Background:
Okay I'm getting a new phone in October and I'm having an awful time deciding. I currently have a Blackberry Curve. I haven't changed mostly because I HATE touch screen for texting. Every time I had to type on a touchscreen I get frustrated because of autocorrect or stupid suggestions. On a regular keyboard I go at amazing speeds, I impress myself sometimes and I have the keyboard memorized completely even the symbols, #'s and faces. I LOVE keyboards.
My blackberry is now literally falling apart at the seams, literally the rubber is peeling off I don't even have buttons on the side anymore i have to push the tiny circle with the tip of my nail.It also starting to be a real pain, I get notifications hours late and at random times it decides to have an application problem and doesn't let me text certain people unless I reset the phone which takes 20 mins! I've seen a bunch of videos and read articles and all they have done is made the decision harder. I would really like a custom suggestion so I'm going to list all of my needs and lifestyle, hopefully someone can help me out.
Why I'm down to these 2 phones:
I really do hate touch screens, I mean I love touch screens but the texting, HATE it and I never in a million years imagined I'd ever find a touch screen phone that I'd like. Until I saw the commercial for the S4. I was hypnotized and I don't know what it was but I just felt like that phone just fit me. But I could be wrong.
(I do not enjoy touch screen for phone use at all, people are always so excited about all that iPhone junk and galaxy stuff and I have NEVER seen ANY appeal just hearing someone rave made me gag. I instantly wanted this phone though, I usually hate advances in technology because I feel its dumbing everyone down with their dumb obsessions.)
All I really needed up till now was a phone that could text call, take pics and go on the internet. Now I saw the Q10 about a month later and having my mind set on the S4, my heart sank when I saw that keyboard.As a keyboard lover I was so excited to finally see what looks like a good phone with a KEYBOARD, FINALLY. But I had my heart set on S4 now I'm so confused I'm extremely scared to make the wrong choice. I won't be buying the phone so its not like if I make the wrong choice I'll be able to get the other.
What I need:
As I said I up to this point, only needed a phone to text, call, take quick pics, an go on the internet. But I'm starting college next year and I'm finding that my needs are expanding.
I'm going to be a business major and I'm planning on starting my own businesses, I mostly thought the S4 would suit that lifestyle.
I loveeee to read and i'm always on the internet just to read up on things.It doesn't mater how dumb a random question I hear is or something I randomly thought of or heard I google EVERYTHING CONSTANTLY, I'm a ninja at this point.
I loveeee good pics, I currently own a NIKON D5100, my love, but its a big bulky camera, I take pics of EVERYTHING ALL THE TIME. I'd love a good camera on my phone because I'm always taking quick pics of things since I only bring my camera along when I know for a fact I'm going somewhere where I'm gonna want gorgeous scenery pics or taking pics at home where I have 24 access to my nikon.
Oh the keyboard, although I love it, I can give it up if it means the S4 will suit me better.
(As long as there is no auto correct or suggestions that'll harass me constantly.)
I'm a huge gamer but I don't NEED to game on my phone, I REALLY enjoy it though.
BATTERY BATTERY BATTERY, that is a huge thing for me, I just googled both of them and they both got terrible reviews! With my current BB Curve I get an entire day of battery I wake up at 6am and sleep at around 10 or 11 pm with battery the whole time, no need to recharge. I usually only text and thats it, I only occasionally do other things for a couple seconds.
If anyone could help without being biased that would be great because I'm real worried after hearing everything if I should even switch.
