I stuck with my G1 for a long time when it very first came out, but that’s because I kinda didn’t have a selection – it was the only Android cellphone out. The HTC Hero, HTC Magic and the Motorola DROID – amongst various Samsung products – were all tempting offerings, but not enough to get me to switch carriers or spend for unsubsidized. I was even a bit skeptical about the Nexus One particular
Then the HTC EVO 4G came out. I paid $ 200 to get out of my contract and switched to Sprint for the mobile phone. After numerous fantastic months of rooting, ROM’ing and modding, the Samsung EPIC 4G grabbed my eye with its Super AMOLED display and 1GHz Samsung Hummingbird processor, not to mention the hardware QWERTY keyboard I had been missing from my G1.
That affair came to an end when America’s first autostereoscopic 3D mobile phone, the HTC EVO 3D was released. I upgraded to that phone, but before this I contemplated switching to Verizon before the tiered information cut-off date. Sadly, they didn’t have the sort of phones I was hunting for.
The Galaxy S II is finally close to release, but it’s taken so extended to get right here that I am now waiting for the Nexus Prime But even with the Nexus Prime on its way, I’ll a lot more than probably acquire the Samsung Galaxy S II unsubsidized. Hell, I almost used my upgrade on a Motorola Photon 4G and I planned on selling both phones to get the dollars to fund all of this switching. I plainly have a difficulty, my close friends.
But I believe I’ll finally slow down once I get some great ol’ stock Android back in my life. If Ice Cream Sandwich is almost everything I’m hoping it will be and if the Nexus Prime hardware impresses, I’ll be set for a extended time.
Are any of you like me? Even if you don’t actually acquire phones as much as I do, have you been waiting and waiting for the best time and mobile phone to upgrade? And if so, do you believe you’ll uncover genuine, Android really like by the finish of the year? Or have you already gotten your prolonged-term phone to keep you wonderful and warm till your upgrade is up?
