Ok, i have a upgrade available from ATT. If you had one available what would you get that is better than the inspire if anything on ATT? please post why and which smart phone...
I'd either get an Atrix or wait for new phones to come out soon.

I would get a healthy dose of wait, and defenitly not an atrix.

Currently, the HTC Inspire is hands down the best phone ATT has on there list. If your an Apple Fan then the Iphone 4 is probably what you want.
But in all honesty, I would wait for the HTC Holiday to launch. Talked to an HTC rep the other day that said the phone would be available on the ATT Market by the end of the year at the latest.
I would wait for the HTC Holiday/Inspire HD
I would also wait for the htc holiday. However if i had to upgrade it would be the nexus s
I DON'T LIKE SIGNATURES...
I would get an Atrix. No offense to anyone in this section, but it runs better than my Inspire did.

I don't think ATT has anything that is an upgrade to the Inspire. Yet. They will before the end of the year. I would definitely wait to see what comes.

I'm not getting anything else until there is a kick butt dual core processor option. In the mean time I'm content with the Inspire. Got it running sweet on all cylinders.
I would get nothing with a cheap plastic housing that is going to cost you twice as much as the Inspire to get. Get the Inspire or just wait. I would wait, unless you really need a phone now.

Hopefully they will be better than the Galaxy S was, though that might be setting the bar a bit too low.......
I would hang on and wait for the next gen phones due out later this year, maybe a dual core model.
Honestly, I would either wait for the iPhone 5 to hit the shelves (or wait for the masses of idiots waiting in line to buy one to move out), or wait for the Holiday to come out. Depends on which OS you prefer, but those would be top end for iOS and Android respectively

Sold my Inspire not too long ago (I fell prey to the allure of the dual core Motorola Atrix).
Worst... decision... EVER!!!
Although it had the dual core it actually felt slower and more clunky overall than the Inspire. I was running GingerBlur which helped as it basically removed MotoBlur but itstill felt like a real step backwards. HDMI was kind of a novelty although I never used it. The only thing in Moto's favour was battery life. For me, I prefer quality over quantity .

If u read up on this matter, specifically other inspire owners doing the same thing, you would have an overwhelming amount of first hand accounts coming to the same conclusion... the atrix is a fail of a phone and its not worth it. Specs doesn't make the phone. It's the overall experience that does. Some people have to find out the hard way I guess. My advice... switch back to the inspire.

Lmao Look at their source, pocketnow, who were the first show those specs along with the HTC Lead as well. Seriously though, I like what I see about the Holiday. Glad I still get my upgrade in Dec, since I went off-contract for this phone to get rid of the p.o.s. Crapsung a777. When Dec comes, hello Holiday, or whatever they will call it when they "officially" announce it.

From the Sensation preview vid I saw, dual core, Official Sense 3.0 and GB
Holiday.
Though that nexus could be interesting. I don't know how much I like the idea of the separate menu buttons being made software-based, though. 5mp camera, though they say its "advanced 5mp" is still 5mp. Resolution of images will still be that of a 5mp camera, no matter how "advanced" it is otherwise.
Samsung = FAIL. Never again.
I was going for the Sensation over the GSII because I hate the physical home button. But with all the U.S. carriers likely having their own slightly tweaked version, it very well could be without it . In this case, I'm going with the GSII (I like the extra ram it has vs. the Sensation). If AT&T's version looks like the current version that everyone has, I'm going with the Sensation (an unlocked one from Canada or something - for use with AT&T's bands).

Oh, me too. If the op question had been "which of these phones are you going to dump your inspire for and pay off contract," I'd have answered just as you did.
By the time my full upgrade comes around, there'll be some new bomb-ass HTC phone on ATT. But this time, I have a phone that will keep me going until that upgrade comes...
Unlike the circumstances that brought me to this inspire...
Blew my upgrade on a captivate 2 months before the inspire came out.
I got an upgrade available in December, the day after Christmas. I'm watching for the HTC Holiday.
EDIT: Paid off-contract price for this on Feb 27th. This phone will definitely hold me over til my upgrade, and then hello Holiday!

I dropped by my local att stores to see if they had heard anything about the inspire HD or the holiday. They told me they usually get email updates and such and haven't heard anything about them.
Though both stores told me they recently got an email about an upcoming HTC phone code named "super phone." I think its kind of a gay name; never the less, I couldn't find any leaked info on it.
Just though I would see if anyone else as heard about it or has found any information.
Maybe they are referring to the Sensation?

