I am currently on Tmobile and can't really wait for their new demi-god version of the Infuse 4G, so I was thinking of buying a unlocked Infuse 4G and popping my Tmobile sim in it...But, I look on here and see that it has had some not so good reviews. Frankly it is this or the G2x, but I am hoping that they are getting Ice Cream Sandwich...
Btw I currently have a Samsung Vibrant...
going from a galaxy s phone to an infuse is not a worthwhile upgrade imo, i would wait for the hercules or sgs 2
I'd wait till sept. tmo is gettibg the best sii phone made so far

Want to talk about bad reviews peek into the g2x channel. I came from a g2x to the infuse and it was the best decision I ever made. The g2x is the biggest pos I ever owned, hands down. Granted the Hercules is the next level of android devices but as of now, in my opinion, the infuse walks all over the g2x.

can you explain/substantiate a little more?
why you think s2 is pos?
Edit:
my bad.
it is g2x not s2
He's referring to the LG G2x not the Galaxy S II.
And if you're on T-Mo, you should definitely wait for the Hercules.
The Infuse is a 2010 phone in nice clothes.
Wait for the Hercules. The two aren't comparable.

The Infuse with a custom ROM is a great device on AT&T.
However it's limited to EDGE on T-Mobile, so I would not purchase it for T-Mobile use. This goes for nearly any AT&T phone by the way - AT&T phones that support the AWS band are the exception and not the norm.

Just wondering if the infuse is dead or if Samsung and att are Judy being very very slow about releasing it.
Could it be delayed due to att's lack of true 4g and Samsung wont release it to them under att's false 4g. If i were Samsung I wouldn't let att ruin what had potential to be a great phone. But I would atleast let my customer base know a little about what is going on with it.
This as well as the sgs2 not being released until 3rd quarter or later in the states is starting to make me lose faith in both companies, along with att lying about their 4g and purposfully throttling down speeds on the inspire and atrix.
It might be getting time to try another carrier and just forget about Samsung.

if that were the case, t-mobile wouldnt have been aple to release the galaxy s 4g. and technically there is no true 4G avalible anywhere in america. By that standard LTE doesnt count as 4G 'till you hit the LTE-Advanced mark which wont be for a few years. unfortunatley the big companies are going to decide what '4g is' (even so much that the ITU was going to change the standard) once we hit LTE-Advanced well be crusing at speeds around 800mbps-1gbps
When those days come we won't need laotops any longer. Can't wait.
I was waiting for the infuse out the sgs2 but am impatient. Im like a kid at Christmas with this stuff. Now I have an inspire and have a nexus s with att 3g on its way. Should keep me happy for awhile I hope. If not my wife might kill me.

Meh, I was pretty excited for the screen size and specs, however it's only single core and the Galaxy S 2 should be coming out next month. If ATT sold it for under 200 it would be a great phone to buy and I think a lot of people who don't want an iPhone would pick it up.
What is your next phone after the captivate?
For me it will be a US variant of the Galaxy S2.
SGS II as soon as it is available.
an iPhone...lol j/k
But for me it will probably be the Attain (SGS II) sometime next year when I qualify for an upgrade.
Probably the Nexus 3. Unlocked.
Sent from my Captivate. Andromeda 3, Onix 2.0.5 @ 1.2Ghz
I'm thinking either the US version of the SGS2 or maybe the HTC phone that's coming out--sensation? with the 4.5 inch screen. As long as it has an unlocked bootloader. I really want a qHD screen.
I will also be getting the SGS2. Or the HTC holiday, which I believe is that 4.5 inch monster. Though I do wonder how the battery life will be and, based on HTCs more recent offerings, of it will be locked down.
I am currently eligible for an upgrade and it is so tough just waiting around to use it!

SGS II, best phone and unlocked bootloaders.. unlike some "brilliant" company.
I have a whole year before my next upgrade, so I'll be getting the next better phone to the SGSII

Yup, too early to tell. In july of next year quad core cpu's may be the hot item. And AT&T will have a real 4g network.

Just curious - why get a branded sgsII and not the international version? Updates a lot quicker, and no carrier bs, I think is worth the extra 200$ of buying off contract. I read the unbranded version will run fine on at&t's network (3g and everything), is this true?

HTC Thunderbolt 4G LTE or a newer HTC 4G phone. I'm done with Samsung, forever.

When its available through att it will probably be 200 dollars(with two year plan). Where can you get the international one for 400? Plus i think the warranty would be a lot easier through att. Ive got so many replacements so easily.

