wagner Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 What phone would you get? Wife and I are thinking about making the jump, we were both thinking Droid. I have an Iphone right now, but want to change it up. What phone would you get and why? We both use a metric fuckton when it comes to the internets on my Iphone so we will need a phone that can do this. What is the average on pricing on the plans? **** Please note I do not want this to turn into a phone and provider fanboi hatefest**** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
04silvrz Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 (edited) droid x - rooted and overclocked with the 1900m battery! i have never had a better phone. the stock droid x kind of sucks as it's loaded down with tons of nonsense, if you don't plan to root and overclock maybe there are better options. but once those things are done and u upgrade teh battery, it's the fastest most stable phone i have had in my hands. it BLOWS AWAY any other phone u put beside it. Mine is overclocked to 1.3 with milestone and setcpu with the Z4 root. and the droid touch screen keyboard is the only keyboard that compares to the iphone touch keyboard... imo http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs732.ash1/162630_1614698085722_1184415665_31377934_2421965_n.jpg Edited January 27, 2011 by 04silvrz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99FLHRCI Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Average pricing is $99.99 (700 min unlimited text)per line plus $30 for unlimited data. $9.99 per line for family plan plus data ($30) and text ($9.99) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Spam Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Or you can go to sprint and get the family share plan for $129 with unlimited everything. And both get evos. I have that plan with 4 lines attached and no problems. 3G is faster now after i hacked the proxy which was very easy. Rooting is simple and its a full root unlike the DroidX. And 4G is blazing. I get avg 5Mb and upto 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Spam Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Check out the map for Clear. It covers the whole city. I get it at least at my house in UA, and at my uncles in Westerville and at work in Polaris. Never went south to try but the map shows its available.

staywide8 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 The Bionic looks nice, but has power management issues. Motorola insiders are saying dont get that or the Atrix(same phone on att). There also prepping the Bionic for a q2 release. I like the Thunderbolt, and had considered it my next upgrade, but new photos are popping up about there new flagship HTC verizon phone. My advice------wait till MWC in February. I'd make my decision after that. As for me, I rock an Incredible, had an X, and before that the og Droid. My incredible simply is better hands down. HTC's build quality is far superior.

Guest Spam Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Thats because HTC has been making quality phones for a lot longer than MOto. If android never came out, we would hear about Motorola going bankrupt, not having the best years in their business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benner Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 I suggest either the Incredible or X as far as phones that are out right now. The Incredible is about 11 months old now and is still one of the most popular and fastest phones around and it's not had many problems reported with it other than some people don't like the battery life, but I can't complain. Plus it's very easy to root if you choose to go that route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredible vs X as of right now with updates, what is better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
