Best phone on T-Mobile - General Topics

I love my optimistic t, its a great phone but I have only a few questions...what the best T-Mobile phone on market...the sensation? Also knowing i can get a completely unlocked phone, what would y'all think is the best phone according to performance, internal storage/ram and ie....

It is actually optimus...
I think HTC sensation 4g is the best phone in T-mobile network.
The problem with it is the battery, not going to last long.

Samsung galaxy S2

Nexus prime ...jk, but it will be lol but right now, I'd say its definitely between the Samsung galaxy s2 and the HTC sensation
Sent from my Sensation 4g using XDA App

Toss-up between Sensation and Galaxy S II imo

So if I find a s2 unlocked, in theory I can use tmobiles network on the phone

Actually and technically, the MyTouch 4G Slide might be the best T-Mobile phone. It has the best camera and audio and other stuff.

Galaxy S II

Any specs on the phone you mentioned...I believe the optimus t uses a 600/800 MHz processor, with my mind falling more to 600...the g1 had the same processor..I loved that phone, man I spent countless hours learning what i could about rom development...unfortunely technology is always involving so its nearly impossible to keep up with it

Here's the specs. They look sweet.

Are you guys forgetting about the HTC Amaze 4G? That is definitely the best phone on T-Mobile next to the Samsung Galaxy S II

Radar 4g is my favorite at the moment. The dell venue pro is also pretty outstanding. You won't get a better media or gaming device on t-mobile.

Just how more advanced can phones get? Soon our phones might wipe our ass
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App

HTC Amaze (why even consider Sensation with Amaze out?) or GS2.
Go for Radar if you are interested in WP7 and aren't interested in customization.

best phone on tmobile is SGS2 or Google Galaxy Nexus

Should I get a new SGS2 or refund?

Ok. Quick question. Should I get a replacement for my defective SGS2 or get a refund and switch from AT&T to T-Mobile and get the HTC Sensation. I am coming from the IPhone 3GS with a Grandfathered Unlimited Data Plan.
hmm they may force u to get another data plan.. and theres also the new SAMSUNG Hercules coming out...
get a refund
I'd be signing a new contract with T-Mobile so I know that I'd have to get a new Data Plan. How is T-Mobile? Also, how does the Sensation compare to the Samsung Galaxy S2?
Don't do anything till ICS comes out unless you really can't wait

Would wait , I'm probably going to sell the sensation and buy a cheap phone and wait till New nexus rolls out or iPhone 5 if it's compatible with tmobile

Sgs2 rocks dude better than sensation
Have gone through too many phones, buying , selling ,trading to newest phone. Been through almost all tmobile phones. Guess never satisfied with them, nexus one was probably kept the longest . IPhone is solid, used a 3gs for over a year and it was excellent. Just waiting for it to have tmobile bands to use on local carrier

Refund. Stay away from any recent NVIDIA hardware. I'm pretty sure the sgs2 uses it. Might be wrong tho. Besides that the sensation will decimate all once cm7 is released.

what about for the s2
I would trade for the T-Mobile S-II in a heart beat.
I would keep the phone for you. I just traded the mytouch 4g slide for sensation 4g. And I like it but I also like the mytouch 4g slide also. so it was a hard decision to make cause really there the same phone inside so your not losing much there. Just think about it do what's best for you. Tell you the truth the guy that I traded with also wants the sensation back but I don't like Indian traders. It's only a phone so do you and get back to us and tell us how it's going

Stick with sensation or amaze?

So I'm getting an amaze on Tuesday and I'm back and forth to keep it over my sensation here is my dilemma, obviously the amaze specs wise is a better phone there is no question faster data speeds which I seen from doing side by side test with my friends amaze, better camera, more storage, better front cam, NFC, bigger battery. Now most people by now are thinking its a no brainer, but there is a downside, there are very few devs on the amaze forum I'm back to sense 3.0, ics seems a bit farther from daily driver status no where near the sense tweaks are available. I'm really stumped because I made the mistake of letting my hd2 go before it got really good with all the Roms there are to flash now, android, wp7 etc, n I'm afraid to do the same with the sensation now since there is a lot of devs supporting this phone what do you guys think? Oh and also there is no s-off for the amaze the bootloader can be unlocked through HTC but no s-off.

