HTC phones haven't had much lag since the original droid incredible :shrug: but I guess it is all a matter of opinion! It is true that I have most of my experience and opinions about Motorola due to the Droids 1 and 2, which were so unbelievably slow. But, I am quite surprised to hear someone say that Samsung phones are laggy. What?

I still don't get why they want Motorola so bad. IMO they make the worst android phones out there. Samsung and HTC really know what's up.

Like some other's I have to agree. I had a Moto backflip prior to my D2G, and while it was a small under powered device, once CM6 came around, it made it in to a descent little device so long as you weren't expecting to do hardcore gaming or the like. While my original D2G and original Backflip both required returns due to defects, I have to say my second device of each model has held up quite well. I wont hesitate to go with Moto for a D4(or similar) when my upgrade comes. Now I have not tried Samsung or HTC phones, but I do agree, they seem to be doing good things as well. If they have a good phone that offers a physically tangible qwerty keyboard, I may give them consideration.

It's my opinion they make the best Android phones.

But to answer your question, they want Moto's patent portfolio in order to defend Android from lawsuits. And I think they're tired of Samsung's crap. God knows I got sick of them.

With the exception of the Gallery app I find the latest Blur to be pretty decent. There's nothing about it that bothers me, but I'd still rather have vanilla Android.

Totally agree. Latest blur isn't bad but I prefer the plane jane of stock Android.

I love the GNex right now. It was difficult at first; the battery life was terrible...after root, ROM and a kernel update the battery life is great. Oh yes, and updated radio's.
