So I was really set on getting an iphone for a long time now because I feel as though no phone has matched it's touch sensitivity, I can notice the menu's catching up to my touch on the nexus one and other android phones I have checked out. I gave it some thought and realized that since I am on t-mobile, I would want 3g and maybe giving up the touch sensitivity for faster internet is worth it. Problem is, Nexus One is no longer in production. What is next? There's a rumor that the Iphone 4 may come to t-mobile but...for now, what should I get? Preferably not HD2 since I would prefer Android OS.
Thanks guys
You want the Samsung Vibrant.
It is freaking hot.
Plus...
T-Mobile is almost half the price of AT&T
T-Mobile gets better service than AT&T (where I live)
T-Mobile has faster 3g than AT&T (once again, where I live)
And Android > iPhone any day.
Plus the iPhone 4 has some serious antenna issues that aren't worth bothering with.
Checking it out, are they still being made with AMOLED? And how bad is it in sunlight? I heard some phones are switching over to SLCD?
AMOLED wipes the floor with conventional LCD.. both in color depth and in power consumption... so its actually an upgrade from LCD.. also i find that the vibrant screen is every bit as sensitive as the iPhone. i think it may even be a touch more accurate. i have both an iphone and the vibrant.. so i can tell you from experience.

he didn't ask which carrier was better so please reserve from bashing and starting flame wars =\ thought i do share in your iphone/apple hatred =P
current devices on tmobile:
-Mytouchslide: general balanced phone =] this is the phone to get if you don't want a huge phone in your pocket but something you can rely on everyday
-Samsung Galaxy S (Vibrant): beautiful phone and currently the fastest phone on the market
yet released phones:
Tmobile:
-G1 successor (HTC Vision or G1 Blaze)
-Mytouch 3g HD
-Motorola MOTOROI
Unknown:
-LG Optimus Q and Z (they're sexy beasts)
-Dual Core Snapdragon handset
-Windows Phone 7
the Dual Core Snapdragon handset
Is there anymore information on the Dual Core Snapdragon handset?
i have heard of the G1 Blaze, basically a N1 w/ keyboard, which would be nice. but i waiting to see more spec's on it.
But what i really want to know about is the Dual Core Snapdragon handset.

I haven't yet used it in sunlight, just got it yesterday and I love it so far. I'll be going out today Was up all night with it and ended up sleeping til 5PM hehe
Also, it's a SUPER AMOLED. and it's GORGEOUS. Nicest screen I've ever seen on a device. It really is a killer phone if you're looking for a touch-only iPhone alternative.
Also, the Vibrant is rooted so custom ROMs and full customization is available

Wasn't starting any wars: T-Mobile merely does better where I live.
Tried AT&T for a month, didn't get as many bars.
Also, I did tests: T-Mobile's 3g is like rocket speed compared to AT&T here in Pittsburgh. Even T-Mobile's EDGE is way better than AT&T's.
Not to mention, half of my calls on AT&T got dropped. I was using a Motorola Backflip. Now the only dropped calls I get with T-Mobile are occasionally when talking to my GF who gets bad service on Cricket at her house. Lol.
thats the problem, you had the backflip.
Even the reps in the AT&T store that i frequent say that it was a poorly designed very hard to use handset, and that on average 50% of them came back.

ah yes, I just found out about the mytouch3gHD and the g1 blaze. I think I will be waiting for those two as I can start saving up money for now. Haven't heard much from the 3g HD and the g1 Blaze but I heard the 3gHD will be the one that will reach fastest internet speeds of all phones on the market? Also, are there enough information between the two to have a bias towards one than another at this time? Right now, I just like the mytouch3gHD only based on the fact that it doesn't have a dedicated qwerty (i like my touchscreen to be as touchscreen as possible lol).
What is the best between the them and what is the best android smartphone i can buy?
Thank you
Does roger use the same bands as ATT?
If so get galaxy S 2 international
best phone

Captivate is ugly and updates have to go threw carrier
Nexus S well i have one and its great but outdated and pretty much the same as the captivate minus external SD support and 720P video record
but it gets exclusive updates from google
I need a new phone. Should I get the Thunderbolt now or wait for the Verizon Samsung Galaxy S II to come out?
No question I would wait for the Galaxy S2 on Verizon, it will be night and day better than the outdated Thunderbolt. Dual cores, more RAM, way better screen, and I am sure will have very strong developer support

I agree. I am in the same boat and have been waiting for some time. The only thing that would stop me is if it does not have LTE. In that case I will have to go with the Droid Bionic.
not to mention that the battery on the thunderbolt drains quickly
I plan to put a mobile on contract which means 24 months for me. Which of those is best suited for future-proof in terms of software?
Well the Galaxy Nexus will receive updates longer than the Galaxy S2, meaning Galaxy Nexus will have next generation Android update, and Galaxy S2 won't. Galaxy Nexus will also most likely get more support from Google and such since it's a vanilla (for the most part) Google phone. Galaxy S2 has better hardware specs, but Galaxy Nexus has better software and support. I went with the Epic 4G Touch because it's the best of the Galaxy S2 phones and I'd rather have unlimited data than Verizon's current 4GB for the price of 2GB deal. So future proof wise, Galaxy Nexus is probably your best bet since Epic 4G Touch won't have as much support even with ROMs.
The software issues shouldnt be looked at as a negative,if youre on xda then you know youll have access to better software anyway(custom roms).id go with better phone.

So I have been flashing roms since the days of my tmo dash and now I have a sprint nexus s. I have had my upgrade for a while now and am holding out for quadcore snapdragon. Supposedly it will debut with the LG Eclipse in October (along with LTE finally in NYC)
My question is should I jump at the LG or wait for HTC or Samsung to release their beasts? I'd be highly upset if there is little to so support for my next choice as I have been lucky with my touch pro, evo, and nexus.
Btw, my current gripes with choices now are:
EVO LTE- no removable battery and SD slot limit to 32 gb and stuck with only 3g
S3- no shutter button, lense not as good as evo, not a fan of touchwiz, cheap overall feel, stuck with 3g
Thanks for reading and please opinions. If this is posted in the wrong section my apologies.