No WIFI calling on Amaze yet, that is a shame too, t Mobile signal can be **** in my condo.
Amaze has that annoying kid, Revolution the kanger, he is a big reason I haven't checked out an Amaze.

Lol that annoying kid? The devs are good actually but just not as much as far as I know xboarder, nrgz28, crackeyes, some guy from the epic forum and revolution, WiFi calling is no deal breaker because the devs already got it working on the amaze Roms actually and I also don't need WiFi calling I got 4g all the way from home to work and most areas I am usually at

Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
I like it it only leaves speed to be desired but some of the features it provides are quite useful I perfer it over cm7 or aosp. I always tend to like the manufacturers UI improvements I mean I bought a Samsung for touchwiz and a sensation for sense, that may change with ICS but I've yet to get a good taste of what ICS is like fully functioning

Dedicated camera button and extra ram. That's it. Personally I'll stick with Sensation until cm7 or cm9 are available for gs2 or amaze.

No. Because 1. I used my upgrade already. And 2. I bought too much accessories already to let go of the phone.
I ordered mine today but I'm keeping my sensation. Will see how the two compare when I get my nexus

We'll. Get ics soon or later, and just for the firmware updates some wouldn't pay, plan cancellation fees, then go to an overcharging carrier, nfc chip? Ask anybody who owns a nexus s used it properly, and constantly, every dual core device now has same aspecs yet in a different way, different flavor, different. Everything

No cause it is just a little to big for me. Coming from the N1, then the Sensation, but the Galaxy Nexus screen seems to me just to big for my pocket!

The unlock version can support the T-mobile bands but you'll pay about $700

next phone

hey there, i'm looking for a new phone, i only want to spend in between €100/€210, are there any good smartphones in that price range, i was thinking about the HTC HD2, but i dont know if thats a good choice, and i have the galaxy s1.
thanks for your time

What do you want in the phone?
Camera, front facing? CPU? Screen size? Good development? Etc...
Mainly, I'm also wondering off contract or on contract... and new or used?
The HD2 is not a bump specs wise from your Galaxy S, but it has amazing development. It can run WM6.5, WP7, Android 4.0, MeeGo, and something else too I forgot.

i want something that has a bigger screen, and camera doenst bother me that much, i never take picrures
i really want a faster phone with more ram, or a dual core. the reason for the HD2 was the big screen and the huge development for it

OK well... I don't know much about availability of phones in countries outside the US... but there are definitely some worthy upgrades in that range (in USD its 122-250).
I can offer a big list of used phones in that price range, but I don't know if the sellers on eBay ship to the Netherlands. Hmm.

there are loads of phones here, but not second handed, so theyre all really expensive, and i could get one from ebay :3
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
Here are the phones in that price range, used on eBay. The problem is, I don't know about availability in the Netherlands.
Motorola Atrix 4G
Motorola Atrix 2
Samsung Captivate Glide
LG Thrill 4G
LG G2X (Optimus 2X)
LG Nitro HD
HTC Sensation
HTC Mytouch 4G Slide
And the single core phones that are upgrades from the Galaxy S
HTC Inspire 4G (Desire HD)
Samsung Infuse 4G
I also went onto the eBay app using the Netherlands country code, and I found some used GS2s slightly above €210, but they still had an hour or so on them so they were bound to go higher.

The HTC HD2 is great if you are interested in ROMs, dual booting, modding, etc. Otherwise, the Sensation is the best overall in that price range. The HTC HD2 will last at least a year due to the huge dev community but the Sensation is vastly better on specs.
Get the galaxy s3. It is an amazing phone. I loved my gs2. And this is like a hdtv compared to a b&w white one. I love all the features and the screen size. Check it out when u have time
