Just curious to see what you may have and if you are happy with it.
Never been an Apple fan, so my experience may not be of value, but... I just bought a new Motorola G model for much less than $400. I have always had Samsung, and in particular got addicted to the Samsung Note models with the e pens. However, the outrageous price of the high end Samsung's prompted me to do a LOT of shopping and personal inspection. Just 4 weeks ago I bought the Motorola G and now, in retrospect, I don't understand why I, and so many others, pay the prices we do. This phone is fabulous, I will never use all of the amazing functions it is capable of.... jot hand written notes on the screen, or on photos you take, and then instantly, at a touch, turn your own "scribbling" into neatly types text ! Priceless ... LOL.. as the Amex ads on TV say... priceless ! No more $1200 and $1600 phones for me, thankfully I really took the time for once to see all that is available. Who would have thought... Motorola ?
