I have been an Iphone user (Jailbroken and customized all the way) since earlier versions.
I have tried to switch to Android platform with Evo and Samsung Captivate and due to lack of 2.2 at the time and all kinds of issues (GPS, download speeds etc.) havent done it.
What are your thoughts? Anyone X iphone 4 users out there? How does the screen compare? Coming from Retina is tough with any other phone, even Amoled?
Thanks for feedback. I am about to pull the trigger on a new Streak.
I have been using iphone 3g since almost 2 years and just also bought Streak 5 and this is my 3rd day on it. I love streak over iphone 4, as buying iphone 4 is complete waste of money, instead go for 3gs. I thought of buying iphone 4, but i stopped because i must have same apps, same OS and GUI in iphone 4 as 3g.
I came from a BB Curve and never had a Fruit product, never understood the fascination for them either, tiny little screen, etc. I had been waiting for the Streak since last March, but the release was so mess up, lack of support from At&t and grossly overpriced, made it out of my reach.
In Nov. of last year, I converted to a Sony X10 with a 4" screen (my Blackberry was 2.5 years old but still functional). I couldn't handle the small screen and couldn't even consider using something smaller (Iphone).
Then Best Buys put the Streak on sale for $99 and I converted 2 days before Xmas. At first the experience was very similar to the X10 with 1.6 but then the device finally got updated included Swype and it has been great ever since.
The only App I can't find yet is NetFlex, otherwise I am more than happy with the device, almost wish it was bigger
Hi Nb Mitch,
I feel you on the NetFlix - if they finally get that added I think I might loose my mind with excitement. I've been enjoying this phone so much - it is by far the best I've ever owned. Let me know if you hear anything about Netflix please
I am using iphone 3g since 2 years and noq I bought streak it has froyo 2.2
i have both phones but I must say streak simply takes the cake in everything compares to iphone.
After fiddling around for a couple days and several hours at Best Buy with the iPhone4 & Dell Streak 5, I got the Dell. I had these phone prior and the Streak smokes them all easily.
I also had 3GS and iP4, tried iPad and Galaxy Tab in between and now I'm totally satisfied with my Dell Streak. With Froyo, things just work, and the Flash especially
I had all the iphone models except the 3gs. Jailbroke all of them. I sold my iphone 4 on ebay and have no regrets. Besides a better overall user experience, there is the Cool factor.
