and my secondary phone would still the same... P990i

Technically I'm coming from an Inspire, but I've only had that a week. Before that it was an iP4, Xperia x10, N1 and a Captivate (which I still have) among others.

Motorola Backflip, then a HTC Aria.

Coming from Cyanogens N1, and an Inspire...still deciding which one to keep the Atrix or Inspire...

Captivate at the moment, sig's got all the deets (goddamn sportsdome...)

Nexus one and Dell streak. Sold the N1 a month or so ago, been using the Streak as my main.
With DJ Steves froyo on the Streak, its an amazing device. However, not super convenient as the only device I own. Getting the Atrix to be cover the spectrum.

coming from the streak which i had for two months, and before that i had the captivate since launch.

Haha look at my signature.

Dell Streak and x10a

The 5 inch screen is a bit much to carry on a steady basis, specially rocking an otter box defender on top of that.

Exactly. I like the Streak for browsing, but it was just huge to carry around especially in shorts. I also found it too large to use as a phone and didn't like texting even with Swype installed.
After using the Streak, the N1, Surround, X10, Captivate and Inspire I find the 4" screen to be perfect.

I'm coming from 4 iPhones, a Nexus One, Samsung Focus, an Evo, and a Razr! Had every iPhone the last few years and honestly I missed a lot about my N1, so hopefully this can compare to that. I had the N1 when it was 2.1 and only leaked 2.2, so most of the new features will be welcome.

I just bought an Atrix, upgrading from a Sony Ericsson w810i. Do I get a cookie for biggest upgrade?

Evo smokes nexus

Boy the nexus looks like a pale terd compared to the evo. Sucks for you guys. You know, owning a pale, outdated terd.
............the ****?
mod close/lock/delete?
Troll much? Evo isn't too special yet. Rooted my friends last night and honestly out the box it runs slower than a rooted myTouch running senseUI.
You love it son

You ain't beating ****. You want to get violent over a phone,come get some.
funny cause i just came from the sprint store 15 minutes ago, playing with the evo, and it was a shame the evo was so slow and laggy. i felt actually bad. the nexus was so buttery smooth in comparison. i'm sure removing sense UI would fix it right up though. get vanilla android on that sucka!
All I have to say is, you're on Sprint.
Nexus wins.
i hope this thread stays open just for entertainment purposes
Don't be too hard on the poor guy! After all, not everyone can afford a Nexus One. The Evo is a very nice phone, but feels too big in the hand compared to the N1. The color saturation of the N1's screen and noise canceling mic is enough to keep me a happy camper!
BTW, the rodriguezstyle Froyo ROMs absolutley scream - they are so fast and smooth!

LOL so you got another (crappier) front facing camera for a video service that costs extra, an 8 MP camera in the rear, a s**tier screen which is bigger but dull and glossy as hell, and...oh yeah...otherwise identical hardware.
HAVE FUN WAITING FOR YOUR PRECIOUS SENSE UI FIRMWARE UPDATES...FOREVER. You'll be on 2.1 firmware till the end of time, while I run froyo and laugh at you...because I wont have to buy a new phone to get a software update. Enjoy. noob.
Your smoke is a thick cloud of cr#p!
Mod: close this.

The Nexus one is in 4th place now
Desire HD
Desire
Evo
Nexus
woooooooooo!
5th place now with the Leo competing...
Leo now leading by 6%!
Nexus is 5th
Weird that they allowed the HTC Leo into the 2010 line-up since it was released in 2009, and won the 2009 poll too.
Somebody's cheating :/ leo was at around 150 votes yesterday and now 850... FISHEE...
I love my N1, but I still voted for the Evo simply because Google failed to accomplish what they set out to do with the Nexus, while the Evo was a huge success.
just voted N1
Why the hell is the Windows Mobile 6.5 Leo/HD2 winning by 600 votes? WTF!? That phone was released in 2009 and runs a dinosaur OS.
I definitely voted for the one, the only, the iconic, classic Nexus ONE!! I don't understand how the Leo got included in the poll either.

The Leo should not be there! Get out the vote Nexus owners.
I've never even heard of the Leo. WTF?
The leo is the HD2 lol

I've just voted... for the HTC Desire. I just think it's the best all round phone HTC has produced. Relatively inexpensive - for a long time, cheaper than the N1 by quite a margin in the UK. I much prefer the hardware buttons on it and would rather have those than the flashing trackball; personally the soft buttons of the nexus one are one of the worst things about it - unresponsive and frustrating. Also, plain vanilla android is not for me - out of the box, it looks bland, and has a very beta feel about it, IMO the Sense UI on the Desire really gives that phone a kick up the arse and is the best front end on any phone outside the iphone IMO (quite possibly better in many ways). OK, I know you can get apps which replace the built in ones and flash themes and ROMs which change the appearance, but many seem to add their own foibles and bugs, and I end up going back to stock.
I've never had the pleasure of the likes of the Evo... we do have the Desire HD over here, but the screen is a bit of a disappointment IMO - big yes, but slightly washed out looking and the battery life is appalling.
For me, the Desire hit a sweet spot - powerful, a pleasure to use, and relatively affordable, and still doesn't look too shabby now thats its almost a year old. Of course, neither does the N1, but for me, the hardware buttons and better UI push it out into the lead. Horses for courses, of course.

