Thoughts after using Bionic plus pictures

[trailblazen]

You can try Linpack or Smart Bench 2011 for other Benchmarks to compare to. Smart Bench is updated to take advantage of dual core being there, should be a good score.

Wouldn't mind seeing the Smart Bench test

Can you give us a measurement of the thickest portion of the phone?

 

[Joe the Insider]

That's my powerade lolol also, we got the lapdocks in and its pretty nice, but at its point I dunno how many will go for it except us geeks. I will run smartbench in a few and report back.

Im not to concerned about exact measurements myself, but can you comment on if the D3 is slimmer or thicker then the thickest part of the Bionic? Looks close in the previous side shot?

By the way.. on that LapDock I intend to get it - but I'm wanting to get one thing with absolute clarity:
Will Verizon require any sort of extra plans to have it? (i.e. Tethering plan ala AT&T?)

So far I have not seen any concrete answers on this.

I plan to buy mine from Costco and get that bundle and then head down to my VZW corporate store and snag that Dock. Been wanting to upgrade my notebook - if it were any older it would be a stone tablet!

Yeah I was curious about the lapdock and extra charges.

Uhmm.. Questions... Is that really a second speaker by the camera? Does it have pentile? andd... uhmm.... Your initial thoughts.

 

[kca2000]

Yeah I was curious about the lapdock and extra charges.

Is there a price on these docks yet? The dock itself? Or are prices the same they were with the Atrix?

 

[trailblazen]

recall reading it was like $299 somewhere really late last night but can't remember where I saw it.

 

[joepa09]

So how much off contract for this? I 590, but saw a Best Buy leak that had it at $700.

The lapdock or the phone? You can purchase the Atrix lapdock for $199 currently on Amazon. Brand new. Should be compatible.

WOW. Half the retail of the phone? Ill pass on that no matter what, if thats the end cost. Ill forward an extra 100 and just get a tablet or a low end Laptop.

can't be, the Atrix lapdock is made specifically for the Atrix because it has a 4" inch screen and a different shape than the Bionic.

 

[Joe the Insider]

The bionic is thinner than the d3 and also lighter. As for the docks, as far as I know you don't need to get any plans with the docks. Their pretty much sold as an accessory. As for pricing, I was told $299 but don't hold me to that yet.

one question, have you found any way to take screenshots on the Bionic?

Yeah, I wouldn't buy one of the Atrix ones. Odds are the dock portion is a bit different even if the screen and keyboard are the same. Just hold off until the Bionic specific one comes out.

I will try too, but you guys have to remember what im doing is kind of against policy, so im risking my job. Ill do my best and give you more info. I will be on later tonight after work to go in detail and somewhat of a review. Stay tuned.

Ill try to get more scores as well..

Oh...please dont lose your job over this phone.

MAKE SURE THERE IS NOTHING IN THE PHOTOS THAT CAN IDENTIFY YOU!!! Like ...who knows you drink red Powerade...hmmmm....lol Who was eating a Subway sandwich at the time you had the phone? Hmmmm....lol

I'm 1/2 joking....but I'm being serious also.

Don't risk more than you feel comfortable. You've given more than enough and we can be patient if we try really really hard.
