Best Android on Verizon as of right now?
I'm the tech guy and a friend is asking what Android phone she should get within the next couple weeks.
She's looking at the Incredible, but I suggested there might be something newer/better.
I know the Thunderbolt (or whatever its called) is coming out next week? I think i'm going to suggest that.
Would anyone suggest anything else?
...
Thunderbolt will be the latest and greatest. It'll basically be the first phone in the 3rd generation of android devices. Incredible was the first in the 2nd generation of devices.
...
Thanks for that.
It's more or less what I was thinking. Like buying a Vista laptop today.
...
Droid X is the best android device we carry at Verizon currently. I would be a little cautious of getting the thunderbolt since it is the 1st 4g phone and coupled with the fact that it has already been pushed back due to problems.
...
if by due to problems you mean shortage of screens, then yes i'd be worried. I don't think at this stage of the game its anything super technical, just short on supplies.
...
The shortage of screens is not the reason it was pushed back. It was pushed back due to problems it was having when switching back and forth between 4 and 3g as well as a problem they are having with battery life.
...
I'll add that to my suggestion 🙂 A lot depends on price and availability as well. My advice, atm, will be
Incredible (100)
Droid X (150)
Thunderbolt (200)
It'll boil down to what she wants to spend and if she's able to wait (Dam impatient kids gotta have NOW NOW NOW)
