As an iPhone goober for the past few years, what's a new or upcoming phone I should fuck with? iPhones are stale as fuck and lack anything that wows a non fucktard.

My biggest complaints with iPhones are, cam sucks, sound sucks, can't go on any site with flash, doesn't support YouTube videos randomly for some reason, wanna watch a non apple video in the browser? Good luck. AT&T sucks, my phone randomly kicks me out of my browser for no reason and I have to reload pages to get the browser to work again. The iPod feature for some odd reasons reboots the same songs after you close the app and this is when I turn off the top 25 feature. I could go on and on but iPhones are out at this point, I need something new.

do people really buy 85 dollars worth of accessories immediately?

and why isnt the sale commissionable...you sold a phone at full retail..unless they only give a fuck about contractual phone sales
Yeah full retail phones don't do anything for my commission, only contracts. As for accessories you would be surprised on what people by. For instance yesterday I sold 7 contacts with $110 per in accessories. People buy Bluetooth speakers and life proof cases are in right now

HTC announces the One Mini today....available next month. It should have been called the One Lite, as it is .4 inches smaller in screen size, but its the specs that take the biggest hit: half the RAM, half the CPU, and less resolution. If they can sell this, off contract, for $300...they will be OK. No one is going to buy a phone with those specs off contract for $400. Hell, I can get a LG Spectrum 2 with the near same specs for $200 on eBay right now...with a better battery.

Waiting on pricing for the Motorla Moto X. Could be a sub $400 off contract phone, which would be worth it for the battery alone.

i kept my htc one. how can i get this on it?
all those emulators i have can be found on the play store.

you'll have to download the games yourself though off the the internet

epsxe for ps1 and androgens for sega genesis are good emulators

So a UK site is already listing the price of the HTC Mini...379 pounds. Thats roughly $530. If that is indeed the case, that is the biggest rip off in the history of rip offs. You can get a pure Android HTS One from Google for $70. Sorry, but all the things they took away from the HTC One to make the mini should warrant a MUCH higher price cut than a measly $70.

what the moto x is gonna look like



never really been a fan of motorola had the krzr and hated that shit
Motorola been making dope phones...the Razr Maxx still has the best battery on the market of any phone.

Looks like the cost of this phone will be around the $300-$400 mark off contract. If its closer to the $300, this thing will sell like hot cakes. Trust.

Anyone fuck with t-mobile? Curious how their new plans work out with being no contract and essentially making payments on the phone . It seems too good too be true.

im ready to end sprint...I'm out of contract and like to move on from this hellish nightmare


Also bloatware can be easily be removed by rooting the device

You end up paying more for the "Jump" program, becuase you are paying full price for the phone.

I know on Verizon, if you pay half the phone off in 6 months, you can upgrade but you have to give them the unpaid phone back...so its like leasing technically. And you have to be on a shared plan and doesn't include unlimited data plans.

im going to pass for right now after all ..t-mobile wanted like 400 to start a line up front

i was liking the idea of 99 for the phone and 100 for the plan start up...they wanted half of the phone cost on a down payment....now my credit isnt stellar...but its far far from bad...considering my bills are always paid on time...im in no hurry to get fucked on a plan especially on t-mobile

If you use a lot of Data stay the fuck away from Verizon, they got the dopest phones and hands down the best network but you need a rape shower after you figure out how much your bill really will cost you.. I got 30 gigs a month and I still go over and im on WiFi the majority of the time, I miss sprint so bad

I'm on the unlimited everything with T-Mobile which is nice not to worry about how much data i use.

Only gay shit they pulled is i was on some ancient contract 2 year plan, i called customer service to ask about their new unlimited no contract plan, they told me they can put me on that no charge. Only to find out my next bill I had a $400 migration charge ($200 per line). Called and complained for ever, finally they took off $150 but still I felt I got screwed since the bitch told me no charge.
