I use to be a isheep I had to jailbreak it to be happy. I loved to customize.
Than one day I got an s3 and never looked back.

I now feel sorry for iPhone users who think their phone is superior. It's a great phone! I recommend it to people who just want something simple, but it's far from being top of the line.

I totally agree. The iphone may be easier to use for some people but the smaller screen just doesn't cut it by today's standards. Apple should have begun releasing an iphone with a much larger screen and have a smaller one called the "iPhone mini"

Probably normal. You just went from excellent to very good.

Watches 'wear in'. If it stabilizes at +1 min/week that's very good. If it continues to speed up past 3 months you have a problem.

Has it been gaining gradually or just all of a sudden?

Lol, I have a Nexus 4, so I don't have expandable memory or a replaceable battery, and I still think the screen is too damn big...

But its fast! Real fast!

You can have all the expandable memory you want via USB OTG

I personally don't see one as being better than the other. Both have their merits and their quirks. I had to jailbreak to be happy on an iPhone, but I have to root and find a good ROM and a good kernel on Android, which is by no means difficult, but it still needs work out of the box.

I do however like being on a Nexus phone and having Vanilla from the get go... That was a big factor in me choosing what phone to go with.

And man, I still don't like my screen. 4.7" is too damn big. I gotta stretch my thumb to reach anything... 4" is perfect in my eyes, and I honestly can't think of a better form factor than the iPhone 5. And sadly, there are hardly any Android phones now with decent specs that are still in the 4" range. They are all giants.... I can honestly never see myself with a Note or S4, they're just too damn big...

I'm on a Nexus 4 on 4.2.2 LiquidSmooth v2.9 and a Matrix Kernel... I still need to mess around with things to get my battery life where I want it though. I'm a pretty heavy user and I don't tend to Micromanage so I'll have to look for some CPU profiles and things that are aggressive enough to meet my demands....

It's on my list!! I'm just gonna try to experiment with as many ROMs and Kernels I can get my hands on, and LS happened to be first on my list. From my research it seemed to be the most stable and had some decent features. I'll def. check out some AOKP ROMs soon though...

Not sure, after week 7 or so I was like "great, my watch basically does not need adjusting, I'll trust it from now on" and then last week I realized it was off by 4 minutes, I adjusted, and now it's gained around a minute (don't remember exactly where I set it relative to the correct time).

I went to NYC for the weekend to chill with some friends, and I saw a BMW S1000RR parked next to Times Square...that thing was beautiful. I stood awkwardly in the street for several minutes staring at it.
