I had a Galaxy S3 for the Work Phone (AT+T) and have a S5 for Personal Use (Vz) and work just upgraded the S3 to an S5, so now I have a pair of them.
Love them both.

I get 5GB, and if I go over it just gets throttled instead of getting charged extra. Only 100 minutes though, but I don't use my phone for talking much.

Another option is last year's flagship phones. Not a lot of differences between last year and this year for most of them, except for price.

I agree. If you are changing from iPhone to Android, don't disappoint yourself to the point that you will want to go back. Get something that is actually better than the phone you are switching from.

Not an Apple "fanboy"; Just someone with knowledge of how software releases work and you're an idiot if you think Apple wouldn't be testing software on older hardware prior to releasing to prod.

But it's hard to argue with market share. iPhone is now the favorite of terrorists everywhere I hear.
