Still worth buying?

Hey guys,
I'm currently using an Xperia X1, and frankly still happy with it..
However, I've fallen in love with the Android platform and the versatility it offers which I don't find on my Xperia.
But, since I'm pretty attached to having a physical keyboard, the HTC Hero is nothing for me, and i don't trust Motorola, so the G1 is the only option left.
My questions to you are, do you think it's still worth buying, and how will it hold up to the upcoming phones that are released?
Regards,
Ryu

I can't predict the future.... Right now the G1 is your best option if you want a hardware keyboard.

I can predict the future. I just bought a slightly used crystal ball from ebay and it's telling me you will find long lasting happiness with a g1.

oops double post

nice supreme, is that why you was downloading porn all night? Did your slightly used crystal ball tell you there's absolutely no sex in the near future for you?

the g1 is gonna have the most support compared to the moto and the lg, you know where to look when you have a question Im sure the development will go on for years, check out the dash (excalibur) how olds that phone and there is still development going on there keeping it up to par with 09 phones.

i would wait a month or so and see how the holiday phones stack up.

There are 2 or 3 android phones to be released in the coming months. I recall seeing an internal memo from T-Mobile a few months back. I want to say there was a G2 scheduled for release (with a hard keyboard) and another phone w/o a keyboard to be released in the latter half of October and early November.
I couldn't find the memo, but here's an article worth checking out.

what an anniversary gift -_-

oh Lord Android i have sinned. see yesterday was my girlfriends n I's anniversary. and she had a "surprise" for me. i was hoping it was a threesome with her beautiful ass step sister lol anywho, when i come to open up the wrapped box she handed to me, it was an iphone 4......my heart sunk for a moment. i didnt wanna be a bad boyfriend n curse her out so i accepted it. having using it for a day its not as bad as i thought it would be but still. im so used to android that this doesnt even compare to Android. cant even find a good twitter app that pushes my mentions and DMs. anyways, i dont wanna be a bad boyfriend so ill snuggle my Nexus One in its white Google box for now. it needs a good rest after all the heavy usage the past months i gave it.
anyways enough about my rant. do you guys use any OS besides the Android OS which is clearly the best of all i currently have a G1 unlocked, an N1, and an iPhone 4. what about u guys?

you should leave her...my girlfriend knows that i own a nexus and knows why i do...so she would never buy me an iphone...go for the threesome an then leave her

Sell it and tell her it was broken

ah not a bad idea at all lol jailbreak it and sell it for a fortune on ebay

Put android on the iPhone so both are happy

I'm not going to go as far as to say you should leave her, but my gf knows I don't want no stinking iphone..

"lose" it
10char

Yeh, after selling it then buy her some flowers

What did you get her? You should sell the iPhone and get her an Android phone!

I have a great idea for your iPhone. Put the sim back in the N1, and use the iPhone as an mp3 player and to play games on (after jailbreaking of course). This way you will save you N1's battery life, and if someone steals your iPhone while playing on the train, it's just an iPhone, not your Nexus. lol

Just give it to me lol

If a girl is dating a boy with a nexus one, and isn't smart enough to realize that just the fact that you own a nexus one likely means you wouldn't ever want an iphone...she's not worth dating.
Sorry but just the fact that she would assume "he doesn't have an iphone? Well everyone knows iphone is the best, I'll get him one" spells trouble in the thought process department.

*facepalm*

The iPhone 4 is an awesome phone and superb hardware. The only problem is the OS is just boring and not as good to me.

Iphone4's retina display n hd capabilities with froyo would definitely rock...

Ouch, for a tech geek, that's the equivalent of expecting to be the giver in a threesome with her step-sister but instead being the receiver in a threesome with her step-father.
I kid I kid. And come on everyone, the significant other of every tech geek isn't always going to be a tech geek themselves. She tried doing something sweet (wouldn't have happened in my case though **cough cough**) and he didn't want to upset her by turning it away.
So here's the solution... use it for a couple weeks and then ask a friend that she doesn't know to pretend to mug you and steal the phone. Or "accidentally" drop it in the sink while you're doing dishes. Then you can say "oh no! I'm so sorry. At least I've still got my Nexus One though."
EDIT: And for the record, I'm not knocking the iPhone 4. For what it is, it's actually a great device. Its downfall is Apple's tight policies over it (my opinion). But a tech geek is harder to shop for than a woman.

Anyone else getting the Virgin Mobile Optimus V?

I heard that Virgin Mobile is going to come out with the Optimus V which is going to be priced at $150? Truth?
If so, I may consider it for sure! I really like the series and very good for Android.

I got it on Friday from Target $149.00, activated it and it is great. Great phone a huge upgrade from my Samsung Intercept.

I agree.. Just picked one up yesterday and it blows the intercept out of the water!! What a joke that phone was.. And $100 more? You gotta be joking me Get the LG!

Yeah I just got one from Target. If you don't see one give the DPCI for it because it doesn't show up on the system otherwise.
Very nice and inexpensive. I was thinking about the Intercept before I heard of this because it was $170 at Best Buy. Based on what I read this is the better buy, even for someone like me who NEEDS a physical keyboard. Gotta break out of the comfort zone if you want the bread, eh

I just got mine today. Have the $25 dollar package and love it. Left Cricket's unreliable network where I was using a flashed HTC Eris. Couldn't get 3G no matter what tutorials I followed on this and other forums. I'm really glad I made that change.

