YEAH baby! My Demo will be here today!

[skipfreely]

Have you tried taking pictures with it yet? I'm coming from an IPHONE4 and currently using a DroidX, the iphone4 camera quality dominates teh droid x, I was really hoping the t-bolt is superior to the droid x camera quality.... thanks!

Could you post some pictures you've taken with the phone for us?

Thanks so much WorldOfJohnboy!

Do you have any way to check and see if the battery from an HTC Eris or Incredible will fit and work in the TBolt !?

Thanks again.

I can check with my wife's Incredible battery tonight. If I remember hers though, it is bigger and thinner than the TBolt's.

Would SUPER appreciate it. I've heard they were going to be different size / form factor for the TBolt. If by chance they are the same, you can find the extended batteries for Eris/Inc far cheaper
u
Keep any new discoveries coming. THANKS!

Confirmed, the battery is smaller and fatter in the Tbolt.

Does it have swype? Also how is the screen clarity in comparison to the DX. The DX has an amazing screen

I tried installing the Swype Beta, but it was acting strange, so I just installed SlideIT.

I like the Tbolt screen a little bit better, the Super LCD is apparently a little crisper.

Just gotta say it.....

:icon_ worthless:

Agree.. I believe everything from the OP, but with how this launch has been going just a quick pic wouldn't hurt..

*SIGH* Attached is my photo. (Why did I decide to post here again?) Lots of haters, and they all seem to be Moderators.

Johnboy, what background are you using? The rain? It looks awesome. Is it live?

Johnboy, any chance to check the camera quality and compare to the Droid X?? I'm not impressed with the X camera quality at all...

johnboy just wanted to add to my post earilier that if the bolt didn't have netflix no sure if you mentioned or not, that playon.tv could handle those programs of netflix and hulu, and etc. other channels. Works best thru a third party browser such as xscope or dolphin. I use a Evo for a while so that is how I get my fix with trouble spots of not having regular android apps for this programs. I am no pushing the program, just notice you had mentioned something about netflix.

How are the download/upload speeds like and does the thunderbolt hold a really decent signal say in an average/low coverage area??? Thanks again!

 

[WorldOfJohnboy]

PS - 8+ hours without a charge and the battery is at 30%.

How much did you use it though? Because that's draining about 10% every hour.

That is a bit of a loaded question... the best I can explain is that this phone lasts just about the same amount as my Droid X currently does.

Yes, I agree... it is from one of my Adw Themes. It is not Live, however.

I did a quick compare last night, and the difference is minimal if at all. I believe they are the same specs, so it would make sense.

Very depressing information. I guess that's one thing the apple fanboys will have over me, the camera quality is superior.

Thanks for the info so far. Signed up to say thanks for the info! I think the rumors of the battery problems arise from using 4G, and what from I've read from your posts, you haven't been using 4G so far. Is that right?

Having tried three phones, I have to disagree with your assessment of the iphone camera being superior. In well lit situations, all three are equal, IMHO.

Correct. 3G only.
