I am on Verizon. My wife has had a Blackberry for a few years now, but I have a phone that really just makes phone calls (sure it has a camera, but...)
Now she's got her sights set on an iPhone, and I am feeling like joining the smartphone club.
But I'm a bit confused.
Originally I wanted a free phone, but it seems like all the free phones are Blackberries, and everyone I've talked to hates Blackberry.
So Android it is, then...
LG Vortex is cheapest at $30, but reviews make it seem pretty cheezy. The phrase "entry level" comes up a lot.
HTC Incredible and Motorola Droid X are both $70, but I've heard the Droid X is a spam magnet and the Incredible is near end of life. But I'm not sure either of these assessments are all that accurate.
Then there's the Samsung Fascinate at $100, which comes highly recommended and sounds good, except for the price. Remember, I wanted a free phone.
So at the moment, I'm leaning towards Incredible, but I'd rather spend less if I could, but at the same time, if the Incredible is almost obsolete, maybe it's worth a few extra bucks for the Fascinate. But then again everyone seems to love HTC.
Or should I just pony up the cash for the iPhone?
Any advice is welcome. Hopefully it converges on a solution.
