    so it's been a while since i had this (if not the most) annoying phone, it's a blackberry 9220 and it's way too bad.

    i'm planning in change in it for something a little bit more "smart".
    i'm thinking about the htc one but that one is way over my budget, and there's the LG nexus 4 that sounds like a good idea.

    what i need my phone for is for -skype , -youtube n internets, -quality music.
    so please people tell me , what do you think i should buy as a good option for my next phone?

    (remember that i need a "not that expensive" one.)​

    Nexus 4 8GB model unlocked from Google will allow you to use any compatible service provider without any contract (including prepaid services). Services that I know that would be compatible with the Nexus 4 would be many prepaid services (I know a lot of US ones work, I would check with your local area to see if the prepaid services for your country will be compatible), or a T-Mobile Monthly plan. This will save you money in the long run.

    If you aren't worried about a new contract and would rather pay less on the phone with a contract, the Motorola Droid phones (Razr, Razr MAXX, etc) are good picks. Otherwise something less expensive but still very smart would be something along the lines of a Samsung Galaxy S3.

    I personally would steer away from Windows Phones. They're nice, but their app store is less than desirable. If that doesn't bother you the phones themselves are pretty sharp.

    If you post a more specific budget requirement I could help further.

    it's not fancy as s3 or s3, but it was cheap, and it does the job.

    Ugh, blackberry phones. I remember when my family were buying me a new phone for Christmas I had to ensure they didn't pick up a blackberry, so I enlisted my more tech savvy brother (when it comes to phones anyways) to pick one out to be on the safe side.

    How do people even type using their fingers? I tried once and failed miserably.
