What's the current "flagship" AT&T Android phone?

[SunnyD]

I had a captivate and thought the same thing, no more samsung, but after comparing the sensation/evo3d/optimus3d and sgs2 the sgs2 stood out on top. It has the quickest browser, thinnest design, 2mp front facing camera and the nicest screen out there.



Its ext4 now.

The "thin design" also concerns me. I'm rather worried about how sturdy it will be. My phone lives in my pants pocket most of the day and constantly getting leaned up against stuff.

That is the beauty of thin. If you don't like how sturdy it is, you can put a hard case on it day one and still be as thin as your average HTC phone.

Anything that's not made by Samsung. (Sorry, 2 current galaxy S series phones have left a very sour taste in my mouth)




Never said I didn't like the Atrix. I'd just like it in a larger form factor, that's all.

Ah. I figured it must be an anti-Samsung thing. I can get that, but I love Samsung products--my plasma, old 191T + LCD, shitty T-Mobile Samsung phone (still not horrible for a dumb phone!)...

I've always liked their stuff.

I'm with you on that one. It's why I have a myTouch 4G Slide.

I was considering that, as well, as it would be easy for me to stick with T-Mobile (I still want an unlocked international SGS2).

DO you have any complaints? does it feel gimped? I much prefer the physical keyboards on phones.

People said the Epic "felt cheap" but it is rather sturdy and it has a keyboard slide to deal with. I have dropped mine multiple times no case and it has held up wonderfully. If anything being light helps.

I have the HTC Espresso (mytouch 3g slide) and found it to be a decent build during the time I used it as a main. It's yesteryear's tech, just July from last year and has been pretty much outdated now. Hope this doesn't fall same for the mt4gs, but it probably will next year.

Was reading engadget's review of the mt4gs, pretty positive overall and the best thing it's known for is the camera. It's one of the cream of the crop. Other than that, and being a slider, generic HTC 2011 lineup with similar hardware, etc, etc.

Because I don't give a rats ass about Apple.

I have not read all your posts: Have you tried an iPhone?

My only real complaints are the sunlight readability of the screen at low brightness, and the low speaker and 3.5mm headphone jack volumes (for music, game or video audio).

Auto brightness helps a lot and voodoo control for 3.5mm volumes.

Voodoo control doesn't exist for the 4G Slide, and supercurio has said he's not going to work on this generation of dual-core HTC devices.

That is certainly an understandable position, my oldest child has a Galaxy S and will never own another Samsung phone. The Infuse is Samsung btw.

That's understandable, what phone are you coming from/what size are you looking for?

Don't think I've ever heard of someone wanting a bigger Atrix but ok.

The Atrix is a fairly small phone, it's about the same size as the iP4 just with a much larger screen although it lacks the acre and a half of bezel Apple includes.

Are you expecting it will snap in half just because its thin?

I really like my HTC Inspire 4G. Battery life leaves a bit to be desired, however.
