I'm sorry, this is just a silly question.
But srsly, no. Unless maybe you're in the 14 return period.

I heard they are also offering a $50 gift card and free BT head sets along with the Nexus S for our Vibrants
Yeah you can get it for $529

Why you want to trade? The Nexus doesnt have an external sd card and its basically a Vibrant with a facelift

I don't think everyone uses external SD card and the nexus will come Gingerbread and get the fastest updates from the big G.
You want the nexus because it's new and just a hair better. It's the same reason everyone here wanted the g2 then mytouch 4g. It's "new" and "better". The vibrant has great hardware, nearly identical to the nexus, so you'd only be trading up for software and a slight facelift. Not worth it.
It's the new factor. You (and everyone else) will get over it in a month and be on to wanting whatever other new phone is out.

You're partially correct. But the primary reason that people are interested in the Nexus S is that its a "Nexus" branded; therefore, it will always have the latest version of Android in a timely fashion because it is maintained by Google.
I was considering buying one outright myself but the vibrant is so similar devs may be able to port everything to the vibrant within a couple days or weeks. Plus next year there will likely be dual core phones that come out that are going to be more attractive. I do admit having direct Google support would be great, but I'm going to wait and see what the devs do after it comes out. It's not like the phone is going to disappear from existence a month from now.

A facelift gone wrong IMO.
The lack of the SD card is bad with only 16g onboard. I came from a 32gb Iphone to the vibrant and quickly went out and bought a 16gb sd card to make up for the missing storage.
I doubt you will be able to.
First off, the Nexus S is only available at Best Buy or from Google.
I went to T-mobile last week and they told me that only Best Buy will have the phone in their stores.
I have a guy waiting to buy my Vibrant off me if I want to sell it... but the loss of SD card storage space, and the extra $230 I would have to pay has me balking.
I doubt I will get one.
I want to see what phone people here will be getting after the Vibrant.
I personally have had my vibrant for about 2 months, but after I heard about the HTC Sensation 4G (actually didn't hear about that phone till yesterday), I decided that I'll pay full price for that phone.
What about you guys?
I know that some people will be getting the LG G2x tomorrow, but I won't. I personally like HTC Sense, especially HTC Sense 3.0. And HTC has a better track records then Samsung when it comes to updates.
I think I might end up on Sprint. I can get a good deal on a plan and only pay 5 bucks more, which would end up being for texting.
Probably gonna switch in august. Whatever is the most dev supported phone they have then.

Honestly I think I'll be skipping this generation of phones. The g2x and sensation are nice but there is nothing about them that makes me feel like im lacking with my vibrant. Development will take some time to get going for them also while we have some nice stuff here in our dev section.
Also my contract is up this year and I dont wana renew until the dust settles from all this att/tmo business.
I'm definitely going to consider HTC. Sensation. Gonna have to play with one. I'll check out the Samsung, but it seems the HTC might have more going for it. I'm not due for an upgrade so I'd have to be very impressed.
Don't blame me, blame my keyboard's autocorrection algorithm.
Since im low on money im going for a mytouch 4g the devs over on there side is cooking up lots of roms there and it has and ffc , really wish i could get the g2x thou but like the guy above said we should wait to c the dev work and about the sensation i think it has locked bootloader so it will take long to get that cracked

I'm waiting for the SGS2, seems to be the only phone t-Mobile is getting with a screen larger than 4in, and 4 isn't quite cutting it for me
Sensation is 4.3 afaik.

Getting the g2x. I like vanilla android.

going to att merger time yurp im getting the real desire z or atrix but theyre already talking bout sense 3.0 on it
My next phone would be like 2 years from now. So maybe phones will be quad cores by that time.

I was considering the HTC but it's ram is < 1gb so it'll be SGSII for me. Well, that and the benchmarks on engadget show it beating the crap outta the Sensation. Touchwiz 4.0 actually looks pretty good as well (can't believe I just typed that). Maybe Samsung learned from the mess that the original Galaxy S line was. The only thing I'm currently worried about is if the telcos in the states gonna ask for variants again; I really hope not because I'm sure that's what cause a lot of trouble for the updates stateside.
My next phone has to have a 4.3 screen a ffc, flash and hdmi out. I wont settle for anything less. I'm actually still pretty happy with my vibrant. My wife has a Mytouch 4g, it may be a bit faster but my wifi range is better and my web pages load faster in addition my screen is way better.
Ahh. Lots of different phones that people want.
I personally don't want Samsung anymore (TV's, that's a different story, I have 4 of them in my house. ), and I like HTC all around.
If I don't stick with T-Mobile (still contemplating the sensation), I may have to surrender to the Sprint, since they have TRUE unlimited/uncapped data.
Some people in hong kong complained about dead pixels and phone was acting slow on the LG 2x. Might wanna stay away from that. Even without hearing such thing, I am still all over the. SGS2 for the spec. .
Going with the Sensation.

