WPCentral Question
Hey there,
I've been ruminating on this for a while and thought I'd turn to the experts for some advice.
I'm on T-Mo, get good signal where I live, like the pricing. I currently own 2 phones that I switch between:
1. HTC 8X
2. Nokia 521
On the 8X, I like that it has enough RAM that I don't have to worry about app restrictions, the larger screen, the higher resolution and , to be honest, the color.
On the 521 I like the expandable storage, the option for WiFi calling, user replaceable battery and the fact that if I take it somewhere I don't have to worry about it getting lost or stolen.
I actually think I'd be OK with the 8X more regularly if I could expand the storage.
I've been seriously considering dropping the $500 to get a 1520.3. I love the look of the device, and the specs are pretty nice even for a year old phone. The only things I might miss would be the WiFi calling and replaceable battery.
The question I have is, based on this info, should I go ahead and get a new phone, or wait and see if the 1525 ever materializes (and is actually on T-MO)? I was considering the HTC One and the Lumia 830, but I'm not convinced about the camera on the One, and the 1520.3 is just a MUCH better phone than the 830 for only about $100 more, and I wouldn't have to wait to get it.
Thanks in advance for your help!
