Just a tribute to the Captivate...

I can't believe I'm not in a hurry to jump ship to the Galaxy S2. The Cappy has been such a good experience as a phone and it's still able to do whatever I need it to do. When the Fuze came out I couldn't help but be there the first day to pick one up. I was compelled to have the latest and greatest, and the abilities a new smartphone would allow. The same happened the release day of the Captivate.
Sure, it's had its issues (GPS and capped data speeds come to mind) but between the performance of hardware and the constant ROM updates from the dev community, I just don't feel that compulsion to move on from the Captivate. For me it's been a great phone and it's made me a big fan of Samsung's products. Oh I'll get a Galaxy S2 here in a month or two when the price comes down a bit. But I'm still happy with my Captivate and I'll keep it around as a backup.

ditto
i will likely wait until december unless the deal is too good to pass up.
Want to see what develops with the nexus prime.
Some info claims it will be a Verizon Exclusive but i am skeptical. I think that it is more likely we will see it launch exclusively on verizon with a 30-60 window before other carriers get it....so i am not giving up on the prime....the solid metal body construction alone will be worth the wait...just hope ATT gets it.

ill replace my cappy with Glalaxy Note .

That is what has my attention as well...Galaxy Note.

I don't feel the need to upgrade from my Captivate either. Its a weird feeling, I use to be such a phone whore, now I look at new phones and feel they can't do a whole lot for me (personally, I know the phones are actually huge upgrades) that my Captivate can't do.
I HATE how ALL of the new phones being announced are so huge! 4.3" isn't TOO bad, but I do prefer my 4" screen. They're just getting bigger too, I want the Nexus Prime so badly, but there's no way I'm getting it with a 4.65" screen. My upgrade isn't until May 2012 and I'm questioning if there will even be a phone out there I like by then.

I'm with you guys. Once the GS II finally came out, I am not as excited. The last ROM I put on is great and until that note comes out, paying 200 for the GS2 isn't so alluring.
Especially with LTE on horizon and the Note, which will be awesome.
It's like an old friend, even knowing something is better out there, I'm not ready to trade in my old worn in shoes

The article says 4.6". It may not be so bad since that probably includes the buttons at the bottom, I'll just have to see it in person, but I still think it will be a very large device.

I'm a captivate owner and I really love it. I will not change it in a while..

The only two things that I don't really like in Captivate are very bad sensitive buttons (well, I replaced screen after it was broken, and than buttons were like that) and very bad battery life, especially with MIUI
But speed and functionality are just grear. And still love the screen with maximum brightness. I think I will buy Galaxy Note or Nexus Prime, will see...

I'm with you guys, but not by choice. I have a contract to fulfil.

I'll also be waiting for the Note.

I just looked up the Galaxy Note. Wow...! That thing looks amazing. It might be just a bit too big but I'm really considering jumping on that.

I'm with you guys. There is no real reason to upgrade just yet. With a good custom ROM (Cog5), it does everything I ask of it, and does it quickly. The screen is just amazing, and only the SAMOLED Plus beats it, if you ask me. Since I'm not on contract, I can switch when I want, but I see nothing out there I just gotta have. The Prime may change that, but if it is CDMA, then I'm out. Big Red is too expensive for my blood.

Great idea for a thread. My Captivate was my first Android phone. When I got it, I immediately started hacking it. Right now it's semi retired. My Galaxy S 2 is now my main phone.

Na, for the fact that the galaxy nexus dosent have a keyboard. If you don't care much for the keyborad then go for it, there are a ton of roms so you'll never get bored with it. I actually bought the galaxy s2 cause I didn't think id miss the keyboard but 2 weeks later I sold it cause it didn't have a keyboard and now I'm back on my mt4gs

I have a Galaxy Nexus, and it's great! It's for Verizon tho' (Payment for flashings an Evo 3D to boost). I mainly use it as a Gaming system. It's amazing, the screen size makes up for a lot. I have Parinoid android on it, and SlideMe keyboard. Makes it perfect. Plus! You'll never have to worry about updates, or ROMs. Offical updates from Google are quick, and let's say there isn't a lack of ROMs.

