Still have my Nokias, I'll be using my N79 tomorrow for Sports-Tracker when I go MTB in Robertson. Guy next to me at work has a Lumia and its pretty nice, but I don't see myself using one as a main phone anytime soon.
Super excited about the Nexus 4 though, only had Samsung droids so far so this will be something new.

Can't get the S2 anymore.
Sold out everywhere.
Well, unless you factor in the brand new boxed spare one that's in the top drawer of my bedroom cupboard, complete with extended battery and 32GB memory card.
Always good to have a backup!

So true!
I decided to rather take out another contract, for more or less the same money I would have paid to insure my S2.
Walked into a MTN store to cancel my MTN contract, but walked out with a new Talk 100 R189 a month contract and a brand new S2. Couldn't resist.

You b@stard! I wanted that Nexus 4!!!
The Nexus 5 will be here soon, so why not wait?
And no, I don't have a release date...yet.

My S2 with Omega v23, is often struggling with connectivity over wifi.
EG: Whatsapp images often don't upload.
Playstore always times out. ("Connection timed out", Retry)
But the wifi is fine when I surf or youtube on the same device.
And it's 100% over 3G.
My ADSL is stable, downloads and uploads work great from other devices, wifi signal is very strong, router was just rebooted...
So what's going on here?!

Could be in for a bit of a wait. Doesn't seem imminent ... http://www.knowyourmobile.com/google/google-nexus-5/20388/nexus-5-who-will-build-next-google-phone
Cant see it coming before the Moto-X in Oct (unless it turns out to be the Nexus 5).

Then perhaps I will just plump for the Nexus 4 after all. The HTC One is taking it's sweet time to get here...
A friend of mine got his HTC One this past week from Vodacom.

I'm due for a upgrade and would like your advice. Should I get a note 2 or an s4? I'm giving my s2 to my gf that's how much I love her
Wait for the Note 3, or get the S4 Active.

I'm also waiting for the Note 3, it's probably going to be a worthy upgrade from the S2.

The Note 3 will be 1080p , instead of 720p of the Note 2.
Played on a friend's Note 2 over the weekend & the icons are just huge.

That's what I'm hoping. If it's anything less than the S4, it's going to be a flop.
I also hope they put the FM radio back in!

Damn him!
After my time with the Note 2, I will definitely be on the list for the Note 3. 1080p at that screen size will be amazing...
On a side note- both my S2's have been sold in the space of 24 hours :wtf:

Why are you surprised?
It's the best looking Samsung phone ever made....and it still can handle anything you throw at it.
