r3dm0nd Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 i am honestly really excited for this phone. Being on verizon and having that pure android experience is something we have practically never done except with the original droid but this should be a great phone.

diK Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 I'm on Verizon right now and out of contract so I'm eligible for an upgrade but I'm totally waiting on this phone to come out to upgrade. I also think I'm going to switch to sprint just because they seem like the only carrier out now who still has unlimited plans... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r3dm0nd Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 if you have an unlimited plan now you'll be grandfathered in and sprint really is horrible for data imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diK Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Yeah, but from what I understand, I will not be able to use the new contract price to get the phone which would mean that I would have to pay MSRP which is around $900 for this phone.

r3dm0nd Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 if your eligible for an upgrade you should have no problem with this especially being out of contract they will want to keep you as a customer so you have a little bargining room, maybe not on price but if they try to screw you out of your data plan which they shouldn't. I get a new phone practically every year so i know what I am talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diK Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 That's actually really good to know. Thanks Man. I'm definitly going to see what I can do. I mean everyone I know is on Verizon so i'd def like to stay with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

60Seconds Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Droids are the biggest pieces of shit ever sorry. I had one for 2 months when I dropped my old iPhone off my balcony by accident. It froze all the time, the apps were shitty, and so was the interface. I couldn't stand it anymore, I just went to the Apple store and bought a new iPhone for $600 or $700 off contract.

diK Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I actually agree that "droids" suck if you are referring to that particular phone. I had a droid for 2 years and at first i loved it but I also had so many issues with it freezing. I stopped using it a couple of weeks ago because it randomly stopped connecting to the verizon network. If you are referring to androids in general, then I really think you should try some of the latest phones with the android os on them and maybe you will change your mind.

I prefer endlessly berating him, but your idea works too. I thought it was supposed to be quad-band, but maybe not? I'm still waiting for them to drop some more info on it, since I'm halfway considering picking one up if it plays nicely with T-mo. They keep neglecting all of the dev phones I buy. First the G1, then the Nexus One. I just want delicious Ice Cream Sandwich stock rom support like everyone else. T_T Yeah, I know I'll end up with some of it once an unsigned leaks, or someone pulls in some of the AOSP code in, but it's been almost 2 years since my last upgrade.

60Seconds Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Fine, another example then. My CFO recently decided to switch everyone to Androids from Blackberries. I got to keep my Blackberry because I'm on the company board and I own an eighth of the company so he can't make me do shit. Ever since the first day, constant issues, emails don't get through, data is lost, the phones freeze. These are are S2's I think by the way. Also a lot less durable then Blackberries, you drop it once and the screen is cracked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also a lot less durable then Blackberries, you drop it once and the screen is cracked. You're talking hardware, not platform; it's not even a reasonable comparison. Hell, I had a BB way back in the day that I was happy enough with to hold off on getting a pearl, but then the USB port popped off of the board because it was a piece of shit. That in itself didn't mean the platform was bad, except for when it purged all of my everything because it couldn't manage memory properly. Your IT guys also need to know what they want out of the phones. Exchange server? Remote management? Better figure that shit out in advance. You need to be using the right app, with the right polling frequency or you're going to be sitting in your car, beating your dick, wondering why it's taking so long for your mail to come in. It's just like anything else; if you don't plan your implementation, it's going to fail. And for the record, my Nexus One has been through hell and back, and it's in great shape. I take the thing out into the field with me, and I have one tiny scratch on the glass. That's HTC hardware for you, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r3dm0nd Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 I personally have used all three like iPhone, Blackberries, and Androids. It really depends on what you want from the phone. iPhones are built solid but little to no customization, without jail breaking. Blackberries great solid phones, durable and i will always miss that keyboard, i actually keep my old tour for when i travel as its unlocked but might pick up a new 9900 for that purpose, and android tons of customization , may require root but easier than jail breaking and roots are allowed by some manufactures, a lot of the phones as well are very top of the line phones. Next year will be the release of the tegra 3 in phones, really 4 cores, technically 5, in phone while i use 4 cores in my main desktop i built a little over 2 years ago.

I don't have IT guys, these are property developers we are talking about, so Blackberries are better for the company. But yeah, I actually think most phones are pretty durable, it just depends on the person using it. my iPhone has never had any problems besides when I dropped it off the balcony by accident. When I traded my old one in for the 4S they gave me $300 for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
