What is your Thunderbolt replacing?

[dajogejr]

8530 Curve. I have to say...I absoultely love the simplicity and rock solid stability and battery life from all my previous blackberry phones.

But...

Faster over all, 4G (In Detroit 2011), skype, data and voice simultaneously, WAY better web browsing speed and page displaying, 40GB of storage, superior camera WITH Dual flash (no flash on 8530s), HD Video Recording...list goes on and on.

My BB is a rock....but there are too many useful things I can do on this TB my BB can't do. Do you know how many times I tried to find something/open a link only to find the browser couldn't display it?

Oh, and a real app store....not the crap BB app store.

I'm actually very excited for this phone, I hope it pans out for my hopes.

This is the reason I'm leaving BlackBerry. I don't have a computer (since 2000) and I do everything on my phone. It's so annoying to get links in my (truncated) email on my BlackBerry and not be able to open them on the browser.

For example I got an email from Sirius that I wanted to check out. The BlackBerry browser just stalled and loaded the page incompletely.

It's fine for mobile sites. But I'll be glad when I don't have to go to the library to access sites like FPL, Dish etc to pay bills etc.

Well, it wasn't mobile enough. You'd be surprised at how much you can get done on a phone!

It was going to replace my OG Droid, but that broke on me 3 weeks ago, so now it will be replacing a Palm Pre Plus.

LG Env3 :-[

The embarrassed robot face is cute.

Storm 2

C-ya later BB you served your job well but I have my eye on another cutie :-*

Droid X! Not much of an upgrade spec wise, but i'd rather have an open device and lte.

 

[JM4G1C]

Replacing my Tour 9630, got it the first day it came out and it's been good to me ever since! A bittersweet replacement so to speak

 

[FutureTBoltOwner]

Def glad when i get this, as it will be replacing my env touch, which isn't so much a bad phone but plagued with software issues, and touchscreen issues on my end. The phone was flawless for the first 3 to 4 months, but after that it just continually got worse and worse

 

[thebizz]

Droid 2 need a bigger screen and open phone im tired of this crap kernel and reboots

Same with me. Love my X but miss HTC. (had an incredible fo 29 days and switched to the X) F Moto.

Huawei Ascend. I've flirted with android now I want the full experience with the best hardware.

 

[evilmunkeh]

BlackBerry Tour 9630. Pre-ordered my TB today and couldn't be more excited!

 

[hwl3x]

Had a BBstorm, but could not stand it! Switched to an old motorola flip phone.. Preordered my Tblot today as well!

 

[Harlemknight]

Storm 2!!! And I can't wait.

 

[WhitePhone]

Leaving the EVO. As crazy as it sounds that I would dump a device that is nearly equal to the one I am getting, I can't take WiMAX anymore and can't wait for LTE. I thought with the EVO I got a 4G phone and I planned on using 4G constantly. Nope, I got a 3G phone that under the 4G panel says nothing but "scanning" most of the time. Nice crappy high frequency, Sprint. 700 MHz FTW!

 

[quikric]

I'll be replacing my DX, trying to talk my wife into getting the TBolt to replace her BlackBerry Storm2.
Don't even get me started on the Storm 2, it was my first and last BB.
Now I'm in love with the android os!

Wow. Is it really that bad?
