Curve finally crapped out, so going to get Bionic today

**hazelgreen** · 10-16-2011, 10:25 AM

Wish me luck. Really wanted to wait and get an HTC Vigor, but I want a 4G phone, and I think the Bionic is the best of the bunch right now. So we'll see how it goes. New to Droid (husband has one), so this should be very interesting

I promise you won't look back. I switched to a bionic from a storm 2. All I have to say is: damn, I should have gone to android first!

You are going to be THRILLED with all the things an Android phone can do, and the Bionic is an excellent phone in particular. I just got finished doing a lengthy video chat with family that is on the other side of the country. PRICELESS!!!!

I was blown away when I went from a storm2 to the original DROID. You'll be happy. Trust me.

Ditto what he said...there are a few BB things you will miss, but for the most part the Bionic is so much further ahead than any BB you could buy at this point. Is it perfect, no, but what phone is? There is suppose to be a OTA update in November...not far off! Get it and enjoy a entirely different world.

Came from a Curve 8530, would never go back. The bionic will amaze you

Oh yea, I forgot to mention an app that helped smooth over the transition. Simple sound profile widget. It let's you create sound profiles and change them quickly like the sound menu on our old blackberries.

Well if u. Buy a device now. U have a certain time to test it before u can return it right? If u don't like it or a better fone comes out, u can switch it.

Amazon has the phone for 1 cent through the end of today!!!!

I have been waiting n the Nexus devise, but 1 cent is hard to pass up!!!

If you can get a loaner/crap phone why would you not wait for the Nexus or RAZR?

I probably should have held out for the razr but I had to sell my tbolt while it was still worth something. The only thing different id like about the bionic is a higher quality screen. Other than that...it does what I need for sure.

I actually have decided to do just that, gonna borrow my FIL's old crappy phone. I like the Bionic, but a couple thing are bugging me so going to return. Almost returned for Inc2 until hubbie talked to his dad. Definitely enjoying droid though, don't miss my crapberry!!

Blackberry. Yuck. Those seemed like business devices. Meant for email,text and simple browsing. Memory leak was a constant pisser. I spent more time trying to improve it than actually using it.
