Whats the best Andriod phone to update to.

Jaydogg_Home · 08-01-2015, 22:34

Hey all. I can upgrade from tomorrow, I'm on vodafone, was thinking about waiting for the lg gflex 2 but it's not a 4K phone and the snapdragon 810 is apprently having issues, and benchmarks on the units at CES were bad, so what should I do, and what Andiod phone should I get (I'm on the top 4G contract and after a decent phone). I have the LG G2 currently.

I'm looking to upgrade too and personally I'm looking at either the Xperia Z3 or Note 4 as I want a great camera, 4K video, and great battery. I'm more drawn to the Note 4 though because I like the bigger screen and it feels nicer to hold.

You mean a 4K screen?
We're a long way off of them still.

The Note4 has got to be worth a look, or perhaps the Note Edge if you're drawn towards something a bit more unique.
The Nexus 6 is quite a nice handset too, based on my limited hands-on time with one.

No, I'm aware the top screens are 2K. As in you won't be able to do/view 4k pics and videos on it's 1080P screen (if the camera allows this, not sure I know it's the G3's camera and thats a 2K screen). And the SD 810's key features won't be used in this phone because the screens only 1080P and so you can't view higher quality content and most likely can't take it on the cameras. I know I'll get the LTE/Wifi voice system, 450MBS never got anywhere near that moden etc.

Someone help me a bit here please, if I'm changing my phone and not waiting it'll be today.

I was just looking at Note 4, rather nice, despite Samsung's generic design.

I have a LG G3 and one of my niece's has a Note 4, both are really good phones and both can shot 4K video if required. Both have removable batteries and SD card slots.

The Note 4 is a very nice bit of kit (for a Samsung), the stylus is quite handy. My G3 was updated to Android 5 (Lollipop) in December and had another small update this week so doing a decent job of keeping up with Google.
