Photon: A worthy successor to the Vogue?

[desiindc]

I have been looking for a few months for a worthy successor to my Vogue which has a similar or smaller form factor. It looks like the the leaked HTC photon sounds like the next one line line?

This is way too early to tell and we don't know for sure which carriers would have it. But if it does come out on Sprint (and is eligible for SERO), would you get it to replace an aging Vogue?

the capacitive screen and accelerometer seems nice, but the smaller memory size and processor speed somewhat have me worried.

My thoughts exactly!

@desiindc

Check this one out! Maybe it will come to your carrier.

Or Mine...

Sorry folks. There was a typo in the original comparison. Photon has twice the memory as Vogue and has the faster processor.

@Lmiller1708: I am guesing HD2 might be a little big for me to carry in my pocket. That is why I am looking for the form factor similar to the vogue.

Moved to Phone Comparison... Please only post ROMs, radios, SPLs, etc. in the upgrade forums.
