Is anyone planning to upgrade their device and is looking for a replacement to their current phone? What would it be? And why? I'm planning in a few months so I could use some opinions!!

I've been using IncS for just over a year now. I still think my phone is pretty good and fast for me. Now with ICS, it's even better. I believe it can at least last for another year.
Changed phone to one x. Nice ICS.

Was all in for one s but found the coating chipped problem on the black version, so decide to wait and see.
To me, give my IS duo core, a little better camera (It's already quite good), I will be happily stick with it for another year, it is just so overall nice compare to other phone.

Exactly!!! This phone is good enough! Just dual core and bigger battery!! Camera upgrade is optional!

Duo/Quad core with slightly better GPU and I'll use it for another 3 years.
My phone is currently with HTC service for changing USB port /mainboard. Depending on the condition it comes back,I'm sticking with my current phone.
Edit.
I mean I intend to stick with my IncredibleS. Served me well for a year, still has good value & mileage to last for another year,easily.

I've had this phone for close to a year n still not bored with it. Anyone who sees it always has something good to say bout it. Personally I feel it is a very well manufactured phone n with ics it shud b the best performer in its segment cos I heard ics is freakingly stable!!

I sold my IncS and bought a One X instead. And i have no regrets so far

I just got my phone back from HTC, I sent it in because my power button was a bit dodgy, and my warranty is running out
Anyway I got it back, more than a month later, and it had a new motherboard, s-on with HBOOT 2.00.000
I had planned to sell it, and buy an Evo 3D, but after I took pictures for ebay, I decided to keep it, and I downgraded and rooted it
As soon as ICS arrives, I will be happy

Like everyone would ask!! If you used your one x as much you use incredible s daily what is the battery life you get??
Sent from my Incredible S using Tapatalk
Nexus Family is one of the best candidates.
My friend moved from InS to Galaxy Nexus for a month, And he told me that he wouldn't buy any other brand but Nexus.
The only current phone I would upgrade to would be the One S, and right now I have no plans to retire my Incredible S for the foreseeable future.

Well my IncS sure had a better battery life.
I would like my onex's battery to last longer, but I can live with it.
And the speed and smoothness is so much greater on this one. And I am running completely stock and not even rooted.
Also I am one of the lucky ones having almost none of the reported issues with the OneX.
So its clearly an upgrade I would recommend

Nexus is a good phone but the money u pay for it is not what u get ...earlier nexus were great and up to the mark but the recent one is just plain odd for a flagship phone!! Hope HTC makes the next nexus! And I recently had a chance to use the xperia s .. must say for the price I was impressed and it has a pretty good battery life!!

Aah... Again... I guess it has something to do with cost control!! Btw whatever happened to the rezound ... Its disappeared suddenly!! Its a one s with 720p screen isn't it!! Would love to buy it for cheap!!
No one's planning for the s3... Just announced recently!! What's the thoughts on that?

The rezound is a Verizon US only phone.
My contract ends this time next year :/
IMO the galaxy s 3 looks ugly, if I wanted something else I would get a one s
It just looks good, fast, and cos the one x is too big

I've seen sense clocks on many other devices trying to imitate the sense's look. Why not just try a custom launcher, you'll do that anyways on any other device

you can always flash a custom AOSP rom like virtuous inquisition or the wajee one and get rid of sense.
I have virtuous ROM, but I'm going ahead and trading my vivid for the nexus s.

I can't really find a phone worthy to replace my vivid yet. Of course something similar or a little better, yes, bu not that "wow" device. The direction some manufacturers go (no sd card or removable battery, even quad-core with lte) I guess I'll keep it for at least 9-12 more months.

you can always flash a sensless rom. then you might fall in love with the vivid again. once you rip out sense and att apps, the device starts to perform

Even though the Incredible S is a very good and sturdy phone, I would not recommend it at this time as its already past 3 years since it last launched. Do you have some sort of budget??

Hmm well I don't know how much your plan costs nor do I know how vodafone does things but it might be worth to try the S4 Mini, One Mini, or the Xperia SP. They are all pretty descent mid-range phones.

Thanks ill have a look
I've been looking for a battery case to have with me for those times I can get to a charger but I'm about to run out. Mophie, assuming they'll release a case like they did for the M7, has yet to announce or real ease a case mad I haven't really found any other suitable options. I have a Mophie Powerstation, but it's only the 2500 mAh which I bought about 3 years ago because it could fill up the tiny iPhone battery 3-5 times before recharging.
Anyway, I'd like to get a list going for people looking at similar products and I was hoping that anyone with suggestions could toss them in here.
Thanks guys!

Nah it's not the metal. If it were then the iPhone wouldn't have any. Your on the right track though. It's the curvature of the back.

Yeah. It is great. I'm not saying it isn't. I'm just thinking about those times when your out and not going to be near a charger when your battery is nearing no charge. Not a everyday thing. More of a emergency power thing.

This is the one I was talking about. For the M7.

I didn't get the M7, I wouldn't mind a case like this for the M8.
I agree that battery life is good much better than the nexus 5 but a battery case would be nice. I have one zerolemon for nexus 5 and it really is useful for days with out a charger or just intensive days

The htc in the pic seem to be an early render (no 3 piece metal there), however the case seems to be interesting.
I know there were some issues with the m7 case, but I hope they were resolved...

the issues with the M7 initially we're no IR support, but eventually, with newer revisions, they started supporting that.
However, the more concerning issue was with the rubber banding starting to peel of after time.
Hopefully, they fixed that.

Interesting... I would have though that the peeling/separation of the TPU from the plastic wouldn't be a problem as they claimed to have fixed it on the DNA case.
They do have a 3-Year warranty and replaced both of my DNA cases at the time, but weird that they had the same issue on the M7 still.
I'm waiting for other colors to be in stock, but they're much more expensive than the standard gray =[
Mine's coming tomorrow supposedly. Only thing I'm worried about is it fitting with the glass Zagg screen protector I got. The one on my M7 is really tight, so I'm worried with the glass protector on the m8 it won't fit.
I'll see tomorrow I guess.
