By the way, I'm not a gamer at all.

The only game I own is Need For Speed Undercover (g-sen version) which I absolutely LOVE, but that doesn't need a D-Pad so I'm not really a good critic of that particular function.......

But remember, I've never been concerned about the screen size. So, not considering the screen, is it worth the buy?

Re: TP2 vs. MY Touch Pro
 
all i can say is go try one out. my sprint store didn't have one, but the t mobile store did.

i was skeptical at first, thinking about waiting for the hero, but changed my mind when i got to use this phone. "Phone" barely even begins to describe this device.

i had the pro 1 and enjoyed the love/hate relationship in getting the damn thing to work. never had that problem with this phone. its beautiful and i get complements on it all the time. i saved myself from replacing my zune and from buying a nav unit with this little guy.

and about the screen- if you didnt get bothered by the smallness of the pro 1, then you will be after using this for a bit. 800x480 means you can see almost every webpage the way it was ment. videos also look better then most video players on the market such as ipood touch. just try it, i promise you"ll like it :mrgreen:

allow me to be perfectly honest with you......... the tp1 sucks. there's no need to think, compare, debate, or analyze..... just sell it asap, and move on..... the end

Well, I guess you're right. I'll just have to get m hands on one and try it out. But if the screen is the only thing about it that makes it worthwhile, then I think I'll pass for now (or at least until the price drops).

I just need more of an upgrade than that. I went from the touch vogue to the Pro for the light sensor, g-sensor, VGA screen, keyboard, and higher megapixel camera with flash. Now THAT is an upgrade. And even then, the screen was just an added bonus, because I still fall in love with the vogue's tiny little qvga screen whenever I see it.

I guess you can say I'm just too easily satisfied. But who knows... maybe I'll come back and eat that whole paragraph because I was blown away by the screen, but I doubt it lol.

Thanks for the reviews everyone! You guys helped me more than any of those Youtube vids lolz!

ahhhh, i remember what it was like thinking that the screen might not make too much of a difference... u may think it's not a deal maker for you, but i'd bet that you will not want anything less than wvga after using it for a while. besides, the screen isn't the only thing that's worth it. you said the keyboard is important to u too, well the tp2 keyboard is considered the best smartphone keyboard to date by all the reviewers and sites.

battery life is a little better, camera pics are actually better i hear (even tho it's still 3.2), video is taken at a higher resolution too (so the camera is not the same), build quality feels better, screen is more sensitive, 3.5mm headphone jack, amazing speakerphone sound (tp1 was terrible), proximity sensor so when u put the phone to ur ear the display turns off and when u pull the phone away it turns back on (tp1 was crap it just had a timeout to turn it off), and don't forget the tiltin display which is huge for me when i wanna watch videos.

But honestly, the keyboard and screen is more than enough to hold me over another year - with no regrets. If you're willing to upgrade from the tp1 after 10 months (or less maybe), then you're obviously not satisfied...

I always had that same issue where everyone had better battery life than I did... I think for me it was situational. Since I work in an area with low to no service the battery would die. I'm talking about, off the charger at 7:00 am and practically dead by 11:00am-11:30am... It was absolutely the worst battery life I had ever experienced. I mean, the battery life on the TP2 is not {cough} blackberry caliber, but it makes it through the day for me... and that's a big improvement

I do agree, I do miss the tab key quite a bit. But, with such a responsive screen, I'm getting use to navigating with the screen. Actually, I don't even mind using the keyboard on the screen for typing. It is very responsive. I think if anyone is not getting the results most of us are, you may consider swapping it out.

I wouldn't know about video as I've never taken one, but I see little/no difference between my new TP2 camera & my old TP's for still pics.

Both cameras work fine in bright light & are completely useless in low light. They both are useless for a subject that is moving even a little bit.

It's no big deal to me anyway as the only time I would ever use the camera is if I just have to capture something, don't really care about quality & there isn't a real digital camera within reach.

lol, not only that, the screen is wider too. I just sent my TP2 back yesterday to be replaced with a new one (eBay seller) and I'm stuck with my TP1 right now. Oh...my god. The screen on the TP1 looks like the size of a watch face by comparison. It's so itty bitty.

Re: TP2 vs. MY Touch Pro
 
Like I said guys, I'm really not concerned about the screen. I know you may not believe it, and I understand your doubts, but seriously, I really don't care about screen size. For example, some of you don't use the camera that much. Picture someone offering you a phone with a 6 megapixel camera... that might not be the best example, but it's something like that.

I'm still planning to go look at it, but actually, I've been wanting the device less and less as the days go on. Remember, we're not comparing the TP2 to A touch pro, we're comparing it to MY touch pro.

But who knows, there may still be hope for it lolz.
