Some good deals going at bestbuy. $1 dollar iPhone 5s with smartphone trade in for sprint and verizon customers. My wife got a Galaxy S5 with trade in for 50 bucks; again any smartphone, and didn't pay activation fee.

The LG G3 looks like a bad ass phone.

So, some how I made a sweet, custom spiderweb on my phone. It's pretty legit.
A couple of questions - do you guys who use eBay to buy yourself a phone have pretty good success? Pros/cons? Anyone here own the newest Sony Xperia? |

I used Swappa instead of Ebay to sell my SG3 last Fall and was very happy with them. Check it out.
Also, check out the Nexus 5. |

I used to get a new phone typically within a 12 month period, but the latest versions of the Galaxy S in my opinion have been nominal at best. Still more than happy with my S3 - which is just starting to feel like it's hit the point where it's a bit lagging from time to time. So, I'm keen on what they bring out in the fall for the new Note 4, but if it's not a sizeable update, I am content on sitting it out until I find something that truly wows me.
Just not as worth it as the prices are creeping up to around $700-$800 oop.

I like the T Mobile and Nexs 5 combo. T Mobile began separating the cost of the phone from the cost of the service. The Galaxy 5 is $660. You can buy a used Galaxy IV for about $300. I don't think the new version is worth twice as much as a phone that was released a little less than a year ago.
I think that by separating the price of the phone people will start realizing that they are paying significantly more than the $150 down for their phones. Hopefully, this will put downward pressure on phone pricing. The Nexus 5 is also a great value at $349/399. It's specs are about 90% of the new phones being release for much less money. It also is the 1st to receive updates and does not have the bloatware. |

Any current opinions on the Moto X? My wife is in the market for an upgrade, but she isn't a fan of the huge 5" phones, and all of Sprint's other small phones are pretty underwhelming. The specs aren't as good as my Nexus 5 or the Galaxy 5, but I've read some reviews that suggest the Moto X does really well with some under-the-hood performance tweaks that make it a pretty decent option.
I've also seen lots of rumors about the X+1, but no firm release date, so I'm not sure if it'd be worth waiting or not. |
