Why is TP2 better than iphone

[brack21]

I'm looking to upgrade to the tp2, what I was wondering is how is the touch sensitivity(sp). I played with my buddies iphone and the way the screens scroll and move are really smooth with the finger. How does the TP2 compare. I currently have a vogue, and it's definitely not as smooth as the iphone when it comes to this. Can anyone comment who has played with both phones. Thanks.

Try with a MightROM installed TP2, it is fluid like $@$##

my TP2 is very sensitive (much more so than any previous PPC I owned) & I am very happy with it..

That being said, you can never get any TP2 to be quite as fluid & responsive as something like my 2nd gen ipod touch (I don't care what ROM you're running)

This is not necessarily a good thing totally however. What I find is, my ipod screen is almost TOO sensitive at times... If I have been using the TP2 (running Juicy R3 at this point & Mighty before that) & then switch to my ipod & safari browser I find myself constantly clicking on links etc. that I didn't mean to when all I wanted to do was scroll a page.

I love the way safari & that sensitive screen zooms (that part is awesome), but I am constantly having to hit the back button when I just accidentally clicked on a link or shortcut that I didn't mean to.

I don't have a TP2 to try it on. So with the mightrom it runs smooth. Have u used the iphone at all.

once again, to those asking about screen sensitivity. if the make or break deal is how pretty, fluid, and sensitive it is, then you are a. not interested in high quality audio, and b. probably not a good candidate for a TP2. The tp2 is very responsive, much moreso infact than i ever expected. the iphone is MORE responsive, and imo, too responsive, and that has a great deal to due with the iphone using a different screen technology. the benefit to that screen technology is its more responsive. the big downside IMO is that you cant use a stylus with it. with some tweaks, a good rom, and some getting used to, the tp2 is just as natural and feels just as snappy as an iphone, and yes, i have used, and have one of each in my home.

I cannot live without my stylus.

Also, I like that my phone has a very similar file structure as my Windows 7 PC. I know where things get installed, I know where things get stored and if I need to edit or cleanup my file structure, I know exactly how to do it.

I love how I can truly say I have a "POCKET-SIZED PC" because of that similarity. I don't really see that with any other device out there.

Also, if you're going to move this thread from the TP2 forums to the "Phone Comparison" forum, do it for everything else that isn't where it's supposed to (then move SkyFire posts in the TP2 forum to software). I hate inconsistent mods who don't understand the stupidity of selective enforcement online.
