Upgrading from Thunderbolt

[Iceycold]

Hello.

I'm sorry I posted this here, I couldn't find another place to post it in, but I figured here's a nice place since you guys are usually speaking about phones better/worse than the thunderbolt. This has to do with verizon anyways too.

So I received news today that I was available for an upgrade I have the thunderbolt now and love it but figured I'd upgrade anyways. Right now, on Verizon what is the best phone ALL around at the moment? I've seen they have a huge arsenal now. Here's what I want:

-Same functionaltly/features as the Tbolt w/4G.
-Good Battery Life
-Fast phone, I know all android phones end up being slow after a while but which phone will hold up?

I don't want an iPhone For specific reasons, I can't stand not being able to have a background with all those icons in the way.

I'm also taking suggestions for other Phone companies, so I'm open to that as well.

I have a few hours to make this choice, so bear with me.

Thanks.

My honest opinion is to save your upgrade and not to upgrade now. AFAIC, there is no phone on VZW worth spending an upgrade on. As for carrier... well... just depends on your circumstances. I use VZW because I get "more coverage in more places".

BTW, I'm sitting on an available upgrade now too. So, I practice what I preach.

Is there a reason? I mean the phones on VZW look pretty tough now. And I've noticed with android phones is that today we have dual core and in 6 months we have phones with 4GB ram, so you really can't keep up with it.

Still open to suggestions.
