Last time I checked, flagship phones go for $600-$700 when released. Quite frankly, $700 isn't going to break me either. I can think of a lot of other things I can go waste my money on.
Spare me on the "flimsy" materials and the build quality bullshit. The phone works great and hasn't fallen apart on me :wub:
I currently have a GS II (my Nexus 5 comes tomorrow or Monday). The build quality is very poor. The back cover isn't flush with the rest of the phone. The micro USB port on the bottom is very loose to the point that the USB cord almost falls out if it is moved to much. The materials suck. The back cover is flimsy. The back cover and edges show excessive wear. I've even replaced the back cover. TWICE! Slightly twisting the phone results in many creaks and clicks like it doesn't fit together tightly. The S3 and S4 don't seem any better. I've never had or seen a phone with such bad build quality and materials like Samsung has.
Battery lasted 2 days with light usage after the 2nd charge, thanks to the excellent sleep performance.
That seems pretty good. The history details don't show any WiFi stats. Is that all on mobile data? Screen brightness? My Nexus 5 will be here tomorrow or Friday and based on your results I think I'll be pretty happy with battery life.
I'm hoping for like 4-5 hours screen on time over like 16 hours all on mobile data with brightness at about 50%. That would get me through my heaviest days of usage.
