Smartphone Trouble

Samsung Fascinate

Motorola Droid X

HTC Droid Incredible

Well in the midst of today’s day and technology age I have needed to get a smartphone or none the less decided to. Before you think, "oooooo buy the IPhone it's the best smartphone," I’m not an AT&T customer and do not plan to switch. I will also not start the common argument on whether the iPhone is really the best smartphone out there. So, I, not being able to choose my service based on chains built by my parents I am on the most reliable network, Verizon Wireless. There are three smartphones on Verizon that stick out for me, the Droid Incredible, The Samsung Fascinate, and The Droid X. These are all great phones, but now is where personal preferences comes in. The reason these are the three that standout for me is because I am used to my iPod Touch typing which is a touch screen, which rules out any phone with a keyboard such as blackberries. Then i also realized I download and use a loooot of ram and memory which brings me to this, all three of these phones have a 1.0 GHZ Snapdragon or Hummingbird processor. This will provide easy access through my phone and not slow it down while using multiple applications. Now that I narrowed it down to these three I need to narrow it down to just one perfect for me phone. I think I might have ruled out the Droid x already based on how big it is. It isn’t convenient enough to have a very large screen, but it does have HDMI output while the other two don’t. Then I realize I don’t even have an HDTV so that solves that problem and knocks that phone out of the race. Now down to the Fascinate and the Incredible. The Fascinate after testing it has a very nice 5 megapixel camera with flash. Then when testing the Incredible I realize it has a superior 8 megapixel camera also with flash. That is a big dent in the Samsung phones case toward getting purchased by my parents’ hard earned money, but it is not down for the count. The Fascinate does have a very nice 4-inch 800 x 480 Super AMOLED display that isn’t too big but is convenient. The Incredible has a screen that is 3.7 inches. I think that might tie it up again. Another very important thing is how the screen is controlled. There are two ways by pressure of static electricity from your fingers but thankfully they both are controlled the better way by the static electricity in your fingers. So now we are still tied. Personally i prefer HTC to any other brand of phones because of the reliability. This might be the thing to kill the Fascinate. HTC has released many other phones that have been doing very well in the phone market while the Samsung Fascinate is one of the first of its kind trying to hit the market. I also think that the Fascinate has lost because the screen isn’t worth it even though big is nice I will not be using my phone for multimedia. Multimedia is reserved for my iPod Touch. Also according to the Verizon Wireless website the Fascinate does not have a QWERTY key board which is a very big deal for me and might make me make my decision. The last aspect of this decision is the price. I like to save money even if it is not my money, which means I will use Wirefly to get the cheapest deal. The Fascinate stands at $10 while the Incredible is a little more expensive $80, this doesn’t change my decision so I will go with the Incredible and order it through Wirefly. Hopefully I am fully satisfied and once I get it and figure out how to manipulate its system I will post on how to do many things that aren’t usually offered to the average person. I Man OUT.
