Cell Phone News and Reviews

Upgrade or wait?

Posted: 05 Dec 2012 06:12 PM PST

My iPhone 4's contract on Verizon ends in about 2 weeks, and I made up my mind I would wait until after the new year to buy a new phone. I thought I was pretty set on the HTC DNA, but after hearing it has some mediocre battery life and only 11GB onboard storage, I was pretty dissapointed. My iPhone 4 has 16GB, and at times that isnt quite enough for me.
I absolutely hate my iPhone, keyboard lag is a regular occurence and happens everytime I text, by the time I am finished typing the thing is still on the 1st or 2nd letter. Just a ton of other little things that have made me want to stay away from iOS from now on. In looking at android phones I still feel the best one for me is the DNA. I am planning on upgrading probably the second week of January, but I feel like I shouldn't settle on a phone I will be stuck with for 2 years. My question is, do I torture myself by keeping this iPhone 4 until the next smartphone release (I've been eyeing the galaxy S4) or some other flagship android phone, or just upgrade now and get the DNA?
If I could have any phone on verizon I would have a HTC One X+ in my hands right now. Screen size isnt too big a deal for me, as long as its over about 4.2 inches. I am mostly looking for storage and a crap ton of RAM. I think that most smartphones out nowadays would satisfy my battery needs. I never have problems with mmy iphones battery. Obviously I want a pretty fast smartphone.
Is there a new release I'm oblivious to?
I think I would be willing to go with the iPhone 5s/6 if it has a killer feature, I feel like the 5 has just about nothing over the 4s.

Switching carriers is not an option
