I WANT THIS PHONE (but)
Feb 19, 2020, 3:48 PM
in the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip forum

First off the Razr is OUT of the question. I went to a Verizon Wireless store and let us just say folks, you please be the judge. I will not give an opinion. I did go to Best Buy to look at their live demo of the Z-Flip, and I will say what a beautiful and substantial phone. I continue to fight myself telling me to just WAIT until Samsung is going to do if ...

Re: Phone Color Is Irrelevant to Me - UPDATE
Mar 29, 2015, 8:49 AM
in the Verizon forum

I can & will agree with you, most people do. I use a soft leather sleeve on my phones. So far I have been lucky NOT to drop one to date. UPDATE: I went to Best Buy to play with the s6 Edge. While VERY impressed, I was more impressed with the Note4 Edge. IMO only. Why? While the new s6 is indeed beautiful, I found it odd that the s6 was not built even better ...

Re: Unlimited Data Plan Grandather? I took the plunge finally yesterday.
Jun 22, 2011, 8:55 PM
in the Verizon forum

YES, I held out as long as I could being greedy with my upgrades. The VzW corp. store even concurred that the Data Plans will be changing effective the date stated within this forum above. I will be safe for 2 years, UNLESS, I change Smartphones within the 2 year timeframe. Then I was told that I would be forced over to the new Data level Plan. Funny, I read 'somewhere' as to where they ...

Re: I think Verizon has a solid line up of Smart Phones. - Question?
Jun 17, 2011, 5:01 PM
in the Verizon forum

Do you all feel that Verizon will take away the UNLIMITED DATA soon, or just speculation (anyone have dates)? Second, same for the NE2? I hate to be pressured into something that I do not exactly want, BUT, I do not want to waste the opportunity to save a buck either while I can. Thanks.

in the Verizon forum

ok guys, i got the message. i realize that many of you have far much better technical knowledge than i. when i was most your age, i had to do a *18 just to roam. it is just like everything seems to be the same thing these days. i guess that a carrier can only pack so much close to the same thing in each phone depending on each manufacturer. i guess what i ...

Re: Verizon? Amazing responses
Jun 16, 2011, 12:23 AM
in the Verizon forum

Once again, I just wanted to give IMO, and sure enough, I was slammed. OK you all win. Like I have said in previous posts, VzW I feel is and has the most superior network par none, but not that exiting of Smartphone selections. So you don't agree? I would think that y'all would have been respectful with some of your feedback. (BTW, no I am not going to TM to try their phones, ...

Verizon?

Before I get bashed again by the VzW Kool-aid drinkers, look at the new 4G HTC Sensation that worthless T-Mobile is going to offer Wednesday. Thinner, faster, made out of Aluminum construction, curved glass, dual core more pixels. Yes indeed, VzW does like their plastic thicker brick Smartphones that's for sure. Oh, maybe it is the HTC Thunderbolt's 'flashlight' that makes it 8mm thicker. lol /;|

Re: what is wrong with YOU?

in the Verizon forum

NEWSFLASH back to you, maybe they SHOULD learn LESSONS from Apple, huh? They seem to be doing pretty good $$$$$$$$ these days. And yes, maybe they SHOULD also listen to the 'simple small man's voice' for once? Instead of what they 'think' we might like.

Re: WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU VERIZON?
Jun 6, 2011, 6:26 PM
in the Verizon forum

YES, I deserve the critics lashing out there. I was looking at Sprints phones, not ATT. :oops: Again, VzW (IMO) is the best. I just hope that something (moreso) cool comes around the corner very soon. I realize that it is sometimes hard to keep reinventing the wheel or should I say the thicker LTE plastic 'Black Slab'. The 3D phone looks pretty cool though. I wonder if VzW will or would pick up on that ...

Re: WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU VERIZON?
Jun 3, 2011, 3:49 PM
in the Verizon forum

Splinter, I absolutely agree with your comments. First off, the network is par none. Other carriers pretend to come close, but they cannot, no matter how they try to convince the common man. But just think 'if' VzW ALSO turned to provide the leading edge with their devices, how much more (possibly) they could win customers over to them? They would provide and offer everyone with the best of both worlds! VzW quit being so conservative!! Again, I am not calling the ...

Re: There's nothing better than a FLIP PHONE!
Jun 3, 2011, 1:29 PM
in the Verizon forum

Amen brother! I am getting so sick of the same old square black blocks which by the way are getting thicker and thicker. Gone are the day you have a small flip to put in a pocket. I guess the kids these days MUST have a minature computer with them at all times. They can't wait to get to home and/or to work to use a real one. Again, if the carriers did not promote or push these ...

