New Phone Time! (Sprint)

Droid I would go Samsung.

iPhone I would go 5 and jail break it. I have a jail broken 4, took 5 mins to do and hasn't caused any problems. All the little things you wish you could tweak about the iPhone can be done on a jail broken phone. I even get free tethering!

Samsung - Galaxy Note II 4G L900 Mobile Phone - Sprint Cdma

 It's a huge Mobile phone/sort of notepad thingy. My husband is going to get it and I think he will regret his decision. 

I love my Samsung Galaxy.

I saw that and I like "big" but that think is monstrous.  I techy guy calls them Phablets...  (phone/tablet).  If I cant get it into my pocket comfortably (with a case, which makes it bigger), it's to big for me.  I already have a tablet, I just need a phone.

Disclaimer, I work for Sprint...

Given what you've shared so far, the Note 2 would be the only other thing I'd suggest you look at besides a Galaxy S3/S4. If the Note 2 is too honkin' big for you (I have one and while I've adjusted quite well, I can see it might not be for everyone), the S4 will be more future proof and the S3 will be a great phone too that is much cheaper right now if that is a consideration.

Oh, one other question, how much do you depend on your 4G/Wimax connection? I don't think LTE has been rolled out to Las Vegas yet, so you will be without a 4G connection for a while with a S3/S4/Note2. 

Just looked at the sprint page.  So the S4 and SIII stand out.  One is free and one is 150 bucks.  worth it?  As for 4g, I don't pay for the access, so I have lived with 3g and wifi wich is 90% of my day.  (at home or office, both with wifi).

I'm not COMPLETELY against the note if it's a lot better overall. 

Any other deals going on now?  I saw some popup about $100 bucks off.  I would do the note for $100 bucks all said and done (not including the other taxes/charges).

Friend of mine has the Note as well and that thing is simply not a phone, its a 5" tablet!

Funny how 10 years ago "the next generation" phone kept getting smaller and smaller... now we're going bigger and bigger!

This is the one thing I HATE...there is no 4g LTE connection here yet, so I am stuck with 3g (yet PAY for 4g...THANKS! :-)).

When I got my phone, they said 9 months...so this summer, I should think.

At any rate, I still LOVE my phone, and even the 3g is better on it (and better than DH's 4g motorola/ATT phone, honestly).

I have Sprint and recently traded in my EVO for an iPhone.  As much as I have tried to avoid the Mac hype, they are just better.  I can't believe I said that...   I really like it.   I liked having almost zero learning curve, since I have iPods and an iPad. 

I ultimately made the choice because I wanted to have a phone I could use Internationally and the iPhone is the only Sprint offering that has a removable sim card.    Just something to consider if you travel.

You can't go wrong with the Samsung Galaxy.
