Fellas, help me decide
Ive had the Mogul for a few months now and I was able to get my hands on a Touch, I need to decide by Monday which one I want. The Touch is obviously faster due to the increase in memory. What do you guys think I should do. I love the Mogul but im getting tired of waiting foe the ROM update

As a touch user, I say a touch with the seidio 2000mah extended battery is smaller and outperforms the mogul in my needs. |
Re: Fellas, help me decide
I say Mogul

Re: Fellas, help me decide
personally i would go with a mogul because the unofficial update isnt ahrd to use and the cooked roms containing wm 6.1 are freaking awesome so i personally would stick with the mogul but tht is jus because i like the GPS and fast EV/DO speeds.

Re: Fellas, help me decide
Its a TOUGH call. Lately I have been seriously missing the hardware keyboard as I switched to a touch as my main phone. But what good is the keyboard when you have to constantly close and reopen any memory intensive programs. I still have my Mogul and may switch back after the official GPS revA rom.
I have never had to worry about slow phone performance and program management on the touch. But sometimes, I just want a friggin keyboard lol. |
Re: Fellas, help me decide
I owned a touch for about a week, and it was a nightmare. Froze constantly, didn't receive about half the calls, and was always unresponsive. I just switched to the mogul, and despite the lesser memory, I swear the thing is a lot more responsive, and has been completely reliable.
It may not be as sexy and sleek as the touch, but id take the Mogul any day. |
Re: Fellas, help me decide
I'd say if you want the "woah cool" go with the touch. if you want to impress yourself and feel like you are getting shit done, get the mogul.

Re: Fellas, help me decide
isnt the touch going to get rev a and gps as well
|
Re: Fellas, help me decide
Yea the Touch is supposed to, but there haven't been any official statements. But I still have Mogul so once the official GPS comes out for the mogul I may use my Mogul until the Touch ROM comes out. I mean as far as missing the keyboard, the XT9 on the Touch is amazing once you get used to it, but just miss the physical feel of a keyboard sometimes. But the Mogul is also HUGE compared to the Touch also. The screens are very different too. I don't think one screen is better they are different. The viewing angles are limited on the Touch but it has a much brighter vibrant screen. The Touch also has a SLIGHT grainyness which you wont even notice after a while but if you put it side by side with the mogul you will notice it.

Re: Fellas, help me decide
ive played with both of the phones for weeks.. (former sprint rep) and im a text monster as i text around 4000 or so times a month... and one would assume that the mogul would suit my needs better, but honestly the touch broke the deal for me.. and this isnt really including speed, memory, and slimness. i like the fact that i can whip out my touch.. text a full paragraph and then put it back in my pocket within a minute or two.. now with the mogul it takes like 3 or 4 minutes, lol.. another thing is i drive a stick.. so when i get a text message while driving, i can whip out the touch with one hand an kill a text message in seconds, while with the mogul you would have to slide out the keyboard and try to text with both hands on that keyboard while tryin to avoid killing yourself in a car wreck, haha.. plus i bet ALL the touch users can text 3 times as fast as any mogul user.. especially with touchpal.. its amazing.. hopefully i've helped your opinion

Re: Fellas, help me decide
textind and driving:scratch:...](*,)...whichever you get please don't do that because you have to think about killing more than text and yourself...:headbang:

you know.. it was just an example... its obvious you are a mogul user.. i mean we arent supposed to talk on the phone while driving either but people do it.. but for the sake of safeyness.. children, please dont text and drive.. you might give a specific mogul user (who's name wont be mentioned) nightmares <rolling eyes> |
Re: Fellas, help me decide
LOL...i love you too shizzle and i was not pickin at ya just tired of the same threads being reposted over and over lol..with the same outcome<rolling neck and snaps finger> lol

Re: Fellas, help me decide
i may be wrong, but cant ya get the touch soft keyboard onto the mogul via cab download?
|
Re: Fellas, help me decide
yeah you can.. but why get a mogul if you are just going to download the on screen keyboard? people want the mogul for wifi and the hardware keyboard.. if you want the onscreen keyboard i strongly suggest just going with the touch, because you will get other speed/ memory benefits.. but its really all about the persons preference

Re: Fellas, help me decide
Agreed its all about personal preference, I got the Touch I have used it till I am sick of that little no keyboard call dropping @#$%^&! There I said it I have changed back to my Mogul! I NEED BUTTONS!!!!!!!!! :headbang: I feel better now, don't get me wrong I like a lot of things about the Touch, but mostly I like the size and the extra RAM is nice to have. (can you say Kaser) The Mogul is a machine IMHO the best device Sprint has to offer, by far not the best device out but very solid I still have the first one I get when they first came out and its a tank I am hard on my PPC it takes a beating and this one still feels solid. Good luck I hope you make the right decision for you I know I did, I gave my Touch to my teenage Daughter. :lol: OUCH!

Re: Fellas, help me decide
It's a hard decision to make. When I went from my Blackberry to my Treo, I was happy but not extremely happy. Although the Treo was running WM5, the keyboard was just too small. Going from the Treo to the Mogul was night and day. I don't think that I could do without the keyboard now and the WM6.1 is just too cool. I've seen the Touch in action and like the speed and size but I'm still not sold on the onscreen keyboard. I find myself doing quite well with the Mogul's keyboard and like the tactile feel. As you can tell, I'm partial to the Mogul right now since it fills all of my needs and some that I didn't even know that I had. Like a flashlight. lol.
Good luck on your decision. |
Re: Fellas, help me decide
Had a mogul, switched to the touch, switched back to the mogul. The keyboard is too important. I thought I could get away with on-screen keyboards like sbp and touchpal but I was wrong.
|
Re: Fellas, help me decide
It's all about the keyboard. I've seen some BT setups that let you use an external keyboard that you carry with you but then why carry a mogul. As mentioned previously, the Touch is pretty cool speed and memory wise but the keyboard on the Mogul is the reason I think that users will stay with it.

I use resco keyboard with the IPhone layout and txt one handed while I am driving all the time. The keyboard really only comes in handy for me if I am typing long emails or posting a longer post on PPCGeeks.com! I love WMWifiRouter too much to give up my mogul and add in the fact that we already have REV A and GPS as of this moment its not even a question. Also if you upgrade to WM6.1 the memory issues seem to be minimized. I have not seen the out of memory error once since i have taken the plunge to DCDs custom 6.1 roms. |
