Or a Motorola with an encrypted bootloader and a camera that takes awful pictures.

First it is a phone!!! My old DX took great pictures compare with any of my friends HTC phones. I do not root sot the lock boot loader does not matter to me. But didn't they unlock the DX. So what is your argument? I would rather have great battery life a phone that takes ok pictures, and a lock boot loader that will eventually get unlocked from Motorola or Samsung over HTC bad battery life any day.

Oh Yeah Check This Out!! I am guessing the Bionic will not be far behind!!!

I had a dx and it took grainy shots. It wasn't good. The dx was just a good phone because of the battery which was huge, and it served its purpose as a phone great. Internet was choppy on it and I only noticed it when switching to the thunderbolt. Applications like camera took five seconds to open. My thunderbolt even stock was blazing fast. When it comes to performance htc is the best hands down. Battery motorola is the best and that's cause they put huge batteries in their phones

No about the battery sizes and Motorola phones. Droid 2 has a 1400 mAh battery, Droid 3, Droid X1 and 2 has a 1500 Mah battery. Thats not huge. Thats average with the 1400 leaning towards smaller. Only Motorola phone that has a huge battery is the Atrix at 1900 mAh with the Photon next at 1700 mAh. HTC just uses some skimpy batteries most of the times and really...battery life just isnt one of HTC's strong points. Anandtech battery life tests:

Its not just the battery...Motorola does something to their phones that give them good battery life.

And Droid X1 pics:

Post pictures you have taken with your Droid X - Android Forums

Even tho some pics are removed....just check the comments. The X has a decent camera. Might not be the best, but it isnt as bad as some ppl make it out to be. Unless you are a camera buff. Then...I dont know what to tell you...lol

Droid Pro also has a 1400 mAh battery.

Most of the HTC Android phones on that Andndtech battery life test I posted has 1400 and 1500 mAh batteries...

I had the d1 it had horrible battery life. Even though it had a small screen and just 3g.

I had the dx too the camera was horrible in comparison to the thunderbolt

Darn thing looks like a mini-tablet, not a phone! I do like it, though. It looks purty. Too my my upgrade isn't until April! :icon_eek: I would love to have one now!

Well my kids each had an incredible. We had to go to a playoff football game last year. They had their phones turned OFF all day so they could use them on the 2 hour bus trip there and back. The phones were DEAD before we ever got there. Serioulsy, they did not even last the first 2 hour ride up there. They were really upset. Yet my D1, that I had on all day using, still had 3/4 battery life after the 2 hour trip and ready for the return trip. The whole time they had them they complained about the battery, they'd come home from school and have to charge them because they were dead. So we returned them for a D2 and 2 DX, never heard a complaint again about battery life.

I don't even look at HTC phones anymore. I'm not going through that headache again. My touchscreen on my D1 decided to die yesterday, I really hope the Bionic comes out on the 8th cause I gotta have a new phone.

GF will need to pay full price for the phone. VZW got rid of the NE2, unless she has a upgrade left. You may want to check her account either online or at the store. The VZW people are very helpful.

Good luck!
