Master Giraffe, Dolfan Cole, CK, etc.
Do you guys have opinions as to expected phone function from Moto vs. Samsung on these two phones? I am talking speaker phone, reception and call quality and other functions of the "phone" portion of these devices.
Does your experience with these companies and their build quality lead you to believe they will be equal or does one company stand out in this area from past devices?
Speaker phone is important to me.
Thanks
It's funny how so many of us get wrapped up in all that these smartphones do nowadays. But, when it all comes down to it, it's still supposed to be a phone. And if it doesn't do that well, then it's no more than the 'ol pocket pc.
To answer your question though ... personally, I do not have any first hand experience with either Motorola or Samsung smartphones. So, I really can't provide the first hand feedback. I have read though that Motorola seems to do a better job in this area. This is based mostly on user's experiences that I've read on blogs, forums, etc. Keep in mind though that feedback that you see from these types of sources are typically bad (pissed off users are more likely to say something than satisfied users). From a theoretical point of view, I'd probably lean that way as well since Motorola does use multiple microphones to help cancel out any background noise during calls.
My wife does have a Fascinate. I haven't used it to make or receive any calls myself. But, she hasn't complained about it, nor have I had a hard time talking with her when she's using it.
This really doesn't provide a whole lot of useful information other than probably saying that while Motorola may be better in this area, it's probably only slightly and that difference may not be a game changer one way or the other for you.
