Is it worth getting a phone now?

Tafel_Kafel

Considering that many new smartphones are going to be released in a few months, it's quite a hard choice.            

Wait and get gud new stuff or get good stuff that's going to be not-much-outdated in a few months?

What you want to get is something cheap to know if you would like it. That being said I think you should probably be getting a moto g. And may I ask if you have a boost mobile around?

Dat.

I'm waiting for the Asus Zenfone 2. :)

Which version O.o Also, will it be over a contract with a carrier or cash O.o

 

I'd personally get it, if i really had any need for it... M2 serves me just right :D Don't have a need to upgrade yet, except the fact that Sony fucked it up by staying silent about Lollipop ugrade for it... It has more than adequate specs... Oh well :D But if i had, i'd go with a 4Gb RAM version :D

Whichever, I use a 1gb phone now and it works fine, rarely hits the >90% RAM used limit (runs stock Android). For 200$/e I'll get a much better SOC, more RAM and a MUCH better camera, which is more than welcome, my current camera is pure shit. So anything with 2GB or greater will work. :D

I buy for cash, I hate contracts. :D

Well, for me contract was the only option to make my father get it for me... Whenever i ask for something technology related, his comeback is: "Go hit on some girls... Will you be playing games all day"...

 

I also don't need more than 1Gb :D My M2 serves me just right :D I only have a problem with it not being updated to 5.0... That's one of the few main reasons why i went with it over Idol X... It has the hardware... Moto E is updated to 5.0...

 

Well, my next phone will probably be HTC :D

 

Also, are you sure it'll be 200e~??? It's Serbia we're talking about, prices here are way higher than on west... Unless you're buying it over in some other country?

We never imported the first series of the Zenfones due to the price/performance ratio. I'm not expecting us to import the Zenfone 2 either... I'll be getting an "imported" one, if you know what I mean. I got a friend that comes to visit every now and then, I'll send him the money, he will buy it for me and bring it here. :D

Does not having a second parenthesis around something bother anyone else as much as it does me? (Like if this statement was missing a second side)
