Via Garibaldi 8 Posted February 14, 2011 Share #351 Posted February 14, 2011 The Verizon iPhone has another flaw.http://www.9to5mac.com/51768/verizon-iphone-cant-swap-calls-do-more-than-a-three-person-conference-call Unless you're on of those tech geeks or the business type these features aren't that important. It's nice that AT&T offers all of these features on their network, but pointless since they can't even keep folks connected. At least w/Verizon you can stay connected and such and I'm saying this as an AT&T/Verizon customer. I still haven't decided yet if I'm switching to Verizon completely or not once my contract is up in May. :confused: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTK246 Posted March 27, 2011 Share #353 Posted March 27, 2011 So yeah...how about when 4G phones on T-Mobile go AT&T...will those need to be replaced too? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Sith Posted March 28, 2011 Share #354 Posted March 28, 2011 So yeah...how about when 4G phones on T-Mobile go AT&T...will those need to be replaced too? IF the merger goes through, if you want 4G data speeds, you'll have to use a AT&T phone, any T-Mobile phone will only receive EDGE/2G speeds. We have about a year or so for a decision which might not happen, we'll see. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have about a year or so for a decision which might not happen, we'll see. I read that some new T-Mobile phones are designed to be compatible with both 3G networks. I wonder how this'll play out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Sith Posted April 14, 2011 Share #356 Posted April 14, 2011 I thought I'd bring back this thread with a bunch of new toys out and in the wild along with some news. First, the new toys. The New T-Mobile Sidekick 4G. Sprint's Kyocera Echo, I personally like this one. For you Boost Mobile folks, the Samsung Galaxy S Prevail The T-Mobile G2x. One of two phones for T-Mobile with a Dual Core Processor The HTC Evo View 4G & Evo 3D The much anticipated HTC Thunderbolt and T-Mobile's newest Dual Core Processor phone, the HTC Sensation 4G Other phones can be found in the respective profiles I linked. And in the news world, several HTC phones will be getting Android 2.3 during the Spring & Summer. The T-Mobile G2, HTC Evo Shift and a few others will be getting the update. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cait Sith Posted April 15, 2011 Share #359 Posted April 15, 2011 I'm looking on getting that G2x when its released. I was leaning towards the G2x, but I'm leaning towards the Sensation 4G mostly because LG's build quality with their smartphones are never as solid as they said it is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rr4567 Posted April 15, 2011 Share #360 Posted April 15, 2011 If T-Mobile stays, I'll be keeping my HD2 If T-Mobile = AT&T, I move to Verizon. First phone: HTC Thunferbolt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Messino Posted April 22, 2011 Share #362 Posted April 22, 2011 SaaaWEEEET! My wife got this for me for my birthday. This phone is pretty nice, battery life sucks but on most 4G phones thats how it goes right? The internet flies on this thing and youtube as well as pandora stream seamlessly. The Keyboard is kinds akward and takes some getting used to so I use the On screen keyboard half the time. Android OS and 4G is what really makes this phone worth it. it was $399 after the rebate it came down to $299. I am also able to WiFi or USB teather it to my laptop. I get download speeds of 2Mbps and it uploads about the same. It has Android OS 2.2 and has been rooted! Specs: CDMA/ LTE 4G 2 Gigs internal Memory / 32 Gig SDcard (I have 16GB installed) CPU: Hummingbird 1000Mhz WiFi 3.2 MP camera 320x480 screen (should have been bigger) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been a fan of Samsung's cramped keyboards (from a personal prospective) which is why I made my switch over to HTC and the G2. While I am posting, lemme throw up a few other goodies. The T-Mobile G-Slate The Blackberry Playbook, I actually like this thing to some extent For the Droid X doubters, gingerbread on the Droid X (the legit version) Reviews of the much anticipated T-Mobile G2x And the review of the HTC Thunderbolt 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Up Front Posted April 22, 2011 Share #364 Posted April 22, 2011 God Almighty, that Samsung phone has a tiny ass screen for all the features it has. The resolution should be the other way around; 320 x 480 is the resolution of the old 5th Generation iPod (a.k.a. the iPod video), and that's from five years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East New York Posted April 27, 2011 Share #367 Posted April 27, 2011 Yeah, HTC's are that deal! I will have had my EVO for a year this summer, and haven't had one single problem. And I dropped it in the toilet last year! I just discovered Firefox for Android yesterday too! I love everything except for video viewing, a few other minor flaws they need to fix. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cait Sith Posted May 8, 2011 Share #370 Posted May 8, 2011 Any opinions on the new BlackBerry Playbook (iPad-esque) tablet? I LOVE it! Honestly I'd pick that up over the Android Tablets and of course, the iPad. The way RIM made the playbook was astonishing, flawless multi-tasking, flawless flash capabilities. The front facing camera is absolutely clean and the performance is slick. I really want to pick one up. The one other thing I'd get is the new Asus Transformer, the only Android tablet with an attachable KEYBOARD! Making it the only tablet with a keyboard & touchpad! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Via Garibaldi 8 Posted May 11, 2011 Share #372 Posted May 11, 2011 How has AT&T collapsed? I'm sick of T-Mobile and the constant dropped calls and failed attempts at sending out text messages. I'm anticipating for the day that either my mom's contract expires and she goes to a different network (preferably AT&T) or I gets me a job, get a shared plan with my friend and get a contract on AT&T. May I mind you, my 14-year-old niece (don't ask) has the first generation iPhone and it still provides excellent service. AT&T isn't that much better than T-Mobile. I know because I left T-Mobile for AT&T and have regretted having AT&T. I broke my contract with my data card because I was so disgusted with my service and got FiOS at home and have loved it. Now I'm waiting for my cell phone contract to expire w/AT&T so I can switch to Verizon. Granted, Verizon doesn't have tons of great phones like AT&T does, but at least I'll have reliable service where I can make phone calls and surf the web relatively quickly. Once I see how my phone service is w/Verizon, then I'll probably get a data card w/them as well for the old laptop or I ay just get a new one soon since I'm due soon anyway. :cool: I've missed not having internet when I'm on the express bus and such, but I've been making do so far. The thing is I'm going to wait a bit until a smartphone comes out that I like w/4G service. I've been ripped off w/AT&T way too long and I am well overdue for some real cell phone service. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll think twice about that before making a final verdict because I said the same thing until I checked out their full line of high end and mid-range phones. They both have some great phones but Verizon imo has the upper hand when it comes to specifications. AT&T rocks when it comes to pricing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
