Funny you say that. Just shows how subjective styling is. I have read others say similar things about Samsung since it was announced they would be making the Nexus. (Usually it was said/written by new Bionic owners or others locked into a new contract with another phone, LOL)

So, while I have seen and handled some Samsungs in the past, I decided to really inspect my buddys Samsung phone today at work. It is about 7 months old, I think a Fascinate or Galaxy or something. But it is a relatively higher end version and it was their flagship model when he bought it.

My thoughts were that is was a very nice device. A lot of plastic, but still very well put together and seemed very solid even after about 7 months worth of hard, daily use. I would rate it at least on par with my Incredible, which I think is excellent. If I had to compare it to my Bionic (which I returned after 10 days) I would the Moto was just a tick ahead of the Samsung, due to what I think was more metal in the construction. Of course the Bionic was brand new though.

That's exactly my point it just looks plain but not in a good way like the iphone.
Im still getting this phone at full retail price.
Im just disappointed on how ulgy it looks, no colors or metals nothing just black plastic. Oh and the chin...

And I hope HTC is finally getting their battery issues straightened out. That's why I'll probably be going away from them after having the Inc and Inc 2. Tired of them not fixing it.
