For the sheer comic value, I'll be using my HP Veer all this week until my note comes. How about the rest of you guys?
IPhone 4S.....IPhone 4 Prior to that. IPhone 3GS Prior to that. IPhone 3G Prior to that. IPhone prior to that.
IPhone 4S is going on Ebay/CraigsList once I have the Note in hand and verify what we all know already.......There is no comparison
My personal line is my Atrix, which I'm upgrading to the Note. My S2 is still my company phone.
I actually ended up using my HP Pre 3 for like half of last month. I'm currently using my Streak....but I may go back to that HP (since I'm not gonna get the at&t Note right away...)
I currently also have the Aria, which I haven't used in a while.
As of late, it's been a tough decision at times if I wanted the phablet screen estate...or to use WebOS. Going from big to mini basically.
I have been using a Palm Treo 680 for the hell of it. I loved the phone when it came out still love it for reasons I can not explain can't wait for my Note to get here. My daily phone is usually an iPhone 4s.
Using the tiny Skyrocket until the 17th

Right now I'm suffering with a deep red blackberry 8310. I can barely check the weather on this phone
I've leaving the Moto Atrix w/ CM9, before that iPhone 4, 3GS, 3G, 2G (or whatever). Now if I could just get my wife to switch from her 4S I'll be great. She calls me a traitor.....lmao.
Currently using Atrix, but it's awfully buggy & unstable, (even after latest SOAK update) still I like it for the lapdock value.
I develop products with Apple devices, so I have all iPhones but after I learned all about the first one, got bored and set them aside. I will say Siri is seriously funny to play with.
Will keep the Atrix and lapdock till I get the Note sorted out for replacing the Atrix, the USB host function of the Lapdock is essential for data shuffling (in mainland China internet is spotty, so dropbox is not too reliable); hoping that I'll be able to use Note with maybe a tiny powered hub to connect hdd, thumb drives etc.
Ordered Note at ATT waiting......
I have two different ROMd skyrockets, a captivate, and a focus that I switch between
Pam Pre 2
Was using a day 1 release palm pre until a couple of months ago. After messing with CM9 on my Touchpad, the Note is my next phone.
Currently have an iPhone 4S.
Gonna wait to get the Note until AmazonWireless drops the price to free on contract. It shouldn't take that long plus it will give me time to go in the stores to get a feel for it in person and to find out from the early adopters how the battery life is w/ LTE if your not in an LTE area.
HTC Vivid here...
I have the Infuse so it should be an easy adjustment.
I have 2 phones a Inspire4g which I use for my work (this is what I swapping out for the Note!) and my SGS2 (My personal phone) which at this time I wouldnt give up for much at this time... only another note would I give this up for at this point but I would love to see someone carry around 2 notes! lol

