This is so my next phone. I can even live with the silly name. "Priv". The worst thing is, someone got paid for that.

That is how I feel, what's holding me back.

My first instinct is always to have my head turned by the stats. Then I remember what I actually do with my phone and I realise even those stats are more than enough for the web browsing, email, RSS feeds and audiobooks that are about 90% of my phone usage. Oh, and phone calls.

No, sorry... I have a 32 GB HTC One M9 and it's just about right. The 16GB HTC One M8 was full and couldn't do anything else really.

You look at what you do now, and plan for double that.

Well made ones last for years though, my old Nokia N900 was fine when I stopped using it.
If only someone else would make a good landscape slider...
