depends what you're looking for in a phone and/or what class if you're sticking with gsm.. but if you don't use mobile internet or do any data transfers, then just get a whatever phone

got a lot of cash to spend?? get anything vertu

want style?? some phones i was looking at last yr was the sony aino, lg bl40 and lg crystal

if you still want the internet function while not having it suck too much, maybe try looking at the sony ericsson satio released last yr and sony ericsson vivaz, both class 10 phones.. if you want something that may have kickass internet , try looking at the nokia n8 or e7<coming out next yr>.. class 33 and 32 respectively

idk man.. it's just like buying a head unit.. all depends on what features/styles you want

 

oh and if you get any non american phone, be careful where you buy from coz you wanna really make sure you're getting the correct frequencies for america

 

For sure check out the evo, have had It since June and hella love it!

 

samsung epic is the basically the EVO with a physical keyboard.

 

iphone 4.

I have the original droid and my buddy has the x. With every software upgrade they get more and more unstable. I am not impressed. Looking at my phone side by side to jeff's new iphone... I'd kill for an iphone.

It's a better platform with more time and money behind it. It's gonna be a couple more years before android catches up in my opinion.


But saying that... I'm mostly happy with the droid. Keyboard is useless.

 

If you don't use the internet get a motorolla razor.

 

Apple puts all their research and development and concentration on one phone, the iPhone. Other companies use resources to work on many other phones so you know the iPhone is well thought out. I know Apple makes other products too but they only sell one kind of phone while Samsung sells many different types and other products as well.

Also, notice how only after the iPhone came out, all other phones followed their design and layout.

 

yeah they have an iphone division. So it's not like the same people are working on the computers that are working on the phones.

 

i got an evo 4g and i love it, Verizon has the Samsung fascinate with the super amoled screen hella dope but verizon is just too much bank

 

How is the sprint network? Justin has that phone and loves it. Our phone bill is like $130 a month and that's with a 20% discount.

 

how you get 20% off i only get 10% lol, the sprint network is CDMA just like verizon strong reception i love it i got 5 line on a family plan and a single line for my dad .

 

Wife works in the medical field.

 

I have the iPhone 3g, played with 4g and will never own another iPhone again. Period. Multiple friends have the Evo 4g and cant speak highly enough about it, Sprint wasnt that great before but its a lot better now and a hell of a lot better than ATT.

Also the Galaxy S is a great phone, on any network. The wife and I are switching to Sprint, its cheaper and has great phones with great coverage. Im getting the Samsung Epic 4g and shes getting the Evo.

 

Evo - i have and love it. wish it had swype built in so i dont have to deal w/ the touch keyboard.

Epic - demo'd it from work... love that it has swype and it has a physical slide out keyboard and a better (but slightly smaller) lcd than the Evo. Only flaw i see to the epic is that its using Samsung's UI which i'm not a particular fan of....

Droid X - great phone. comparable against the Evo, but i like that it has a camera button.

Droid 2 - has a physical keyboard. love it.

 

Get the Epic if you are into a super nice Super AMOLED screen. Thing looks super clean and clear, plus it has swype which is boss. If you want a larger screen, 4G, front facing camera and just a great phone, the EVO. Sprint is cheaper than most cell phone companies and gives you the most. (If you say you work for Cisco, you get a 30% discount I believe). I get 20% off for working for City of San Jose. Sorry, but Verizon didn't offer me that.
