Best Phone I've owned so far...

Posted: Nov 29, 2012, 11:57 AM

Phone owned for less than a year

I used to own a T mobile galaxy s 4g, but after dropping it a needed a new phone. So looking online I came across the captivate glide. After getting it I fell in love with this phone. This was the best phone I ever owned. Sure the plastic build and battery wasn't the best but the dual core processor and camera made up for this. But the web browser was the best that I have used on any phone. And now after almost a full year I still love it.

Phone owned for less than a year

i went from side kick 4g to this and honestly the keyboard was a bit better on the sidekick but other then that pretty much the same phone just a little faster and little larger screen with hell of a lot better camera on it and i love camera on this phone. it would have been nice if i didn't have to down load 3rd party stuff right off rip for the fm tuner in it. but the fact it divx with add in was great and took me 2sec to launch xvid codec for it so added 32gb SDXC in to it and was quite happy when it worked seeing as it only rate for SDHC uTorrent worked great on it also have had no issue using google drive to acess my full movie libary and with the 4g streamed great on it I also have optoma pk320 i like to uses with it so honestly between the 2 devices i have my own personal movie theater that fit in my pocket also great i can pull them out and put my presenations for school up all though i think it freaks out my professors great hit at parties when you can get them to throw white sheet on the wall and bam the new hotest movies are up there this phone and that projector has made me a must have to any campus party but with out this phones divx and google drive compatability i could never do that stuff now that i have had a divx campatbile phone i would never but another phone with out that
