So my wife wanted a new phone because she was using a BB 9700 for a couple of years now and finally said she wanted something she could browse the web on and facebook, etc. She also wanted a touch only device. It was an early upgrade for her, so we had to pay some fees as well as whatever the cost of the phone is.
She was going to wait for the next iPhone, but wasn't really sure she wanted iOS because she had seen me with Android for so long and messed around with my phones and liked the interface. We went and got her the Galaxy S2 because it was cheaper than a newer device to upgrade to. She liked it, but it seemed like she was a little distraught over the fact that she didn't get a brand new device after waiting for years to get one. So then we saw a BB flyer that stated she could get the HTC One X for $0. We returned the Galaxy S2 to the Rogers store we got it from and went to BB. Turns out, that offer was only good for "new" clients. Ugh. So we got it anyway and after mail in rebate, the phone would be $99. She used that for a day, but was missing some of the ways the Galaxy S2 did things and wasn't a huge fan of the HTC Sense interface as well as the white phone. So, we went back to BB, returned the HTC One X and got her the Galaxy S3. It was $159 after mail in rebate.
Long story short, she's damn happy with the phone. Loves it in fact. I have to admit, it's a pretty nice phone and peppy as hell. She's happy, which means I'll be happy.
