I received my Bionic on Friday and I am wondering if I should considering returning it and waiting for the RAZR. I'm not a big fan of Samsung, so I don't really want the Galaxy Nexus.
My experience so far with the Bionic has been pretty good. Though the signal could be better (a lot better), and the battery life I have tested with it so far has me questioning the Bionic too. I was able to take it from 100% to 0% in just over 2 hours of battery draining testing. The Thunderbolt held on until over 3 hours. This doesn't depict real life usage, however, I charged my phone to 100% last night, then took it off the charge and went to bed. I woke up with only 5% battery left (That's no 8 days as spec says).
From the RAZR specs, its suppose to last roughly 20% longer (And you have Smart Actions). Now I am not usually one to buy an extended battery, but having the option to do so is a nice feature to have with the Bionic. However, I am an ex-thunderbolt user and I never bought the extended battery or and extra battery (Though I admit, if the Thunderbolt's extended battery didn't turn into the hunchback, I would have bought one). There were only a few times where I had to stop using my Thunderbolt because it died or was about to die on me.
So here I am, 14 days to return. Stick with Bionic and maybe get an extended battery if I find that I need one. Or I can return the Bionic and get the RAZR, and hope that it doesn't need an extended battery.
What are your thoughts?
