get the incredible now and then upgrade with the 2ghz motorola droid coming at the end of the year. the ceo already said they'll be having a 2ghz phone with everything technologically possible in it. i'm buying and incredible then just in time for my actual contract renewal, i'll be able to get that new fast droid.
Were you talking to me or the OP? I've had my Droid for five months now and I'm eligible to upgrade in January so the new 2GHz Droid will be out by then. I'll definitely look into it if I decide to upgrade then.
How can you upgrade every 12 months if you have a 2 years contract? Is there an additional fee to do so?
There is an additional fee but sometimes reps can waive it. The fee is $18.
Motorola makes better high end droids? Huh? they made one good droid... HTC has now made the Incredible and the Evo4G. The marketing on the MotoDroid was insane compared to what I saw for the Incredible and the Inc is still holding its own. Being out for almost two months and still being requested all the time. If you consider crappy keyboards and even worse typing a feature of a "high end droid" then I guess you are right.
You're right. The only good Motorola Android phone out right now is the Droid. It was wrong of me to base that off the Droid X and Droid 2 which aren't out yet. What I meant is that Motorola uses better material while making their phones more durable and they put processors in their phones that are more powerful than Snapdragons (Arm Cortex & OMAP).
Wonder if he means the make of the device itself? I have to be honest, my first MotoDroid was built amazing. Thing felt like a brick but it gave me a sense of peace if it dropped out of my pocket where with my Inc. I hold onto dear life when I have that thing because it just feels cheesy as all hell. I love the device and what it can do but the make is terrible.
Yup. I have the Moto Droid and it's built like a tank. The metal build and heft makes it feel high quality in comparison to other phones.
To get subsidized pricing its every 10 months on a 1 year contract.
Can you refer me to where it says you can upgrade with subsidized pricing every year on anything other than a 1 year contract?
I have until July 1 to return my Inc. If the X is announced on June 23 and it's available for pre-order that day, I may just return the Inc and get a cheap phone to tide me over.
Yeah but one year pricing is much more expensive than two year. It's $70 more to get a phone at one year pricing than two year pricing. This information is on their website and you can even call CS for reassurance.
Not positive but I believe the 1 Year Upgrade price is considerably higher than the standard 2 year (not New Every 2 for primary account holders which is even less) up grade. If you look at the VZW website it will tell you the price difference between a 1 year and 2 year contract. The upgrades are based on these prices. I did get a 1 year upgrade on a 2 year contract several years ago but it was about $75 more on that phone then it would have been if I had waited the full 2 years.
Yup. When I bought my Droid, I was initially going for the one year pricing but it was $70 more than the standard two year price. The rep there also let me know that I could upgrade every 12 months for a fee of $18. I went with it because I never plan on leaving Verizon anyway. No point in going on a one year pricing when you're not leaving the carrier and you can upgrade for less every 12 months.
