End of my 14 day days...

SecondShot

Android Enthusiast
Well, tomorrow's the day. It's been 14 days with the TB. I have spent a lot of time on the boards looking at all the great advice, trials, tribulations of you guys. My final conclusion...its a keeper. I love my TB.

I know there are a lot of people that had issues. I have not. Some of the known issues like low video mic volume just isn't enough to make me turn the thing back in. Most all of the things it was designed to do, it does very well.

My battery tests (after some minor tweaks) illustrated 11-12 hour battery life with my 3g only and 4g. Today I was really surprised. The last two days I decided not to test, but to just use the phone like I normally would with one exception, no mid-day charging. The battery had very similar results regardless of 3g vs 4g. It did fine and actually better than my BB S2.

Coming from the BB S2, the UI is just a pleasure to use.

Loaded up some cool apps to help with the basic annoyances, and overall I am very pleasantly surprised about the android platform.

I couldn't have managed it without all the great advice and vigorous debates on this board. Sometimes it seems overly emotional, but that means you guys care. Thanks very much and when I get the nerve to "root", I know you all will be there to help me repair the damage I create. ;)
 
Good for you, I sailed passed my 14 days and didn't think twice. I don't know how I could be happier with it, I love it.
 
My 14 days came and left last week and I couldn't be happier with this phone. I've got the wifi working just fine now (wifi would not connect after being idle overnight), 3G is working great here too (no 4G here). It's just a great phone overall....and the kickstand is awesome!!
 
I had an Atrix and turned that in before my trial period was over. Got the Tbolt and know for sure that it is the right phone. Couldn't ask for anything better. Now if I could just see how effective the new 1700 batteries are . . .that would make it the perfect phone.
 
Sorry to say that I returned mine on the 15th day. Had too many issues, and with it being the second one I tried I wasn't willing to risk going past the 15 days and being stuck with another lemon.

The device in general did everything I asked it to do. The problem was that is also did things that I didn't want it to do.

Glad you all have had a better experience than me.
 
Love mine also, especially now that there is a 3G/4G toggle. Love that thing! Saves my battery's arse!

I had high expectations for the phone. They have all been met and then some.
