Droid X or Samsung Fascinate?

[GrillMouster]

i havent played with the samsung yet, but was just wondering about the super amoled and the 1 ghz hummingbird processor? any better than the droid x's

The GPU in hummingbird is faster than the GPU in the TI processors in DX. For 99% of the apps that extra GPU speed might not mean anything at all, but it should result in better 3D gaming. People describe the super amoled screen as being "vibrant". It actually oversaturates colors to an unnatural level. That's not good.

Definitely DX. According to this article (and many others), the Fascinate doesn't have 512MB of RAM, but has 512MB of flash memory...

Leaked Samsung Fascinate Equipment Guide Gives Full Spec Run Down | Android Phone Fans

If I remember correctly, it is said that Gingerbread will at least need 512MB, but I do not know if that was confirmed.

I wish people would quit talking about this. Those were rumors and google shot them down... I mean they got 2.2 running on the G1 and it's specs were horrible...

My bad, I didn't read that. Still, 384MB is a little low.

Not enough of a difference to switch.

I owned the Samsung i910 & the i920 Omnia's.....
NEVER again.
I would change the last to letters of Samsung to "CK"

IMHO

The samsung screen is more vivid on colors, and the processor is the best with gaming, the X has a much better build quality, battery life, memory meaning RAM and internal storage for apps. Im still within my 30 day period as well, but im sticking with the X.

If gaming is your primary concern then def the Fascinate. But funny thing I compared the tmobile versin you tube against my x an oddly enough. My X was richer... go figure. With Froyo coming I heard it make rendering on the X smoother

Hmmm u didnt like the Omnia 2? I feel your pain with the Omnia 1. lol I was so pissed with it I didnt even look twice at the 2. I should thank it tho cuz it scared me so bad with touchscreens it drove me into the arms of the Droid 1. I just knew I needed a slide out keyboard with a touchscreen.

Between the X and Fascinate? Its hard to say. U have Amoled vs. LCD. Each has pros n cons. I personally like LCD.

After that its up in the air...lol

samsung for gaming and lighter phone, but less storage. moto for more storage and sturdier built but not as fast in 3d processing dept.

I also had an Omnia, and also never looked at the Omnia 2. It was my last WinMo phone because I went from it to the Droid then to the X.

With the Fascinate is it going to have battery issues with the amoled screen? The DX is hands down the best phone I've ever had and as a Motorola fanboy, I'll never go to another brand.

so DX > Fascinate?
