im surprised im the only one that really posted about this
Well, gee let's see:
1) last year's hardware with a different antenna
2) stuck on a CDMA network (while 98% of the world use GSM) that doesn't allow simultaneous voice and data
3) its only mentionable software is the app store (grandma loves playing with those games)
I don't blame people here from not talking about it..

1) The phone is less than 7 months old
2) Totally agree here, but then again most Verizon phones are CDMA only
3) The app store, agree with me or not, has some awesome apps in it and is still ahead of Android as far as searching/sifting through the crap goes.
Anywho, I will continue using my HD2 with NAND Android
I think it is weird for someone to buy this phone on February 10th when 4 months later Apple is MORE than likely going to release the iPhone5. If Verizon customers have been weighting years for this device to come to their network, what is the harm in waiting 4 more months to get the newest one. I know it isn't a guarantee Verizon will get the iPhone5 in June but its hard to see why they wouldn't.

My guess would be that the iPhone "5" will really be just a "4S", slight speed boost, maybe more storage, nothing to write home about though. Then next year when the 5 comes out Verizon and AT&T will both get handsets at the same time, in June.
Plus, realize that average customers don't know/care about release schedules. If they did, 6 months after the iPhone is released 0 would sell, which obviously isn't the case. Not everyone chases the latest and greatest devices like we do
if a five comes out- it WILL be a 4s like uberamd said. It wont be worth a new device it will just be something a software update would be. honestly, i also believe that some of the verizon smart phones could best the iphone in a comparison so unless the iphone becomes somthin totally different they may lose business. Hopefully the 4g service will come to verizon sooner than later.

Yes, the phone was released 7mos ago. The available hardware (as in similar phones with similar or better specs), however, is over a year old.
I can just imagine AT&T and Verizon releasing the iPhone 4GS, AT&T's will be the exact same with HSPA+ and Verizon's will have LTE. Other than that.. no differences.

Who cares about specs? Go ask anyone outside these forums who isn't a gadget geek (and by that I mean go ask 99.99% of mobile users) how many MHz the processor in their phone is, or how much RAM it has. They will stare blankly at you. Why? They don't care. What they want is a good experience, and while I may be an Android user I am also willing to admit that the iPhone 4 delivers a silky smooth user experience. From the store to the high res responsive screen, its completely smooth.
I have likely gone from iPhone to Android much more than most people in these forums so I have experienced the pros and cons of each OS. In my experiences outside of geekdom, MHz, GHz, MB of RAM, and dual cores don't matter. UX reigns supreme.

The OP asked why noone on a TECH FORUM has post about it. That's because people on a TECH FORUM SUCH AS XDA already know about the specs front and back. Learn to read.
The iPhone was sick when they first came out. 3 years later it's still the same phone in a different housing. I don't think I will ever get an iPhone again. Sold my 3g for a G1 when they first came out and never looked back.
Buying one right now would be a waste if you always have to have the latest and greatest with the "4S" or whatever it's going to be called a few months away.

Well, it was about interpretation. And less than 7 months != 12, and last time I checked a year was 12 months. Just trying to teach you something you should have learned in math class (see how funny that is ).
Also, if you notice, a different user mentioned this I think it is weird for someone to buy this phone on February 10th when 4 months later Apple is MORE than likely going to release the iPhone5. If Verizon customers have been weighting years for this device to come to their network... which started the discussion about Verizon customers in general, not just ones on these forums. Your reply, and attitude, is entirely uncalled for.
So not only do you fail to read but you also get side-track from comment to comment? The available HARDWARE was announced back in January 2009 (with the introduction of the toshiba tg01). That was the starting point. Even phones with bigger screen, bigger RAM, and 1ghz CPU were already available in store at the end of 2009. So since this thread was about the Verizon iphone 4, set to be released in 2011, it'll still be using technology/hardware already available back in 2009, and for the most part, early 2010...making the hardware a year old.
So what does saying the phone is 7mos old have to do with anything I replied to the OP?
I'm starting to think that english is not your first or even second language.
I'm done. Dealing with people like you isn't even worth my time.
So, who really cares ? It's a glorified app launcher anyway. Yea, it's pretty but, it's a apple.
This model is yesterday's news, it's 7 months old (longer before it was orgnally announced) Verizon and Apple know this. Every one who is a iPhone fanboy has been *****ing about AT&T's poor network, so verizon was the answer. So every sucker will go get a iPhone 4 from Verizon that is outdated and last years model JUST TO GET a iPhone on Verizon.
So, when the iPhone 5 (or what ever the next model is called) comes out, I am sure Verizon has there hands in the jar on that one, it will come with LTE and the way it should of been. Everyone who had to have one will be on a 2 year contract so they cant' change unless they pay the $350 or full price for the phone, then the people will be locked in for more years.
I think this iPhone was a model that was just designed to get rushed out the door, sure it will work ALMOST like AT&T's device but, it's nothing new(accept on a CDMA network).
I don't have interest in one but, I have a few family members who are and I hate to see them pay full price for a device that is outdated. I would expect for a flagship device on Verizon that they would do it right.
I would of prefered them to release it done right and wile they were at it, release a few Windows phone 7 models, you know, the better phone anyway

