Newd Cell phone

[Bean Counter]

Need me a new 'Bamaphone. Whose bought one recently and do you like it?

I currently have an iPhone 5. I have come to loathe Crapple Macintrash but I will give credit where its due: this phone is extremely durable. I mob out without a case and have dropped it on its head more times than my kid and its still ticking. My wife and I have both splashed ours with some liquid and they have survived. My understanding is that the Phablet sized 6+ is more delicate so I am looking at maybe the 6/5s or a similar Android competitor. Durability for drops from my spastic fingers is the #1 factor. please feel free to share your "I dropped it and it survived!" stories 

Other phone: HTC One (m8), Google Nexus 6, Motorola Droid Turbo, etc ??

Galaxy S5 and Droid turbo are both worth looking at (next month the S6 comes out). I have the Motorola Droid Maxx (latest Version) and I love it, best phone I've ever had! pictures and video are 10x better than my Apple 5s work phone and the battery just keeps on going!

I was told that the Galaxy 6 will not have the water resistance that the 5 was built with.

My wife dropped her iPhone 6 and broke the screen 1 week into ownership. Fortunately her company gave her the wrong phone so she gave that one back and they handled it. I'll get a 6 one of these days. The 6+ is enormous. Not going that route. Battery life on the 6 is pretty awesome. She often goes into the 2nd day before recharging and that's fielding dozens of emails and text messages a day from work.

I love my new Note 4. Fast. Decent camera. SD storage. Not an Apple.

I have a Galaxy S5.  After having nothing but Motorola Android phones for the past 5 plus years.  I love this phone.  I have dropped it plenty of time but I have to add that I have a Otter box case on it.  The great thing about these Samsungs is that you can remove the battery and put in a new one if needed, mini SD card slot to add storage and great battery life.  This phone so far has been far better then any Motorola phone I have had.

Watched my wife go through the iPhone thing and never really liked it that much. I've never really cared for the whole proprietary architecture of Apple products so when I went to upgrade, I went to Android and settled on a Galaxy 4. It was cheap and has way more features than I'll ever need and the Galaxy cameras are some of the best on the market. I got the Tech21 case for it and it must work. I've had the phone slide out of my pocket several times and take a header on concrete and never miss a beat.  https://www.tech21.com/technology

My I-Phone 6 made it through an immersion in the toilet!
I really like it, though I will echo what has been about the 6-plus; it's too damn big! 
My buddy has one and jokes all the time about it being his tablet.

I'm afraid I can't help ya as I still rock an iPhone4.  It's going on 5 years now and has been rock solid.

I second the Droid Maxx. This is one tough phone.

I have the 6+ and an otter case.  It's not water proof but has saved it a lot of times already.  Kind of big but I have yet to miss place it and I would always loose my other one.

What a bunch wuzzies. I can't believe I am hearing this from men.
Really?
Here is the phone I carry.
Carried it 20 plus years. My 3rd one. This is a mans phone, made to drop.

Me too. Well, I'm rocking a 4s. It's been bombproof. In the 4 years I've had it, it's been dropped a few dozen times. Once into the toilet, left it in the front yard for 2 days in December, takes a licking, keeps on ticking.

As long as I only watch elk kills and check google earth with it it makes me more of a man!
