Ok .. so right now I have a Motorola Atrix 2 on AT&T, and quite frankly, I am NOT impressed with this phone at all .. the fact that Motorola did not learn from its mistakes from the Motorola Atrix 4G in regards to the memory issues is just pure stupidity.
I'm torn between the 2 new phones that were just released to AT&T .. the HTC Vivid and the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket. Now, I have hammered theweb reading reviews about the 2 phones .. I have gone into the AT&T Store and played with both .. but for unknown reasons, I cannot make up my mind as to which one to get.
I obtained the Atrix 2 from BestBuy in the beginning of November, so I'm currently in the 30 days return policy .. so:
I'm posting this poll to see what other readers suggest as to what would be the best to get next .. please vote, let me know .. and if any questions or comments about the phones .. please post .. the more feedback, the better.
Thank you.
skyrocket, no question about it.
I would have to go with the Skyrocket i've used a raider and well... it feels like ever other HTC phone on the market... they really don't differentiate their products well. The Skyrocket, well it's a Galaxy S II so it has those in common but even though it uses a Qualcomm it's still quite a decent.
I've tried the Raider, The Razar and the SIILTE against each other once or twice already at a store and well the SIILTE beats both of them.
In all I would recommend the SIILTE, Samsung makes good products and are quite speedy in updating their products, HTC well you will get "Well your device can't support sense 4.0 "But it's on your budget device" "so..."
PERFECT .. please keep the responses coming
Well would you be willing to wait for option 3.
Get a Galaxy Nexus you'll be able to get one next week when they are released you can import one since they already come unlocked. Or they will be released on AT&T pretty soon

Not favoring Android at all right now, but out of the two definitely Skyrocket.
wow easy!
Honestly there is no question or even a contest between the both.
SKYROCKET ALL THE WAY BUD!
CHEERS
As they are saying skyrocket all the way..
I'd have to go with Samsung, gorgeous phone, and definitely a beast.
Skyrocket, Samsung makes the best phones these times

@Illicit Hero: Why aren't you favoring Android at this time ?
Definitely Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket, the specification itself is better than HTC Vivid.
Goto GSMarena and do a comparison of these 2 phone.
Out of all previous poster prolly only couple actually own the Skyrocket. I was about to buy it but I've changed my mind inside ATT's store after playing almost an hour with both. Any sgs2 user will say "Sammy's the best" and indeed it is, but the Skyrocket has a different CPU and I actually could see the difference. Didn't like the wvga on its 4.5" screen, for some reason the screen on sgs2 looks so much better. If you don't care for 4.5" go with sgs2, otherwise I would go back to the store and play a little more.

galaxy is my choice..its very reliable phone.......
AT&T Galaxy S II i777.
Why? Dev support on that from stemming from i9100 which the Skyrocket is not 'compatible' with.
between the 2 it's an easy choice LOL
just look at the development for each of those phones to help you decide
S II Skyrocket, Skyrocket, Skyrocket, Skyrocket, Skyrocket....
Skyrocket is the way to go mate
Samsung Galaxy S2 is the best phone on the market.

Hello all, I'm starting this to get opinions of what people think is the best android phone and the reasons they think it's the best. I'm looking to get a new phone and would like other peoples input on what phone is best, since there are a lot of options available. I know everything is an opinion when it comes to a phone. Just say what you think the biggest pros are and the biggest cons are. Admin, If I started this thread in the wrong place apologize!
I've had 3 android phones, all with t mobile. The G1, nexus one and the samsung galaxy s(vibrant). I still have all of them!
Now in my opinion the nexus one has been the best for installing modified ROM'S, With the least amount of issues and ease of unlocking with all hardware working. The downside is the screen size and the flipping power button keeps breaking!
Now my second option is the samsung galaxy s. I like the dimensions of the phone and the screen size is awesome. But with modified kernels and a crappy GPS antenna you still have GPS issues.
So come one come all, leave your input let's see what phone you think is the best on the market today!

I was also thinking on the same lines... tho I think people should be careful as to what their suggesting... I don't think this thread is based on "what phone do you own, hence think is the best "... because I'm sure as **** the Wildfire S is by far not even close to the best android... maybe the best cheap android phone... but definately not the best...
If you think a phone is the best... then why do you think so... you need to have a valid reason...
As far as I'm concerned I want to change phones as well... at the moment the S2 seems to be at the top of the hill... I was sure I would get the galaxy nexus but after seeing the utterly disappointing specs... a crappy camera, no expandable memory, and a TI processor rather than a exenos is just a major letdown...
Tho in the upcoming phones seems the Droid Razr is supposed to be a beast and the S2 HD seems to be awesome... but iit looks like will need to wait a while for them... not to.mention the s2 HD will only be released in Korea...??? :s
Its actually quite strange phones are getting bigger and bigger... they just wont seem to fit in pockets soon... I thought a 4 inch screen is perfect... tho 4.2 is really pushing it... but 4.6... I'm not really into wearing clothes twice my size to be able to fit my damn phone in my pocket
What does anyone suggest based on facts... wait for the nexus... or the S2 HD... or just go for the S2...

