I Need a New Phone and I am Conflicted ...

Bullitt · 04-01-2011, 12:20 PM

Word is there will not be a new Apple handset this year. Instead they will be focusing on software updates. So I wouldn't count on a new one coming out this summer.

I got an HTC EVO running Android 2.2 on Sprint recently and I love it. Snappy, responsive, clean and intuitive interface. Does everything I need it to. Also got an extended battery with it so I can use it heavily (GPS turn by turn navigation for work, constantly on the internet, going through spotty service areas like our damn truck bay where it has to keep searching for a signal, etc.) and it lasts a good 10 hours of heavy usage. Nice big and bright screen.

HTC + Android = win. They make solid, quality handsets, and their Sense UI overlayed onto Android is great. And yes there is a Kindle application for Android.

Might as well go 4g since your data plan for a 3g phone will incur the costs anyway.

I love my lg optimus s. It is smaller than the droid, but does all the cool shit. I only wish it had a flash for the camera.

Oh, and it was free!

That's for the white colored iphone4. Not a new physical design.
