QOTW: Which mobile phone will you get next?

[aidanjt]

No idea. I'm not in any hurry to replace my OnePlus One, in any event.

The only thing I'd want more from my Galaxy S3 is more memory, and LTE. Everything other improvement (processor speed, camera quality, etc.) would be a welcome bonus but not strictly necessary.
What I will not absolutely not compromise on, is the microSD card. And I will only relent on the removable battery if the battery life is decent (last a full day, that is, 18+ hours according to my typical usage pattern) AND the phone is waterproof. MicroSD and removable battery were the main reason I decided to give the S3, and by association, Android a chance and now that Samsung turned their back on those, my next phone will likely be an LG assuming they don't follow Samsung / the rest of the market. If they do also forsake those of us wanting those features, I will either get an S5 or G4 OR use that as a reason to either try something new (look at Windows phones) or revisit the iPhone. It has been a long, long time.

As was said by someone else, the regular Z5 is 1080x1920. Only the 5.5" Z5 Premium is UHD. If I were you, I'd wait another 6 months for the inevitably Snapdragon 820-powered Z6, though. Even though newer 810s are better than early runs, they're still power hogs.

Both you and LSG501 are correct of course, I should have also mentioned I have no interest in an 810 snapdragon either with the 820 around the corner.

A nice 820 equipped Z6 would be right up my street, as long as it kept the micro-SD slot and a decent (3000mah+) battery.

I don't know, I am looking but I can't find anything small and reasonably priced that isn't loaded with bloatware.

I'm also a win phone user, have been since I stuck it on my HD2.
Very happy with the OS so next phone will also be windows.
Currently on a nokia 920.
Still waiting for an announcement of a proper flagship phone, but eyeing up a second hand 1520 as I like the huge screens.

Just had my Nokia 630 for 9 months, probably be a couple of years before I feel the need to replace it - unless the battery goes bad early.

[andrewuk]

Using a Lumia 920 here for a couple of years now and I no need to replace it just yet.

[Moogly]

Using an Xperia Z.
Not updating anytime soon.

[hexuqito]

A 4,6 inch nexus or a similar sized.THE Z5 compact doesn't worth the money Sony asks

[rob4001]

Looking at either the Moto X or new Nexus 5

[Potbellieddwarf]

I am more than happy with my Xperia Z Ultra as it does everything I need. Only way I would upgrade is if Sony upgrade the Z Ultra with a better camera and a flash. I love the 6.4" screen for photos and video.

Microsoft 940XL when its released as long as its not too much - otherwise I'll be buying a 640xl....

[Saist]

As of right now if I was buying within the next 2 months... I'd go for a Sony Z5 or Z5 Premium. I've had a Z1S. It was absolutely brilliant; surviving day to day work that destroyed Samung and Apple phones. I jumped to a Z3; which hasn't been quite as brilliant. The first one died on me within a month... the first refurb I got from T-Mobile had dead pixels... but the third phone has been as solid as the Z1S... although I must say I'm still a little sore in the rear that I got "New To You" phones from T-Mobile's warranty program rather than "Factory New" phones.

That being said; the Z5 and Z5P does have some attributes that concern me. I'm not entirely convinced the Qualcomm 810 is actually up to the task of driving an actual 4k UHD resolution screen. Not to mention the 810 has already earned it's reputation as a throttle-hungry thermally-volatile mobile chipset. Then there is the further issue that the 810 tops out at USB 3.0... so no USB Type C connector with DisplayPort capability that USB 3.1 brings. Granted, it's not like Sony had a lot of other options to pick from. While they could have used either an Nvidia or Intel chipset and had the USB 3.1 feature set... Qualcomm was probably giving Sony a huge price break on 810 chips; probably lower than Nvidia or Intel would have offered. And it's not like Sony's better build quality; and just plain better phones; have been flying off store shelves. For whatever reason the popular market is infatuated with Samsung or Apple...

I still have a HTC Windows phone 8X which i use for work and also a Microsoft 640XL which is used as a more general purpose device.
Should Microsoft bring out a flagship windows phone of the size of the old 1520 / current 640XL then i would move on the HTC and upgrade ... possibly.
The proviso is that it (flagship) needs to be 1920 x 1080 minimum, increased fixed storage (Windows phones always seem to have puny fixed storage), retain the micro SD slot and remain reasonably priced.
The 640XL is a very good device however a premium model at say £100 more would see me upgrade.
Outside of Windows i would pick an Android phone as second choice though premium phablet ones do seem rather expensive from any manufacturer.
Lastly would be iPhone 6+. Its the first Apple phone i have actually liked the look of where the display does not feel to small and everything is crammed in. It is though way to expensive and i just do not like the Apple ecosystem or the nannying way they go about things.

Best choice I made was getting my new HTC one M9. Really like the feel of it over my wife's galaxy S6. Send a lot quicker than my old galaxy s4