I know one of these shows up every once and a while, but now that the selection of phones has grown quite a bit over the past two days, and the holiday season is coming soon, I was curious; What phone do you plan on upgrading to?
[Edit]
Oh ya, I plan on getting the Galaxy Nexus in late November :3 I have always wanted a Nexus on Verizon. That with a grandfathered unlimited plan? YAY!
I will get whatever quad core phone is out when I can renew (in January ) as long as it's 4g, I'll be happy
Sent from my Eris using xda premium
Oops, I didn't think to include a "Better future phone" as a poll option, sorry all :3
I had a Bionic for a little while, but exchanged it for a Droid 3 the other day. The Bionic kept dropping data randomly, in spots where I knew there was a great 3G signal. I really don't need 4G bandwidth on a phone anyway, was looking for a solid radio for a change that wouldn't stutter or drop calls (so, Moto was a plus), the world phone is a plus. I know that all of the 4G phones have had data issues, and I wanted something I could count on while Verizon works out the 4G bugs. The D3 is still dual core, and has the same qHD on a smaller display. Bonus: it's a world phone. I may be traveling to Europe during this contract.
Also, the Bionic was really too big for what I wanted, so, to me, the Nexus looks like Maxwell Smart's shoe phone. I think I'd go Razr over the Nexus if I wanted a 4G phone, but that's me.
If I had to upgrade today, it would be the HTC Thunderbolt. It's not perfect, but when I played with one in the Verizon store it seemed slick and faster than the Incredible 2.
I like HTC since Motorola has been hostile to people who want to root their phones, and Samsung has lagged on updating to newer versions of Android.
Now that HTC has decided to pay blackmail to Microsoft over patent suits (like Samsung and several others), they're no longer pure. Motorola is the only company that hasn't bent over for Microsoft and I hope they stand up and sue to prove Microsoft is bluffing.
So who knows what things will look like in January when I upgrade. I might be buying a Motorola.
Hi all,
I'll be eligible for an upgrade in a couple of weeks, and while my Eris running GSB has been great fun, I am ready for something that's faster, has more memory and a better screen. My wife has a DInc and I like it--excellent screen, a nice size--not too small, nor too large--and the browser is so much faster than on my Eris.
Therefore, I'm thinking about the DInc2, which adds in the ability to run a SIM when traveling outside the US as a nice perk. While Sense is attractive, I'll probly want to root it soon, both to de-bloat it and find a custom ROM that suits me.
So what current Vzw phones are you considering as a step-up after your Eris? Is 4g really valuable, if you're not streaming music or movies (I don't)? And does 4g suck battery and bandwidth (I'm hoping to keep my legacy unlimited data plan but don't know yet how that will work out). I'm not sure I like some of the newer humongous-sized phones, so a middle-sized device feels the best compromise.
Suggestions?
Thx in advance...
I will be getting the Galaxy Nexus once it is released
Either the Galaxy Nexus or Droid Razr perhaps unless Razr ships with locked bootloader.
I'm upgrading to the Galaxy Nexus in December, and I too am on a legacy unlimited plan. To the best of my knowledge we can upgrade to a 4G phone without loosing it, but I will probably have 4G off most of the time to save battery. I have wanted a Nexus on Verizon since the Nexis One and it is a huge upgrade over this phone (but I will always love my little Eris) so that is what I plan to get
As for the Droid Incredible 2, it would be a solid phone and nice upgrade, but you would be buying yesteryear's technology. But it would be better than no upgrade at all. Good Luck
P.S. Be sure to check out the dev community around any phone you are thinking about, the Nexus family usually has a large one but I don't know about the Droid Inc. 2

I love my Eris. But gave it to my daughter and upgraded to the Dinc2. I like the not too large footprint. Rooted easily. Great battery life. And a reasonable price.
I'll take some flames here and say the HTC Trophy 7:3
The Eris was the first and the last Android phone I will ever have. Only downside is the Trophy can't tether at this point, so I keep the Eris around only for tethering.
Down to one
Well this weekend I couldn't pass up the deal on the red DInc2. I upgraded my wife to one for free!! Soon we will have no Eris's in the house, I just need for the Galaxy Nexus to come out.

REZOUND!
I went with the Rezound on launch day. I am so glad I got this phone. This thing is quick and has decent battery. I'm getting about 17-20 hours depending on my use(I have just 4g LTE turned on, with both LTE/CDMA it sucks the battery down. Just CDMA also allows better battery. You need the app LTE onoff to achieve just LTE on.). I know a lot of people say no because it doesn't have S-Off yet. The only reason I need S-Off is to permanently remove the bloatware. The phone has temp-root and you can freeze apps and it will stick on reboot. But honestly even with the bloatware this thing is fast and no memory problems!
The rezound sounds nice, but I went with the Tbolt a couple weeks ago. I got a good deal on it. I rooted it as soon as I got it, and so far I have had no problems out of it. With a custom rom running on it, I am getting better battery than my wife's stock dinc2 even with 4g turned on all the time. I think this is still a good phone to think about now that the price has come down.
My contract with Verizon ended yesterday so now I'm month to month on my unlimited data plan for my wife and I. I'm really having a hard time deciding what my next phone will be. We're both still rocking the OG Droid, and while Verizon has its holy trinity of new phones out now, each one of them has things about it that turn me off, so I've been having a hard time picking which one to go with.
Meanwhile, Amazon has its penny pincher sale going on and I'm really tempted to just get a Galaxy S2. It's not a perfect phone either, but it has more of the total package for me than any other phone right now and to get 2 of them basically for free is hard to pass up. I keep playing with it at Best Buy and going back to the ridiculously gorgeous screen and insane performance. I'd also be able to save a little money monthly as I could get a plan with fewer minutes on AT&T due to the unlimited mobile to any mobile package they have.
With that said it'd tough to justify leaving Verizon. Their service has been incredibly reliable for me over the last two years, and unlimited data is tough to give up. Looking at my usage over the last few months it looks like I don't ever use much more than a gig of data on either line, but part of that is b/c my Droid sucks for any kind of multimedia and VZW's 3G is pretty slow. I think I could manage with the 2 gigs on each line, but I hate to give up unlimited on general principle. I'm also worried that AT&T's coverage won't be as reliable as VZW's, although I do like that their 3G speeds are much better so it wouldn't be the all or nothing type performance that VZW's cdma/LTE combo gives.
Has anyone else made this kind of switch, and does anyone think it's a good move or should I just stick with VZW?
For what it's worth I live in the Denver area so if there's anyone on here in that area I'd love to hear your thoughts on AT&T's coverage.

Well I believe Amazon's 1 cent sale only runs through Monday, so if I was going to pull the trigger on a switch I'd like to do it while I can get the GS2 basically for free.
As for the Nexus, I'm sure the user experience is going to be amazing on it and the screen is probably killer as well, but lack of an SD slot and kind of an average camera for such a high end phone has kind of turned me off to it. Eventually I'll get ICS on whatever phone I get, but I won't be able to improve the hardware of whatever phone I get.
The phone that I like best of the big 3 on Verizon is the Rezound actually. The screen is very nice and it has all the features I want. I expect it to be a beast when it gets rooted. With that said, the GS2 is just such a smooth phone.
I was thinking the opposite ..would it be stupid to leave at&t on unlimited w/ gs2 still within 30 days return and head to Verizon. :/

The iPhone 2 trick still gives any at&t user unlimited data for $30 a month.
I completely understand what you mean about the selection at Verizon though. Their phones are just not competative.
I have a few friends that were really looking forward to getting the sgsii when if came to Verizon. They were all mad when it came out that Verizon turned down the offer of getting the sgsii. Sure the nexus will be going there first, but it's not mind blowing. Really thought google would've went above and beyond with 'their' phone.
I've really been loving this phone. I waited 1 1/2 years to get this phone. Not this particular phone, but one that had all the high points. Fast dual core, 1gb ram, great screen, nfc, solid dev support. While I'm sad it didn't come with an FM radio, I really couldn't ask for anything more out of this phone.
In my opinion, if you don't go for this phone, wait for the quad cores. They'll be coming somewhat soon. I can't see any reason to go with another phone (with the exception of the Samsung note, but I know I'd use that screen size for my work).

By putting your sim card into an Iphone 2 it force upgrades your plan to unlimited. Part of how that phone was designed. There's a few more steps than that but the rest can be found by searching google, and if the other thread was deleted I don't want to be the cause of this thread getting removed.

Was also going to mention the iPhone trick. The SGS 2 is a really nice phone. I had the I9100. Two of my friends have the ATT version and they are identical except the domestic version doesn't have the physical home button. There is even a hack to get I9100 rome on the ATT version now.
If you can get that phone for a penny it is definitely a good deal. Head over to the xda marketplace and see if there is an OG iPhone available. Several of the regulars have them.
The best thing about ATT is that you can swap phones at anytime...if you're a phone whore like me that's a big deal
Good luck bro!

I would for sure reccomend this phone. I came from a dumbphone to this, so anything was better, but everything you talked about liking is exactly why this phone rocks. I picked mine up at radio shack for $50 but that was because I only had an upgrade. I still feel like I got a steal. Pull the trigger!

