Droid Razr or wait for iphone 5?

[Nyq]

so i am eligible for an upgrade and i was wondering some stuff. Currently i have an Iphone 4 and its jailbroken so i can get a lot of unique features on it but the touchscreen is laggy alot and i was wondering if i should just get a droid razr for my next phone or wait for the iphone 5. Is the 4G worth it? Hows the touch screen?

Waiting is always a mistake.
Upgrade when you need to.

iPhone 4S is a better phone than a Razr in my opinion. If you're willing to consider the Nexus S, though...

The Nexus S, from Dec 2010?
I'm sorry, I disagree with everything you said. The 4S is a good phone, but it is not on par with the Motorola Razr. Nor is the Nexus S on par with either.

In my opinion, the Droid Razr shouldn't even be in the running... There are better Android phones available, take a look at the Samsung Galaxy S III, which should be releasing any day now in the US, or the HTC One X (if you're AT&T).

I myself am trying to decide if I should go with the S III or wait for the iPhone 5. My iPhone 4 is on its last leg, the home button only works if I push it in a certain spot, and only then about 1/3 of the time.

Not sure I would suggest the Nexus S, that is a generation (soon to be two) old.

Same here. Have to push the home button with a sledgehammer for it to work right away. I'll wait for the iphone 5. Waiting often isn't a mistake.

I'm still trying to decide. I've been using an iOS device since the iPhone 3G came out, so I'm pretty apprehensive about trying something new, but I'm not sure I wanna wait until September or October.

I'm also kinda interested in trying Android, AT&T used to offer a 30 day trial period, I wonder if they still do that...

Not sure if i like the s3 design not into all the curves

Mobile phones are an extremely rapidly expanding industry. Now we have the boss-mode Galaxy s3, fall will bring the iPhone 5, with a 4.6 inch screen,(apparently apple made an order for those) and perhaps at the end of the year we will get maximum-battery Mirasol phones. Upgrading will always give you benefits. I would personally stay away from the 4s though, even if it's fast, it's the same form factor and the same 3.5 inch screen.

The Droid Razr is a fantastic phone, which hopefully will be getting ICS by the end of the month. Though a non removable battery is annoying, and it is no longer on par with other phones hardware wise.

Thought I recommend the HTC one X.

Consider this: The screen is a 720p super amoled display and it has a wolfson dac, on top of that it has the community support of voodoo drivers, which are fcking awesome. For example, you can use the internal D/A chip on your s3 as a Mother***cking amplifier. ( once voodoo's released)

I would suggest Nokia Lumia 900 as an alternative answer if thats okay

Still using Nexus one, really see no need to upgrade, its still fast even running ICS on it.

[Lightwysh]

/me admires his iphone 3gs, no issues at all.

[Nyq]

What is ICS?

[Deleted]

What is ICS?

Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0)

Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0)

Does the razr have that?

I'd like to rescind my statement about the Razr I said before in response to Badpaladin, I was thinking of the newer one.

In my opinion, the Droid Razr shouldn't even be in the running... There are better Android phones available, take a look at the Samsung Galaxy S III, which should be releasing any day now in the US, or the HTC One X (if you're AT&T).

I would strongly recommend not getting a One X. Ever.

Same here. Have to push the home button with a sledgehammer for it to work right away. I'll wait for the iphone 5. Waiting often isn't a mistake.

Waiting is always a mistake, unless something is three weeks away. Look at the GTX 600 series vs the HD7900-series. Waiting was a big mistake. Instead of having had a great GPU all the time, you waited for an equal GPU costing considerably more.

Does the razr have that?

No.

[Irony]

Does the razr have that?

It will, soonish.

Why's that? From what I've seen, it is very close to the S III.
