HTC DESIRE HD

I sold mine for 2.5k and bought a Galaxy S2 brand new for the same price.
My phone was immaculately cared for though. Planning to sell the s2 to get something new when contract upgrades, use money as a pay in

Apart from the processor I think the new phones aren't that far ahead in spec and look and feel if you root your DHD. Manufacturers are also releasing new flagship model every 9 months and prices in SA can be insane e.g S3 so I don't feel the urge to change yet.

I am going to wait for a quad core, 13 mega pixel, 5 " 1024 screen, dual sim phone. Will see what gets released in SA later this year.

See that is my problem.

I am using the Xperia Play, and it has the same CPU on a smaller screen(same res) with game controls. I feel no reason to upgrade my phone as it just works. Do not know why I bought the HTC anyway.

Just for interest sake, people still using their Desire HD's (Like me). What will your next phone be?

I am waiting for the announcement for the new HTC M7, but yesterday I stumbled upon the Sony Xperia Z. Any thoughts?

I plan on getting a Galaxy S3. I don't like the idea of a non removable battery and no SD card, so HTC is ruled out.
Also, regarding the Xperia Z, a friend bought one and within days the case started to peel (not through any negligence on his part)
He complained to Sony and they told him to take it up with Voda.

Currently enjoying Android 4.2.1, the Cyanogenmod 10.1 ROM. My DHD is 2 years old next month and still going strong. Don't think I'll be upgrading now. Think I'll change my contract to pre-paid until I really need a upgrade and then I'll change service providers too (go Cell-C or MTN).
Best phone ever...

did you also get a email welcome to the galaxy nexus after installing the ROM?

Ja, wondered where that came from.

True, but I must admit I love my other classic waaaay more. Xperia Play another underestimated phone. I still do not know why SA(Vodacom) only had the Xperia on the shelves for only 4 months. Hell of a battery life and same specs as the DHD just weigh more + smaller screen.
