Okay, I admit it. I bought an LG G3 yesterday

My daughter dropped her Windows phone Monday outside a restaurant after we had lunch and the its screen shattered. So, after work, she bought a Samsung Galaxy S5 to replace it along with another S5 for her hubby. Monday evening she filmed a video of her daughter (she's a spitting image of my daughter) and sent it to me. Well, the video quality sucked. It was compressed and raggedy. It was worse then videos sent to me when she used an iPhone. I reached the conclusion if I want quality videos of my granddaughter, I need to be using the same platform the video was created on. It pained me tremendously to walk into that store yesterday and buy the white LG G3 freaking Android phone. I swore for years that I would never use Android but seeing vids of Alayna means more to me than my hated of Google. Anyway, the hardware aspect of the phone is sweet but I still hate Android. I really miss the Nokia 1520's Live Tiles. I'll keep my beloved 1520 for a backup phone but I miss using it already. i ordered a couple Spigen cases for the G3 today so I guess I'm pretty much married to the reality of using Android now. GRRRRRRR! Great phone, terrible OS.
BTW, the soon to be released Samsung Note Edge is a kick ass phone.

starkers, i was offered $550 for my 1520 and my PMA charging mat. i am seriously considering it. I told him I'd let him know by Thursday if I accept his offer. that would be more money to spend on my granddaughter for xmas. i truly love that phone but the offer seems pretty darned good. to quote mellencamp and tritt, "what say you?"
If you believe it is a good deal and the cash would be useful at Xmas, and you can bear to part with it, then I say go for it. It's not like it would entirely leave you without a phone, and who knows, a bit further down the track you may find a new Lumia offering that's quite to your liking.
At the end of the day, though, it's totally your decision.
