What smartphone do you have

Post by TheRandom1 » Thu Oct 16, 2008 3:12 pm

OK guys, since Nitehawk is adding the fact that he has a blackberry to every post now, I figured I'd see what the rest of us have for a smartphone?

I have a Samsung Blackjack. Good for everything but Youtube it seems... pretty nice.

My roommate has an iPhone. As a music player and cool toy it's great. As a phone it sucks balls. Go figure.

Samsung Glide best laptop I have ever used, and by far the worst phone.

T-Mobile SDA (old as hell smart phone)
iPhone (1st gen)
and soon to add to the list...G1

I might still get a BB Pearl one of these days for a beater phone but the G1 is going to be my "beater" for awhile. My iPhone is too fragile even with a good case.

Samsung Glyde, worst phone ever! Dump that phone as soon as you can, the touchscreen is worthless. My phone worked properlly for the month, maybe month and a half, then it started getting worse.

The touchscreen would go inactive, or I'd want to hit one button, but it would hit the 'back' button or something else. I would have to take out the battery and do a hard reset almost 10 times a day. Even after that, it still was a peice of shit.

Great idea, but damn, Samsung sucks at touchscreens.

Anyone have any feedback/reviews from the HTC Mogul (or otherwise the XV6800 for verizon)? I want WM, and a full qwerty keyboard...

i cant keep a phone for more than two months.

i send/receive about 17,000 texts,pics,vids,emails a month.

oh and the glyde is aweful. neat idea, terrible outcome. aweful touchscreen. worked for maybe 2 weeks. non responsive, then clicked everything. blah. vibrate feedback would fade too.

i've had a ton of phones. maybe i just dont like phones? haha i cant settle. had the centro....thought it was doodoo. balckberry=doodoo

Had the 1gn iPhone - went through 6 of them because they kept breaking and I'm not even hard on phones. I got the last new one, which was number 7 and sold it on ebay for 550 and bought the 16gig iPhone 3g. 3g seems to be a better product but the phone aspect of the phone sucks unless you use the headphones. I love it for texting and the internet. Plus with the iPhone I get a 20% discount on my rate plan through Purdue.

You're retarded. I've had the PPC 6700 Apache, PPC 6800 Mogul and they don't compare to the Centro at all. Their lack of ram and overall buggy and slow ass interface is just...horrid. Leave windows for PC's because they obviously can't optimize one correctly on a phone.

what version of WM were you using?
and it depends on your goals for the phone,
if you just like your cute little keyboard and the color then yes palm is the way to go.

heard from several people that they loved this phone...
all depends if your a windows person or not. I love windows, even though it can be buggy at times.


played with centro's at my old store, and also friends. i didn't care for it. The keyboard is so tiny you need basically a stylus to push the buttons. Also heard of alot of issues with them. My buddy would receive texts days later and vm's too.
