well i have planned to stick to SGR until it totally breaks :D

well my requirement is
> atleast dual core SoC with good class GPU (i love gaming)

> screen must be between 4 to 4.5 inches (i hate big phones like note/s3 they are very uncomfortable to carry in pockets)

> screen should be LCD or AMOLED not based on pentile matrix, i prefer LCD as they are having high brightness and great outdoor visibility.

> good dev support

> and main important thing is that SoC is made by companies like TI, Samsung, Snapdragon who releases their proper sources. it will probably wont be having nvidia SoCs.

> next device will be 90% samsung as that phones doesnt comes with locked bootloaders and after rooting we can still claim warranty by just resetting counter and flashing stock rom :cowboy:

100% nexus.... while the hardware is often outdated by other flagships the timely updates make up for that..... i can no longer hav a phone that has been promised an update since like ever while everyone else has moved on

Nexus 100 % It says that the next generation of nexus will be produced by several manufacturers and will also be greater choice and probably cheaper :D

At least for one more year i will stick with our Galaxy R....

My next device will be Nexus or flagship device from Samsung (Lot's of developers will be there, so we will be having lot's of custom ROM's ;))....

mine will be a sony xperia series.. their camera and music quality is much better even for mid range phone, quicker upgrade and fully supports the dev community...SGR might be my last Samsung phone...

I'll keep my SGR for one more year no matter it remain stuck on GB. To taste ICS/JB i'd rather buy a tablet..... probably a nexus

Not at all :( Devs support is really poor there compared to Sammy or HTC. About upgrade Their flagship Xperia S got ICS update couple of months later than S2. (After I sold my SGR I was choosing between HTC One S, Xperia S and Galaxy S2).

About music and especially camera - you're totally right. I guess Xperia has the best camera.

    I'd recommend not to change to iPhone. Our phone has a long life support now that we have CM10 and will definitely have 4.2 as soon as it gets released. Our screen is much bigger and the phone has very good specifications in all fields.

    @Vikesh: You don't need iTunes anymore for music. My friend, H2CO3 created libipodimport which allows users to add songs to iPod directly without iTunes. It's an amazing project, check it out if you have a jailbroken iDevice.

    I won't get another phone in a while. Especially now that we have ICS and the needed stuff for JB. Great!