I would go for the Nexus if you like flashing ROMs. The design is also notably superior.
However, the camera pales in comparison to ours, especially in lowlight.
Also, we have a keyboard.

It's not a bad camera. I just think ours is better.
It doesn't sound like you really need the Mytouch 4G Slide, so I would recommend selling and buying if you have your heart set on a Nexus.
I believe I read something about Google releasing new devices around November. Regardless, it might be better to wait for the next Nexus phone.

I have both phones in my house. I have a MT4GS picked up off eBay and I bought a Galaxy Nexus for my wife, just so she'd quit complaining about her iPhone 3GS's data issues on T-Mobile.
MT4GS
I want to start by saying that the physical keyboard wasn't a big selling point. I was shopping for a cheap phone with higher end hardware. The MT4GS fit the bill nicely, I have less than $150 in mine.​
I still running the stock ROM and I just unlocked my MT4GS yesterday, still in S-ON mode. I am planning to try a couple of ROM soon.
I love the camera app, available memory (especially compared to the Garminfone and MT3GS I've previously owned).
I'm ok with the stock clock widget with integrated weather.
I hate the dialer app, why HTC / T-Mobile decided to switch from offering Favorites to offering Group Texting is beyond me.
Galaxy Nexus
I love the cleanliness of the stock Android experience, but I'm still not thrilled with the dialer app.
I've already added another calendar app to mimic the iPhone's month view with agenda below.
I love that this phone is running 4.1 before most manufacturers have pushed 4.0 to their phones.
I miss the Sense like clocks, I'll probably install Sense Analog Glass Clock at some point...
I worry about the robustness of the design. It's just soo thin and light. Which may be ok in my wife's purse, but my phone is usually in my back pocket.

This is exactly the kind of info I wanted to know, thank you. To the op, sorry for hijacking your thread for a minute there.

New owner coming from Note: thoughts

There's been a huge debate in the note forums about this phone and I wanted to give my thoughts in short form. Honestly, the only thing I miss is the screen size. The s3 screen is better. The s3 is snappier, it has a better camera and the form factor to me is better.
ill adjust to the screen, typing has been the biggest problem. I was going to wait on the note 2 but after the conference I was let down how little it was an upgrade. Don't get me wrong, the note is an awesome phone in every way, just giving my 2 cent. I had sold mine and was gonna get a note 2 but being a phone whore I figured I'd get something new!

Ikr i have small hands so this phone is more than big enough. I dont think I'd like it if i didn't have Swype.
I can't imagine the Note 2's 5.5" screen. Basically a bigger s3.

I just like big screens. Was just used to it is all. I remember when I bought the hd2 and thought it was huge!

I came from an iPhone. I could type about 36WPM in portrait. With the s3 I can't go that fast, but I have less typos. I look at the iPhone which my wife now uses and think wow thats a small screen. I don't know how I made it watching Netflix on that puny thing.

You're not alone - when I looked at my Droid Incredible (i.e., same screen size as today's iPhones) the week after using my new Galaxy S III, it looked like a toy. But, I previously saw it as entirely fine from a display size perspective.
It still operates like a champ, though I can't see going back to a smaller display for my daily phone except as a temporary backup.
- ooofest

I bought a DroidX the day that phone was released & I remember all my co-workers who use iphones going holy sh!t that thing is huge!!
Now, I watch a ton of videos on my phone & I would buy the Note in a heart beat if there was a Verizon version available.
I use HDMI out to a bigger screen daily, but I don't always have that option.

is buying the sky rocket galaxy S3 worth it? or is there another phone, or keep mine?

I have the s2 and I love it but its starting to get slow and bogged down. I have 1 upgrade credit and im wondering is the S3 a good phone to get? Im through ATT.... I want it bad and the S2 rocked so much... I do lots of **** on my phone use it a ton for everything anjy thoughts on phones name some good ones? what about iphone5 compared to s3

Its an interesting question and honestly there isnt anything WRONG with the iPhone 5, but it comes down to, do i want to spend $180 , or save that $$$$ and get something like the Skyrocket or S3 which is just as good if not better.
Im not gonna sit here and bash the iPhone because it is a good product, but like most apple products are not cost effective.
Save that money and buy groceries or something with it man.

