Which one did you get? S4, note 2?

What is the best one to get now?
My Bionic won't charge the battery anymore. I have 3 batteries and a charger, but that's starting to suck

( Hopefully my buddy who set me in that phone a few years ago won't be insulted by me wanting a new one )

Any phone with the Droid Jelly Bean OS is going to be pretty much the same as far as basic operation goes.

Good camera?
Sometimes the bionic is not the camera to have in your hand.

The S4 has a good camera with some really cool options. I have a Iphone 5 and my Wife has a Galaxy 4S. I'd rather have her phone without a doubt.

S4 is nice but is having a lot of issues which are getting fixed with updates. Its battery life is pretty lame to. S4 has problem the best camera right now.

Note 2 is awesome, fast, great camera but large. Killer battery life as well.

Note 3 when it comes out later this month will be the best device on the market.

I am using a Note 2 with the S4 OS 4.2.2 until 4.3 comes out. My N2 runs circles around my co-workers S4 and her's drops calls all the time but being in remote areas and armored buildings could be part of the issue for her, although I never drop calls or get delayed texts/emails like she does in the same environment.

Her pictures are better though.13 vs 8 rear and 2 vs 1.9 front. I like the big screen for surfing the net as well.

Wish I could Charlie, but I had to turn in my old phone when I took an upgrade.
