Looking for a replacement for my HTC G2. Currently has an Otterbox case with CM7 Nightly installed and overclocked to 1.516Ghz...it's not bad on battery life even with that (mainly since I don't use my phone that much), but I'd love something:
-Thinner (don't need keyboard)
-Faster (or as fast) without overclocking/battery loss - not for gaming or videos or whatever, but for simple responsiveness and whatnot
-Bigger screen
I'm currently on Simple Mobile, but with T-Mobile's new value plans, there's one that's $10 cheaper with everything I need. Another company (such as Sprint or Verizon) isn't an option simply because I don't want to pay more than $60 a month for a phone (500 minutes, unlimited messaging, and 2GB a month of data is enough for me).
Anyway, stuff I don't care about:
-Camera quality, since I have a nice PaS camera and rarely use my phone for that reason
-Some phones having MHL, I'll barely use HDMI as it is
-Higher resolution screen, I can just lower the screen density and be set
-Sense/TouchWiz/etc., I highly prefer vanilla/CM7 Android
-Super light/thin/etc. - anything thinner/lighter than my G2 with case is fine by me
-Video codec support and whatnot - I hear Tegra can't display some videos unlike other CPU's, but I don't want much video (especially high-res stuff) so don't care too much
-3D - as much as I'd like it, my only option with T-Mobile would be one version of the Optimus 3D that would set me back about $550
That being said...any phone other than the G2x that I should consider (and why)? Also, any place I can get the phone cheaper than T-Mobile? Amazon Wireless sometimes has good deals on phones, but it doesn't even show the G2x as an option.
