Same here. By 5pm on Monday, I'll be on a Nexus 5.
N4 is never being sold. Gonna clean it up, put it back in the box with all original packaging and store it.

I'll sell it for $100. The only phone I have stored is an original iPhone with all original packaging
Galaxy S4. The only thing I'd consider replacing it with us the note 3. I forgot to say the iPhone 5S as a considered replacement along with the note 3. To be honest I'm happy with my S4 though and the things that it lacks I'm able to make up for with my ipad mini and ipod touch, so an iPhone is probably unnecessary.

The gold 5S is super slick. I opted for space gray with black Apple leather case. Super stealthy combo.
On a side note, the thing I was really concerned about was the lack of Google Play Music All Access app for iOS.
Well there is an app for that...Gmusic 2 for iOS 7. The kicker; this third party app looks and performs better than Google's Play Music app for android.
Yeah, I see them go for big money on eBay. I'll just keep it and give it to my kids one day. By that time it could be a pretty penny towards and down payment on a house.
Yep, just traded away the S4 for an iPhone 5. Feels good to be back on iOS and I have to say that iOS 7 does play rather nice with the 5. Although, anytime I look at my Note 3 and then look back at the iPhone, I can't but laugh at the screen size. It feels so inadequate.
Anyways, it's only temporary until I can flip it and use the money towards a retina mini.

Still using the iPhone 5, it's still performing great on iOS 7 so I don't have any desire to upgrade or change phones yet. I might give the N5 or 2014 Nexus a look next year once I come off-contract if iPhones keep going up in price and the Nexus/Android can keep getting closer to iOS levels of responsiveness.
For me, the Note 3. Before this came out, I was anxiously awaiting it's debut. After having it for a few weeks, it's even better than I thought. Not only are the s pen improvements great (coming from an original note), but the phone is super fast, no lags, and the screen is beautiful.
Also, I have two lines (one for business). For the second, I currently have an iPhone 4. It's ok but no 4GLTE. so, I'm considering the Nokia Lumia 1520 or maybe iPhone 5 (if I can get a nice deal). the 1520 looks awesome and may kick start Nokia and MS to up their game on both hardware and software.

I bought a 5s yesterday to replace my 4s but I can't use it until my mobile provider sends me a replacement nano sim later this week.
i'd be curious to know if you will find the different screen size negligible. 5 vs. 5.7
I prefer the UI and larger screen of the Android device but the keyboard of the Apple device. I do find myself with the Droid in my hand more often than the iPhone...
I'm finally back to an iPhone 5. I had enough of my aging Galaxy Nexus. I did want the 5s but i'm not sure if it's just me but i like the feel of the 5 better than the 5s. The metal on the 5s doesn't feel as good as the 5.
GS4, rooted and rom'ed! Fairly happy with it although few annoying things such as speakers on back instead of front.
For those who like to flip/trade phones, how exactly does that work? Do you have to pay an activation fee every time you get the new phone?