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU VERIZON?
Jun 3, 2011, 1:23 PM
in the Verizon forum

All of a sudden, Verizon has nothing but lame Smartphones. I am so embarrassed that they basically reinvented the wheel with the Droid X2 instead of moving forward with a LTE Moto. Yes, the other carriers SUCK when it comes to their 3/4G networks, but gosh almighty, look at their equipment. Sprint will have a 3D phone, ATT already has beat Verizon with their Moto thin LTE phone (which is getting pretty good reviews). NO, I am NOT leaving ...

Re: Does anyone know when the new Motorola LTE is due to be released? ....
May 22, 2011, 10:15 PM
in the Verizon forum

yeah, you guys are correct. i was tired ranting on and on. it was the one response that caught me off guard. first, i love vzw, and i do realize that 4g is new and it will get better. it is just the phones that i felt should be a tad better. i realize they will get better and better in time as like with everything else. i am a moto fan, and ...

May 21, 2011, 9:57 PM
in the Verizon forum

ok, wow.... i sure hope that you don't work for VzW with that positive and upbeat attitude. i might have rambled, but within your pleasant response, may i ask what insanely idiotic thing that you personally disagreed with? look at the reviews with the current VzW LTE phones and YOU tell me? i do not see a 5-star rating, so humm could YOU be the idiot? you have a nice day mr. bill. :wink:

Re: Several "X" Features - Vital for Bionic!
May 20, 2011, 11:56 PM
in the Motorola Droid Bionic (old) forum

I agree!! They took the Red button off of the Droid X2 and I ask why Verizon/Moto? That was a small little feature, but VERY nice to have!!!! That alone can help sell a device.

Does anyone know when the new Motorola LTE is due to be released? ....
May 20, 2011, 11:49 PM
in the Verizon forum

I am hoping soon. I am now waiting for VzW to get their current LTE crap out of the way that they are offering with all the Battery problems, etc. If the new Moto LTE phone is aslike the other 3G Moto Smarties, then I will grab that. As for the future delay after delay with the Apple LTE phone, they can go kiss the sky, I am not waiting forever. You would think with ...

Re: Samsung Charge?
May 17, 2011, 8:00 PM
in the Verizon forum

Since some of you guys/gals are employee's, do you have a pref between the Thunderbolt vs. the Charge? My gut feeling is to still hold out. I played with the Charge, and flipping between the screens seemed as a severe delay. Plus I really did not like the plastic feel. The colors though were beyond beautiful though!! Best I have seen to date. It seems as if every 6 weeks, a new device suddenly ...

Samsung Charge?
May 17, 2011, 4:57 PM
in the Verizon forum

I really want this phone but no one has really given a ownership review yet. I am wondering if this phone is or is not popular. Any information would be great. Thanks everyone! :wink:

Has anyone bought a new 'CHARGE" yet?
May 17, 2011, 4:55 PM
in the Samsung Droid Charge forum

I really would like to get one, but I do not want to make a move without feedback. Apparently by looking at the non-exist ant reviews, this phone is stale.

Re: LG Dare - THICKNESS! - QUESTION VZW Reps please!!!...........
Jun 26, 2008, 3:01 PM
in the Verizon forum

your website states that it is 0.73 thick.....is this correct or incorrect? it will be a stubby phone as thick as the voyager if it is. -not too good!!!!!

Re: LG Dare - THICKNESS!
Jun 26, 2008, 5:45 AM
in the Verizon forum

the vzw website states when you review their specifications the DARE is THICKER than the voyager. how can this be? .73 inches!? i am ready to hit an upgrade trigger, but i will keep my voyager instead if that is the case. no pun intended.

DARE preorder question ........

Would anyone know if Verizon is going to have a pre-order program with the Dare? If so, possibly when? Thanks!

Vz Wireless Voyager Rant
Nov 20, 2007, 12:14 PM
in the Verizon forum

first off, i know that i am being too impatient, but i must make a rant. i preordered a voyager which may or may not be available to ship out tomorrow. if it does, i am told that i would not receive it until next week due to the holidays. i was also informed that the official stores will only receive around 5 phones per store (i played with it at circuit city. the official stores would ...

THANK YOU both for this information.