Captivate rocking cm7 nightly.
Infuse stock, awaiting devs
Next, most likely the Attain, with a slight chance of Hurcules (rumor has it it is quad band).
Galaxy S II or Evo 3D. Both are excellent pieces of hardware.
And no, I'm not vying for the Evo 3D because it has 3D, but because it looks like it's a totally kickass phone. Gimmick or not, dual cameras for 3D video is awesome.
I've had this phone since launch day and I am not even thinking about my next phone...
Just as the title says my wife wanted an iphone so we moved to att and my question is what is ATT version of the evo?
I looked on htc web site and the closest thing I can find is the ATT inspire.
Any suggestions?
Sent from my SPH-P100 using XDA App
I would say the HTC Inspire is the closest thing to it for AT&T
Sent from my HTC Thunderbolt using XDA Premium App
I would agree with jumpman1229, The HTC Inspire 4G is probably the closest thing. I just picked one up and pretty slick. They were really pushing the Samsung Infuse 4G, but I didn't want to pay the $199. I think the Samsung Infuse 4G is the newest one they threw out.
tell you what id do. I would get the htc sensation for tmo and unlock it to att. or wait for the world version of the evo 3d. but if you are trying to buy a subsidized phone then I would go with the inspire. Although it has no kickstand, no front facing camera, and it is buggy as hell. my friend has one and sometimes cant make a call without resetting it. he had att switch it out for him and it still has the problems.
I would ditch att for verizon. their network is better and the android choices are better. the thunderbolt is the evo.
Yeah I would have prefered verizon but my wife made the decision for fathers day ect. And honestly I would have kwpt the iphon but for some of the little things just mot included in the ATT base IOS.
I did go get the inspire so far seems good gonna keep it and just pay retail for an evo 3D when I can get it for ATT. or any dual core phone really.
Thanks for the heads up though.

Hey everyone,
I was just curious, if you had the chance to go with whatever carrier and get any android phone...which one would you go with?? What is the best choice?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I would go with what ever carrier had the latest and greatest nexus Google phone.
If money wasn't an issue i would go with the SGS2...
Unlocked SGS2

Exactly this^
If I was grandfathered in for unlimited Data at Verizon, and the SGSII had an LTE radio on Verizon, It would be the greatest possible scenario.
But because I am not on unlimited Verizon, I'll have to say SGSII on Sprint.
I'm currently on SGSII Unlocked with AT&T, and I'm not too impressed with them. The phone itself is fantastic though.
I would not go with AT&T simply because of the horror stories I have heard from some of their customers. That may seem somewhat ignorant, but having worked with both T-Mobile and Verizon, I don't believe I could go with any other carrier. T-Mobile's cutomer service is ridiculously good, and Verizon's coverage is amazing.
That being said, phones play a certain role in this decision making process as well. While I would not necessarily choose a different carrier simply because they had the phone I wanted, it would play a heavy role in my decision making process.
All of that considered, the setup I have now, an HTC Thunderbolt with Verizon, couldnt be better.
Galaxy SII, any network...
galaxy s2 hercules! a variant of the s2. its not even out yet, I dont have any preference for carrier though. we don't have AT&T Verizon and other big providers here
Thanks for the discussion guys! I want exactly sur what to do ..
Looks like I'm going with the SGS2 ha ha

I really hope the announcement next Monday is for SGSII on Verizon. I'd hate to be stuck with the bionic...
The best option now is the Samsung GALAXY S II from a hardware point of view or the HTC Sensation if you like the HTC Sense interface.
From the looks of it, the best Android phone coming out (that we know of) is the HTC Holiday? 1.2 GHz, qHD...it's supposedly coming out during the (wouldn't you guess) holiday season, AFTER phones on other carriers with 1.5 Ghz and 720p screens have been out for a couple months. Wth? From the looks of it, AT&T might not get the Nexus Prime (or whatever it's called, at least not right away). In fact, it's rumored to be going to Verizon, who is also getting the HTC Vigor, the Motorola Dinara, and a couple of the phones in that recently leaked Samsung lineup are going to Verizon.
Of course, where these phones go is all speculation...but damn, someone tell me my crappy carrier will be getting something good within the next 6 months!!
Perhaps I'm missing something...
The Samsung Galaxy S2 should be out next month. That will be the top Android device for ATT. And there is a slight chance they get the Nexus-Prime this Nov/Dec.
I would get the Galaxy S2. Will be a great device and last a long while if there is a steady XDA user base for ATT's version.

I dunno. It'll be a 1.2 ghz releasing about the same time as the other supposedly 1.5 phones, AND the screen resolution isn't even qHD, let alone at all on par with the 720p... You're right though, if the development is good (on XDA, etc.) then that does a lot for the phones lasting value.
But spec wise, it seems the SGS2 has been held off of US shores for FAR too long, and it risks being outdated almost immediately.
Are there really no other good ATT phones in our future? Can we expect some surprises to be unveiled in the coming weeks for phones on par with these beasts Verizon, etc. are getting?
Import an unlocked prime.
Well, AT&T is buying out T-Mobile and I'm sure with it will come a bunch of new phones for AT&T
There's rumors a Nexus Prime will be dropping for every carrier.
