its called the galaxy s ii, dipshit

>>16904421
Witht he president of ATT or HTC? Mind sharing the story?

>>16904462
Pictured is a Galaxy S i9000

Fuck if I remember the shit from when I was younger. The old Nokia phones didn't have memorable names.

>>16904421
I absolutely faggots that feel they need to call or have the prestige to call "the office of the president" for anything and I hate them even more when they think they're actually dealing with the president of the company.

>>16904462
>Galaxy II
its not out yet dipshit

>>16904531
he said it had a good screen so I got confused. i9000 screen is mediocre

Done.

Might be wrong with the years, Its been awhile.

>>16904540
>i9000 screen is mediocre

Black blacks, color accuracy, contrast ratio, refresh rate, motion response, and viewing angle all far beyond what any LCD can deliver, is mediocre? Take a hike.

>>16904530 I absolutely faggots

I absolutely the whole faggots

>>16904580
>pentile
>oversaturation
technically the og droid line has the best screen. ips with actual color accuracy

>>16903822
Making a pic takes too much work...

God Tier
HTC G1, 2008-2010 (The first, or one of the first Android phones. It was awesome, it replaced my Blackberry, which I enjoyed as well.)
Blackberry (I don't know the model) 2007-2008 (This was great for texting, and text entry itself.)

Okay Tier:
HTC Nexus One 2010-Now (It's a pretty awesome phone, but it's missing a keyboard, which is something I really want)
Motorola Krazr (or Krzr?) 2006-2007 (My first phone. It was the phone for cool kids back in day. I remember liking it, but it's shit compared to the phones you can get now.)

I think I'm going to get that Samsung Galaxy phone with a keyboard next.

>>16904580
yeah, that guy is a faggot. the i9000 has the best screen I've seen on any phone.

>>16904421
HA t-mobile's gonna get bought out by at&t

>>16904611
samefagging now? lol

>>16904611
It is.
>>16904604
Then wait for the galaxy S II which does away with pentile so that you will have nothing to whine about and be stuck acting like one of the crt loving children.

>>16904626
have you not seen the og droid screen? it is one of the most accurate screens around. you retards love oversaturation and see it as quality.

>>16904468
office of the president of AT&T

HTC was "lol dont care"
ATT OOTP was "please dont complaint to the AG and BBB, have these brand new free phones"

I had to call in via skype because the tilt 2 that me and my mum had were same batch and had same issue, managed to get hung up on 7 different times by AT&T in a matter of 6 hours, left a nasty nasty message, pretty much yelling at them saying everything short of "im suing". Needless to say, they got off their asses and fixed it within 24 hours. Now if only the rest of their mindless minions were like that...

havent had one issue with my Captivate since the switch like almost 5 months ago..

>>16904615
as i said in the last thread, wont happen. it causes a monopoly on GSM networks, hence no merger. T-Mobile will be getting some of ATTs AWS 4G frequency though, because of the deal AT&T and T-Mo made if the merger falls thru (T-Mo gets like 3 Billion iirc plus AWS)

>>16904617
nope, op here, not that guy.

>>16904604
>LCD
>color accuracy

Pick one. There is no back-lit display with accurate colors or values.

Fuck making a picture.

Started with a "Bird" phone, whatever the fuck that was.
Then went with a Sony Ericsson W850i
Then to a Sony Ericsson W980
Then along came the Samsung Galaxy S. Which I fucking love.

How would having the only GSM system in the US be a monopoly?

>>16904708
Cool link, bro.

But an author's opinion is just that. I had an iphone4, too. It's screen was alright. Grey blacks, poor motion response. Very sharp, though, even in front of your face.

He seemed to really miss the point, and you can always tell when they mention brightness - OLEDs don't have to be adjusted to burn your eyes out - you have to with LCDs to compensate for their terrible contrast.

>>16904781
>author's opinion
they used actual measuring instruments

Here's my phones.

>>16904711
You obviously dont understand the concept of a monopoly do you?

Only one GSM provider = Only one provider of a certain good = monopoly

T-Mo and ATT are the biggest and only nationwide GSM cell carriers in the states, Verizon, US Cellular and Sprint are the CMDA ones.

We have to have at minimum two of both GSM and CDMA for their not to be a monopoly of each cell service type. Not everyone one wants GSM and not everyone wants CDMA. I know there a lot of fuckers on here that say GSM is better and vice versa.

Imagine if Comcast and Verizon were the only broadband internet providers. If Verizon were to buy Comcast, that would cause a monopoly, but because they both exist, it gives the people a choice between one or the other.

Make sense, my uneducated anon?

>>16904793

And when you get to the actual measurements section, you see the OLED out-performing the retina in every way except density.

Are you even reading your own source?

Too lazy to do the graph thing, but here's mine.

>>16904842
are you dumb? i never said jack shit about the iphone

>>16904840
monopoly isn't defined for specific technologies. It's defined by market sector. Otherwise, every patent would be a monopoly.

Sony Ericsson nokia look alike in 2004
Samsung clam phone the size of a 4 month fetus in 05
Motorola Razor in 05
Sony Ericsson walkman phone in 08
iPhone 4 tomorrow

>>16904892
its not designed for specific technologies yes, but GSM service versus CDMA service are two different goods, therefore its a monopoly.