I've favored HTC phones. I've personally owned the Droid Inc, Inc2, and the moto Droid. I've had my hands on quite a few different ones. I think the Inc Is my favorite . Samsung has good phones, but I like the HTC's better.
XDA App. DInc 2 PoWeReD
Best android phone ever? As an early adopter I'd say the g1, that thing was supported for a looooong time given the average lifespan of android phones, the form factor, while thick, is still one of the coolest to date with android, and I believe you could get it all the way to gingerbread despite being a severely dated device. Next to the HD2 it is my favorite tinkering phone. The best right now, likely the gs2, I don't have much love for the current devices but the hardware on the razr is looking pretty sexy. I have a thing for thin phones. That's why my next device will be a Nokia 800 but that's a story for another thread.
Tl;dr? G1, GS2, razr droid.
For someone like you just get a Galaxy S ii and call it a day.

Please thank me if I helped.
well it depends upon what specs you want to have(and brag about).
IMO, there's no such thing as 'best Android phone' because having the 'best' phone is always subjective.
If you want the highest specs on a phone, you can look at the flagship phones.
If you want to be unique, choose a less well-known brand.
If you want to customise, there's plenty.
If you want to have a good-looking UI, SE arc or ray would do
mine.
lol
Which phone should I get that will be one of the best phones out there for awhile, thats for t-mobile, and has potential with a good rom, to be even more of a beast? Bascially whats a good phone that will be a beast non rooted,rooted on a customer rom? Picking up a new phone for t-mobile next week, It's a hard choice.... and I'm in need with some help from the community.

The Galaxy Nexus is worth the wait, puts other phones to shame, it will have a ton of roms I would think since it is a google experience phone, meaning it will be pretty popular.

The t-mobile sgs2 is still in early development for roms and such, But it seems it has more potential then the sensation, which one would you personally suggest to me? Even though the sgs2 has screen problems while playing hd videos.
The Galaxy Nexus will be available for all major carriers, just not for awhile. I would definitely go with the SGSII. It may seem to be a little lacking in the dev department, but it has had root for less than a week.

Exactly. I'm hoping the t-mobile sgs2 gets some good roms, and such. But I'm worry about getting a bad phone with screen problems. I'm actually upgrading my phone, since Ive been a customer for awhile now. And i'm not sure how all that works.
Question
Hey, can you put a sim card from a no contract " pay as you go " phone in?
sgsII for sure
i will surely get sgs2
+1 for SGSII...u won't regret it
ofcourse HD2 !!
GN is not coming to Tmobile officially anyway.....but current phones I would say the gs2 or amaze if you like htc more
Hey People,
I now own an htc diamond 2 I had it for 2 years. It has been broken about 7 times! All within warranty but still it’s too much.
End of this month I can renew my contract with my mobile provider, and I can order a new phone.
But I have no idea what phone to choose.
Can someone give me some pointers in what phone I can choose from?
It doesn’t have to be brand new.
Must have:
Exchange support.
Camera at least 5mp.
Gps.
Must be quite fast while browsing.
Android or iPhone??.
I know there are many comparison sites but I rather here it from daily users.
So please tell me why your phone or the phone u mentioned is the right choice.
Samsung Galaxy S2 still seems to be the best, imho. Fast, thin, light, great screen. The only thing I wasn't sure about when I got it was the relatively low resolution, but it actually hasn't bothered me even though I came from an iPhone 4 with a retina display.
The Galaxy Nexus might also be something to look at, although I'm not terribly impressed with the specs.
I'm waiting for the new Google Nexus, what do you think about it?
I got a Galaxy S2 and I love it. The phone is nice and there is a lot of help on it. the community on that phone is pretty active.
Go for the sgs2 just got one the other day my self and im very happy the speed and friendly flashing is great.
+1 for the galaxy S2
Galaxy S2, no contest.
i say wait a couple weeks and get a galaxy nexus. the specs may not be the best, but the hardware acceleration and software make it better than just about anything else you could get.
I'd say wait for the Galaxy Nexus, though it's going to be super costly I think.
A mid-range awesome phone would probably be HTC Desire S. I own it, I love it.
So, if you can wait and pay enough for the Galaxy Nexus it's going to be worth the wait. Else go for the Desire S.
Galaxy S2 again is awesome, but awesomeness is not cheap.

Compare the amount of iphone developement threads with the amount of android developement threads on xda-developers...
sounds like samsung nexus is gonna be more like iphone in that no external sd card and no removable battery. Kudos for icecream sandwhich but do you wanna be the ghinea pig for software that is bound to have some probs in the beginning? It seems like sg2 is the ultimate phone so far: it has removable card, option to replace battery better hardware, camera and will surely get android 4.0 when everything has been ironed out. I only wish verizon picked up the sg2

Have been playing with the HTC Rezound and it is one powerful beast. I have ave to say it is best phone out there. If you have been waiting for the ultimate phone with a Verizon plan wait no longer for that nexus myth when there is a phone like this. Just my two cents ;-)
The Thunderbolt!!!! You said it didn't have to be new. Probably the mist customizable phone out there.

