Need Help Deciding on a new phone

Would you do a BlackBerry? I always liked BlackBerry and I probably always will. Battery life is awesome, and it always works great.

I have a BB for work. It lacks "fun"... great for emails, but other than that its a bit slow.

I guess I like it because of the keyboard. I like typing on something rather than a touchscreen. It does get a little slow but doesn't every phone get slow @ times?

From what I've read about the Nexus it seems to be made with cheap stuff for some reason. I was looking at it too until I read up on it. I think if you hold out and maybe wait a little longer you will be getting some great deals on android phones. Im due for an upgrade but am holding onto my DROID X for a while longer until a new Samsung comes out. My wife has an I Phone 4 and loves it but doesn't like how small the screen is. Have you thought about getting a phone off ebay used or refurbished to try for a while until you decide what you know you want in a phone your going to buy with a contract. There's a lot of different options nowadays..

Quote from CrappySyntax : First of all I have Sero. I finally giving up and paying the extra $20/mo for android and 4G, but I can't decide which phone I should go with. Also my 18mo of contract finally went up yesterday so more discounts. I am currently looking at the Samsung Galaxy SII or the Nexus S. I am very fond of Samsung products lately, but I also want to try out ICS. What is everyone's opinions on the two or if you have a better suggestion? Don't bother suggesting iPhone, it will never happen. I have a deep hate for Apple.
