To keep my internal storage free as possible and avoid lag? Maybe it doesn’t matter?

If you’re set on Android I’d wait for the S4.

If 16gb of storage with no option for expansion is good enough for you, then go for it.

I read that you can no longer get ATT sim cards for straight talk, and t mobile is all that’s available now. That is what’s steering me away from straight talk at the moment

I’m looking to get a RAZR maxx HD but don’t want to loose my unlimited data fit Verizon. Right now I use almost 10 gigs of data a month, and when I get my own house I plan on using my phone for internet so that will probably double. I have checked amazon but idk about getting a phone without some kind of warranty. Any suggestions on where to go?

if you want to continue to abuse/steal by tethering, then pay the price

full retail is close to 700, but look at how much that will save you in home internet!

What does tethering have to do with unlimited data? I don’t tether at the moment and besides, wasn’t there a lawsuit against Verizon for disallowing people to tether?

how do you use 10gb without tethering? i travel 4000 miles a month with pandora playing constantly and only use 4-5 gb

and last i knew tethering was still a feature and not free on the phones with minute plans on vzw

edit: the ruling only applies to metered data plans on the lte network

Streaming video is a bandwidth hog.

My phone is streaming music/audio at least 8 hours a day every day. Browser right now has 1.6 gigs on it. Pinger has just over a gig, didn’t think texting could accumulate so much. My cycle ends on the 4th by the way. When I’m home I just throw on WiFi.

I just bought a Bluetooth keyboard and having my Bluetooth mouse I just plug my phone into my TV. I hardly use my laptop now that I have the keyboard. My WiFi usage for Netflix alone is just under 30 gigs for a months time. I only just started using my phone like this to watch Netflix a couple weeks ago.

I have the Bionic, the only thing I don’t like about this phone is the battery sucks, even with the extended battery it sucks. Takes forever to charge and drains to fast. If I’m on a long trip and I use my phone for the GPS it hardly charges.
