Vogue Users: Opinion on Samsung Instinct?

[mikeylive]

Hey folks!

I'm curious what all of the Sprint Touch users think of the Samsung Instinct. Obviously nobody has one yet but there are plenty of videos and stuff online. What are your thoughts?

Anyone planning on switching? I'm unsure. I need to wait and see how the OS performs and if its compatible with Exchange, etc.

I know this may not be the correct forum to ask this, but I am curious of what Touch users think! If you don't have one, please feel free to voice your opinion!

I don't think I can leave Windows OS, there are so many little programs I love on it.

agreed. even though this phone has alot going for it like, GPS, rev.a, 2 batteries, and a large but slender screen and a 3.5mm jack, i think it will end up as another close ended phone. The beauty of the touch is it incorporates all the things the instinct has, with the ability to be modded and such. Shid, our hackers will probably develop programs that mimic the instinct AND do it better than instinct can. Im not leaving Winmo anytime soon, its just to versatile.

hmmm idk.. ive been looking at some videos and it looks pretty damn good. im thinking about holding off on the touch and just wait for the instinct. lol

barring an unforseen major glitch i will be buying it for my primary line, with my touch on the secondary.

It's a decent looking phone but no IM (according to what I read) and no Slingplayer means no Instinct for me.

No windows mobile. which means giving up alot of apps/programs that you will miss.

Just to sum up things that everybody said:

NO WINMO? Then it wont be anything good, close ended-ness is not a good thing for a phone. it seems more like a gimmicky phone than anything.

I took me a while to fall in love with Windows Mobile, but here's the deal. You strip windows mobile away, and all you have is an iphone competitor. I can assure you that this thing is no iphone, i've used an iphone and i've seen people use the instinct. No comparison whatsoever.

Don't get me wrong, it'll have a good price so it will definatly sell, but i'd take a touch over the instinct anyday

I have had my touch since its debut, and i really like the apps it offers, but i'm digging the Instinct based off what've read and seen. Not saying i'm doing away with the Touch, but i will give the Instinct a chance.
