Dude the arrive isnt a good phone plus its older. If hes updating he might as well get something newer and high end. The arrive has horrid reviews.

@fixxxer2008 it has horrid reviews on the web because those reviewers are biased or don't know what they're talking about, very hard to find an unbiased review about a phone online. on the sprint site the arrive is one of the highest rated phones on there in customer satisfaction and any bad reviews there are due to the person not knowing what they were getting into before buying.

@aedon not really just making another suggestion just like what @gullzway did. its funny what he says about his epic "this phone is money man" but I won't be with the arrive much longer because sprint's ongoing slow 3G speeds have caused me to email dan@sprint.com to try to get out of my contract. I'll soon be rocking an HD7 on T-mobile.

The HD7 is a much better phone.

well I didnt mean it in a bad way. Im just saying that you always promot the arrive and mango
as far as sprint goes, I dont blame you. The towers here seem to finally be okay
luckly I spend more time in austin, and they have good 4g coverage.

After the horrid customer service I delt with I would prob totally concider a different carrier.. but I cant find another SERO lol

@fixxxer2008 and on a much better network whose crappy towers won't drain my battery in under 2.5 hours.

@aedon well with t-mobile on this prepay plan I'm considering which was suggested by @gTen. it includes unlimited texts,5GB of data and 100 min for $30 a month, if minutes are an issue u can purchase refill cards or subscribe to the $50 plan which is unlimited minutes and text but only 2GB of full speed data. so that's like SERO. only downside to prepay is u have to pay full retail for whatever phone u want which means looking on eBay and Craigslist which is what I'm currently doing.

Eric just make sure you have good tmobile coverage before switching.

Well currently I dont have any restrictions on anything but minutes.
I have 500 mins a month, but unlimited text and no data limits.

I checked that awhile ago when they started their 4G claims. IL is drenched in hot pink and purple.

The Epic is Money, especially running Gingerbread. But I'm on SERO, if I had to pay $79.99/month like the new contracts, I'd be on another carrier yesterday with the somewhat poor coverage and speeds I get around my house. I use wifi at home,but there's a 5 mile radius around my house that is 1x coverage. If they ever axe my SERO plan, I'll most likely look into the T-Mobile plans you mentioned!

I'm aware the grass is greener, but the green out of my pocket is also a lot more! Last time I checked an individual plan on Verizon with text and 5gb data was around$ 90 With a 21% employee discount.
