Should I trade my HTC Surround for a HD7S?

[jchapman01]

Hey WP7 Lovers! I have a conundrum. I want to know if I should exchange my HTC Surround for a HD7S. I really like both phones, especially the slide out speaker on the Surround. But the screen on the HD7S is A.... (wait for it) ... MAZING! AMAZING! I like the size of the HD7S and it seems to have a better build quality, too.

If you've got an opinion, please share. Thanks!

I personally would, if it is not too big for your liking.

I own both and in my opinion the screen quality is comparable between the two. The HD7S has more real estate but the differences in quality are so close.

I would put more stock into the form factor in deciding which to go with. The HD7S is larger but thinner. You lack the slide-out speaker but you've always got earphones for very good stereo playback.

The Surround is a little more pocketable and may have slightly better battery life. The slide out speaker is a plus if you prefer listening to tunes and movies without earphones.

Whatever you choose, I don't know if there's a bad choice. It's choosing which is the best is where the headaches come into play.