Wow do you like to talk back or what cookie?
As for the iPhone. Sorry fellers. It's a sick phone. So what if the 'hardware' is old? It has a higher resolution than almost any other phone right? How is that "old"? Also the Retina is way better than this "SLCD bs". I love the Super Amoled though.
Not only this, it doesn't NEED a dual core! Or anything more than it has even. Why? Because it runs intensive 3d games! Because it is fluid and smooth! What do you expect them to do?
All it's missing is a 4g radio. And it's way too early for that anyways. Why? 10mbps isn't real 4g. 10mbps isn't worth mentioning. I get 7 on T-Mobile THREE g. I'll get a 4g phone when it's 20+. Also then iPhone 4g will be out. For both AT&T and Verizon maybe?! Maybe! Lmao.
Either way. CDMA iPhone = ... Bad ESN + Flash to Cricket. Cheapass phone cheapass plan no contract. That's what I'd do. If I wanted an iPhone. But I have an iPod Touch and I love my T-Mobile service and my Nexus S.
And what's your huge problem with the CDMA iPhone 4? Cause CDMA is "crap" or something? Lolwut? Do you have any idea how big of a company Verizon is? Why is a CDMA company so successful? Why exactly do you think Apple is selling a CDMA iPhone?
Blah whatever. Haters gonna hate. But these haters must be nervous and threatened by an iPhone that isn't on AT&T crap. Honestly, I'm glad I have the choice to have an iPhone with 3G that isn't on AT&T if I want now. Doesn't mean I like the iPhone or am going to get one. But I'm glad I have the option.
Choice is a good thing.
^ CDMA is small as hell when compared to the rest of the world.
Anyway I guarantee this iPhone will sale more than everything on the market.
Oh and every game is not silky smooth on the iPhone. They crash and lag just like on Android. Do your research. Not all of them but there are some.
ugg did i start a fanboy war? dam im sorry.
well anyway i just saw what moto is releasing soon and they will be giving everything a run for their money. they have a tablet, the bionic, cliq2 and atrix. i am def getting the droidbionic.
it. is. sick.
Its on Gingerbread and im sure it will get Ice Cream or whatever, will it get the one after that though? And what about even after that!
I just want a phone that can last me a long time (at least 2 years)
NS has everything I want and need, as long it has the latest updates im good, and I dont like to root and rom and stuff, I just want all stock stuff.
With the speed technology moves two years is probably about right for the life of a new phone. It will probably be dropped by Google long before it's discarded by the devs though.
My question would be whether the hardware will last the two years.

Today's phones are like computers. It'll last as long as it does what you want it to do. Once you feel that your phone no longer can do what you want it to do, then thats when it has become personally obsolete and time to replace. Generally I would replace my phone every year, because it seems a new phone would release with a new feature that I would want to make my everyday communication needs much more efficient.

i think the nexus s will be supported, after all, the nexus one came out with eclair and got both froyo and gingerbread. im just trying to decide which phone to get, an epic or a nexus S 4g.

Probably quite a while.
I would assume the Ice Cream update would be the biggest leap so far, especially if its going to bring Honeycomb features to phones. (ie hardware acceleration, holograpic UI etc.)
And the Nexus One/S would probably the only phones to get the update for a while.
You should be worried when they stop support for the Nexus One first.

thats a minimum of a year away, IF the FCC even allows it. I would doubt they would do that to t-mobile users..........
Not to mention it would be a material breach of contract and allow millions out of a contract. Wouldn't be a very smart move IMO.

Hmm I've noticed that the Dev section isn't as booming as I thought it would be considering this is a Nexus phone. I'd assume that that's because the phone was only released on T-Mobile (and some other places in UK) until very recently?
Will the dev section pick up once the AT&T, Sprint and the Canadian carriers pick it up, or did people just decide to skip over the Nexus S for some reason? I'll assume it's the former.

AFAIK, it's been available in uk since it's original December launch.
what will the next google phone be? running ICS with a quad core processor. ( i am saying like the Galaxy Nexus) .
They use the Nexus line to release the next version of Android....
So the next "Nexus" will probably be running something like Android 5.0, and no one has any idea what it will look like or have for specs, and Google probably doesn't even know yet.... Its February, and they release in late Q4.
As marton says, you shouldn't expect real info until we get closer to Fall of this year (roughly). Given google's acquisition of motorola, I'm looking out for a Droid Nexus, though obviously nothing's for certain yet.