My friend has an S3. He went over to his parent's house recently after his dad bought an iPhone5. They did some comparisons and then my friend laughed as his dad rather sullenly acknowledged that the S3 was easily the superior phone.

my impressions when comparing said phones
galaxy s=iphone 4
galaxy s2=iphone 5
galaxy s2sr=iphone 6?
small screens suck for a smartphone, apple should of went larger on their screens and to mention that we can mod the frack out of our phones.
people still cant believe how nice it is to view the browser on my sr w/the larger screen compared to their iphone 5, compare the 5 to the s3....fugetaboutit

Your just about spot on. I don't "hate" the iPhone, I just find that it is more of a child's toy than the rest. However back to the OP.
Keep the SR for now, wait until next quarter when "supposedly" the S IV is supposed to be released. However having both the S2 SR, and the S 3, I love the S 3 immensely over the SR.

xxsicknessxx--do you have an SR now, or the regular S2? If you have the regular S2, moving to the SR isn't worth it. If you already have the SR and are thinking of the S3, I would just wait and upgrade to an S4 when it comes out. In the meantime, root and flash a ROM on your phone. It will give your phone some new life, IMO. :good:
As for the iPhone 5, to each their own, but it would feel like a letdown for me if I were to move to that.

My gf S3 on stock ICS(haven't updated to JB as yet) is a bit laggy, but I have played with my friends S3 with a custom rom and it's definitely worth it. I personally would wait for the next waves of phone releases though. They are definitely worth the wait.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

That's why I was suggesting to root and flash a ROM, especially if that ROM is JB. My wife also has a SR, and after putting a ROM in mine (CM10 stable), has no lag, while hers feels sluggish with stock ICS. A wipe/factory reset might help hers a little, but seeing the TW skin and all the carrier bloat turns me off.

Woah woah woah now. I stopped reading anything below the op as soon as gee asked about the iphone 5 lol...... Really op? Why do you have an xda account everyone here is droid nerds

So I started with an enV Touch..upgraded to droid x2; the 4.3 inch screen felt huge!! Especially compared to my friends' iPhones. Then I upgraded to the Galaxy S3, and once again, the screen felt huge, in a good way!
Does anyone else want to go bigger once again or am I the only one?! That is one MAJOR appeal the Note 2 has on me. Thought others might suffer from this want to always go a little bigger

i feel the same way, i started with the LG Dare(dont laugh), then i upgraded to the iphone4 and now i went with the S3. I think my next phone will be one with top of the line specs and a bigger screen. So it seems the Note if it continues to be up there will be my next. :laugh:

Agreed! I'm tempted to find SOME way to get the Note 2..whether that's selling my s3 or whatever. But with CES coming up, I gotta see what is coming

At first I thought this was large. Now I am so used to the 4.8" and could not ever see myself going back.
I think it's the perfect fit. Plenty of screen space, and just the right size to reach all 4 corners of the device with one hand.

Definitely excited about the S4, especially if it has the 5in edge-to-edge display you are talking about

Prior to getting the S3, I had looked at the Note2 and the only downfall that I saw was that it was only 2 inches smaller than my galaxy tab 2. Felt very large when talking on it. Then again, I could have just gotten a bluetooth for calls. I think the S3 is a perfect size for what I need it for.

I want bigger too. This used to seem huge but it's normal now.

It's one thing for the iPhone to be bigger finally, but with the screen not getting any WIDER, it still just feels tiny. One advantage of android's selection of phones; there's one size for everyone!!

iPhone 4S VZW traded after a month or so for a
Galaxy Nexus VZW
Galaxy S3 VZW
I finally got sick of Apple not adding features that were now common place in the Android community such as a larger screen, the Nexus was an outstanding phone but I wanted larger screen with better battery life and better signal reception so I jumped to the only bigger screen available at the time, the S3, had I stuck it out with ATT I would have had the OG Note, I wanted so badly for it to come to VZW but it didn't, now that the Note 2 is on VZW I will be moving to that by the end of January!

Will definitely be considering the S4 if its announced. I will probably draw the line on size at the S4.
