So not getting a GS3, way better phones are coming out
BTW, have any of u seen the GN 2?!?!? It's as big as my FACE!!!!! I never thought a phone would be that large
It just needs . 7 inches and it'd be a tablet. I think it's only available at sprint
It is SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, they re-posted the same story from two weeks ago but, now they've included the disclaimer that,
"This story is sponsored by Sprint. PhoneArena's opinions in this article have not been affected in any way!"
Yes PhoneArena, we know, you're still iBiased and love Apple; that will never change or be 'affected in any way'.

We really need to know about these new Nexi that are coming out. I really want to know if there is going to be a HTC Nexus 5. Also what about the HTC DLX?
There really can't truly be a holiday 2012 list without knowing anything about the Nexi.
Maybe a week before black Friday is the time for an article like this. This is too preemptive for my liking. Too many BIG names missing. Why get a Galaxy S III when there are literally BEASTS coming out? lol

Funny, my holiday list is going to contain
Windows RT/Pro or Transformer Infinity
and International version of the HTC 5" 1080p
So none of the above in the slideshow.

Amen, I was looking for the rest of the Nexus that are coming out from other manufacturers... The news on them pretty much died out.
The LG Nexus doesn't impress me one bit.

Totally agree, SAMOLED+ is the way to go.

They haven't had a compelling lineup in years, and really, nothing has ever been super compelling with them. The EVO was OK, but without a strong WiMax deployment there wasn't much to it. Everything else they've come out with lately that has been decent has an equivalent model on a different carrier (usually AT&T, oddly), so even less compulsion

The timing of these wish lists is puzzling, with Apple, Microsoft and Google having some major events and officially outing some new tech goodies in the next few days.

1080p HTC Nexus 5 with the SLCD3 has my eye. Let's hope it does pan out!
+1

For me, that's the biggest disappointment with the cancelled Google event. I was hoping to see a lineup of Nexus phones, not just the N4. So far I'm planning on getting the N4, but I was hoping for a Samsung 5" screen Nexus.

I can't believe the IP5 is tops on both the VZW list and the ATT list. It's not the best piece of hardware out there.

Doesn't have to b the best, it's just the most wanted. Being the best is subjective.
45. chaoticrazor posted on 20 Nov 2012, 08:20 0 0
whats the best then?
seeing as nothing is ever the best otherwise tech would stop. it could be better then some for a certain person but never the best

It's like they said this list is way too early and sponsored by Sprint, which has no more phones to put out.

It seems like this article was released a little prematurely. In a little over a week we'll have all the info we'll need on the new line of Nexus devices, as well as how well MS's surface and Windows 8 in general works. Heck, PA could've held off on this article for at least 24 hours to let Apple get its iPad Mini word in edgewise.

In so many ways fail... So many. PS I love how the Lumia 920 is pictured with the HTC Windows Phone 8X...

For AT&T you are showing a picture of the 820 for the 920.

how come Galaxy SIII and Note 10.1 are both missing on the International 2012 Holiday smartphone and tablet gift guide?
21. Martine posted on 22 Oct 2012, 23:19 0 0
Also, why is Surface missing on the international list? is Apple iPad the only tablet option?
Too bad I couldn't edit my previous comment.

List is just not complete/released too soon. You have the Note 2 which was not released in the states but you left off the LG models and the Verizon HTC DLX could be a killer phone released in time for the holidays. You got the iPad 3 but we will have a iPad mini event today that "could" be a better value. And then on T-Mobile you have the Note 2 over the S3 but on every other carrier you have the Note 2 after the S3.
Last but not least is the iPhone being number one against better Android devices; there should have been a 3 way tie between iPhone, Samsung S3 and the Note 2. Or just do away with the numbering system all together.

The Nexus 10 should definitely be on that list. Not to mention the ASUS PadFone 2(Not that we could afford giving away as gifts tho.)!!!

I'm hoping somebody will sell a cheap unlocked SIII for black friday.
46. dorianb posted on 20 Nov 2012, 08:34 0 0
I figured the Droid DNA would of replaced the Galaxy SIII since the Note II was listed as well. Go figure.
Still no Surface listed either.
Get it together!!!

They keep using a picture of a Lumia 820 for the 920.