However, once the 4G rollout is complete with T-Mo, Verizon and AT&T, that changes things. We could end up with AT&T and Verizon, because its all under the 4G guise, and like you said specifics dont matter (and in theory without looking at spec papers, phones should finally be able to jump ship between ATT and Verizon) so then it would be a non-issue. But right now its an issue, because your locked to whatever network carrier tech you buy.

So yes, its a monopoly.

>>16903822
>I buy phones to impress people
Really?
No...
Really? This is why you are paying thousands of dollars a year for data plans?

I honestly haven't seen the draw to get anything else. The Motorola W85 (current phone) at cost set me back $20. A replacement battery after 4 years was another $15.

It makes calls like a phone and it does useful things like not have any useful internet connectivity. This prevents me from wasting my life checking rss feeds and the like.

My job keeps me in front of a computer for about 6-7 hours daily, and my 4chan/flash game habit takes at least another 3.

>>16904840
The difference between GSM and CDMA is not as big as you make it. Additionally, they aren't permanent. Any wireless company can switch from one to the other, as these technologies are not specific to the carrier, they are only adopted by them.

They may even switch to a new technology altogether. These companies are not bound until doom. They are only business decisions. Verizon and AT&T have decided to incorporate LTE. Sprint is not sure which direction it wants to take yet. LTE phones will decide the future of these companies, yet it is not bound by GSM or CDMA.

If AT&T remains as the only GSM carrier in the United States, that does not mean they are the only wireless provider here. Verizon and Sprint will still be more than able to provide a similar service. It isn't a monopoly if both AT&T offer an iPhone for the same price, with the same service, and the same monthly fee.

In reality, the only major issues with the difference between CDMA and GSM is that most phones only support one type of technology. Most carriers ask for exclusive phones anyway.

So. Where is the monopoly? And are you sure you are using it correctly?

>>16904548
enV3 turns off on you all the time I bet, right?

>>16905161
hi
>>16904645
here.

If you have that phone to, and that problem keeps persisting, you can take it in and get it replaced because it is under a manufacturer's recall for that exact reason

>People not picking iPhone as one of the main phones this decade

Remember how cellphones were before the iPhone?

I think I still owe AT&T like 650 bucks.

>>16905222
uh. This is personal experiences with each phone, not "notable phones for each year"

How do you fags afford internet for the phones? Assuming you call at all.

>>16905373
By having a job

Also
>having a carrier which forces you to have a separate plan if you want data

>>16905373
I have 500Mb for ~9€, it's enough for the moment between wifi at work and wifi at home.
>Assuming you call at all.
Well, I rarely use the phone to make calls.

>>16905258
there, I added text descriptions

Last thread's OP here.

Upgraded mine and realised I've had a different phone for the past 3 seasons. Looking bad since Samsung Galaxy S 2 is seducing me.

I do love my Nexus S tho, so I might be able to resist.

I still have a Nokia 6300 because I only use my phone to make phone calls.

GODLY thread, OP.

derp

>>16905459

Droid 3 is coming out soon, I suspect the Milestone 3 will be out on Optus soon as well.

Bump.

Who the fuck would buy so many phones there the biggest waste of shit ever wish I just kept my 6300

>>16905106
You are a fucking idiot. It's not about GSM or CDMA. T-Mobile is the only carrier with competitive pricing. Verizon, Sprint, and AT&T have the same exact pricing.

Two dumbphones that I can't remember the make or model of (one was by Audiovox)
LG ENV2
HTC Droid Incredible

Next phone will probably be the iPhone 5 or 6, unless the Android OEMs stop being such faggots with their anti-rooting methods.

>>16905858
I had that Alcatel, too. Loved that phone, so small. Although the joystick broke. But the phone still works.

Anybody who thinks this merger won't happen is deluding themselves. The FCC and FTC don't give a fuck about consumers. They let every radio and television market get bought, they let comcast buy NBC universal, ffs.

>>16907702
Joysticks on that whole Alcatel line were shit. Though I was lucky to sell both my 301 and my 511 before the joysticks died.

The 9500 was a real disappointment for me. Shitty build quality, no 3G and a really underpowered processor. Because of those things my E90 was pretty much my first phone that I used for more than phone calls and SMS.

>>16904840
There are plenty of regional gsm providers. It wouldn't be a monopoly.

To use your own analogy against you, there are no regional ISPs in my area. I have two choices: Comcast XFinity or Verizon Fios.

So should I start some sort of class action case against comcast for having a monopoly on cable internet in my area?

>>16908335
It wouldn't go anywhere, both of those companies are afforded special treatment by municipalities. Look up "natural monopoly"
The states is completely assbackward when it comes to telecommunications in every form. Now that we're primarily an information (and agri lol) economy, it's going to bite us in the ass sooner than we think.

Here you go.

Can't be fucked with a picture.

2006-2008 Motorola V360 (Shit)
2008-2010 LG TU500 (Not bad)
2010 - present HTC Touch Pro 2 (Great, now that I've got a custom ROM on it)

>>16908573

I was a bit saddened that i missed out on getting a TP2,

hows the keyboard on those things?

>>16908573
Then get the fuck out of the thread, no one read your faggot list.

>>16908618
Any comments about that weird downwards slope?

>>16908590

They're fine. Probably not as tactile as I'd like, but they're acceptable. With the custom ROM I have loaded I don't really need to use the QWERTY keypad since it has a finger-touchable on screen keyboard which works quite well. It's not a bad phone overall, although if I had my time again I'd probably buy an Android phone.

But this was $200AU from eBay nearly new so I can't complain.
