Re: HTC Hero... Worth it?

I think it is going to come down to me going into a sprint store and messing around with Pre and a Hero to make up my mind..

Re: HTC Hero... Worth it?

It'll take more than a few minutes in the store to really see if you prefer one over the other. I've had both, and I gotta say, they both give each other a run for their money, but they are both also worlds apart from each other. For my purposes, the Hero wins out. I keep the Pre for a backup phone and to take pics with a flash if needed.

between the Pre and the Hero, their is only 1 real choice.....the Hero.

I think the only phone that gives the Hero a run for its gonads is the Moment, only because it has a physical keyboard. But unless your willing to carry around added weight and thickness, i would stick with the Hero for sure.

As to the person who said "will their be more android phones in April?" The answer is a vibrant YES. You will be looking at some AMAZING phones in April. Hopefully the Google phone will have streeted by then. Anything coming out with the snapdragon processor over the next year will be a top tier phone. 1ghz on a phone ftw
