Re: Strong Points of the TP2 [over Android]

Mac vs. PC anyone? hahaha

Pick your side on the WinMo & Android issue, be mature about it, don't bash the other side, and enjoy your decision. Easy as that

Re: Strong Points of the TP2 [over Android]

I have had wm since the cingular 8125 and was anti android... I really was anti everything pretty much die hard wm.

After giving it a shot I just can't go back because for me it its smoother, faster, more refined. Everything including surfing and text input doesn't lag plus I don't find myself ever having to reset the phone.

The android market also is really impressive, I've never had such an integrated experience.

WM has its niches but overall I cannot trade off this performance and stability. If I need an app to do anything my wm would it's a cinch to find with all of the android development engulfing the mobile world.

Re: Strong Points of the TP2 [over Android]

Re: Strong Points of the TP2 [over Android]

Also, might be because Android is being ported to the TP2 and many people are trying it on their phone and are surprised at how even a buggy feature missing build is performing and how many amazing features it has that are lacking on WM.

Re: Strong Points of the TP2 [over Android]

Okay Okay... I'm not saying Droid is bad or that windows is better, I know with-in time I'll getting an Droid phone. But I need something thats really going to KNOCK my socks off ( in amazement ) and the Droids that are out now isn't that much different for me to go to Sprint and spent 312.00 Bucks on the EVO. I'm a Flash junky and there just not enough development for me ( MY OPINION ) Plus I love my keyboard and I havn't seen and Droid that beats the PRO 2 keyboard. Maybe in the future HTC will come out with an TP3 that's an Droid and maybe the development will be a lot better.

P.S.
Also there are a lot of good points a lot of people said in these post and it all boil down to being YOUR ON PERSONAL PERFERENCE.

same way i felt, figured why procastinate might as well just do it now i too was a flashaholic but i kinda grew out of it i guess. i still flash my tp2 a lot but now its more of just experimenting. when the tp2 was my main squeeze i flashed to make it better because the starting point was so low, honestly i have no desire to flash my incredible, there really isnt a need to.

as far as your opinoin on the amount of development, are you basing that off what you see here on this site? i agree theres no where near the amount of android dev going on here as winmo but there are many android centric forums that are rocking just like this site. seems lately to me at least that this and perhaps xda are the only phone forums people visit. ive read a few post actually saying things like samsung and motorola android phones dont have a lot of development just because their specifc forums here are pretty dead. the original droid was/is the most popular android phone in the us, there is a LOT of stuff you can do with those and a lot of people hacking/tweaking/cooking for them.

htc does have a qwerty android phone floating around in the rumor pipeline but i doubt they would use the touch pro moniker for it. if they did bring back the touch pro name i would venture to say itd be a wp7 handset

Good points, I only jumped when I realized I could sell my TP2 for the same price I got the EVO for and got a $70 credit from Sprint for renewing 2 year agreement on another line.

2. Three Letters... *CHT* Need I say more? why would you need CHT on Android? with widgets you can put anything anywhere already, without the need to install a 3rd party software(CHT) to do so

3. The updates and constant changings. Android has had offical updates every several months since its birth.. its on its 3rd software update in less than 2 yrs hasnt it?? took MS almost 3yrs to offically go from 6.1 to 6.5..and 7 is rumored to be another 5.. winmo loses the update battle

4. Damn near every App. on Droid you can get on windows. maybe so, but like iPhone, Andorid is being chosen over winmo by corporations for offical apps.. ie-radio stations,pizza places,netflix,just a few

5. Maxsense, a growning U.I. that is the SHIZZ-NIT. Maxsense is an elaborate skin job.. plenty of people dont even use it, so this is just a preference by you, not actually something most of the Masses are using..

6. All the people that help, the community. like andorid has no support?? PPCG is a PPC site first, other OS' second.. theres millions of android sites and support

7. All the different CABS. and ZIPS; Themes (different colors) and customs. again, this is all existent for android

8. CHEF's: ERG, VINN, Mr.X (still using some of his app. in all the different ROM's I flash) and Mighty. all great chefs, but make ROMs for certain handsets usually... if you browse around, youll find lots of chefs just as dedicated as the ones mentioned above-for other devices, including Android...

9. Then your SATODS and BignAdad (I call him BIGGS)

10. I think the TP2 (HD2) has more fans. of course theres more fans, winmo has like 10years of production over android.. winmo despite having a license fee(android is free), winmo offers more free things and has little to no spam what-so-ever.. this is really your only statement i see eye-to-eye with you on

So on that note; I'll wait to get a DROID phone as long as they have the TOP TEN, MY TP2 IS A TEN, Till they come out with something that has all the above. - and you do realize a "DROID" phone, is a product line from VZW right?? "DROID" is not short for the Android Platform.. its a specific line of devices.. hence no other carriers Android devices being called "DROID"... theres lots of Android options aside from "DROIDS"- dont limit yourself

Please tell me what you think.

P.S. I'm still a noob... LMAO

theres my 2 cents
