Returned Razr today for a HTC Rezound

[EL Lacost]

All 4g phones can do both while on 4g but only the tb, rezound, and Pantech breakout can do voice and data at the same time while on 3g

Got my sister a rezound and me a Razr, getting both today in a few hours. I'll try to make a first impressions review thread, and in a week or two I'll review them.

I expect that the rezound will be faster on paper, but garbage software, err, HTC sense will bog it down. Razr will be sexier. The Razr will do better with long falls (not that I have intentions on dropping it) due to its light weight, and the rezound will hold up better cause it's plastic-ish and rubber-ish material.

Not a fan of Dr. Dre at all, but I'll check out how the audio is too. It seems not many pro cell reviewers are audiophiles, and just go on about the headphones. What about the audio chipset? >.>
Finally, compare screens. The Razr should do better in sunlight, but the 720p wonderfulness of the rezound should be better overall.


Worst comes to worst, I'll make some convincing argument and tell her the razr matches her shoes better and trade.

Rezound only $49 at Costco Online (for existing Veriozn Customers!!!) I thought it was a mistake, but the phone representative told me that it wasn't an error.

So help me out here.... I'm new to the business of switching out phones. I bought my Rezound on launch day from Wirefly for 249. Is there any way I could trade it out for some other phone and then trade THAT phone out for a new (cheaper) Rezound? And would I have to do all this with Wirefly only or could I mix and match retailers (like Costco)?

You'll have to return it to Wirefly.

The only way you can tell if a phone gets better reception than another is using them both in weak reception areas. I guess all the manufactures have gotten better with reception, dont really know. I just stuck with the first manufacture that had better reception than some other phones I tried.

Yea...I was scared away from Amoled screens due to all the Pentile and over saturated talk. In the case of the RAZR...it was waaaay overblown, probably with other phones too. I equate oversaturated with wildly inaccurate colors. I dont see it with the RAZR. Its all preference.

Look at the battery meter and you'll find the issue with pentile

I dont follow...lol. What are you trying to say? Pentile = worse battery life than non Pentile?

I dont know why your lol-ing. Look at the battery meter and you'll see the grainyness of the pentile display come into play. I have a D3, had a DX2, and the pentile is crap. I compared razr and rezound side by side at verizon and rezound screen hands down smokes razr and all current moto displays. This is why I will be getting either nexus or rezound. Yes I know nexus is pentile but its a different type. Anyone that tries to argue that the razr display or any moto display currently out is just blind.

I am not sure why anyone would look at their screen close enough to see the pixelation of the pentile screen. I go cross eyed if I try and get close enough for it to matter, I have my screen brightness at 11% all the time and this screen is more than perfect for me. I played with the Rezound in the store and would never trade my Razr for that thing. Feels way to big in the hand it is was lagging in the store because of the HTC sense, and I don't need my music to sound any different to justify the paying for Dr. Dre's "Beats Audio" BS.

While I agree the Nexus "may" turn out to be a better phone, I still think the Razr is going to win out in the end. This is a great phone and after a software update and a full SBF and more DEV support this thing will rule all.

Having had the Incredible for almost 2 years, I'll never own another HTC device. Support and updates are terrible. Sense is a resource hog and their phones are like bricks.

FWIW, Nexus / Razr have the same pentile rgbg with samoled, nexus will just be higher resolution. But I bet color saturation will be almost identical.

I've read where some say the GN screen is not that great.

You mean at the top of the screen? Dont see what you're talking about....at....my....normal viewing distance. Can I see it if its real close to my face? Yea. Do I use my phone real close to my face? No. I already posted a few times about ppl might have different viewing distances. At....my.....normal viewing distance I either barely see it or dont see it at all. If I look for it, focus on it its easier to see. Does the entire screen look like you're looking thru a screen door? Not in the slightest. Letters, edges of icons its easy to see....for me.

Gotta remember thats what makes this world a special place: everybody's different. You may see Pentile issues further out than I can. Good for you. I cant unless its real close to my face. And I have good eye sight. So if you see it further out than I can you have better eyesight than me, Or your viewing distances is closer than mine.. And what you feel is better doesnt make it gospel. Glad you have a fav phone and screen in mind...for you. Doesnt make it the best and doesnt make it better than the next. P.S. the grainyness of Pentile is always noticeable if held real close to ones face. So if I wanna see it...I just hold it close to my face. Or in specific instances. Someone pointed out the red letters in the Youtube app, Pentile can be noticed real good. Too bad I dont spend all my time on the Youtube app than I probably would agree with those that say the screen sucks...lol.

Every phone, every screen has pros n cons. Even the Nexus and Rezound, screens n all.
