Need A Phone!

Recon97
Go to solution Solved by Thorium19,

Nexus 5 is a bad choice too.It has non removeable battery,get hot,some bugs like not showing notifications and calls.

Galaxy tab pro 8.4 has a leather back.Samsung galaxy s4 has better features than nexus 5.Did you really touched samsung phones or just heard some bad expiriences?

Is speak from the experience of owning a samsung. The S4, if you install cyanogen mod isn't too bad, but the build materials IMO leaves something to be desired. Also non removable batteries aren't bad, HTC have non removable batteries in their phones and there's no issue with that, I even own one now. The galaxy tab pro 8.4 is a tablet, not a phone, with the ability to buy a cellular version so you can surf the internet whilst not in a wifi range. And the back is not leather, it's plastic made to look like leather. If you're set on getting a samsung, then at least get an S4, but I would still go for a LG G2 as someone else recommended or a nexus 5.

I can pay up to 400$.

The phone must be of Samsung or HTC.It should nearly have everything,in terms of sensors,fast,high resolution display, 8mp or above camera with front camera.Must be android kit Kat.

I recently had a look on Samsung galaxy tab pro 8.4 but it was kind of awful with it features.It doesn't have much sensors.

They don't sell anything good at that price point. 

 

I would really wait for the Nexus 6, or whatever it ends up being called.

Anything but Samsung. TouhWiz is ugly and you'll probably regret buying a Samsung. My Mom had one, she got a HTC and HTC is like r7 240 to 270 (for the same price)

Accidently liked.

Anyway, how could you like Samsung phones? They are the Last phones you should buy in Android because of Touchwiz and cheap plastic build.

HTC is good, but not really anything worthwhile in that price point.

I guess if you REALLY ONLY want those brands you could go for a HTC One M7. But...

Xperia T3, HTC Desire 816, Moto X, Nexus 5, OnePlus One (ATM not reccomended since zero warranty support.). Wait for Nexus 6.

 

Or to go with ''last gen hardware''

 

HTC One M7, Samsung galaxy S4 or LG G2

I would love to get stock android but it pisses me so much that the menu buttons take up precious screenspace. Why not have capacitive buttons and use the whole screen for you.. screen things.

OnePlusOne is good, I have it, just accept the risks that come with it.

Otherwise Nexus 5 is a 5 inch screen which is pretty big.

Isn't that a tablet?

For that price point, as has been pointed out, the Nexus 5 is the best bet. Nexus has the same size screen as the HTC one M8, as well as the same resolution screen. Also, don't touch samsung. Awful plastic phones, I should know from experience, an awful UI in touchwiz that is bloated, slow and poorly laid out. HTC are good, but for the price point you're asking for there are better options.
