Verizon phone
« on: June 19, 2009, 08:37:51 PM »
Debating on what phone to get. My dad's friend owns a store so he said he'd hook me up with  a phone of my choice for pretty cheap.
Debating on:
Voyager
Alias 2
enV Touch

Is the Storm worth it?
Any other suggestions? Kind of want a QWERTY keyboard...

I like the LG phones, they all are pretty tough if you beat up your fun and all come with cameras and stuff like that for pretty fair prices. Voyager is nice acouple of my buddies had it and loved them :salute

The thing I have heard about the Voyager is probs with the touch screen...I've tried the touch on it and  it would be hard to get used to coming from an ipod touch. right now I have the original enV.  The enV touch seems nice but people say batt life is bad.

I have a Voyager and love it.  I find the touch screen a little too sensitive on mine even after calibrating, because it likes to unlock itself and call people.

Get a storm. Sweet phone once you get used to it. Or you could always go with a Dare.

Only thing I don't like about the Dare is that it's all touch screen and only has 1 screen.  I work a lot, and I need a phone that can flip open/closed and protect the screen.  With the Voyager I have that, a QWERTY keyboard, and the luxury of a touch screen whenever I wanna use it.

I think ym 2 decisions are between the Storm and Voyager anyway. Tough decision...the Voyager seems to be getting a little old...and the enV Touch almost seems like the upgrade. The Storm would be so weird for me coming off an ipod touch considering I'd have to press down and such...and the touch screen QWERTY could mess me up a bit...I've tried my friend's dare and it is pretty easy to text with...but the Dare (or Voyager) doesn't have the layered screen. Gah! Decisions decisions...

Check the clearance aisle. Cheap, and you can run them over a car and they won't break.

I go to wal mart, get about 10 screen protectors for $5 and cut them into shape of my screen. My dare has been dropped on brick, pavement, kicked and jabbed. There are some minor scratches around it. It is surprisingly durable. The screen has no scratches because of the screen protector. But I would get a screen protector for any touchscreen phone. The thing I love most about the Dare is it's headphone jack and music player. Don't have to buy some stupid converter to play music. It is a good mp3 player/cell phone with other neat features.

The BlackBerry Storm2 is coming out soon.  I personally have been VERY impressed with the Storm & I will most likely upgrade to the Storm2.

The storm (Storm2) is the way to go my friend.   :salute

It doesn't suck.  Do you hate the clickable (pushable) screen????  And why does a kid have a blackberry  :confused:

The rumors out before the Storm hit the shelves was that it wasn't fast enough compared to the iPhone.  They were so wrong.  It is supper fast.

Grr...I hate when someone says it sucks and another one says its good. Ratt, I can't wait 6 mos to upgrade to the Storm2...

Zoo...why do you say it sucks? do you say that just because you think it does? (thats most of the feedback I've been getting :/ )

Edut: really liking the enV touch...I'm watching a few reviews on it...prob might be able to get it for 25 or 50 bucks instead of 100...