I made the switch from an AT&T Captivate. Fed up with paying 130.00+ monthly for bad coverage and a phone that will never see froyo. Porting took less than 2 hours and I have working NAV! I was a little apprehensive about switching to pre-pay, but so far the coverage has been 110% better, and the VM reps are great! I didn't sit on hold even once in the 4 calls I made to them after buying the phone. If you are on the fence about buying this phone, please allow me to nudge you in the right direction!

Just got one at Best Buy last weekend for $129. Great phone. Love the dedicated camera button. Coming from an Evo this things screen is small but the phone is still quick and is the perfect for factor for pocket-ability.

Buyers Remorse- Need help.

I bought a HD7 two days ago and am having serious buyers remorse every time I go into threads looking into the future of the device ranging from roms to regular apps.
I have a touch pro 2 as well as an HD2. I bought the HD7 for 150$ and its Tmo branded, I already RSPL'd it and am on Deep Shining I just want to know everyones opinion on the future of the phone.
Any help on reaching a decision is appreciated.

i came from Touch Pro2, as well. why the buyers' remorse with HD7?

I'm not saying the phone is bad it looks really really nice the reason I am having buyer's remorse is because of the future of the phone. I keep seeing threads where people have given up on the phone and about future roms/apps.
That's really the only problem I have, just cant tell how long the phones legs will be for the future compared to the TP2 and the HD2.

the HD7 will be getting confirmed updates through to Apollo, aka WP8.
no sure what apps you can't find, but i have found every app i have needed/wanted.
Windows Phone is still in its infancy, it will only get better with age.

really, already? i am available for an upgrade, but i am waiting for WP8 and HD screens.

See thats what I mean. Lots of people are leaving the phone so fast, I barely got the phone and have an upgrade in Feb.
I was just wondering if it would be better to just return it and wait till Feb/March for a better phone.

i am not sure why, either.
only advantage the HTC Titan has is better camera(s)/cpu, i find the large screen a disadvantage because of the resolution.
all the Nokia phones have only the cpu going for it, everything else is lame compared to HD7.

Was decidng to take it back to the store and look for the phone on craigslist but even there almost noone has the phone! I barely find a handful of people with the phone but everyone is trying ot sell that Evo 3D.
I am thinking returning the phone and just lurking craigslist for the phone but I dont know if people will be selling it or if it will die off quickly which it seems to have done.

Replacing my bionic with an iphone 5!

Cant wait to start camping in front of the apple store so i can pick my new phone, i want to be the first i'm so excited!

That's what I was thinking. Why waste your money on yesterday's technology?

He was setting himself up for disaster. Thats like going to an Obama rally and telling everyone your gonna vote for Romney. I'll give you a hug and say have fun... but thats all the love your gonna get on this forum.

Either he's being sarcastic or he's just wants attention. The iPhone 5 is behind in hardware. My brother is an iPhone users but not one of the idiots who just buys an iPhone because of the name. My brother and I always talk about the differences in our phones and he knows that iPhone is behind in the hardware department. Apple makes good products however they know they have a leash on majority of it's users who will follow them like lemmings off a cliff. Many people who buy iPhone don't even know what they are buying. It's more of a status symbol, a fad, a bling, whatever you wanna call it. Personally I don't care if you're getting an iPhone. You're succumbing to Apple's tactics and you will keep buying inferior phones cause they know they got you hooked. I could go on and on about it. Just don't let the door hit you on the way out.

The bar I go to [too often perhaps but that is another story] had a bunch of peeps that iphones. Now I don't think but only one has a crapple. They all jumped ship to Androids and like them much better. Regardless if the OP is honestly enthusiastic about it more power to him/her.

The OP is entitled to do as he wants. He wants the iPhone5 then so be it. I'm pretty sure most of us don't care and posts like these aren't necessary. It's pretty much like waving a piece of meat at a bunch of hungry wolves. This post is really going to get nowhere. GL with that iPhone5 and be prepared to stand in line for hours. My brother did that last year and he's smart enough to preorder this one this time.

I figured they were sarcastic but you never know. As far as the iPhone goes it is a solid, easy to use phone for people that aren't in to messing with phones. They can check there email, listen to music, put it on an iPod dock, play Angry Birds and of course make phone calls. My wife has one and has a hard time using my Bionic on ICS. Another issue that some people have is that they buy and android phone and its Junk from the get go. There are dozens of different makes and models on all the different carriers and and you buy a crappy device it can taint there taste for android cause they think ALL the android phones are bad like theres. Apple has one solid phone that is the same on all carriers. I have a friend that had a Droid 2 and now has a HTC Thunderbolt. He IS getting the iPhone 5 because of all the bad experiences he's had with the HTC. He has never used ICS or JB which I believe is the BEST thing to happen to an Android device.
I LOVE macs. Always have. I have a Mac Mini that I run OSX 10.6.8 and Windows 7 Professional on. It gives me the best of both worlds. I won't knock the iPhone, but with the solid hardware that is coming out and the vastly improved OS's like ICS and JB I think Google is on to something...

How is this worth mentioning? Has nothing to do with the Bionic.

Dude look in front of the apple store before the new iphone is out

This vid really explain alot about iphone users
http://pocketnow.com/2012/09/13/iphone-5-fake-video/

I think IPhones (doesn't matter which one) are good phones but not for dudes. It's like a dude buying a new VW Bug, totally not cool.

I never understood why people have such a hard time with android to say that apple is easy? Its like, wow. Android isn't hard either.
