Firstly, I probably want to stick with Verizon. I have great reception here in Boston with my LG chocolate 3 -- I can't even remember anymore how many years I've had this thing -- and I'm on a family plan, so I don't think I want to mess around and experiment with new carriers. I am willing to consider other carriers if there's some compelling reason, though.
Anyway, my primary reason for wanting a smart phone finally is that I want to be able to use time more efficiently. So, when I'm on the bus or the "T" (trolley/subway system) I want to be able to dig through my emails instead of simply staring out the window. Commuting is kind of a waste of time but with a smart phone I could make use of that time.
Probably the second biggest reason is for navigation: being able to look up a map when I'm walking around trying to find things.
So, my priorities are:
- efficient email reading, maybe writing (typing emails is less of a priority than just reading)
- phone fundamentals: good reception, etc.
- dimensions: I want it to be small and as thin as possible. I don't care about a big screen for watching videos or playing shitty phone games. Just big enough screen for reading.
- build quality: durability, etc.
- battery life
Any suggestions? Thanks
