@Chillaaaaxxx Why don’t you just chillax. Nobody’s perfect. For example you probably say “ur” because you’re not sure whether you should use “you’re” or “your.”
“it feels like it is much narrower than what it feels like” … ur an idiot
@ecmperalta Nope, sorry. You live in Argentina so you can’t use the Droid Incredible because it’s a CDMA phone. As far as I’m aware, the only countries in the world that have extensive CDMA networks are the US, Canada, and Mexico. South America uses GSM.
nice review

@hool47
very rough voice and a bit too much swallow-sounds from reviewer. Apart from that nice first look.
it´s possible unlock it? i don´t live in usa..
@revizcaino @revizcaino you will be able to do that with most android phones unless the hardware becomes out of date and unable to support the new OS. With a phone like this with all the newest hardware, that wont be happening for a long time, but with a phone like the G1 you’d be pretty stuck. And to update it usually comes to your phone automatically, so you won’t even need to plug it in to a computer.
so i havent seen a demonstration involving texting… can the phone be used in landscape? or is it just in portrait the whole time -.-”
Dear Matthew, do you have a cold? Please don’t take too much offense but your voice is very gravelly-grating. Otherwise the video is very informative, sorry about the slight criticism I must have sensitive ears! If you were ill, here’s hoping you’re better!
@tclkme that sounds great if you’re a “simple” person and you just want to buy a bunch of apps for you phone. but on the other hand, can’t you just keep it simple on a droid phone and download plenty of apps anyway? If all you want to do is look at some icons on a black background and buy a bunch of stuff (apps, music, video)… you could do that on pretty much any smartphone.
@smokedsquirrel I would buy this phone in a heartbeat if it wasn’t for that Sense UI faggotry.
haha @ all of you just continuing to argue with each other. Regardless of what you all say, this phone is still awesome. Personally I like it better than the iPhone, but that’s just my own preference. I will buy this phone, upgrading from a Blackberry Storm and I can’t wait =)
@revizcaino Well with Verizon, you will have an OTA (over-the-air) update, but since this phone runs Sense, most likely it will be delayed compared to Nexus One’s OS upgrades.
@tclkme Seriously….
Ok, do you own a iPhone? If so, how many apps do you have on it? Do you take full advantage of all the apps in the app store? I highly doubt it. Many apps are also crap (Just as in Android Marketplace). If you think a phone is better because of the amount of apps then wow. Speed, functionality, options, built-in turn by turn, integration of social networking, etc. must be gimmicks that attracts most of us to android
Iphone is sooo much better then any Droid it has so much more apps in its app store and it’s so much more simple
is it true that if I buy this phone i will be stuck with 2.1 OS forever or can I ever update the android OS once a newer version comes out?
I used to have an Iphone and everytime a newer version came out, i was able to just plug it to my computer and updated my phone using itune…
available space 666mb looool
@bassamgp
i know it can pinch zoom lol..the reason i ask about the multitouch is because the nexus one has an old glitchy touch sensor that barely supports two simultaneous touches which causes issues in multitouch enabled games like pong.. but the incredibles touch sensor is supposed to be upgraded to a newer touch sensor that supports unlimited simultaneous touche,s and from the specs of the touchsensor , its supposed to support stylus as well
@bigpapibob ; Yes the device has multi tuch feature and it is supported .
just like an I phone you can zoom in and out by pinching the screen just like an Iphone good luck brother ….
Next time eat a lozenge before doing a review. You have the voice of a 55yr old smoker, it’s nauseating.
Does this phone have a proximaty sensor? Motorolla’s Droid was impossible to make calls on. I am really interested in the Incredible, but am unfamiliar with HTC’s set up regarding screen lock during calls.
I went to the verizon wireless at dullus, VA, and they have a Incredible that you can try at the store, It is the best phone you can get. I preordered mine today and will be getting it on the 29th.
Of course there is going to be a fee for mobile connect. One reason why I don’t upgrade my iPhone is for the free tethering I can get. Good review man.
can you see if it has stylus support or finger nail? and can you test the multitouch on the pong game
