My SIMPLE Rezound Observations

OK, I do have a couple of very simple observations regarding using my Rezound compared to my Incredible.

The first major improvement for me is the touch screen. On my Incredible the screen seem to be rather "touchy". For example when scrolling thru my contacts looking for someone, I would often dial the wrong person by accident. I don't think it is going to be a problem on this phone.

Also along those same lines, I find this keyboard easier to type on, perhaps for the same reason as above.

I also like how when I get a text message, I don't have to unlock the phone to respond. It just wakes up, I can respond and that's that.

One think I don't like and I don't remember whether my Dinc did this, is that when in camera mode, if I get a text message, the message pops up on the screen. Kind of distracting when trying to take a picture. I have to look into if there is a way to stop that.

I have taken a few pictures, but being that my subjects are non-photogenic and I'm just generally a bad picture taker, I'm not posting them. I emailed them to my self and on the computer they were blurry. But again, I generally take bad pictures. There are lots of settings to play with and I haven't done any of that.

I'm sorry, I have not played with the GPS yet. I have been working on getting my home screens set up, my apps put back on and that kind of thing.

I also got about a full 24 hours out of a fully charged battery. But I am probably not a good judge of battery life. Fortunately, I am fairly lucky to be able to plug it in whenever I need to because I'm either at home, in my vehicle or at work.

I have not used my headphones yet. I have loaded my HP movies and watched part of one. The picture is great!

So far, I'm loving it! LOL I'm not very technical, so like I said, these are simple observations!

lol, have you told your subjects that they're not very photogenic? You can always take a picture of your dog. I think there was a request for that. :D
 
This is a picture of my lazy cat!

Generally, I guess my animals are all lazy....I turned the flash off so I didn't get the yellow eyes, but that just makes for an orangy picture. A photographer, I am not.

Disclaimer....please do NOT base Rezound camera quality on Caseykees' crappy picture taking ability.
 
Is there a way to turn off the zoom on web pages? When hitting a link, sometimes the page zooms in and out. I had the same problem on my Dinc and could never figure out if I could make it stop.

Do you think part of the reason you can type better may be because of the bigger keyboard?

Also that is good to know about the text messages. That was one of the main reasons i've ever used handcent.

Thanks for the info.

I don't know if it really seems that much bigger in portrait mode. To me the screen has a different feel to it.

I use handcent (I like being able to make the conversation bubbles colored! :))
