Looks good. I put a cover on my phones anyway, so who cares.

"The smartphone would be made of the same materials as Lego."

Haha! Well, at least it won't feel like hell if you step on one of these phones.

Really? No black? I guess they really want you to broadcast to the world hey look, I've got the budget one.

Waiting on the Galaxy Note 3 a real adult phone that doesn't cater to 12 yr olds with colors like that.

Why buy last year's model when most phones are barely supported a month after release? On Android, you're lucky if they're still supported the day they're released....

I play the phone game and while I lose money I win on the have-fun side. I keep my phones maybe 6-12 months and then I want the next new toy. I'm living with an S4 now (its not a bad phone) but am really looking forward to what I hope the Note 3 will be. With this strategy I worry not about long-term support. Will my carrier ever push 4.2 (or better) to my S4? ...doubt it.

I always said iPhones were children's toys...

So if the iPhone 5 is a cutdown version of the samsung Galaxy 4. That would make the cutodwn version of the iphone mini equivalent to the samsung galaxy 2.

HTC One. I see no SD card expandable storage, no removable battery, and that (typically)
white strip of trim around the side. ...very iPhone-ish to me. These things made me choose the 32GB S4.

if they cut back on the display resolution any more, they may as well just start using Apple II monitors.
