so the new i phone is out but im not impressed, the samsung galaxy s series is better looking, bigger screen with in my opinion a better picture and they have android OS. i recommend it to anyone who doesnt want to make the switch to att and has i phone envy. the apple retina display has super high resolution but the samsung is just supirior technology, the anti glare coating makes the image very clear and the amoled panel keeps things thin as there is no back light and less power usage means the battery can be smaller. my biggest complaint about the iphone 4 is that the edges arent feathered anymore and despite its thin profile it look thick and not comfortable in your pocket. those are all just observations though.
i wound up with the htc aria though i thought the price could have been lower. i like the htc widgets and wanted a smaller phone.
htc android phones are a perfect choice for anyone on any carrier though, not too big the text is clear, phone is responsive, better bass response on the headphone out than my iphone 3g and im sure that's important to every one here, replaceable batteries, insurance is available, selectable data plans, optional data plan, option to turn off data on phone if you are near you usage limit, on att i can change my plan on my phone from the phone as i go. it plays flash, supports widgets, i can change the keyboard, really the list of reasons it is better than an iphone 3gs is long.
so far i have noticed that itunes store is quicker to load than droid marketplace, websites load quicker on my droid than my 3g, both keyboards are equally annoying for different reasons, pictures are good but i wish i had a flash. i do miss visual voicemail though, att is slow to incorperate it but it is available on other carriers on droids
it was nice to see that someone has knocked apple off the the top in the area of wow factor. so iphone 4 does video calls, any android with the proper app can do that to anyone on any carrier who also has an android or iphone though on many phones the camera points the wrong way. now i am starting to develop samsung envy. apple needs to try a little harder next time with the galaxy s series htc incredible and motorola droid x on the scene.
bottom line is if you go with an iphone over a droid you lose. i fail to understand why they sold so many so fast and people were still walking into the att store and reserving them without looking at any other phone or weighing the options with data plans and insurance on the other phones, it is even known widely that iphone 4 has a problem with the antenna and needs a case so there new thin phone is not really so thin in the end, yet the iphone was selling its self, the sales reps didnt even have to try, f-ing rediculous.
