As an ATT user I feel bad for you other carriers...

[mmaman]

I feel bad for people on AT&T seeing as it's consistently the worst rated network overall, but they do have the best WP7 selection currently.

I have been on att for years and have had 0 problems at all, so have many family members and friends. Hater gonna hate.

I'm on prepaid GSM. I'll get whatever phone I want......and I thank you

4.3?! Holy ****, why not just get a tablet?! That's H E double hockey sticks... just fyi

I think for a phone 3.6-3.8 is about the biggest I'd ever want. I want a phone to fit in my pocket. To me, the Arrive at 3.6 is just about right. Big enough screen to be usable, but not so big that it doesn't fit well in the pocket. Even with the extra girth from the slide-out keyboard it's still pocket friendly. Don't get me wrong, if they stretched the border of the existing screen and wedged a 3.8" in there I'd be more than happy but making it physically bigger would kill it for me.

You'll get used to it

So far there are no good phones on American carriers. WTF is going on here?

Looks like everyone will be buying a iPhone 4S or Samsung Galaxy SII for Christmas, leaving WP7 out in the cold. I have to say that Nokia is severely disappointing me.

Hmmm so no super hi-res WP7? We're still stuck with the same old 800x480?

They can't keep up with Apple. The iPhone 4S is the first "world phone" and once again Apple changes everything. The competition is always 2-3 years behind. Maybe by 2015 we'll finally get a Retina Display on a Windows Phone instead of the same old 800x480 crap.

You seem like such a negative fellow.

Just because they work great for you doesn't mean they are great for everyone. AT&T does have poor ratings. No carrier is perfect. I like Verizon but I know they don't have good coverage everywhere.

LOL! There's a few that make me wonder why they are here. :happy:

Because they love to complain/troll.

Verizon needs CDMA

Verizon needs CDMA Windows Phones, is that not correct? All these phones coming out are GSM phones. I think that's why you can't just "buy an unlocked phone and be done with it". But my understanding is that at least Nokia will release one or more CDMA WP7 phones. Then maybe Verizon will have a new one. I'm really counting on Nokia World for some revelations here. I do like the Verizon network, but I already responded to their e-mail thanking me for sticking with them that I won't be much longer if they don't show WP7 some love!

Sprint, like possibly Verizon, won't activate a phone that wasn't branded from the factory. Probably more control than some of our fellow GSM customers would care for but at least I know that my stolen phone can't ever be activated by the thief once I report it stolen.

At least with CDMA, it doesn't matter what network you're subscribed to for the most part. While I never have signal issues with Sprint here, when I travel and end up in a Verizon-only area I just roam on it. It's free anyways.

Meh, I would like 4g I guess but the trophy is the perfect size for me and mango runs likee butter for me.

 

[kylej1050]

I don't have any friends that use 4G. Few of them in the bigger cities have the service but they say it kills the battery so quickly when it's on that it isn't worth it.

Same for me for the past 12 years except for my treo 750 was stuck on Cingular when everyone else in the family was showing ATT (which was no big deal at all)

Its all about the coverage and I have never had issues with coverage with ATT in my area and customer service no gripes either. Maybe in other areas like NYC i see people complaining but not in my area of west central Arkansas and NorthWest Arkansas.

For myself I dont like Sprint and GTMo is only recently come into the area and VZN well their stock is a good one to own but I dont like them (personal reasons) service wise here ther're all decent to very good.

 

[Apoc]

- ether because AT&T is dishing out more $$ for wp7 and getting mroe EXCLUSIVE phones.

- other carriers dont care much for wp.....

I think it's a bit of both

 

[palandri]

...Probably more control than some of our fellow GSM customers would care for but at least I know that my stolen phone can't ever be activated by the thief once I report it stolen...

I am wondering if that is holding true now with CDMA carriers like Cricket? They'll flash any CDMA phone to work on their network.

Its like 2 mm wider than the focus not really that much wider at all.

It still remains to be seen what Nokia will come up with at the end of this month. The other carriers may yet end up with some sweet Windows Phones.

Yeh, MS is screwing istself by not offering more CDMA phones for Verizon and Sprint. Verizon is the #1 carrier and as a whole CDMA users in the US outnumber GSM users easily. I brought my son a droid not because that's what he wanted, but because for a 10 yr old buying a $200 phone made no sense. So I brought him a $20 droid. How many other people are doing this and not just for their kids, but for themselves. I understand worldwide GSM users outnumber CDMA users, but MS is killing itself by not offering more CDMA phones in the US. My older son wants a WP7 phone because he is big into the XBOX and only wants it because of its XBOX Live capabilities. A lot of these young kids who are into games will go to WP7 because of this, if MS provides the phones.

If I did not dislike the Droid so much I would have brought one. I just can't stand how much it reminds me of an I-phone, its a knockoff, and I know I would hate the darn thing because of that. The I-phone and Droid are just like the old palm UI, they just have a black background or a custom picture instead of a white background. Think about it give the old palm UI a black background or a custom pic in the background and voila you have an I-phone. Innovation my Arse, its a palm knockoff. Oh, I forgot they made the screen flip 90 degrees. WOW!!! Now that's innovation. Its to bad palm had no vision, because if they did they would be were Apple is today.
