I was wondering what everyone is recommending as the best phone to buy in 2013. I just picked up a HTC 8X Windows Phone, I was upgrading from an iPhone 4S (which is getting old and playing up a little). It's a shock to the system as i expected, but i plan to spend atleast a month on it before i decide if i like it or not.
The problem with moving from an apple iphone to another device it that the iOS is so simple to use. No need for so much extra stuff. But i love the new windows features of the 8X, it has microsoft office, IE, and all my xbox live stuff built in. i can now play windows phone games too when i get bored too. lol

But if you're still looking the nexus 4 is at an amazing price under $300s for a 16GB with lte unlocked straight from Google.
nexus4 is still going to last for a few years imo it was way ahead of it's time. _________________________________________________________ The internet, a place where people expect you to know what they know.

Actually had some time to finally play with my HTC Windows phone last weekend and I'm please to report it's very nice.. It just takes a little while to get used to but everything is there.
I love the free Windows Phone Xbox LIVE games too, there seems to be heaps of them, i think maybe even one free every month or something if you are a GOLD subscriber, but i need to look into that further. Any one else enjoying a windows phone? _________________________________________________________ HQ Network:
