Jusoda Kid 1 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Thinking of going for one of these after following J69's advice and refusing to be held ransom to the rip off talk plans for the iphone. So anyone that has got one or used one pipe up, anyone that hasn't, pipe me off! On the surface the reviews they're getting are spot on and apparently the review they got on the gadget show was very good. TIA P.S Save the 'poor mans iphone' comments for J69 eh?

Craig 12390 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 If it's a Windows Mobile device I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole tbh Wacky. We have a shit-load of HTC devices in work running WM6 and quite frankly they're fucking wank - the response times are absolutely abysmal by comparison to other O/Ss. iPhone aside, Symbian devices are the best mobile devices IMO - that said, I haven't had a look at Google's phone.

Andrew 7485 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 the only complaint I've ever heard about android is that it occasionally auto completes the word "and" in texts to "android" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gejon 2 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Mine has never done that but it does occasionaly bring up some random words in the predictive texts which can be a bit annoying at times but that's only because I have little to no patience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khay 10 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I'm getting the HTC HD2 from work. Droids are meant to be quite good. Is the hero not a bit old now I'm sure their are plenty of new google phones coming out soon might be worth holding out a bit longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 5305 Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 I haven't had a look at Google's phone. I haven't tried anything fancy (I have a work Blackberry as my phone) but someone I know has a Google phone and its very impressive. This bloke did have an iPhone and reckons the Google is better.

Jusoda Kid 1 Posted February 23, 2010 Author Share Posted February 23, 2010 I've done a canny bit of research of the last couple of days and from waht I can tell the only real flaws is the camera being a bit shaky and not having a flash (neither has the iphone). Theres around 80 reviews on the gadget show site and I would say 95% are very positive with a lot claiming it to be real contender if not better in some areas than the iphone, and you know how people suck themselves off over that. I've got unlimited internet usage (500mb), 900 minutes any time and unlimited texts for £30 a month which pisses all over any of the contracts the iphone offers, the insurance alone was £12 on the iphone.