Im pretty happy with my vibrant. I was pisses about the updates until I rooted. I think im gonna stick with the 4 inch screen. Its the best fit for me. Tmo G2X looks promising. I have more than a year left in my contract so im gonna wait and see what's up with the phone scene ag that time.

Yes it is. SAMOLED+
We just got a new froyo build, so the Vibrant may be headed for a Gingerbread release. If it does, I have no reason to get the Sensation.
If I were switching now, I'd skip the HTC Sensation and SGS2. The G2X seems to be a much more capable phone than either IMO. More importantly, I wouldn't want any Sense or Touchwiz crap on my new phone.
Hopefully I have put this in the right thread.
My slight dilema is this....
I had a HTC Sensation, got bored and purchased a Nokia Lumia 800. Don't like the phone, don't like the OS and want to go back to Android. I only have a budget of between £200 - £250 to buy another phone and just wanted the opinion of the vast number of members on what phone to get within that price range.
Don't mind a used phone but don't want to go back to Sensation. The Galaxy SII is going over what I can afford so what's the next best thing? Needs to be loud!
Thanks in advance for any opinions.
The Optimus 2x (g2x on my side) is a diamond in the rough if you can find one.

you wanna ask yourself what you want from the phone too tbh. Personal preference for me is one with a hardware keyboard so i went for the desire Z. never looked back from it. works how i want it to and not had any issues unless i caused them myself hehe.
Managed to find myself a Galaxy S Plus for less than £200 in as new condition with an 8GB card, that'll do until my contract is up in July.
I have to admit, the Lumia 800 does have some nice features though, although my wife wasn't impressed when my phone read out a text through the car kit by my brother complaining about his internet connection, I however was rolling with laughter!!!
Thanks for the help anyway.
A customer gave me their old blackberry 8520 and I have been using it for about a week and a half and hardly miss android or my Amaze.
Im sure its just that its something new to play with and it will wear off, but sometimes its nice to have a tool and not a toy
Damn lol.... So u gonna stay with bb for good?

you want to sell your amaze? i might buy if its in good condition and the price is right
I took it off the charger monday night and I am at 50% so yeah its pretty awesome.
I think Ill keep my Amaze and wait to see what the warenty replacement becomes for this older BB.
It may not have all the games and what not but as far as talk, text and emails its pretty nice, just wish it wasnt a pinkish red color lol
I can honestly say the only thing I miss about BB is battery life. I should get out of work with 80-85% battery, with my amaze I get out of work and it'll be around 25% equal usage =[

Im sure if I actually got rid of my Amaze I would miss it, but just having it to play with on wifi may be enough for now LOL
had a bb 8300 when they first dropped, loved that phone. now i regularly cheat on my amaze with my mytouch running the goodness known as MIUI
I sometimes go back to my 9700. Miss battery life and I don't care what anyone tells me, the physical keyboard is just better and I am pretty fast and accurate on my Amaze or mytouch4G.
I wish and hope BB does well. May pick up a BB10 device .....maybe, lol!

BB curve 8900 was one of my favorite phones ever... If it had the bold 9000s radio capability it would have been the perfect phone. Haven't messed with bb since the original bold... Disliked it that much. The curve would be fun to go back and play with it. I never hacked one (moto cliq xt was first hack as test before rooting mt4g)
Btw... HATED THE 8520.. cheaply built feel, slow data, and I HATED the buttons compared to 8900.

I was reading that a lot of their OS5 devices that got the OS6 update couldnt handle it....... to bad
Never owned a BB. Had/Have the following:
HTC Wing,G1, MOTO Cliq, MOTO Cliq XT, Samsung Intercept, Galaxy S2 and now the Amaze. Besides the Wing all my phones have been Android since the G1 but before the Wing its was old flip phones with basic functionality. The good ol' days.
Good luck to the OP with cheating....cheaters never prosper...lol

I will probably wait and sell my Amaze to buy a One X/S or BB 10
Hey guys, it's just been on my mind lately to sell this thing while the value is decent and get something that is more development friendly. If you guys got rid of your note 3, what would you get? On the used market. I love the battery, camera and all that is sweet, I find myself not using the pen as much as I could. But really I get really auntie anne's like changing ron's and right now there are only a few. I'm not blaming our developers or anything like that, I know that it's verizon and samsung balls, but the truth is I just thank something with more development would be amazing.
