Are there any Android phones that are around 4.3" or under that aren't just a nerfed version of a bigger phone? Having trouble finding anything decent and I want to go down to more of an "iPhone size" screen.
Z1 compact
The only thing that come is Sony's [URL="http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/products/phones/xperia-z1-compact/"]Xperia Z1 Compact[/URL]. Not many Android OEM's make phones of that size anymore, or at least take it seriously. [editline]20th April 2014[/editline] Damn you, person
Just bought the HTC One M8 today. This thing is sexy and I'm loving it so far. I'm NOT loving the stupid HTC Sense skin they decided to put over the stock Android appearance. I'm tempted to root the damned thing and bring in stock KitKat, but it would void my insurance.... Worth it? [IMG_THUMB]http://i.imgur.com/6yof3ft.jpg[/IMG_THUMB] Also my right thumb keeps hitting the right edge of the screen while I'm scrolling.

How much you should do depends on how much of Sense you want to remove, though. [editline]19th April 2014[/editline] Also, the Z2 still seems like the best phone, now that they fixed the screen, added good speakers, and improved on the camera. The only complaint I am hearing is that the phone is too big, though you can say that about most phones on the market these days. Quick Poll: Agree - That's right, person, get the Z2! Indulge yourself. Disagree - Don't be stupid, person, your HTC One is perfectly fine, wait before upgrading.

He loves it too, it's a gorgeous phone and from what I've seen of it the sense skin isn't too bad, or at least better than the LG skin. My last phone was a rooted Droid Razr and it didn't do much for me really. There are only a handful of apps I want to get rid of but I've got 32 gigs so I'm not that worried about storage. I've got another launcher instead of the LG one too.

Jeez whats up with companies not liking people flashing custom ROMs onto phones, it's natural that people like a device, but may not like the UI. I'd say give Sense a few more weeks or at least a month, then decide whether you want stock or not. You might actually enjoy what features sense might have over stock too. Also that is also why I don't mind a bit of bezel on my phone, I can imagine trying to use the device with one hand and the device constantly registering part of my lower thumb. [editline]20th April 2014[/editline] Also for you camera guys, [url]http://www.xperiablog.net/2014/04/19/xperia-z2-image-stabilisation-compared-against-htc-one-m8-and-galaxy-s5/[/url]
My contract with Sprint isn't for service, I'm actually leasing my phone. I can trade it in next year for an upgrade but it has to be in like or near new condition. Or I can pay it off after I think two years and keep it. [editline]20th April 2014[/editline] Which is why I went with my giant "hideous" otterbox case.

It's voided if I put something like Cyanogen on it. I've done some preliminary research on it and it seems that I'll 100% lose insurance if I modify it in any way. Honestly I don't miss the side bezel, I'll just have to be a bit more careful with my klutzy hands.
Bleh that's pretty dumb, though I'm not suggesting you to flash a new ROM because you may lose money, but how would they know? Unlike Samsung which has Knox, or did HTC also add something just like that, I don't see how your carrier would find out. I guess do what person11 said and hold off till insurance is gone.

Maybe they did. Scrolled around the sense ui. The screen looks great. Didn't get to test out the speakers tho
you mean you didn't go to youtube to play Sanic at full volume and leave the phone like that? I'm disappointed.
Sorry, the live demo I was using wasn't connected to wifi not did it have a Sim card.
that's just sad. How are you liking your Nexus 5?
Whats the best comic book reader app for Android (can read downloaded .cbrs)? Paid or free doesn't matter.
DSiDewd wanted an app with translucent system bars that's entirely 33b5e5. I got bored so I made it.
