Droid Bionic vs Verizon iPhone 4

If you spend $300+ on the iphone, sell it for even a really high price of $1000, gives you $700....then turn around and spend $600 or so on a Bionic.....really sounds stupid to try and make $100. And thats not hardly guaranteed.
 
Buying the iphone with a contract and selling it isn't a bad idea. was the iphone 4 actually selling for 800-1000$ on ebay and such?

I'm probably gonna use your idea.

My sister has an iphone. I wanted the iphone a long time ago. But with my droid running 2.2.1 with flash, and running launcherpro plus and sweeterhome2, I don't find myself wanting an iphone anymore.

I'm cool with my droid. dancedroid
 
I have been a die hard Android fan, but I have been playing with my roommates Iphone4 and it just blows me away.

I dont know whats going to happen when it comes to verizon!

I just seems to intuitive. Yet android gets updated all the time. And allows for custom roms.

Im stuck.
 
Sorry, I am new to this app. I was replying to the poster who said motorola and htc were the only brands that made droid phones...

Hey, what about the samsung fascinate? C'mon man!

I copied all my files to my PC, then used titanium for backing up my apps.

Then, wiped everything and went back to stock 2.0 android.

Then, I flashed Ultimate Droid 2.5.

Re dl'd my apps, and this phone is once again - unreal fast.

Dld new copy of launcherpro, and I'm in serious business. My Droid is reborn, and it's LEAN!

I feel like I could use this phone for 3 more years - the utility is undeniable!

There is a difference between a phone that runs on the "Android" platform, and a "DROID" branded phone (licensed rights from George Lucas to use that name, mostly just a marketing ploy). Only HTC and Motorola make "Droid" phones (on Verizon). The Fascinate is not a "Droid" although it does run on Android. Get it?
 
In addition to being a phone junkie I am also a Subaru enthusiast. This thread reminds me of the many Sti vs Evo threads on NASIOC. It has over 100k members world wide so imagine how many pages those things run LOL ! It always comes down to personal needs and preferences. I rail against apple for it's tricky marketing and less bang for your buck every chance I get. I mean they painted an mp3 player white and gave it a name with the word "pod" in it and the world thought it was something new. It cannot be denied the iPhone is a well built device. The stainless steel with aluminum/silicate glass and lithium polymer battery is pretty good stuff. The massive amount of after market docks, mounts, and so on cannot be ignored either. Anyone that is using LTE as the main disadvantage for the iPhone had better check the vz coverage map. LTE is really only for city folk for the time being.

Apple has taken advantage of the fact that the average person does not want to fiddle with drivers to connect to their pc, forced closes and freezes nor deal with just about any type of learning curve. My wife's fascinate is a total pita to mount to a pc. This makes pic loading and syncing with rhapsody something I have to do for her. So, if you can't use LTE and want the device to be easy for a non technical person to use why not get them an Iphone ? See, even a devoted ipod hater like myself can see a benefit of getting my wife an iPhone...:)

I for one love my droid xdancedroid. I also like the fact that by this time next month I will not have to deal with. Honey.... my music won't play.

LG is another, the new sprint phone with the dual display is made by a not so well known company.

Nice! About the same member count and the same passion . My favorite post in this thread was from the guy that talked about growing up watching black and white tv and only the government , large universities and major corporations having computers. I am from the same time. I really think people like he and I appreciate things like smartphones and flat screen HD tv's more than say someone my son's age. He graduates from high school this year. He has never known a time when there wasn't a pc around. He has had his own since he was 13 and got his first smartphone when he was 14. A moto Q.
