Im looking into getting a new phone to replace my SG SII, im replacing it due to battery/charging issues its developed over the last 6 months. Basically it doesn't keep track of accurate battery levels, keeps charging for 10% or so after its unplugged, randomly turns itself off and when doing so also kills battery to near 0%.
Example phone is at 90% just took off charger, slowly creeps up to 94% charge then turns itself off 5 min later(mostly turns self off within 30 min of coming off charger), I let it sit for 60 min in a completely off state, calls go straight to VM, phone responds to zero button input but when I turn it back on its hot enough to cook eggs on and reading less than 5% battery levels. It does this with 9 batteries so far that ive tried from 6 different manufactures so safe to say its the phone not the batteries.
So ive narrowed it down to Note 2 or SGS4. Any reason to wait for S4?
This phone would mostly be used for content consumption and games and texting, I have a company phone I use for 90% of my voice communications.
Or better yet suggest another phone that has all these features:
- 720p or greater res screen at least 4.5"
- SD card slot
- 2000mah battery or greater that is removeable
- quad core soc
- Supports LTE(Rogers Canada is provider)
- Wifi N band(dual band 5Ghz support preferred)
