But I have xperia sola and t and SP , they have poor quality on screen and camera. I really dont know
Btw the cm is for all phones right now exept my f**cking Note 3 exynos

This has nothing to do with this forum at all, this forum is here to ask questions and get help with the Samsung Galaxy Note 3.
Asking what you would buy instead of the Note 3 Exynos doesn't excuse the thread.
Thank you.

I've also just recently (5 days ago) bought used sm n9005 just because it has many roms and development is very active and also because Note 3 is very powerful device even after 3 years now

I tell you what...
Note 3 can use features n4..n5..s7..n7 n anything els by custom roms porting..
But can you imaging when n4..n5..s7..or n7 used custom rom port note 3??
Very shame...hahaha

I bought a used 9005 from eBay a month ago, for 150€ and haven't regretted it. I'm using it as my daily driver with Phronesis 4.0. Best 150€ I've spent in ages!!
