Hows the clarity on it?
I Have never needed to remove my battery before so I see not big deal about it now.

As for the clarity, Krystal clear. It also video's in 1080i. check out Post #116. I took that with my phone.

true, I am a different kinda nerd I guess.. lol.. a phone is a phone to be. I hardly use the smartness of it.. I already am smart.. lol.

Correct, Incredible 4G is CDMA vs Incredible 2 which is GSM. Camera sensor has been improved on Incredible 4g but still a VGA front camera... :(
Processor is super fast, snapdragon S4.
It was suppose to have NFC enabled (Google Wallet hack anyone?) but official specs have not been released yet.

lol.

Yeah i put new versions of ICS roms on my phone at least 2x a month. In some cases, pushing all the buttons does not reboot my phone, thus i have to pull the battery out.

Think of it as a way.....of modding the phone. I love modding cars, did r/c cars back in the day, and now phones on top of it all

That pic looks grainy to me is it just my monitor? lol

Read how you can go to Vegas from California using the GPS and still have juice left over on the way back, COOL!

I'm........not too excited for the phone. Its missing the same camera from HTC One S/X, image sensor, etc.

It does have removable battery and sd card slot..the only plus to the phone.

I will wait and see...LG is suppose to be unveiling their latest phone which has 13mp with a camera sensor to match Samsung Galaxy S III.

Verizon's becoming boring...again~

thanks for the heads up.... there doesnt seem to be much exciting coming from verizon lately, device upgrade is available for my other unlimited line and it's hard to choose which one i dislike the least. i may see how the incredible 4g is reviewed after it comes out and choose then. old phone is ...getting old...

Verizon has always been terrible and overpriced. It is hard to beat the quality of their service though.

No problem sir.

Agreed, I was looking at used Incredible 2s on eBay. I MAY end up doing that and retaining my upgrade...

But someone posted on here that Verizon CEO wants to take people out of grandfathered-in unlimited data plan once they switch to a 4G phone...

lol yep, my htc inc. has been a great phone, i was hoping to upgrade to another
to go along with the other thread
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/verizo...--finance.html

on yahoo today, looks like i'll probably just get another bionic and upgrad my plan before it's to late

edit: razr maxx should be here in a day or two, really wasnt to impressed with it but i only get a new phone every other year or so, hopefully it'll keep up for that long

god damn it, that article is annoying. Fuck the Verizon CEO...Shammo BAM his ass.

So....would they kick people ALREADY on 4G phones off the unlimited data plan as well? <---thats my question....because then I shouldnt even upgrade to a 4G phone...and go the route of Incredible 2 and when my other 2 plans are over..i switch to T-Mobile~

Here is an updated version from Verizon to New York Times...

http://dvice.com/archives/2012/05/verizon-were-ki.php

Quote =

Update: Verizon issued an email clarification on the matter to The New York Times:

- Customers will not be automatically moved to new shared data plans. If a 3G or 4G smartphone customer is on an unlimited plan now and they do not want to change their plan, they will not have to do so.
- When we introduce our new shared data plans, Unlimited Data will no longer be available to customers when purchasing handsets at discounted pricing.

- Customers who purchase phones at full retail price and are on an unlimited smartphone data plan will be able to keep that plan.

- The same pricing and policies will be applied to all 3G and 4GLTE smartphones.


So, any way you look at it, after mid-summer....if you want a new phone down the road even being on 4G already, you will be booted off unlimited data plan.

Down with Verizon!

I'd rather be on T-Mobile paying LESS for services, not really unlimited data, better phones, and GMS/World phones.
