By the way, on smaller phones the newer Facebook updates are a mega drain on performance. Take that into account too if you use FB a lot x.x

Speaking of under volting the nexus 4 can be easily brought down by 100-150 mV. O.O
So can the S4. It depends on your specific device though for that range. I was actually running at -225 for a while the other day(with underclocking to 81-726)
I currently don't do much, but I am a developer for a game you should totally try out called AssaultCube Reloaded download here https://assaultcuber.codeplex.com/

O.O
BTW I switched my n4 to cyanogen 10.2 nightly and Trinity kernel and it's crazy fast now, also battery life is good enough for school use (had over five hours screen on time today and NO power drain while locked). And I still think that it's far superior to the gs3.

My mom bought a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 for free (plus a 2-year contract), so far it's a pretty good choice.

I finally cleared my sig after 4 years you're happy now?

That's good to hear because I'm wondering if I should buy a Note 2 myself. I've almost only heard good things about it

Yeah, Samsung is known to make pretty good phones. Myself I have a Galaxy Note (first of the name) and it also goes pretty well.

Guys, this isn't making stuff easier for me :P. I hope to be able to choose which phone I want once I get my hands on the n4 for testing it in the electronics store.
If you like my work: why not give me an internet?

The issue is that in most locations, finding a non-shit phone that is under $500 is next to impossible unless you run into a going-out-of-business sale. :P

On the Play Store the N4 is €249 here. They lowered the price recently beacuse the N5 is coming soon.

You can actually buy a non-shit phone for rather cheap, maybe even for free, but you'll have to buy a rather expensive 3-year contract with that. My mom was kinda lucky to get the Note 2 for free with a 2-year contract.
