Jeramey Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Looks nice so far, I like the overall design of the phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve626 Posted October 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Well I got the phone yesterday, best phone I have used yet.. its fast as hell haven't had any slow downs.. the keyboard is fuckin amazing. My only real concern is tmobile coverage, coming from verizon but no problems as of now... needless to say I'm lovin this phone.

Jeramey Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 How's the battery life on it? Most android phones have shit for battery, so is this one any different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doug118 Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 be careful with the exposed ribbon for the screen. I know 3 people who work at tmobile and they have already seen 6 come back with ripped ribbons Quote 2001 Tahoe.

Team_DC-Derrick Posted October 14, 2010 Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 it depends on the OS, they changed the batt life going from 1.6 to 2.1 and 2.2.. with my 2.2 on droid x the batt lasts damn near 2 days with me playin on it lol.. you can also change the batt profile to battery saver or something else, or high performance. if you didnt know!

Steve626 Posted October 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2010 Battery life on the phone is one of the best on the market from what I hear, also I have been running some speed test while on tmobile's hspa+ network I have been getting 3.5 meg down to 5.5 meg download and a constant 1.5 upload which is pretty damn fast. It still blows me away how much technology has evovled I remember those damn brick phones.. now I have a damn pc in my pocket with a broadband connection, gotta love it.

Glad the X is goin good lol. My incredible is annoying the hell out of me, the phone itself gets extremely hot from what I'm assuming is the battery overheating. It seems to only be doing it when I go to work, and under little-no use, and boy does the battery drain superrrr quick! Task-killer says nothings open/running in the background and I probably get a total of maybeeeeeee 6 hours TOTAL on a good day when I work with little to no use. Running 2.2 now, wasn't sure if it was my phone with shit battery life or most-all android phones so glad to hear the G2 and the X is running well. Might have something to look forward too in 2012 lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve626 Posted October 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 Just an update, I have had the G2 for a couple of weeks now and unfortunatly I have to send it back tmobile coverage fuckin blows the phone is amazing but what good is it if I only get 2G speeds, you would think in los angeles one of the biggest cities in the nation id atleast get 3g coverage. Good riddance tmobile back to verizon.