still happy with mine
one thing is for sure
ATT customers are going to be so freaking confused with all the different models of Galaxy S2 available in store and online
I wish Samsung would spend more time taking care of it's current customers by pushing ICS. I know it's about making money but seriously, it's current customer base needs to be happy too. Three Galaxy S models on AT&T. That's just retarded and seems like overkill.
ATT gets so much love from smartphone manufacturers and they are the absolute WORST carrier EVER! EVER! When I was switching carriers I had them for less than a week and it was the worst experience I've had owning a phone since I was on Metro PCS many, many moons ago.
I had an average of 3 dropped calls per day, and they completely f*cked up my very first bill. Overcharging me for crap I did not order. Three phone calls and three visits to the ATT store and they still could not get it right. The third trip was to return everything and tell them where they can stick it, and they are STILL trying to charge me for a month's use when I didn't even have the phone 5 days.
I don't understand why they get so many good phones. It's irritating!
Damn, if I had AT&T and was one of the people to get the first SGS2 I would be BEYOND mad. You buy the latest and greatest for it to be at least relevant for 5-6 months before something else comes out, main reason why I sold my sensation once the Amaze was announced.
i wonder how many people Samsung and Motorola just pissed off with these devices....i mean seriously....Droid Razr Maxx??? Razr just frickin released...although another Skyrocket device should mean another phone where we can use their development, correct?
and yea, the skyrocket is a nice device (and the new one) but id honestly love a device with the Exynos, so if it were me, id probably get the first version

Unfortunately this is just the way it is and will probably get worse. Buy a phone and a month later something "newer and better" gets released. Sure you can wait for the galaxy s3 to come out but a week later the galaxy nexus ultra gets released. A month after that the galaxy s3 supreme. No wonder android is so fragmented.

Android is out of control. New phones monthly and lack of support for older phones. Google seems to not care. What's even worst is all these phones all run gingerbread. You buy the newest and greatest and you get last years software.

Personally, the Snapdragon has left a sour taste. Maybe its TouchWiz's fault. Thankfully the SkyRocket, the HD and the Note are all Snapdragon - pushing more pixels with the same CPU = good luck with that. Ergo, not that disappointed.

Hey guys, I'm planning on getting a new phone contract and I'm really debating on 2 phones.. the Galaxy Nexus and the Galaxy S3.
I'm right now using a Nexus S which I'm really happy with but Rogers is offering a really nice plan extremely better than my actual one and cheaper.
I'm just looking for some opinions from you guys to help me chose.
Thanks.
I never understood this kind of a question. It is just too subjective with so many factors. If having the latest and greatest software is important go with a Nexus. If not....you really need to compare and decide what is right for you. They are both great phones. I suggest handling them both and get a good feel for each.

S3 is supposedly getting updated to JB late in the fourth quarter 2012.
If you can wait, well then I say go for the S3, if not then go with the Nexus. Personally, my opinion is to grab the S3. You are on XDA after all! Grab yourself a custom Jelly Bean ROM! (The devs are everywhere on the S3 thread, expect one to come out soon if it hasn't come already.)
Definitely the s3 if you are a rooter or not because even tho the s3 doesn't have jelly bean officially its definitely worth the wait. The s3 has a faster processor, better screen, more ram, bigger battery, and overall newer hardware! Its worth the wait for jelly bean!

SGSIII if you like modding, installing new ROM's etc,
Nexus if not as you will get the latest firmware more or less first.
hi maxx1601! i've a galaxy nexus and personally i think is the best android phone for some reason: first it's the official google phone, so the android developing is based on it and with jelly bean google resolved the few ICS's bugs; second it has a dual core cpu (is enough for all android operation and using, we don't need more), that make battery good against the gsIII that has in my opinion too many power enhancements like quad core cpu ecc. that cause battery drain under android, has got a user interface that is second to google pure UI, that personally love; gsIII has olso a too big display ( nexus display is enough bigger, good for browsing, gaming, texting, using apps like maps and google earth that need a large display). my advice is to buy the galaxy nexus, and don't forgot, the price is olso a good thing to keep in mind it costs only 399 $ now ( mabe less i don't know) and is full supported for updates by google and developers that have a solid base made by google. i hope it helps, I wish you have a good choice! :fingers-crossed:

And samsung was supposed to have ICS for most of their phones in the first quarter and didnt release them until the 3rd quarter. Thats probably the nicest thing about owning the nexus you know that you will get the updates and you will get them on time. The SIII will get support for updates until the next flagship samsung phone comes out and then they will put it on the back burner just like they did with the SII, skyrocket etc... That was the most frustrating part when i had my skyrocket, i had a phone that was less than a year old, had decent hardware and i knew it would probably never get updated past ICS, because once the SIII came out samsung and AT&T had moved on.

Hey ive got an Galaxy Nexus now for over two month and I must say its just awesome, especially in combination with these forums (There are tons of good roms for the GNEX=
The best part about the phone is the stock android experience but thats personal preference.
I also tested the S3 and its a great phone but i dont like the Samsung custom Software that much.
I've had the Galaxy s3 for about a month now and love it.the camera options are awesome, decent selection of ROMs available and some cool compatibility programs if you have dlna devices at home.
