I spent some time with the Infuse today and came away very impressed.
I am an Evo owner and will be switching to either Verizon or Att sometime between now and late summer.I went to the verizon store to check out the Droid Charge and came away pretty impressed. However, it is a little laggy at times. I then went to the att store to check out the Infuse and came away more impressed than I did with the Charge. The one major area the charge won though is in the LTE 4 g speeds. It is so fast compared to Att's fake 4G network.
But the phone was very smooth. That screen was just amazing. The 4.5 inch display combined with the small bezel and thin form factor was really something different. The charge was a very nice phone on a great network. I am very impressed with the LthreeTE speeds. However I just havnt decided if the difference in general web surfing and rhapsody streaming needs to be at 10megs. Is 1 to 2 megs enough?
Thats the decision I will have to make. Of course if the Galaxy S2 comes soon to these networks then i will have something else to consider. I dont care that much about dual core in general. I dont play games on my phone much.
Anyway. Good job samsung. Very smooth, Very nice screen....
Also...the camera... very very impressive. I will be glad to see my Evo's blurry pics gone.
Thanks for the great feedback and your opinion on these two phones.
Here's a few thoughts I have to share. First I have been with both AT&T and Verizon concurrently for ten years. I've got five activated lines cause I'm a real smartphone addict
I carry a minimum of two phones everyday and have always experienced great call quality from Both networks.
Its a long story, but suffice to say the truth is, Apple used cheap sub par Qualcomm chips in the iPhones. First to save money and second because they are great at keeping secrets and knew they could point the finger at AT&T and get away with it. I'm Not with AT&T, nor am I promoting them, just sharing some facts. I have no problems with them or Verizon.
As far as their 4G network, it's important to note they were the last to advertise it. The reason is simple. Just like a lot of advertising is misleading no matter what product, competitive pressures come into play. So AT&T had to advertise since everyone else does. Yes currently Verizon has LTE, but in a very short time AT&T's network will be even faster. They are spending huge sums of money to get it done fast.
Personally I'm eager to buy an Infuse for its large display. Samsung has revamped its commitment to smartphones and support. I'm really impressed after talking to one of their top executives recently. We are going to witness them get better and better as they become more influential with US carriers.
The current belief is its Samsung that is slow to release updates, but the truth is, its political and the cheap carriers (that's all of them) don't want to. They want you to buy another new phone. So that's that.
