Why I think Happiness is owning a ThunderBolt.
-Still cutting edge technology. Gotta love that.
-Almost 4 months since release and still the best phone on VZW. Even after two other competitors hit the street. Most new high-tech phones are obsolete in 30 days And I don't even see a VZW phone expected to be released this year that I would rather have.
-In less than 4 months HTC/VZW has already released two bug-fix/updates to the original software and another big one with feature upgrades and an OS upgrade is due in the next few weeks. Can't beat that for update support.
-The ThunderBolt does everything I want it to do and does it well. Admittedly, the recent updates contributed directly to that, but hey, it's a top notch phone right now. With no real competition on VZW as far as I'm concerned.
-I'm sitting here right now using my UNLIMITED MOBILE HOTSPOT to write this with a fantastic 4G/LTE connection. Sure glad I got the "first 4G phone" from VZW and was able to lock in not only unlimited phone data but also unlimited MHS/MBBC data. Wow! Even better than I had hoped for.
-Answering a call and talking to a client while I am still using the MHS to research on the web AS WE CONTINUE SPEAKING! Apple who?
-I bought the extended battery and basically I never even think about the battery. I just use the phone and whenever it's convenient I charge it. How many phones don't even give you the OPTION of fitting a huge 2750mAh extended battery. Way to go HTC!
-Using the built-in standard HTC Sense Interface/non-rooted I am happy with the function and performance of my email, web browsing, FLASH PERFORMANCE WITHIN WEB PAGES, Text messages, love the Notification bar and recent programs for fast task switching, 7 home screens (holy cow), the People app, Syncing of Contacts to the Google Cloud and FAST AS CAN BE PERFORMANCE of the phone in almost every function.
-Did I mention CRAZY FAST 4G/LTE DATA DOWNLOADS! SHEESH!
Yes - this is a phone I am going to be happy with a long time. Compare this to the last smartphone I bought on the 1st day it was available a couple of years ago, it was virtually forgotten and outdated inside of 60 days. Amazing.
Yes, Happiness is owning a ThunderBolt!