Question please?
Oct 9, 2007, 6:13 PM
in the Verizon forum

I am REALLY thinking about making a career move. I am interested in possibly applying at VZW on line. May I ask without stepping outside the confidential box, what a Store Sales Rep pay 'range' might be? I realize that you folks are on commission and that there are many variables, but I just wanted to ball park range? Would working in a customer center be more lucrative? Thanks.

face the issue people!!
Oct 7, 2007, 12:47 PM
in the Verizon forum

funny how i read comments like is this person an employee? fact is i live in dallas, if any one of you experience a 6 hour TOTAL outage for which YOU depend on service, i think you folks would be singing a complete different tune. wait until it happens to you!! that is why i terminated my local landline. because i had full faith in vzw. now i need to possibly get it back. vzw ...

Re: Outage in Texas
Oct 6, 2007, 9:52 AM
in the Verizon forum

you were very polite not to bash my earlier comments. a 5 hour outage in a city of millions especially on the biggest weekend of the dallas year was very unfortunate timing.

Re: Outage in Texas
Oct 5, 2007, 9:47 PM
in the Verizon forum

YEP, VZW has alot of splaining ta do. Dallas is having one of their most important weekends. State fair and the local OU vs. UT rivalry. Most of you laugh, but of all times to be flat on VZW _ss, not a good Friday afternoon 5 hour total outage. Better offer those pretty phones NOW to save customers in the Dallas area, it's called Monday morning porting! Tonight ATT is really laughing. an outage ...

Re: LG EnV in other colors??? - Green only at CC!!
Sep 6, 2007, 9:51 PM
in the Verizon forum

at CC it is exclusive as of last sunday. $129 minus a $50 mail-in......MUCH cheaper than on-line or at an official VZW store. incredible price to help boost CC env sales. gi-joe green, harley orange, or basic silver............YES, i wish they did have just BLACK. it would even make it look thinner. cannot wait for the lg 10000 though, i hope it becomes a reality! sa-weet!!

LG vx10000 'enV' - WOW!
Sep 4, 2007, 9:12 PM
in the Verizon forum

have you folks seen the new LG vx10000. all that i can say is A-W-E-S-O-M-E. it appears to be wider, very thin and a wide screen inside. this appears that this will be a fantastic seller for verizon. look on gizmodo.com under verizon. i hope that they will follow through with this beauty!!

Please help- question on future PDA launching ..........
Sep 4, 2007, 6:58 PM
in the Verizon forum

I want to port my number over to Verizon, but I am waiting for either the Blackbery Curve or the Pearl, possibly the Samsung i760 PDA's to be offered. Does anyone out there have any idea when any of the 'rumored' phones would be launched? If anyone has any idea, I would be ever grateful. Thanks. :wink:

Re: green env - an idea!
Aug 13, 2007, 5:16 PM
in the Verizon forum

hey, why doesn't vz come out with a rainbow colored one? that way, they don't have to constantly re-invent the wheel with 20 separate colors of the same goddamn phone! ....what a freak'n joke. :lol:

anymore what vzw has to offer are are POS's. i would be ashamed vzw. where are they getting these college graddie kiddies who decides their offered products?? :roll: what other color are you offering next and on what phone?

Re: LG Prada? Better not
Jul 27, 2007, 9:44 PM
in the Verizon forum

If VzW lets this one slip through their hands, which they probably will, there is no hope for them. LG Prada GSM version has been out for a long time, just check Ebay. Oh well, it's Friday, short rant. Maybe if Vodaphone buys VzW out, that will straigthen out VzW's big headed stupidity.

:evil: I have the 8700 and it is true for mine 2 replacement times now. I do not know who to blame LG (aka GOLDSTAR!) or Verizon Wireless (aka Bell Atlantic!)nuff said.......HEY, I'M STILL WAITING ON THE IPOD KILLER WITH A GOOD BATTERY VERIZON INSTEAD OF THIS MULTI-COLORED CRAP CHOCOLATE T-Mobile type kiddy phone. Cater once to your high paying suit/dress wearing adult customers who would like a very nice built phone. Hummmmmm, I wonder what color LG ...

the president of verizon corp ivan s. stated last month in the ny times that they WILL have a CDMA version of the prada phone this year. release date to be determined. yes dear, i realize that verizon does not make phones, but they do have a choice what they want to sell. 15 colors or varitions of the lg chocolate or razr, krzr, does not cut it. and no, i am not leaving verizon they have the best ...

ok, ok already. YES, i did get if off of my chest. second, i will not back down, vz was greedy, they wanted full control. enough of that, it is a done deal, so we all move on. hell no, i am not leaving the best network. but i am hoping that vzw does not miss the boat this time around, and launches a great product soon! do the math, they can winback customers that they ...
