NOTE: Yes, I did post this in both the nexus one and droid forums just so I could get opinions from both users and to avoid any bias (at least as much as possible lol)
Ok well sorry if this thread has been done a million times buttt....yea, as the title says, I have a nexus one with tmobile right now and am thinking of switching to verizon and getting the droid. I'm just wondering if you think this is a smart decision? I know it depends on the person and everyone has different tastes but I'm just looking for your opinion. I love the nexus one and I'm not switching due to hatred for the phone, its just that I can save a lot of money by switching into my families verizon family plan and splitting the cost of the plan. I know the nexus is on its way to verizon but I think I would go with the droid anyways just because I get sick of the same phone after awhile lol.
So can anyone give me some insight? I know the nexus one has a faster processor and everything but if I switched to the droid, would I really notice that much of a speed difference or is it just minimal? I used a droid in the verizon store and the speed difference didn't seem to major but I had very limited time with it so I could be wrong. I also like the droid due to the fact that it has a physical keyboard, even though its one of the worst i've ever used, its still better then nothing and I hope that it will improve my mobile gaming experience as trying to play those snes and genesis emulators on the nexus one is hard considering how crappy the multitouch is
So yea, what do you guys think? Is it worth it to switch? Now that the droid has 2.1, has it closed the gap on the nexus one do you think? I also know the droid can be overclocked but idk if im willing to do that or not yet. I also know that the nexus one has twice as much RAM or ROM (whichever, not really sure), like 512 to 256 or something like that? Sorry but I'm not the most tech savvy person and I'm not even sure what this means, can anyone provide insight as to what this means and whether its a big deal or not.
Sorry for the long post but I just really need insight here! Either way I love the android OS and don't plan on switching for awhile lol unless the new iphone really does come to verizon and blows me away....but we'll see! Thanks!
