Tech. site reviews

[robdec17]

When should we start seeing some tech site reviews? Do you think we will see some before Thursday?

Most new products already have reviews written up from the major tech sites but don't get posted till the official announcements. I guess in this case not even the major tech sites got their hand on the final Thunderbolt...

I'm curious as well...I really want to see some "real life" reviews of battery.

Battery is my #1 concern. Would it be too much to ask for for HTC to correct the poor battery life that we all had on the DInc as well as the EVO? They have been out nearly a year and both had less than desireable battery life. One would think that HTC heard the grumbling from the masses and did something about it on this, their latest and greatest phone!

Embargo's will be lifted wed... not many sites have review units but enough to give u plenty of reading..

It'll be interesting reading Engadget's reviews, now that all the big names are gone. I'm betting Christ Ziegler will be doing this one.

Yeah, me too. Those three were among the best assets of Engagget.

Im not sure when ours will be up but when it is, i'll post a link. In case your like me and like to view different reviews even after you have the phone.

Hmmm....it's Wednesday...not seeing reviews yet. The Verizon iPhone reviews popped up all over the place at midnight the day the embargo lifted....

Please post review links here if you have 'em.

Still nothing. Not even an unboxing. Makes me wonder if anyone actually got review units..

 

[RodoBabbins]

Looking for any new reviews, only ones out there are from last month or older.

One poster said he was going to review one, give him some time

Will VZW stores have the extended battery for sale tomorrow as well?

 

[phantomog]

I hope this isn't like the really bad movies that don't allow reviewer screenings before release...

 

[SpaceHippie]

Not many people have review units. Especially since we didn't even know for sure it was coming tommorrow until a few days ago.

Well, that doesn't bode well.
Movie studios hold off reviews until after a release when they've got a turkey.
Hoping that there isn't a Battery-gate type of scandal to tarnish a great looking product...

It looks like the 2750mAH Extended Battery gets released April 7th.
(Wow, that's quite a bit higher than the stock 1400mAH battery!)

I ran across this review today.

I have been wondering that myself and the best answer I got was THIS ARTICLE.

I just watched an 8 minute review of TB on wirefly. It think it was done last night or today because it has their order details currently, i.e. being able to purchase from tonight...

Opps, take that back, date says feb 8, they just re-edited it is all.

The lack of reviews and stuff is odd to me