Let's see if Dell will surprise us all with similar spec on the new streak .. LOL
Two words: Battery Life
The deal-maker for me will be battery life. Some guy on the ATT forums says he's getting about 5-6 hours of battery life from his Samsung Infuse and that's a deal-breaker for me. Hopefully the Pantech engineers will surprise us with something that can last the day w/o plugging it in....
Hopefully it'll be available outside of Korea, as well, otherwise a lot of us are gonna have to get down there somehow. And with unsubsidized pricing it'll probably cost a pretty little penny.
Yea man sweet looking phone be good to have that on the north american side of the pond, be better if dell beat those specs though a qhd screen quad core 1.2ghz 16g internal with 32g expansion betterusic player with a bloody good equalizer an 5.1 dolby etc, then again asus has a thing going on, no specs or good pics of it just snap shoots of ramdom parts of the device with a slogan breaking the rules pad or phone be anonnced at the end of the month if it beats the streak im moving on to the dark side

periods are for girls (pun!), any true man doesnt use them.
On Topic, I'm really hoping the asus thing is a 5" phone and not an atrix-like device like some are speculating. I really like asus' products and a 5" phone from them would be perfection.
will this have US compatible bands? or we will have to wait for US version.

WOW really a 5.3 inch screen with Super AMOLED resolution of 1280x800!!! Wonder if it will come to Sprint (hope so)

I liked the idea of the streak but my wife made fun of it saying it looked like you had a book on your ear.
I would still like a 5" phone...but with LTE and HSPA this is prolly a Verizon device, right guys?

Imagine though. You just use it with a bluetooth headset. Its big enough to really browse the web and do more data oriented things.
Pair it with a fold up keyboard and think of all you could do. It can be both the tablet and the phone. Get the best of everything to fit in your pocket.
I wouldn't want a 10" tablet anyway because its to big to really use with one hand.
Hope you carry around solar panels to power that thing..

Why would anyone prefer a 4" over 5" phone? That just views my mind... Think outside the box. A 5" phone wouldn't have to be any bigger than the epic. There a ton of wasted space on the epic fire the screen size.

The new Samsung Galaxy S II will have the 4.52 so we are getting closer to the 5" mark. Just hate that we don't get updates really Samsung where is Gingerbread??

The 2 most controversial "big" phones together at last!

They are nearly identical in size, but the Nexus is way lighter.

WOW! :laugh: a dell streak 5! aka my first android device... those were the days. I miss em.
Well, not really. 1.6 was pitiful on the streak, and i couldn't even play the original angry birds without some serious lag. That is, until the 2.1 update finally came out eons later...
Can't wait to get my Nexus 6.
LOL that Dell Streak brings back memories. I had one when everyone thought huge phones were an oddity. I lost mine for a couple of days and found it in my backyard in the mud after a couple inches of snow melted. The only thing it had on it was a silicone jacket. I pulled the battery and dried it out in uncooked rice for a couple of days then booted it up and it ran fine up to the day I sold it about a year later. Water damage indicators weren't even tripped. Crazy, you can't make this stuff up. Absolutely true.
man, the Streak was such a mess, it taught me so much about android, and patience..... this was my third one, and as you can see, the glass cracked on this one too...... it was fun, and the xda forums were crazy........ what I thought was crazy, was seriously when I put the streak over the Nexus 6 I couldn't take a pic that showed a difference, they are soooo close, but the streak was just a 5 " screen...... but everyone thought it was crazy
wow. Dell Streak 5. my first android phone too!

yep, I moved from an Iphone 3 to the Dell Streak, and Dev was a mess, but it was fun, and Dell was really good about "warranty" cause this was my 4th one, 2 I bricked, and the other the glass broke, I would just call dell and they would send another and not ever ask me to send the old one back......
Funny, I thought that Dell was so huge back then!
reminds me of this article from way back then...
http://www.cnn.com/2010/TECH/mobile/07/29/5.inch.dell.streak/
So big, in fact, that some won't fit in jeans pockets anymore.
The Dell Streak, which is set to be released in the U.S. later this summer, is the biggest of the big-daddy phones so far, with a 5-inch screen. The screen of the iPhone 4, by comparison, measures only 3.5 inches diagonally.
When held up to a person's ear, the Dell phone looks like a book.
The Streak's mondo screen has become the focus of much debate on the internet, with tech bloggers arguing about what kinds of pants you'd have to wear to carry it around in your pocket; how big your hands have to be to hold it; whether or not people will stare at you when you're using it; and, perhaps most significantly, what exactly constitutes a phone these days.
