What new android phone should I get?

Hey guys, pretty straight forward.
Just to let you know, I really don't want an HTC one x, or any other phone with poor battery life.
Things that matter:
Screen size: 4in+
Processor
Camera quality
HARDWARE in general
Overall feel of the phone in your hand
I would prefer the least amount of plastic on the phone as possible.
Thanks guys

HTC sensation or galaxy s 2

Plastic is a nice thing....

Do you have a carrier preference? Are you wanting to stay with VZW?

HTC EVO 4G LTE.
Outstanding battery life.
16GB internal storage and a micro sd slot.
Blazing fast processor.
It feels solid as a rock.
It has the best screen of any phone I have ever used, 4.7 inch.
The camera on this phone is phenomenal. Here is a thread with pics from it.
All in all this is the best phone I have ever owned.

The evo 4G is very intriguing.
As far as carrier, I don't care at all.
So far the phones in the race are:
Sony xperia ion
HTC evo 4g
Samsung galaxy s3
These are just so far. Feel free to offer any handset as a suggestion. I'll put up a poll when I get into the preliminaries.

Wait for the HTC phone that's coming to Verizon
It has a 1080 p screen so everything would be awesome
It also has an adreno 320 cup

I'm jelly of ya'll that have more than one carrier with service in your area.
Does the Nexus not even get a honorable mention simply because it gets the newest Android versions before any other phones? I agree that there is better hardware on the market, but I love showing off all the new features before anyone else gets them. My buddy just posted on fb how he got ICS on his RAZR, I replied "It can't do a barrel roll." Its fun to be smug about firmware lol.
I got my hands on a SGSIII and I liked it allot, big good looking screen, felt good in my hand, fast and smooth. I rooted it and gave it back to my buddy. Plus the Galaxy S phones have good development so you wont be waiting too much longer than Nexus for custom ROMs and such..

The nexus was in the running, but the camera threw it out for me.

If you want to be certain you'll get 1st party updates without waiting them definitely Galaxy Nexus. The camera, however, isn't too good.
Personal suggestion is S2. I haven't found one con from this phone, it's fast,I like its screen,a lot of development here, camera is excellent. It also packs a 1 6GB flash memory and a micro SD slot.

Gs3 is too big... I I think I've decided on the ion... I I don't hate htc... But i do hate Microsoft lol

Agreed! HTC is good with designs and Sense 4.0 is good...its the hardware that lags

I'd pick HTC over any phone. Not to keen on the Incredible 4G for Verizon though. Its nothing like what the other carriers got. I'll be sticking to my Droid Incredible 2 so long as Dev's continue to support it.

Do her a favor and root it then install the Franco kernel to squeeze better battery life out of it. Cheers!

What phone compliments the nexus 7

Currently using an iPhone 4s alongside my nexus 7, OK its nice to have best of both world type devices, but I would like to use my nexus to be able to use mighty text type apps so I think its time to grab another android phone, got an option locally a guy wants to swap his galaxy note, but I'm thinking this is pretty close in size, what would you recommend?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

Galaxy Nexus all the way. The Nexus 4 is too fragile and not worth the hassle in my opinion. Sure it has a quad core processor and 2Gb of RAM, but honestly.. who uses that on a phone.

I would recommend the HTC One X, but seriously... After some of the stuff HTC have been doing nowadays, I struggle to recommend HTC.

I have an original GNote and can't imagine having any thing else. There is a bigger difference in size then you would think.
And remember "When you go Note, 4 inches is a joke".

I am finding N4 compliments N7 greatly. Basically you get some great raw power on both devices, but the tegra in the N7 give way for different, but complimentary usage. Tegra exclusive games run with great power, while N4 runs non tegra with even greater power.
Maybe it was a design decision so that both devices have equal usage. XD
Well screen size is also a factor. I am not so interested in watching video on the N4. Still I find myself using both devices at once a lot. N7 definitely being the couch/bed lazy movie viewing device.

The LG Optimus Me P350 is less than $100 UNLOCKED. Big screen difference.

Except the part where it completely decimates the first time you drop it.

Definitely a nexus phone, either cheap used g'nex or 4. I determined to skip the n4 so I could get more than a years worth of use out of my g'nex (bought last july), but after playing with a friends its been tough not placing the order.

I'd have to say the Optimus One

If you could trade your N3 for any device???

Hi opinions please what device would you trade your N3 and why. Keeping developer support also in mind. Thx in advanced
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app

Either the T-Mobile or the International version Note 3.
Sent from my SM-N9005A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Most likely because of unlocked boot loader, but any other devices? Perhaps lg flex?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app

Indeed for unlocked bootloaders.
Nope. I dislike LG. They are the Crapple of the Android world.
I personally can't justify giving up the Note 3 for a different device. Too many great features that I love using.
Sent from my SM-N9005A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I have an upgrade on my account and i cant see trading it in for any current offerings. However i am considering getting the Hisense x1 although i am torn between trading in better specs for more screen.

The touchscreen system inside a Tesla, but that'll never happen.
I'd do a yotaphone when it comes out. I'd trade it now for a Xperia Z ultra or Z2

This.
I'd also trade for a new AR15. Hey, it's a "device". You didn't say it had to be a cellular device.

I'd pick a T-Mo Note3.
Nothing has come out in recent months that's made me wish I had something else - I just wish we had an unlocked bootloader like T-Mo people.
The OLED screen is IMO a must-have, I really think they look better than LCDs - and of course, it's gotta be full HD, and >5 inches. That right there cuts out most of the options!
And it's gotta have a micro SD card slot as well, otherwise I can't carry my music around (and cloud music doesn't work in subway/etc - not to mention that music is something too important to trust to the cloud).
Only thing I wish it had was IP67 dust+water resistance - and it sounds like that's going to be in Sammy's galaxy line now, based on what we saw with S5 announcement.

I can honestly say there is no other device out there that I would want. My AT&T Note 3 suits me just fine.

Planning to get the new HTC One when it's released, in large part because of the unlocked bootloader and the original was my favorite device other than the N3. I just hated the camera.

The only devices I could settle for outside the Note 3 would be Note 2, GS4, GS4 Active, or GS5. But there is no current device that I would willingly trade for. Note 3 is awesome, and I love Touchwiz.

Hit up liquipel for IP67.
