I went to VZW today and played with it over an hour... Everything is smooth on the phone including Sense 4+...It's a shame about the storage..

Just a couple of apps on the phone.. I added Quandrant(7800+)...and you only have 9.47 available..

°BK's pure G-Nex°

Yea, the DNA MAXX with a 3200 mah battery and 64 gig storage. Now even w/o a sd slot, that would be THE phone to have. Pleaaassseeeee HTC. Why can't you release a phone like that???

I think ppl just need to compare it to more similar batteries. Like the GS3 and One X stock batteries. Dont compare it to the Maxx, HD Maxx or Note 2, those batteries are huge. Should the DNA came with a bigger battery? Thats up for debate...but so far battery tests I've seen shows the DNA is decent with battery life.

I wonder why the RAZR isnt on the GSM Arena tests...I see the RAZR i and Maxx. Surprised the RAZR HD's arent on there too.

I kind of resented the fact the RAZR was omitted, I'm still on the fence on the DNA as phone of the month for me. RAZR was livable battery wise for me, kinda miss seeing how much time I could squeeze out of it. A game unto itself.

Yea...I have a Maxx HD now. And I see the difference in battery life. I no longer have to put my phone in Airplane Mode at work and can still use it on the ride home from work with battery to spare. (bad reception area at work, have to put phone in locker, no signal kills batteries) BUT....I felt the RAZR had decent battery life for its battery size and specs.

Keep telling myself to buy/rent and give it a thrashing, if I don't like, razr maxx HD trade in time.

There is absolutely no way the ipoop5 has better battery life than the maxx, it only has a 1440 mah battery.

It does in Web browsing everything else the maxx kicks buttons.

This is a great looking phone except for the lack of an sd card but im determined to give my money to samsung this time around

I could live with the lack of SD slot but having the non removable battery does kind of kill this phone in my eyes.
