Best Buy is running a trade-in offer right now where you can get up to a $262 GC for the N4.

While I like my N4 very much, a couple of things that I do not like about it is the glass back (which I have had to protect with a bulky case) and the fact that I don't get notifications immediately (I had read something about the Android build number being the problem). Other than those things, great phone - excellent reception and relatively fast.

I have decided to get the HTC One GPE. I like the idea of Beats Audio and the fact that it is overall lighter than my N4 (with the bulky case). I just hope that Android updates don't take forever.

Thoughts?
 
It depends read on the phone you are about to get. Sometimes the device updates may be for minor things like phone charging or if they go hightec and just update the entire software . But updates can be good one was sent and it repaired the signal but messed up sound. But every device is different. And if you root the device you may or may can fix with editing files. So read up on your new device and see what people have complained about

Not only will they make out like bandits on the replacement service costs over the life (2 years?) of the contract, but one wonders if they're refurbishing the trade-ins and selling those for the $599 that they're charging for what one can get for $249 new from Google.
