I posted this in the HTC Mfr section but got no responses so I thought I'd post over here:
I'm looking to switch over to Android from iOS, and the typical Android super phones are all on my consideration list but I wanted to get some more experienced feedback from all of you who chose to read this post.
One of the phones is the MyTouch 4G. This phone seems to have a solution to just about every objection a buyer might have considering it's one of the more recent releases with a 2nd Gen Snapdragon, HSPA+, front camera, WIFI calling, FAST out of the box, FROYO, yadda yadda yadda.
So why did the price on this phone drop so fast? That's the only thing I can use as an indicator of demand at this point. I've seen it as low as $19 with 2yr contract in the last 2 weeks. It seems like most of the other super phones that came out last summer sustained a higher price for a longer period of time.
Is it that the screen is not that great compared to the big (4+ inches), or AMOLED screens? Is it just not a sexy design? Is it really buggy like I've been reading about the Galaxy S phones? Is there something just plain wrong with the features I listed above?
With some exhaustive googling, i can't find anything fundamentally objectionable to this phone (as compared to the other top tier phones). So why is the demand so low for this phone so soon after product launch?
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
