Are you still happy with your Thunderbolt?

[pcar1947]

I was happy with my DeadBolt but it was time to move on. I have had it since day One and all things considered it has been a great phone.My early upgrade date is 1/12/13 and I am on unlimited data. After playing with my Daughter Jelly Bean Galaxy S3, I bought one off of EBAY as I didn't want to give up my Unlimited Data.
I looked at the DNA but Storage and Battery were my issue.

I am sure sooner or later VZW will find a way to get us off of our Unlimited Plans. Lets hope it Later then sooner!

If you got the Thunderbolt day 1 (March 17th 2011 I believe), your upgrade would have been available mid-November of this year.

I believe my update date would depend on my contract date! I received my Thunderbolt in March 2011 according to my records. I pre-ordered it and it was an early upgrade to my Droid Incredible!

I got mine last March and was up for renewal this month.... Nov.

Yes, everyone who ordered it in March should have their upgrade come up this month.

I broke down and got the Galaxy S3 and couldn't be happier. I went out to Costco on Black Friday, got a 16 GB in white for $50 (after a rebate) and was able to use my brothers upgrade (whos on a flip phone plan) to keep my unlimited data. After contemplating the Nexus 4, the cons outweighed the pros and the Galaxy S3 seemed like a no brainer- it has a huge dev base, is a widely popular phone and should be supported for a while. The biggest flaw with the Nexus is the stupid lack of storage, which is mind-numbingly low- why does Google want to suddenly cripple its users ability to store photos, music and stuff on their phones is beyond me.

Looking back, I wish I did this earlier, but I have no complaints on the discount I got on BF. If your looking right now, I think the GS3 is the way to go. Not a big HTC fan after my Thunderbolt experience and I need an unlocked bootloader since I want to easily flash ROMs on my phone (making the Razr Maxx HD out). And the Note II is too huge. My contract will be done in May, and if VZ ever takes away my unlimited data, I'll consider jumping ship then. For now, I'll enjoy my unlimited data, my excess storage capacity, and sweet new phone.

I too broke down n bought a S3 off of ebay. I have unlimited data n didn't want to loose it. S3 is a great phone n a significant upgrade over tbolt (bigger screen, faster) What I do miss is my "Rooted tbolt" . I m trying to hold off rooting my s3 until I get the jelly bean upgrade but I don't know if it is worth it!

Do the Samsung phones have flash and adobe like the tbolt?
