Hi All,
I am new to this forum and the world of Android. I am an iOS user on T-Mobile. I am sick and tired of looking at the "E" symbol on my unlocked/jailbroken iPhone 3G.
That being said, I am ready for an Android! Heck yea!
Now the big question "What is the best recommended Android Phone for me?"
Don't worry, I will put down the criteria in clear words:
1. Phone - We can never forget that any phone (smart or super) is after all a phone. So, I need clarity of voice (both ways), nice speakerphone, nice earpiece, no dropped calls, no freezing in the middle of a conversation, no over heating while on a call or texting, easy to type keyboard, pretty good talktime and simple to manage contacts and call history.
2. Speed - I am coming from "E". So 3G is welcome. 4G is out of the world.
3. Battery - My iPhone runs for one full (12 hours) day (30-40 emails, 20-30 webpages, 10-20 texts, 50+ calls). Anything that can beat this will be a winner because I am pretty religious about re-charging my phone. I have chargers everywhere (office, car, home, laptop bag).
Please help me with this decision. It's also worth mentioning that in search of this dream phone I went to VZW and bought myself a Thunderbird. It was a shocker!
That damn thing is huge, sucks battery like hell, and not that user-friendly (i may be biased here. but most iOS users new to Android will agree with me on this). So, I returned it by paying the $35 restocking fee
and have committed to T-Mobile for the next 2 years. So, any recommendations have to be keeping this in mind - T-Mobile android phone or fully T-Mobile compatible android phone only.
Thanks in advance.
Sid
