    You all are recommending the best, but that comes at a premium price point. Sometimes, someone can't afford to get the best. Specs plus price can equal the best OPTION.

    Again, if the person isn't going to use all the bells and whistles, then that should be an option. If the guy just wants a phone with more horsepower than he will ever use, then go ahead and throw away some money.

    I just saw a guy yesterday that was still using a Treo. When I asked him about it, he said it worked, sent texts and pulled up email as well as went online, and that's all he needed it for.

    So it doesn't matter what OS you have or how fast your processor is, if you want to do basic stuff with it, then there's no point in dishing out $199 when he can get something cheaper. , the Nexus S is going for $99 and isn't that far removed from the Galaxy S II.

    And even the Nexus S may be more phone than is needed.
    You can't forget that the recommendations take into account that this will be a two year commitment.

    My company is footing the bill. I just narrowed it to the Samsung Galaxy line, but wanted to hear with others are using, good or bad.

    99 dollars for a Nexus S is really ridiculous when you consider I just got my Photon for 79 through Amazon. You can get the S2 for as low as 49 on sprint on there but its 149 if you already have a line. Still, 149 for the S2 would be MUCH better than 99 for the Nexus S.

    Just no reason to get a 2 year contract for a Nexus S when you could get one on craigslist or ebay for 100 bucks.

    I think I just automatically dismiss Motorola like I do LG with phones, not sure why. My Razr experience wasn't THAT bad. Engadget gave it a pretty glowing review and said it was better than the Galaxy S2.

    I'm not an avid Ebay user, but use it occasionally. Is it safe to buy a phone through Ebay? My current phone sucks, but my brother just renewed the contract to get himself a new phone. I can't afford paying full price for a good phone, but on Ebay I found a few that were reasonably priced. Not sure if it's reliable/trustworthy.

    I just ordered a Motorola Photon on Sprint. Was chosing between it and the S2.

    Really no point in picking any phone on Sprint thats not the Photon, Iphone, or S2.
    I ended up getting this Photon 4G.

    I could have switched carries but I didn't want to have to get new business cards and change all my contact numbers with my customers.

    Unlike the majority of driod phones,This phone is ready out of the box. No rooting required. Seemlessly blends with the os and productivity software you already use. Zune pass is a killer music service. This phone will last you.

    How do you like it? I've had mine for a couple of weeks and I've enjoyed it.

    My four year old LG died this week & I upgraded to the I Phone 4S…People tell me that it is the simplest smart phone to use…I am amazed at the Siri applications…Just talk into the phone & it translates comments for texting…This was unthinkable technology just a couple of decades ago. The I phone is still small enough to keep in your pocket but people my age my find that they need their reading glasses to read the small screen. Another positive for the I Phone is that so many people own them and there are so many Apple Snobs who are more than willing to teach you various functions of the device. I hear that it can also make phone calls.
