I am curious to know why current Incredible owners won't exchange or simply buy a Droid X to replace their Incs.
In my case.. after trying the dummy model in the store.. I wasn't too impressed. I did not quite like the design on the back.. and I am not too thrilled about the hard plastic buttons on the front. The capacitor type is much better in my opinion. The X seemed too big.. but was still manageable.. and it's heavier than the Inc. Screen is NOT going to be as pretty as the AMOLED on the inc.. and also Sense is much better than MOTOblur.
What are your opinions on why you won't jump the ship?
hey, fyi, when i clicked on your first link avast said it blocked an exploit.
Why?
Because I am a mature adult whose self worth is not determined by consumer decisions but in real relationships and accomplishments. I am stunned again and again by the emotional attachment and response that gadget purchases generate.
You didn't invent it, engineer it or build it. You simply purchased it.
Because Engadget gave the Droid X a 7/10 and the Incredible an 8/10. Thus, it's a no brainer.

Well, admittedly, I'll most likely be switching... but I don't see any reason for anyone to switch over if they already own an Incredible AND ISN'T eligible for an upgrade. Both are great phones and I think it really comes down to physical characteristics. I think the larger size of the X will do me good and it helps that I'll actually be making money after making the switch. I would prefer not to see comparisons of these two phones in terms of which one is better, bottom line. I think a better comparison would be to see which phone is better for the individual. Sleeker/smaller vs bigger. Almost like a control pad for a gaming console... everyone has their own size, sensitivity, ergonomics, etc preference.
What is apparent though: WE VZW Droiders are definitely spoiled with GOOD choices now. No matter which phone we go with, I don't think you can really go wrong.

If you keep chasing after the next great phone you will be buying a new phone every month or two. I think this especially pointless when LTE phones are on the horizon. Unless something goes wrong with my Incredible my next phone will be a 4G phone.
Easy on putting a philosophical spin on this buddy. We are not idiots to hold our self worth with the kind of phone we posses.. We are just techno aficionados and get immense pleasure in talking about techie stuffs and being on the cutting edge of things .
I think this article disagrees and they've actually seen all the screens in action. It's pretty clear to me that they think the droid x has the better screen. In fact, aside from contrast ratio (which is light years better on the incredible), the incredible came in dead last in every category.

I'm not saying the incredible doesn't have its advantages, but a better screen doesn't seem to be one of them.
not a fan of motorola at all, not a fan of their first droid that came out, and I like sense UI more than their Blur UI. I feel it's too convoluted and too based around friends and connections. I"m not interested in that kind of stuff. I just want to have a contact name and text it or call it. I've shut off all auto-sync and facebook stream settings in the D-Inc, and to be honest, i think the phone is too big, and at the very least, i know the battery will not be able to handle that display more than 4 hours probably. If the 1300mah D-Inc battery is having problems with the D-Inc display, imagine the same battery with a 4.3 inch display, unless the X comes with a 1500mah, or 1700mah, the battery will be a problem on that phone as well.
