what will be your next phone? - Thunderbolt General

i switch phones very often, usually every 3-4 months... but since i bought my tbolt at best buy i have to hold onto it till at least january which will be a challenge for me.
i know verizon doesn't always carry the best top of the line phones but ill be looking at the next iphone or hopefully the galaxy s 2 early next year.
what might be your next phone after the tbolt?

I keep them until I get my next free phone. Paid $10 at best buy for my bolt.

i got ripped off then being a new customer.

The TBolt is my Next Phone!
I just got the dang thing! Just rooted it and installed DasBAMF stripped 1.8.6 and the OTA radios from 7/8. Not upgrading the hardware for a LOOOOONG time.
Oh, FWIW, I paid $99 with a new contract via Amazon Wireless. I was out of contract and month to month on TMobile, prior.

I paid 129 from wirefly. I'll keep it for a while. If the galaxy sII is 4G LTE I'll consider it. It will likely get a ton of dev support.

I paid 180 for mine with my new every two and extra discounts.
I am thinking about getting a iphone4 (cough cough) from ebay just to check out and see what all the hipe is.

no way i would downgrade from a tbolt to the "new" iphone. thats like going from a 1000cc crotch rocket to a pocket bike.
im pretty content with my tbolt. it does everything i need. the 3d would be pretty sweet on it though

i probably paid more because i went through best buy, although my wife's lg vortex was free so all in all im happy. i think the sg2 will be my next phone.

After the MR2 update that just rolled out, I'll be happy with the Thunderbolt for a while. I'll hold out till they release a Nexus phone for Verizon, then I'll switch in a heartbeat.

Probably the Bionic. According to engadget, it will have full HDMI mirroring. Assuming this is true, it will be my next phone. (when it has been rooted, no much launch day buys for me.) If it isn't true, then I will wait till something has an HDMI out with a 960x540 or> display. As far as hardware goes, the TB is more than enough for what I use a phone for. I rarely ever use it for gaming. So, I really only want a better screen and HDMI. That is, if I stay with VZW. If I don't it will probably be the next gen evo.

Yeah. When I saw 129 from wirefly I jumped on it. The tb was actually my second choice. Wanted a charge.

My SO/GF has an iPhone 4, and she is always on it. She's a techie, but not quite as UNIX-y as I am.
Personally, and having been an iPhone 3 and iPod Touch owner (and still am), I cannot see any advantage to an iPhone 4 from an unlocked 1GHz Android device. Battery, perhaps, and pocket portability with the small screen. I would suspect to hear of your disappointment after a thunderbolt.

An announcement doesn't mean release date. There's been speculation it wouldn't come to other carriers until later in the year anyways.

That's why I left sprint lol. That and their BS 69.99 unlimited plan that required a $10 fee for data. I was fine with it until they took away yearly upgrades. Oh and the salesmen flat out lie. And when I went in to cancel I tried to pay my etf and was literally told "if you pay what you owe then our system will get messed up and will think you still owe" so they're stupid to boot. Tmo people are at least honest with their lack of real knowledge. I go into my local store occasionally to see the new phones and play with them and they always ask me questions about rooting and roms.

Nexus is here....

I just saw it at the Verizon store.. they can't sell it till tomorrow.
I held it in my hand.. very weird with the curve.. will be great with the ladies..
Will go back in the morning and put it to the test next to my SR..
From what I can tell the only thing good about the phone is ICS..
*EDIT*... Okay.. went out eariler and saw this "wonder phone"... I brought my sr to compare..
People.. this Nexus is nothing.. feels cheap, and feels smaller then the SR.. I can't tell the difference in the screen except mine looks better.... ICS is the only selling point on this phone.. Could I feel a 'difference" well. stock to stock yes. But with different launchers.. etc.. I can't tell my phone from the Nexus..
If you want to pay $300 for a sub par phone with ICS by all means go ahead... I'm keeping the SR.
I just got the email...released today for sale (15th)

I was really considering buying one of the gsm versions then I did some research and found out about the galaxy s2 hd lte which is pretty much the same phone but without ice cream sandwich, but I keep comparing and found the deal breaker, the galaxy nexus does not have micro sd slot which is a android first for me. Sounds like some apple maddness, plus I got a 64gb microsd so that just docent work for me. But hey to each his own
Verizon did a poor job at releasing that phone.
I thought the nexus was going to come out around November so I waited.
My Moto atrix screen was cracked and I couldn't wait any longer. I don't regret buying the Samsung skyrocket best phone I owned so far....
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Im tempted due to ICS but in the end it isn't worth switching to Verizon and paying money for a phone that really isn't any better just for ICS .
I had Verizon and the service was subpar. AT&T works amazingly for me with speeds. After owning an iPhone I don't want another phone without an SD slot.
ICS will be available soon enough on our SR.

Engadget (first link that came up on google) says:
...this tablet / phone in-betweener is said to pack a dual-core 1.5GHz MSM8660 -- similar to the HSPA+ 42 and LTE-friendly Qualcomm chipsets found in the Skyrocket and T-Mobile's SGS II. Bear in mind, folks, that this is all still hearsay

Atrix 2 $1 at Best Buy

I was thumbing through the weekly ads out of my local Sunday paper and i usually check best buy to see what movies are on sale for the week. I came across the phone part of the ad and it has the Atrix 2 for $1 on contract. Now for one it pisses me off because i paid $100.For two when places start to drop the price on phones that is a sign that the phone is on its way out. That has me a little worried. If a mod think this should be closed, go for it. I just wanted to point out the price drop. Comments are welcomed.

