Thinking of getting a new Smartphone

[thebearing]

As my plan is up, I am looking into a new smartphone that is below the mega 5" screen that mobile companies are dishing out. I am looking something small in between of iphone 5 to S3 size. I saw most s3 doesn't have privacy film when their screen is so big i can almost saw what they typing .

As 2013, what are the good phones that are coming out and people like me can wait for before we sign any phone of 2012 ?

3M privacy screen for S3

privacy screen protector for Note II

Privacy film will darken the screen thus you won't get to enjoy the effect of the HD

Although you are looking at phones below 5 inch screen, just thought you may want to consider the upcoming Sony Xperia Z. Rave review during recent CES.

there are ppl selling the nexus 4 in the grey market... abt $550 for the 8gb & abt $630 for the 16gb... warrenty-wise, don't think it's covered though as sets are brought in from US..

i think either the s3 or note 2 is a good buy.
am holding the I5, too be honest, does not seem to have any difference in experience compared to the older iphones.

i just went and check out Sony Xperia Z, it wasn't as good as s3 though. But if the rumours of s4 are true, sporting a 4.99" screen compared to a s3 of 4.5' screen. I am quite tempted to wait till s4 is out. The screen size matters as i want a mobile phone that can fit into my side pockets. Not the wallet pocket.

Lol @ Blackberry 10. He said "smart"phone, so no Blackberries.
I vote Nexus 4 when it comes out. But then I work at Google so I would say that...

Would you know when if nexus 4 is available through google store or LG store in singapore ?

[alexlobov]

I don't have an official date on it as I don't work in mobile but it looks like it's going to take a while and demand will probably be huge. Also, LG controls phone pricing in Singapore rather than Google so I doubt that it will be priced in line with the US models - something to consider.
