This is the first smartphone I have used, and I was hesitant to get it due to the lack of expandable storage and rather small battery.
If those two factors don't bother you, then this might be a pretty nice phone for you.
One thing I MUST mention is that if you do not have Beats Audio turned on, then your phone will actually make the music sound worse than it actually is. This makes Beats Audio sound a lot better when you do enable it, persuading you to purchase the phone. It is only an equalizer that turns the lowest and highest frequencies of sound up. We perceive these sounds as interesting. When it is off, this range of sounds is turned down more than usual, making the sound quality worse than it actually is.
- Gorgeous Display
- Verizon's Coverage
- Build Quality (Except Screen)
- Will Get KitKat In First Quarter of 2014
- BATTERY
- No MicroSD Card Slot
- Very Little Storage included in phone (10 GBs usable)
- Slow To Receive Updates
- Beats Audio (Kind of)
- Screen Easy To Crack
- Brightness Doesn't Go Very Low
This phone is very good. The camera is doable, the the processor is great on the phone. The sense 5 ui is great and the display is great. The only issue is th the phone is too powerful for the battery.

- FAST PROCESSOR!!!!!
- SENSE 5 IS BOSS!!!!!
- Camera is good.
- BATTERY!@@!!#$&$#
I was torn between this phone and the Galaxy Note2. I wish I had bought the Galaxy. This phone has been one series of problems after another. The biggest problem is this -- the phone regular loses "contact" with the SIM card. This makes the phone useless in emergency situations. I have had the phone replaced three times because of this. Additionally, this phone has the worst battery life of any phone I've every owned (and I've owned smartphones back since the first Palm Treo). Combine this with HTC's and Verizon's refusal to address the inherent problems with the SIM card, means they have both lost a customer.
