Best phone I have had to date and I've had almost all of them. Will some phones have issues yes of course but it's the same with everything tech.
For a 1400mah battery it gets amazing battery life IMO, I charge it over night run bamf with 1.2ghz oc and charge last a full day unless heavy video or gaming so about the same as my droid x with a 1540mah battery running 1ghz. And FYI not a single reboot for me but I never installed a troublesome gingerbread rom like most people with issues.
I had a fascinate which is galaxy s super amoled and the screen on the tbolt is very close to super amoled in rich colors. And if it ain't got htc sense I won't own it from here on out as sense is just leaps and bounds better then stock android and touchwiz is kiddy garbage and a lagfest.
Also stay clear of samsung unless u like plastic devices that run eclair and look like a iPhone
Last but most important u can talk and surf over 3G or 4g no other Verizon phone can say that.
