I want to get a new cell phone but, I don't know which one to get. It's down to the Droid Razr Maxxx HD, the iPhone 5, or the Samsung Galaxy S3 or Note 2. I need long battery life, maybe a big screen and a mobile hotspot. Can someone help me decide?
I'd say go with the Note 2 or Galaxy S3. Both phones have large displays, good battery life, large screen and mobile WiFi hotspot features. The Note 2 is a more powerful phone, however they are both high-end phones and should perform similarly for everyday use.
I wouldn't waste your money on an iPhone for various reasons. Disclaimer: I only use Android phones/tablets.
Could you list some of those reasons?
Meaning "Android fanboys hate the iPhone 5, so it must be pretty bad."
I'd go with the iPhone 5 if you plan on gaming. It has slightly better graphics performance than the S3, not sure about the other 2 though.