The phone itself is AMAZING, but I don't know if I could recommend it enough to leave unlimited data. My personal 2 cents.
I would see how att's coverage is in your area. Every place is different. Here it's about the same as Verizon but i know plenty of places where it is not. Verizon's 3g is God awful, but their lte is so bad ass. Unlimited data is not an issue as others have mentioned. Good luck

This phone is the best. I went to this phone from a Verizon galaxy s. I still have my Verizon account though. And am going back as soon as galaxy nexus comes out. And I think galaxy s2 may just be better. But......att is not as good as Verizon. Their data speed tests about twice as fast Verizon but ping is twice as slow. So in actuality they are pretty close in speed. That is until Lte. And 3g here drops off once you leave main cities. On Verizon 3g is everywhere. I really miss Verizon and can't wait til galaxy nexus comes out. I just ordered a rezound for my girlfriend so I'm gonna use that til gnex and let her use the sgs2. And I really love this phone. It perfect. But not worth att. Also since switching I have noticed call quality go down and more dropped calls. Not that anyone really uses the phone anymore. My mom got a thunderbolt and Lte is nice. Quick tests I got 100 ping and 9 down and 6 up. So yeah. Stay with Verizon. They really are better. Even if att has the best phone. And I'm really disappointed with the gnex. Camera seems to be a flop and I think anything bigger than the sgs2 is too big. There are many times I have to stretch my fingers to the top. Not bad but this is the limit. This is all from a heavy user.

Depends on your area I guess. Does Verizon have more of a reliable coverage area for you, or does AT&T?
Also, how much data do you and your wife consume? If not a whole lot, 2GB may be fine for you until you do the iphone trick. If you do use a lot of data, then having unlimited already with Verizon might be a dealbreaker for you.
Remember, new phones are always coming out. Just because Verizon dosent have any phones that you REALLY like right now dosent mean that they wont have any next month or after the first of the year.
Iphone 2g tricks is the way to go with att. Did it myself and hooked up my friends do. Still works ;-)

I am torn trying to decide whether it's a wise move to switch from T-mobile to AT&T to get the Note. I'd hate to switch then 1 month later the phone comes to T-Mobile. It pains me thinking about AT&T but I really want this phone. Using it on 2G won't work for me. Has anyone switched or are there other people that feel the same?
I replaced my Sensation with an AT&T Note hoping that we can get T-Mobile 3G working on it sometime soon. For the time being, it runs just fine. I am near WiFi 90% of the time anyway, and those LTE speeds aren't too shabby of a backup plan.
BTW, this phone is the best device that I have owned. Even with EDGE and Gingerbread, this is better than my previous combination of a Sensation running ICS and a Transformer Prime.
I am on the the boat... I am coming from Sprint... I wanted this phone so decided to give the 30 day trial a try... The data service is slower than the sprint service here at home... I'm running edge with at&t and its slooowww... But I love this phone... The screen is awesome... I describe it as having a 1080p tv.. I have the the galaxy sii and it feels like running 480 tv. its like night and day... Just my opinion...
If you are thinking about getting the note.. Try to get it at 50% off through the at&t website... Don't cancel your service with t-mobile... If you decide that your going to keep it then you can just port your number over to the note.. And they wont charge you if you do it before the 30 days...
Also if you keep it, and tmobile gets this phone in a few months... You can just pay the EFT of 325... and if you add the 150 you paid it comes out to 475 total for phone... thats good compared to what the retail price is... 699... just something to think about...

Switched to ATT for speed, and now I am using the NOTE, and it kicks all other cell phones I have had. love the screen and the response.
@towncop1978 Unfortunately, I have a family plan so ETF would be $650. Also, I tried the 50% off and for whatever reason it doesn't work with a family plan. Unless I was doing something wrong.
I think its worth the switch. That's what I did, I had the GS2 with T-Mobile and canceled my contract sold the GS2 on ebay and haven't looked back.

