I was looking at AIO wireless, but I read the fine print and they cap download speeds at 8Mbps

I get better than tht on t-mobile HSPA+ and I hear AT&T's HSPA+ is below average.

Been on straight talk att for a couple of months. Only switched because of coverage issues at my job. AT&T HSPA+ for anything other than light web browsing is compared to T-Mobile its not even funny. Can barely load up HD YouTube or Vine videos with this shyt. The LTE probably solves this but the N4 only has the T-Mobile band LTE. I'm hurting out here but at least I can send texts from work.

Oh and $45 for "unlimited" everything is a win. T-Mobile 30 plan was getting annoying with the minutes. Always had to put an extra 10-15 dollars on that shyt

Nexus 5: New king of color accuracy

Today dutch tech site Tweakers.net released its review of the Nexus 5 and included a DE2000 color accuracy test comparison, the same Anandtech uses.
AFAIK this is the first public Nexus 5 review that has this test in it and the results a pretty good! In fact it is the best screen the site has ever tested.



Compared to the previous top 3:

-Apple iPhone 5c: 2.6

-Apple iPhone 5s: 2.7

-Nokia Lumia 1020: 4.1

Also note that the nits corrected battery test for browsing is only 2 minutes behind the iPhone 5s and the video test is only 10% lower.

This phone is official forget what you heard.

I got the same problem and lately I've been looking at that lumia like

I got T-Mobile though so if I want that 1020 I gotta find it unlocked and that price tag is gonna hurt.

The best way to cop is too buy it under contract at MS store. Then call and cancel contract

Any fees for cancelling?

It's hard to say because my speeds are so wack all I do is browse and that does nothing to my data usage. I imagine if I was you tubing a lot of shyt everyday I would have ran into a problem by now

its like 350 to cancel. Many stores will sell you the phone 199 in contract. Total comes out to 550.
