Re: The cell phone thread and why

I have my sister's old LG enV. And it's orange, bright orange. It's actually pretty amazing. I've never lost a call and out here everybody loses calls.

She's told me on several occasions that she wants another enV because it has much better reception than her Blackberry.

Re: The cell phone thread and why

Bought an Ericsson Xperia x10 for some weird reason. Bought it on an impulse when I was bored :cookiehand



Remind me never to have money again. :|

Re: The cell phone thread and why

How is Xperia x10?

Oh, and I have Droid X now. :hurr

It's... big. I think my right hand has actually adapted to it since I'm able to spread my thumb to far left now easily whereas it was somewhat a challenge to do so when i first got it. O_o

Re: The cell phone thread and why

I has an iPhone 4 \o/ Good riddance to my old Sony Ericsson I lived with for 2 years which had like 5 defective buttons so I couldn't even type properly or call international numbers (the + didn't work) <.<

I like my phone and I definitely like having a data plan so I can access the internet from practically anywhere. Typing is still a little strange on it, though, and auto correct can be mega epic fail... Other than that, good phone, love the apps :nod

Re: The cell phone thread and why

My mates were all "ooooh x10 mini is way better u suck ololol" but actually I found x10 to be a superb phone in many ways. Sure the battery could last longer but I blame myself for always having the radio on amongst various other apps zat drains les battery

But overall I'd give it a seven or an eight out of ten. I mean, with my sub. it's €30 a month, including phone cost, free calls, free internet usage and free texts, so it's very hard for me to exceed the €30 bill. Which isn't too much and It's certainly worth it considering my previous c702 had a sub. of €25 and that phone _sucked_

Re: The cell phone thread and why

I envy the lot of you because all of you have cool-looking cellphones. I am really not that fond of cellphones so mine is a lot simple as compared to yours.


The only uses for my cellphone are texting, calling, and surfing the internet. Nothing more. ;)

Re: The cell phone thread and why

Nokia is my choise for the last 7 years. I'm just changing types (for now it's 5800 XpressMusic), but in the future I may choose something else.:) It will clearly depend on the money and the options that will provide those cell phones.:)

Re: The cell phone thread and why

I have been using HTC Desire for few months now. Its gotta be one of the best cell phone I ever had and believe me I had lots of them. The touch is marvelous and responsive. 1 Ghz Snapdragon processor makes it lightning quick. The Android market place must be the biggest depository of free Apps and Games. Everything on this phone is A-Ok but it seems to be a little rough with battery usage. Turning off GPS, Google Services and proper changing though makes it last longer but with so many features and toys to play with, it should have a better battery.

Re: The cell phone thread and why

Got an Iphone. Had a long contract with a provider and could switch for a pretty low price, with many free minutes/sms each month.
The app features and good ergonomic handling make it really good for me and I really like all the gimmicks (such as: finding a song title by letting the phone listen to it) and more important features with perfect handling (maps, GPS, compass).
also the display and latest camera are quite nice afaik and I really like taking good photos.

Re: The cell phone thread and why

HTC Incredible on Verizon. I freaking love it~ The only thing I want more is a physical keyboard, like on the EVO Shift. It's very quick, with a great UI and it's very responsive. It makes me happy :3 The only drawback is that Verizon charges an arm and a leg for the data plan :/

Re: The cell phone thread and why

I have a Droid X too.



Just got it a month ago and love it. Very fast, websites load almost as fast as at home. Though I wish a certain manga forum was more phone friendly :oh

And yeah, I feel like Verizon mugged me. $30 a month for data.

Re: The cell phone thread and why

Great to see more Android uses. Its a great platform. I love Droid, too bad it isn't available here. The only issue I have with HTC, not sure about Incredible, they are bit harsh on battery.

@LadyHatake : Have you tried Swype? Its a great App, a good way to type Text quickly.

@Kait: Try to search "Manga" in the Android Market. If I remember correctly, there was an app for manga chapters.

He has MangaWatcher. There's at least three apps for manga, and I have all three of 'em.

Swype can be annoying at times. <_< Most of the time. <_<

So, let's all Android OS users add each other via an app that lets us text each other for free! \o/ Kik or Whatsapp!

MangaWatcher is better IMO. Most of the time anyway. You can download manga chapters, and in the library, it can take out read manga or unread manga and etc.
It used to forceclose a lot when you exited out or stayed off MW after opening it and reopened it, but... not sure about now. <_< After they fixed it, it basically... did the same, but no popups saying it force closed or whatnot. Kinda lose your place, but still.

I have a Droid X too.

My Droid X is sexier than your Droid X. :3c

It's phone friendly enough for me though.

Well, the data plan includes Android Market and apps, as well as browsers. Before you know it, you could use up a lot of data due to apps that may need 'em. Who knows?