The Note is a great piece of hardware. AT&Ts HSPA+ speeds are surprising the heck out of me after using Verizon and Sprint 3G for the last year and a half.
If the SERVICE is good or better than what you have now, no reason not to switch! However, dont get caught up in the hardware if the network cant provide whats needed to keep it working. Just something to think about.

I switched from TMo to At&T about a week ago specifically for the Note. I loved my Vibrant, but it was ageing and I had to move on. I went from $50 for unlimited everything to paying twice as much for 450 min/unlimited txt/5g data. On the good side my company pays 75% of my bill so I'm still paying less then I was at TMo, I just miss not worrying about data usage. I never make phone calls so minutes I couldnt care less about. So far I'm happy with it, but would switch back in a heart beat if TMo released the Note on their network.
I came from Verizon had had the iPhone 4S been drooling for the note ever since I saw the international one then AT&T releases it good times got 30 days to decide but it's not looking good for the iPhone

Really you must be bored ........
••••changes with every flash••••
I am done with contract phones. I like my note and as long as it functions normally I see no reason to upgrade it. I have 4 phones on my plan and the last contract ends in September. After that I'm going to try straight talk or TMobile. Of my 4 phones, I have 1400 minutes, two data plans, nation wide, unlimited texting and I get a 25% discount through my job and I'm still paying $200 a month. If I switched to ST or TM, I can get 4 phones with full data....etc for the same price. Granted you don't get 4G LTE, but I really wouldn't miss that HSPA+ and 3G is good enough for me.
When one of my phones dies, I'll gladly search Craigslist and buy something to replace it used...
I just finally dumped my ATT Uverse...... ATT sucks

I'm sticking with my Note i717 until Note 3 is out AND has good Cyanogenmod support. Can't stand using non-AOSP ROMs. I will never buy a device without a wacom stylus again, the Note has proven it to be a great feature. I like the 5+ inch screen size as well. I wish Note 3 went back to 16:10 (maybe 1920x1200) but I'll probably still get it regardless as long as there's a T-Mobile supported version I can get off contract, and preferably with a Qualcomm SoC because Exynos sucks for open source ROMs it seems.

As long as devs port the newest Android OS to the Note, I will most likely stick with it. I don't like the physical Home button, on newer Galaxy S# and Note# phones. Maybe the Galaxy Mega or HTC One Max (if it has an SD card slot).
For FOREVER. If it will last that long c: I'd say at most . . . two years. I just ordered my Note a few days ago off of eBay and I'm patiently waiting for it to arrive. I'm leaving my Pantech Burst behind (I'm gonna miss it), but this phone will be an upgrade. I can't wait to see what it can do
Will be upgrading in Sept.

I'm patiently waiting for the Note 3. I just recently purchased the AT&T S4's for my wife and two sons and they are great devices, yet I love the larger screen on the Note. I've had the Note since it came out and waited on it for about 4-6 months prior to release after reading about it. Since purchase I have many cases, battery wall charger and 3 batteries (which in always carry 1 extra in pocket). If the Note came in a 6 inch screen like the Mega I'd love it, but the Mega's specs aren't very appealing to me. With the rumors mentioned about the Note 3 seems like I won't get 6 inch, more like 5.7 following the .2 increase from Note 1-2. Now regarding network I would NEVER go to anything less than LTE again after being spoiled with these blazing speeds of 60 mbps + . The service is sometimes almost 2x my home network speed (30 mbps Charter) and almost 5x the speed of regular U-Verse speed (10-12mbps if they are lucky). If been using JellyBean Sandwich Rom which has kicked every other ROMs butt (in my opinion) regarding stability, battery life and sheer performance and kept me satisfied with my Note 1. Hopefully we will see more about Note 3 soon.
My son is getting great battery life on his Note 2 even not rooted. I may go with the N2 or maybe the Note 3 if Samsung doesn't run it with the new Tizen operating system. I have been eagerly awaiting the N3 ...but fear they will ruin it.