That is what I am thinking as well. Unless they are pushing out a quad core (I highly doubt it since tablets are supposedly going quad core sometime next year), it wouldn't make sense to push two dual core phones out right about the same time.
Though they had no idea what the holiday or inspire hd was, but then again "most" sales rep's don't have any idea what they are talking about..

I agree entirely. Sales reps are generally kept out of the loop on new phones until release is emminent. I don't think quad cores will be ready until November or December, at the earliest, as that is when we see Ice Cream Sandwich start to roll out. Seeing as how ICS will blend gingerbread and honeycomb into one unified Android OS.

This actually wouldn't surprise me, seeing as the Inspire was pretty much a rebranded dhd.
But it would be nice to have a completely new offering, instead of a rehash.
I previously had a Vibrant, and loved it. Unfortunately I had a pretty intense water accident with it (sat in a jacuzzi for 10 min before realizing it was in my pocket). I am eligible for an upgrade and am torn on phones. I have to get a phone by the 25th, so I can't wait for the Hercules, so I'm wondering, should I look at the Sensation, SGS4G or G2X?
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
I would recommend that you go to a T-Mobile store and check them all out.
All three of them are different, out of the three though I preferred the G2x since I like it stock.
I had the SGS4G and although it was a good phone I think that the G2x is a better phone all around. Tetra Dual core, HD recording, unlocked bootloader, stock, great screen, hdmi port, and build quality.
Hope that helps

I would recommend that you go to a T-Mobile store as well. If you are not good with dealing things, do not go for the g2x. Don't get me wrong,I love my phone. It's an amazing phone,but you have to do little work on it. If you like sense, go for the sensation, if you like games? I would suggest to go with the g2x.
But it all comes down to you, buddy. Go to a store and try them out to see if you like which better.
if you cant wait for the hercules than get the g2x because its almost the same price as the sgs4g but daul core, since sensation sucks its only using one core but good gpu. G2X ftw because of performance and price.

I'm thinking about getting a new phone soon... I wanted to pick up the HTC One X but reading about so many faulty devices over on the forums I'm kinda hesitant now. Still wondering whether or not I should make the plunge; on the other hand the 4S looks pretty interesting as well so that's also an option. So does the Xperia Arc S.
I need to get the phone before Julyish since I'm going overseas to study.
I don't see the newer phones (even One X, Galaxy S3) being much better than the G2x already. Sure they have ICS, but all the apps I run are fine on GB. Plus the extra cost to upgrade vs the ~$200 out-of-contract price of G2x on $30/mo plan doesn't justify it.
With all pricing aside, what's in ur opinion the best phone on the market right now?

Galaxy Note for T-Mobile, Galaxy S 3 for T-Mobile, Nexus Tablet.
That is what catches my eyes but in reality, my G2X will do just well for like 4 years more just as my Etched Nexus one does. My G1 is just too slow now.
Sensation rocks because the developer support is unparalleled. But the S3 is fantastic,and if you want a big screen the Note is excellent. And the One X, while it does have a few kinks in terms ram management, its arguably the best phone out there. Tried it in the store and it is unreal fast

Screw the carriers and their neutered phones. Sgs3 is getting a dual core across the board in the US.

Look at the post for the s3 in the general section, and then look at the comparison for the new krait CPU that will be in the sgs3, yes it is a bummer that its only a dual core but how much utilization will a quad be used? With the research I've done I'm more then happy with what the stateside sgs3 has to offer just have to decide other things my previous post stated.
And don't worry my mt3g isn't going anywhere like my g1 its safe and sound lol.

If I stick with android I won't buy another non Nexus phone. If the manufacture updates the phone any it won't be updated for long and in most cases 3 months later there will be a slightly refreshed version that comes along and goodbye support for the phone you got. I had a Samsung Vibrant well you know that support died when the Galaxy S 4G came out You all know the support on the G2X and I also have a mytouch 4G which is running 2.3.4 just like my G2X which I also don't see it getting updated either to ICS.
As long as I know the phone will have xda support and Dec community support from the manufacturer I'll get it. Like the sensation that thing is fully supported, the HTC Vivid that's on at&t is extremely supported, sh¡+ even the G1 is lol....

I jumped ship to the HTC One S. Besides the pentile screen it can hold its own against the One X, if not beat it at benchmarks and in my opinion just as good as anything Samsung is releasing. I love the overall build quality and feel of the One S and the 16gb storage is more than enough for me. I tried to love my G2x, I was even convinced that it was the best phone out there but the software/hardware issues finally got to me.
