Debating if I should buy a Rezound. Would like to get some tips and opinions.

[sr.torres22]

Hello, I'm currently a Bionic owner and have been fortunate enough to have purchased a "good" one. Lately i have been looking into other Android phones by HTC and Samsung. I understand this will be more of a personal thing, but i noticed a lot of ex Bionic owners are pleased with their exchanged Rezounds. Would anybody recommend going for the Rezound? Any pros? Cons?

I love my Rezound, although I'm a big fan of the Bionic and Razr!

I have had no problems or complaints about my rezound. Definitely an upgrade from my old d1. The camera is simply amazing! I just put an ics Rom on my phone and now the panoramic camera is an added amazing bonus to an already great camera.

I cant honestly think of anything the Bionic does better than the Rezound (except the name...it does have a better name). I would definitely swap them in your case.

Pros: Awesome camera (both front and back), solid 4G and the best GPS I have seen on a phone. Best pixel density of any phone right now (better than the Retina display on the iPhone), and it is significantly higher resolution than the Bionic. It has both SD and a Removable battery (And 64 gig SD cards have been confirmed to work on it). It comes with expensive earbuds. It has a faster processor than the Bionic.

Cons: Buttons are too flush to the case. It is thicker and heavier than most of it's competitors (including the Bionic, though not by a lot). It is polluted with Sense UI (I'm not a fan of Vendor UIs). Battery could be better, but I dont know how it compares to the Bionic.

Thank you JeffDenver!!! This is exactly the info i was looking for. Honestly like the Bionic, but i can't stand the camera at all. If the Rezounds camera is that good. I defiantly will. : D

This thread has many photos in it so you can judge for yourself.

Photos Taken With Your Rezound Camera! - Android Forums at AndroidCentral.com
I get comments on it all the time though

Here are some of mine that are on that thread:







This was taken with the Panorama mode (no app, just the mode on the camera):

Those are using untweeked default settings. The panorama shot is a composite of three images...the rezound's panorama mode is very intuitive and easy to use.

Nice, defiantly a major difference from the MOTOBLUR camera. Very good.

A lot of other people have said this is a great media phone and they are right. The Sense interface is smooth and friendly. The camera takes good video and stills.

As for the battery life; I have found turning off 3/4G and using Wi-Fi when available makes a huge difference in battery life. If you have to use 3/4G, use only 4G when necessary. I installed a program called LTE switch to toggle 3/4G. With 4G off that also makes big difference in life. Most of the time Wi-Fi is as fast as 4G, so with the much greater battery life makes it an easy decision which one to use.

I have never looked back from my old Lg EnV3 phone.
