I think everything here has been claimed, so I'm just going to call this "sold," but it may reopen if someone changes their mind. Thanks for your interest!


Hello! This is what I have to offer.

1st: Atrix and lots of atrix stuff


Please bare with this description, it was originally a craigslist ad, but it didn't sell. I'm just copying what I already wrote, so if it seems like a strange description, it's because I was advertising to the general public, not gadget nerds :p


***PICTURES AVAILABLE IN LINK BELOW***

SHORT DESCRIPTION FIRST!

I'm selling:
-Atrix 4G and everything that was included in the box, including the box itself (HDMI cable, USB cable, etc): $499.99 retail

-Motorola warranty for the Atrix 4G, good for about five more months: $0 retail, although I had to go back to AT&T to have them print out a copy of the receipt... and seriously, how many other sellers are including the warranty?

-Atrix 4G Case, featuring a built in kickstand: $29.99 retail

-Official Motorola Car Dock, and includes (again) everything that was included in this box, including the actual box: $69.99 retail

-A second official Motorola battery @ 1930 mAh (NOT some cheap knock-off brand - it's the exact same kind that came with the phone): 49.99 retail

-**OPTIONAL** The atrix has 16GB storage built in and also features a micro SD card slot. I have an 8GB microSD card that I can include, so ask if interested.


All told, I spent pushing $750 after taxes - granted, you'd probably pay a little less if you bought it today, but not by a lot... it's not like an older smartphone from 2008 or something, it was just released this year. I think AT&T's off-contract price is still $500, in fact. But anyway, $350 is $400 off the retail price. That's over 50%!

DETAILED EXPLANATION :


1. One Motorola Atrix 4G, which won practically every "best new smartphone" award when it was unveiled at CES 2011. In a nutshell: it is powered by an nvidia Tegra 2 (a dual-core 1GHz processor), an enormous battery capacity (1930 mAh), a full GB of RAM, and 16GB onboard storage (and a micro SD card slot of you want more space), and features goodies like a sharp qHD resolution screen, a fingerprint scanner, micro HDMI and micro USB ports, can act like a computer in webtop mode, etc etc. It's a 4" screen, compared to iPhone 4's 3.5" screen, yet the phone is almost as small as the iPhone 4.

You can check them out at AT&T stores, and you can read all about it online. I'd suggest reading Joshua Topolsky's (former Engadget Editor in chief, currently working at "the verge") extremely in-depth review, found here: Motorola Atrix 4G review -- Engadget The only thing I would like to point out about that review is that the software gripes about MotoBlur mentioned in the review have mostly been either addressed, fixed, or improved through firmware updates AT&T pushed out. Also, it was upgraded to Gingerbread (Android 2.3) from Froyo (2.2). Anyway, great phone, but I'm not going to say anything that hasn't already been said, so check out reviews for more detailed information.

Condition: It's nearly in perfect shape, thanks to the case and my tendency to baby my electronics, except for minor scuffs from normal use on the case, and a mark on the plastic above the HDMI input: this formed slowly as a result of putting the phone into the car dock several times a week. It has no negative impact on the phone and unnoticeable unless looked for, just a minor cosmetic thing. I took a close up picture of the mark so you can see what I'm referring to. The screen is Gorilla Glass, and has no dead pixels or marks. **SEE LINK AT BOTTOM FOR PICTURES*

1a. Everything - EVERYTHING! - that came with the phone. Even the box it came in. USB Cable, HDMI Cable, that amazing 1930 mAh battery (is there any other phone on the planet with that much battery capacity?), some instructional pamphlets, everything! (I paid over $500 @ at&t off-contract)

1b. A copy of the receipt, which I picked up at AT&T. The phone works perfectly and I don't expect anything to go wrong, but it's still under warranty with Motorola, so you can have some peace of mind.

