New Phone..

[Merlorz]

Yes.. You read that right. My old phone (Samsung Galaxy S3) broke, I know its an ancient phone in the tech world.

But I don't really have an idea to replace it with..

 

I'm struggling between the HTC One M8, LG G3 and Sony Xperia Z3.

But what about the Moto X?

 

Rule 1: No iOS, I don't like the OS and I'm a heavy google service user.

Rule 2: As stock android as possible, I hate Samsung and their freaking bloatware..

Rule 3: No phablet sized phone like the Nexus 6

 

 

Thnx Anyway!

I'd say M8 or Z3. If you need it to be durable get the Z3 otherwise the M8.

Grab something like a Moto G and then wait a few months because the new phones are coming :3

Moto X or the Nexus 5 or any phone you like and throw a custom rom.

Durable the M8 destroys the Z3.

 

The Z3 is more flexible in usage scenarios because it's waterproof and dustproof, but having a complete front and back glass panel vs a relatively small front glass panel surrounded all-aluminum unibody....

If you want the closest thing to stock android as possible get either a moto x or a nexus 5.

I meant more for the dust proof and the water proof. However my mum has dropped her Xperia Z a lot. Like constantly, and it works fine. (For the most part)

I wouldn't recommend an M8 at this point because the M9 is right around the corner, and the M8 has year-plus old specs.

Are you buying the phone unlocked or from a specific carrier? Some phones are better for the money on some carriers then others, and some carriers have exclusive phones such as Verizon's Droid Turbo

Z3s tend to crack more easily then original Z due to them using thinner glass on the Z3 to cut down on thickness and weight. From high-up drops flat onto it's face the original Z is more likely to shatter, but it's more common to see Z2s and Z3s with a single large crack across the front or back due to pressure or a small drop.
