just looked up that whole breaking of tethering thing, very interesting.
i just hope to see a revolution in hardware at some point this coming year.
not gonna lie, i would have liked to see a little bit more of a revolutionary google phone. (but i ultimately cant complain because i still am sucking wind with the iphone 3gs haha)
I don't think you can really go wrong seeing where you are coming from. Just about anything you get will be an upgrade in hardware, performance as well as user experience. It sounds like you are really doing your research and I have a feeling you will get the right device no matter what. The only two things I would suggest would be to actually get each phone in your hand and see what you really think and to maybe start a thread in the Sensation forum as well as the SGS2 forum to ask what people like and/or dislike about their phones. People are typically pretty honest about their user experience, but you have to take some comments with a grain of salt. We are on a forum after all and it isn't typical for people to come here just to shout about how much they love their phone. You could also visit the rooting section for each phone to figure out what type of developer support there is, if rooting is something you think you might be interested in.
yummmm key lime pie!!!! haha
that is a good summary of the compromise that is made in each of the manufacturers!
in my, admittedly limited, experience, samsung has the best screen, which is a VERY appealing feature, cuz no matter what UI, widgets, and other crap you have on your phone, you're always looking at that screen.
as you may have figured out by now, I am a HUGE overthinker
every product i plan to buy I do hours and hours, and sometimes months of research, before I make a decision. happened with my laptop, TV, Bike, DSLR, Speakers, even frying pans... and now phones!
I'm the exact same way. That is the way I found this forum and the reason I joined. Some of us are just nuts I guess.
The only way I can typically break down and make a decision is to actually make a need list and a want list. I'll go through and figure out what I actually need my phone to do along with the things I really just want it to do. Once I've broken that down then the decision is typically pretty easy. My problem was that Verizon has three pretty top notch devices coming this November, but the Galaxy Nexus really has what I need and want so it made everything easier.
