New Verizon Phones??

lcrain · 08-30-2010, 03:54 PM

Just wondering if anyone had any info. on upcoming Verizon phones. I currently have a Blackberry Curve, and I have really liked it. I am tempted to wait and see if verizon gets the iphone soon, but my contract has been up for a while and I am getting anxious for a new phone. I like the new blackberry bold for verizon and don't know if I really need the iphone, but so many of my friends have the iphone and it is pretty cool. Whats the latest on verizon getting the iphone? Also are there any new blackberrys scheduled to come out for verizon in the next couple months? If anyone has any insight/info available it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Also, I don't want to switch to AT&T because of the service problems so many have experienced. I spend some time in Montana during the winter/summers and when I go with friends using AT&T they never have any service so that is out of the question.

here at vtech att doesnt get good reception at all. I just ordered a droid 2 from amazon for 100 after rebates. it came out a couple weeks ago and is receiving great reviews.

more droid phones coming out every couple of months - and the current RUMOR is verizon getting the iphone in january.....though I heavily stress the word rumor.

+1. I got the Droid X the week it came out and couldn't be happier with it. I'd recommend it to anyone.

I'm on a BlackBerry myself and looking to upgrade to a Droid X or Incredible over the next couple of weeks - anyone have input on the difference between the two? I know the Incredible got the 2.2 update just now, X is still on waiting list...

It's proprietary.

Engadget/Gizmodo/etc. are good at getting leaks.

I have the incredible and love it. for what its worth, I came from a blackberry storm so i think those tiny old nokias would have been better than that piece of shit storm.

I'm waiting for verizon to get the equivalent of the BB Torch with the new BB6 operating system.

I've had the original Droid since the day it was released and it's been a great phone. If you're a keyboard guy I would recommend the Droid2.

Quick6EF · 08-31-2010, 08:00 PM

Get droid X!!

I went from BBerry Tour to it and I love it.

woner · 09-01-2010, 12:42 AM

I second the android phones. I have an original droid and love it. My brother has the droid x. If you need a keyboard get the droid2, but IMO the screen/ HD video on the droid x makes it a superior phone. Go to the Verizon store and see what fits you best.

Verizon are coming with a lot of new devices...and I'll suggest you one that I think is a good one - HTC Incredible HD. This phone has excellent hardware - 4.3-inch touch screen packed in aluminum body and features a 1GHz 8255 Snapdragon processor, 8MP camera with dual-LED flash.

All that is still preliminary, but if you are interested can check out the phone or some other Upcoming Verizon Phones

wait for the droid Pro which is coming out in November its aimed towards BB users its pretty cool looking and is the only reason why i didn't jump ship to BB yet. There's youtube videos on it check it out.

ragingclue · 10-28-2010, 10:13 AM

Doesn't Verizon have an SGS phone?

CollinsE90 · 10-28-2010, 12:02 PM

rumors state the Iphone by next summer, believe it if you want, i have a hunch it will happen

Droid releases a new phone every couple months, great phones

they just released the new Curve 3G if you want to stay with the curve
