I was one of those who ordered an Incredible and had to wait about 3 1/2 weeks for the phone to arrive. During that time, the X got announced. I tried to cancel the order, but according to the reps it was undoable .
Anyway. The phone has come in and I have been playing with it for the past few days. I am coming over from a BB Tour, so this thing is awesome to me. But I have nothing android to compare it to.
My thoughts for getting the X are mainly for the increased real estate. I love to surf the web on my phone and so to me bigger is better. I am a female, but I have decent sized hands so I don't *think* it will be a problem. I plan on trying to find a dummy phone or a demo before launch day to try it out, but I realize that 5 minutes with the phone won't necessarily tell the whole story. I have played with an EVO and I was IN LOVE with its size, so I am thinking the X will feel similar.
What features, other than the UI of course, would I be sacrificing by switching to the X? Historically, does Motorolla have a better reputation for quality and service than HTC?
I really like the Incredible, but the lure of the size is too much for me to resist. I also have a BIG problem with the placement of the volume rocker on the Inc. I keep accidentally turning the ringer volume down when I got to wake up the phone. I missed a pretty important call this weekend because of it. I've had some iffy call quality, but I don't know if that had more to do with reception of the OTHER person or not. But overall... REALLY big improvement from the BB.
I would appreciate some input. I have til Aug 2 to decide. Of course... I've planned to be off the morning of the 15th
Thanks guys
