I've just about had it with AT&T's service, and pricing. I will never buy subsidized again; I am going to go with a GSM unlocked phone that I can use wherever I want, and choose whatever service I want when I like.
Having said that, do you guys think it would be a mistake to get the Galaxy Nexus at this time? With all these new phones coming out, there seems like too many concessions that I have to make.
1. No SD Card slot (admittedly, this is the only thing where the GN falls short).
2. No removable/expandable capacity battery.
3. Pentile crap (was expecting better on the SIII, which I was waiting for, and subsequently got disappointed).
I was considering the HTC One X, but I'd have to get the international version in order to use it on T-Mobile, and the downside to that is poor battery life compared to the AT&T version, which of course is locked to....AT&T. Was considering the HTC One S, but it has Pentile trash (and I can see how poorly it looks compared even to the GN). The SIII completely disappointed me; I was expecting more, IMHO.
Having said that, I can buy the GN from the Google Play store. At least is completely unlocked, I can install whatever custom ROM I want on it, use it on whatever service I want whenever I want, and only concede that it has no SD card slot.
Am I making the right choice here? Any input would be great (to help me see the light ).
Thanks!