2. A hard-shell case for the Atrix, which has a built-in kickstand in the back. ($29.99 @ Wal-Mart)

3. The OFFICIAL Motorola Car Dock... and again, everything it came with, including the box ($69.99 @ AT&T)

*A note about #2 and #3* The Atrix is supposed to fit into the car dock even when it has a case on, because you can slide out some extra piece of plastic from the dock, creating more room to accommodate the case. Unfortunately, it doesn't actually work that way: it just doesn't fit into the dock with the case on, meaning you're going to be taking the case on and off whenever docking to the car dock. I admit... it's annoying. There are some "fixes" available online but they all involve sanding down the car dock, which I am not interested in doing.

4. A SECOND battery! And not some crumby knock-off brand, an OFFICIAL, first-party, 1930 mAh battery - identical to the one that comes with the Atrix. You could go camping or something, and if the battery dies, pop in the back up battery and you'll have a full charge again! ($49.99 @ AT&T)

Next comes the Thrill 4G. I haven't tried to sell it yet, which means I'm not going to be using a previously written ad for craigslist, so this time I won't sound like I'm trying to sell you snake oil :p

The downside is that I'm exhausted and lazy and don't feel like writing much.

I have:

1. One Thrill 4G
2. One "ballistiks" or some weird brand case (it's a pretty nice case actually, kinda clunky and ugly, but I could probably drop my phone like a million times before breaking it
3. One screen protector
4. As with the atrix, the thrill comes with everything it came with, including the box, all of which are in great condition.

I bought the screen protectors and case at at&t when buying the thrill, so it's more or less in perfect condition. I haven't taken pictures yet but I'll make another folder on picasa of the thrill like I did for the Atrix. If you want any particular ROM on it, I'd be happy to set it up for you. Or if you just want plain old stock, not even rooted, I can do that too.



And here's what I'm looking for:

1. Cash

and/or

2. Android phones with 4.3" or bigger screens (I have big hands, the bigger screen trend is a blessing to me, keyboards on 3.whatever screens were so difficult for me to use) and use at&t bands for 3G or "4G." The one exception to the 4.3" rule is the playstation phone, I like that guy! I like super amoled plus, and I like HTC beauties like the Amaze and Sensation (but they do NOT use at&t bands :( so they are out). The GS2 would be awesome. The Galaxy Nexus would be perfect... I'd give everything listed here for one, so if you need two phones and have an upgrade coming up, maybe you could buy it and we could do some trading.

3. You know what? A tablet would be cool too, especially if it has a SIM slot and is compatible with at&t. Or if it's just awesome. I don't like Tegra 2 tablets though.

Thanks! Let me know if you're interested in anything I have here
 
Interested in your Atrix 4 G sent you a pm earlier.

Thanks! It's perfect that you're interested in the Atrix; I got another PM earlier from someone with interest in the Thrill. I feel like it would be impolite to use names unless the other interested Thrill buyer gives me permission, so until then I will refer to him/her as the Thrill Seeker :p

Thrill seeker basically just expressed interest in the thrill and ask how much I was charging. To get you on the same page, I'm going to paste my response. Let me know what you think - if we're all on board with this, hopefully we can work out an agreement that everyone is happy with. :) Anyway, here's my response:

Hello, cool that's great! As far as pricing goes, I don't know exactly, but I think I can figure out some estimation. Since making the "for sale" post I think I've pretty much decided on the Galaxy Nexus, because my big, clumsy fingers really need a large display. I got the atrix because 4" was a step up from 3.7" and much easier to type with, and then six months later I bought the Thrill because 4.3" was even even better than 4"... and also bought it because I thought my friend would buy my Atrix if I bought a new phone, because he said "I'll buy your atrix if you get a new phone," but apparently that means "I will change my mind after you buy the Thrill." So that's how I ended up with two phones, but that's a different story... Anyway I think 4.65" will finally hit the sweet spot for me, and plus I love amoled screens, so I would like to try to raise enough money for the galaxy nexus by selling all the mobile stuff I listed.

I think it's reasonable to assume that the price for the galaxy nexus, off contract, will be somewhere near $599.99, right? $499.99 sounds far too optimistic, and $699 would be absurd. I think worst case scenario after taxes would be around $700, and $650 would be my best guess. This might have been about the RAZR and not the GalNex (is that a good nickname? if yes, you heard it hear first) but some article said that it could cost $800 because the price was leaked for some european carrier, maybe orange, and it was something like