Not to elevate your pissed-offedness more, but I got my A2 in October for $50 bucks at Best Buy, two or three weeks after it released. A buck, huh? Maybe that's just a crazy weekend promo or is it a full running deal with new contract? Could be that it's a significant an impending approach to the release of the ATRIX 3...? Interesting.

Could be, I'm not so sure AT&T is doing so hot right now so its probably just an incentive to get new customers on a 2 year contract. Either way, the phone is pretty damn awesome (coming from iPhone 3GS -I'll never make that mistake again) and thank Jeebus for the devs!

Interesting...I've come to expect that in the land of Android, devices have a very short run and then the next not piece of hardware comes out just a few months later and what was, is no longer. It's kind of why i'm excited and sad at the same time about the prospect of me getting an SGS3. I have a feeling the device will be a has been come Christmas time
I don't think the phone is going anywhere anytime soon though man, the only way I was able to get mine for free was due to a price match back in November when Radio Shack had them for free w/2yr contract. Luckily mine wasn't 30 days old yet so I was able to get the price match via refund . Here we are 7 months later and it's still around....AT&T still selling them for $99. Now when AT&T drops it to free, then be worried And just a FYI, AT&T had it for the same price when I bought mine the end of October. Unless they run out of stock, I don't think it's going anywhere anytime soon.

So long, Thunderbolt

Got the phone a year ago for free from my mom cause VZW messed up her insurance and she got the Thunderbolt for no extra charge.
Charging port started to get really weak and you had to jiggle it around. Well, it completely got smashed in about 2 months ago. Dad has the same phone so he would charge my batteries whenever I was in town, but I usually just used a flip phone for calls and texts and my wife's old Captivate when wifi was around.
Dad offered to get me the Galaxy Nexus a few days ago before Verizon screws around with unlimited data.
I'm gonna miss you :crying:

I went to check on that. 16gb is $199. 32gb is $249. I'd have to get in today and use my wife's upgrade for myself. It's tempting, though I may just stay with the Bolt for now and buy something used later, avoiding the new contract.

I will agree with you. It's all in what Rom you use and how you set it up. If you let everything run like gps and auto sync, the battery will die quickly on any phone, its a given. Sync when you need too and use gps when you need it. Dim the screen when you can and don't overclock a ridiculous amount and you can easily get a day out of it. I haven't had any issue with my tbolt. My .02
You guys are lucky. I keep my screen dimmed, GPS and sync off, underclocked kernel, stick on 3g...
Generally when I leave the house to catch the bus, I'm at 100%. By time I get to work two hours later... 50%.
Granted the phone gets a lot of use during that time. But compared to my droid, droid 2 and even my old blackberry curve... The battery is atrocious.
Granted if I put it in airplane mode it can last a long, long time.
I love this phone... But the battery blows.

Your next phone

If you're sticking with Verizon and plan to get a new phone either at retail, or upgrading, which one are you planning on going with?
My upgrade is available in 10 days.
But I think I'm going to wait for the Droid DNA.
I dont like the feel of S3, lack of 4G on the Nexus4 is a dealbreaker (the whole reason I jumped on the TBolt!) if it even comes to VZW.
I dont see any other phones available, or upcoming that seem as good as the DNA has the potential to be.
I'm going to buy something off of someone from Craigslist. I'm definitely not upgrading and losing my unlimited and I'm sure not just going to walk into Verizon and buy a phone at full price.
I'm also waiting and hoping to see the HTC DNA. If it doesn't hit Verizon for whatever reason, I MAY go with the Galaxy SIII but I HATE Samsung's build. I don't like Sense as much as I used to, but I still favor Sense to anything else.

I don't think there is any doubt that the Droid DNA is coming to Verizon at this point.
They are set to do an official announcement on Nov. 13th.
It has already cleared FCC and there are leaked Press shots of it with the Verizon logo on it as well.
Not to mention, it's already in VZW's system, as a device with a non-removable battery.
HERE is my thread following the device.
I will be forking out full retail for this baby.
But I must THANK all those who have donated to me for the development of NuSenseROM, as that's what will be paying for it.
Thanks to all those who contributed, I can't wait to get a hold of this new HTC phone and look forward to seeing what I can develop for it.

That was my original plan when I bought the Nexus 7, but the fact is leaving your phone as a mobile hotspot kills the battery fast, and if you only activate it when you need it then it's a hassle to open settings, turn on mobile hotspot, then wait a minute for it to connect - all to check a facebook notification. Not to mention walking around with two devices isn't really ideal.
I'm waiting for the HTC Droid Incredible X hopefully in December. That thing is going to be a monster.

Definitely won't get it from Verizon, I'll get an older phone from eBay or Craigslist, maybe the Razar HD Maxx.

In case you may not know, but I'm sure you do. The Incredible X will most likely be called the HTC DNA. I'm glad I'll be getting the same phone as you and Santod.

I am quite upset that they are going with DNA. I would have loved to hear everyone who picked up this phone say: "Hey everyone, check out our Dix's!"
Someone from their marketing department must have caught on to make the change from Dix to DNA.

Wow i actually had no idea. Maybe that's why whenever I search droid incredible x on google there is no recent news. Supposedly It's gonna be the same as the HTC J Butterfly in Japan. Have you guys seen anything about that?

HTC did nothing wrong with the RUU if that's why you are trying to avoid them.