My upgrade is around the same time. If the GS III launch is anything like the GS II, it'll hit the states months after the rest of the world. I may buy a Galaxy Note and flash the radio that works with T-Mobile to tide me over until the GS III or something else comes along. Then I will have two awesome phones.

good for you. I am used to it... I was with Virgin Mobile before I came to T-mo and if you think T-mo is bad. *shudder* At least T-mo releases updates... In the history of VM there has been 1 update. 1 and only 1. To a outdated phone to an outdated os... So I personally can live with having a phone have 0 updates or go to it's end of life... There is always dev support.

I am up for a new phone with my provider.
So I am wondering should I get the S3 now or should I wait for the next phone from Samsung.
I read abotu rumors that the S4 might be pulled up to go on sale with the iPhone 5.
Though based on track recrod I doubt to see a S3 successor prior to July 2013 (if not later).
Currently I have a Samsung Infuse (AT&T) and I am quite happy with it.
What are your thoughts?
the chance of samsung releasing the S4 anytime before june/july of 2013, is about .00000000000000001%. The S3 is by far the best phone on the market right now, and its worth getting. You also have to release that in the phone world, there's always something rumored to be 'better' right around the corner, so you might as well get it now, because otherwise you'll be waiting forever.

P.S.: Just relaized this was the Verizon version... Posted the same in AT&T as this is the right corner for me...
As a computer enthusiast, I'll tell you that you don't wait for tech unless it's maybe 1 month away at most. Get it now, it is mostly overkill for what 95% of people use it for anyways.
WTF? This phone just came out like 2 weeks ago. It will be a year before the SGSIV comes out.
If you're eligible for an upgrade now, and you like the SGSIII, then get it.
If you don't like the SGSIII, get something else. Don't just sit around and wait for a year for the next version of a phone you don't even like.
I'm really curious to hear from where this rumor came from. A dollar on that it starts with, "my friend told me..." or "my dad works at Nintendo and he said....".

GS3 is already one of the (if not THE) top selling smartphone of all time. Samsung would A) lose a lot in their marketing campaign on it along with all the sales that would have still been pulling from it being a new phone and B) piss off EVERY SINGLE PERSON who bought an S3 because now their phone is moot point (which as part A states, is a sh*t ton of people). Why is there even a poll on this? Should I buy an iphone 5 or an iphone 6? Lol.....
I'm also very curious as to where someone would try and post that the S4 is being released soon.......

Samsung would A) lose a lot in their marketing campaign on it along with all the sales that would have still been pulling from it being a new phone and B) piss off EVERY SINGLE PERSON who bought an S3 because now their phone is moot point (which as part A states, is a sh*t ton of people). Why is there even a poll on this? Should I buy an iphone 5 or an iphone 6? Lol.....
I'm also very curious as to where someone would try and post that the S4 is being released soon.......

I would like to know who on earth would say any thing like that.
Get the S3 or wait for the iphone "5" if that is your cup of tea.

He said the next Samsung phone rumored to be the S4. Im guessing he just added the S4 part himself assuming the next top Samsung phone will be that. The phone that Im guessing he heard about that will be released soon is the Note 2. Unless you want a 5.5in screen get the S3.
op, GET THE GS3!!! Its by far the best device that I have owned by leaps and bounds....main reason, it just plain works! Great signal, battery life, gps, speaker,camera, a plethora of ram, beautiful screen, and smooth as a babies arse!!
Wait for the iPhone 5. If it truly is better than the galaxy s3-which I highly doubt-then get it. If not, get the s3.

oh my....... that means you'll have to wait about a year... since it's only been .. what.? a month since it came out?? but of course.. by then... the new GS5 will come out.. then the S6. I say wait for the Note 2. That's realistic because it's likely to come out within couple months. Even though I have a S3, I think I'm gonna give that to my husband and nab the Note2! ^_____^

I would get the note 2 if verizon releases it...
Get the s3 now, best phone on the market
naw man wait for the S5 since you are going to wait for the S4 anyway
srly just get the S3 unless you want to wait another year (assuming there are no delays...) to get a new phone
You're going to be waiting a long time for an S4...
S4 appear take a very long time, how it functions, to be used only after know,I still very confident of Samsung mobile phones.
Eh, the S7 will be out before you know it, so I'd just wait it out.
I would wait to c what apple n Motorola drop in next month or so,then do a trial run with the top phones n c what fits u the best n go with that.

Well becuase he used the word iphone, I would say he should wait for apple as well. Now Motorola to me is trash, because the OTA 100% stock GB to ICS update killed flash player.( And they would not fix it)
I had more issue's with them/my Razr, but any way's. I think he should get a S3 unless he likes apple/want's smaller screen or what ever.
