Carwhore Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 And I need to get a new one. I'm with Verizon, I'm on the companies plan and I do believe we have an upgrade available on one of the lines I can use. My question is what should I buy.I had a Droid (the first driod) and it was a big pos. Had 3 different ones under warranty and it was always slow, maybe from looking at to much porn lol. But Should I stay with an andriod or just buy the iPhone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casper Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Asking iPhone or Droid is about like asking Ford or Chevy.But I'd go with the iPhone if I were you. Or find a cheapo to use for a few months and see if the iPhone 5 gets released this summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chevysoldier Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 I'm thinking of getting the DX here in a few days with my upgrade. Or the D2, haven't decided. Curious to see what people say on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a blackberry I could use to wait, but I'm guess verizon won't get the 5 at first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's my biggest concern if I get that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReconRat Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 DoidX. I got one. One of the guys here threw his droidX across the room at me. It didn't bother it at all when it hit the wall and floor. They don't snap in half.I got the double sided hard shell case. I know I can be rough at work. I ran over one phone with a powered floor lift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran over one phone with a powered floor lift.That's what worries me, since I work in an auto shop, I can be tough on phones. That's why I have a boulder right now. My other boulder got run over by an F350 dually and only cracked the screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Butters Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 i work construction and work at UPS and my phone has held up fine in my pocket....when i had my boulder i beat it to death more-so because i knew i could lol....ide toss it down the ground if i was busy, or set it next to the pool, or whatever....ive had to change my habits a little bit, but theres no way i would ever go back to a flip phone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazy_red Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 I say go with the HTC Thunderbolt. Thats what I have and it is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollywood3586 Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 I say iPhone.. But that's just cause I love my phone.. Listen to Casper. I'm hoping to get the iOS 5 this summer. iPhone ftw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Butters Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 (edited) if youre going 4g - wait for Droid Bionic!dual core processor, higher resolution screen, and a lot more battery life than thunderbolt....both phones kill iphone 4 - no specs are out for iphone 5 yet though Edited April 4, 2011 by Steve Butters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
