well I don't blame. I'm assuming you live in the stone ages since your hiding behind a stone wall and think this phone is cool...
haha.

probably... i mean to make such a big hype for a phone that's a brick? no 4g...? no front facing camera? this literally looks like a Nintendo DS as a phone. It doesn't really appeal to me and probably a lot of other people.

Probably not. It is an industry first, but it's also pretty much just a gimmick, like 3D. I would have been much more interested in a dual core phone, or even an Evo with an updated processor.
I can see how it would be good for mulittasking...if it had the power of a dual core processor...but the specs are very underwhelming, and the battery life is going to be horrible.

Its not that bad a phone but sprint did themselves a great disservice by hyping it up so much. People where expecting something huge and instead got a phone.

it's sort of like taking a ds. And then taking out the gaming capabilities of it, and then.... selling it.

Yes. Yes you are.

The issue is that it "may" be a good phone once some people get their hands on it and play with it.
But you cannot deny the overwhelming negative response (see their facebook page) as a pretty big sign that it may not be a good phone.
If you look at it from a sales/marketing POV they would much rather have a phone that everyone thinks looks really cool at a press release, but then falls a little short of expectation in the real world. At least they sell some phones, and the high initial praise helps sustain the life of the phone.
Now look at this situation, especially in this economy, 99% of the initial response is bordering "verbal lynch mob", even if it a good phone, how many people will actually give it a chance?
First impressions can kill...........

It's an interesting concept, I'll give them that, but it's made by Kyocera, looks like a brick and not a lot of developers will go out of their way to make use of both screens.

I've seen almost nothing on the phone, but I agree. The hype was the worst of it.
I recall saying something similar would be great. I dropped the thought when tablets came.
EDIT-saw the video. WTF? Now I know why people said brick. I no longer have any interest even in passing.

The biggest issue is that from what i understand, its a basic Android. Phone with a 2nd gen snap dragon running 2 screens. Won't that hurt performance?

4G - I don't have it...and i don't need it.
Front facing camera - Mine sucks..i hardly use it.
Maybe it's just the cool factor of it, but I think it looks more professional than the Evo.

now thats just silly!
But, remember,
you will never get an update past the OS that they ship it with
you get like a whole 5 apps that can utilize both screens, and no developer is going to waste time expanding their code base to accommodate this
and now i have lost interest! lol

Actually its the second gen check out engadget fire more proof...i don't feel like providing it.
. Under the hood there's a 1GHz second-gen Snapdragon running Android 2.2 -- we'll forgive the older software because Kyocera had to do extensive customization to add dual-screen support to seven core apps like the browser, email, and messaging.

Hardware, like most Samsung products, is usually pretty immaculate - can't complain about that. TouchWhiz UI is likely garbage as with most Samsung products software.
So with Root and a competent developer who could get AOSP working - Rockin.

My problems with the moment were hardware related. I'm going to keep an eye on this phone though. I want a kicking 3G phone though since I don't live in a 4G area and hate the idea of paying extra for a feature I won't use.

This is like phone porn. I'm all horny for touchwiz 3. http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/29/samsung-epic-4g-preview/
Think this will be my next phone, i'm tired of waiting for HTC to put out a killer android phone that has a slide out keyboard. I have had bad experiences with samsung phones in the past (they were before smart phones even existed) but i'm willing to give them one more shot with this phone.
I've never had a Sammy phone. I had a couple Sony Ericsson's and then the HTC Wizard came out, been with HTC ever since. The hard qwerty is what drew me to HTC, I had no idea places like xda existed. It's been over a year since HTC has made a keyboard phone and the HTC Vision has one but I think it's only going to Tmous and I can't do that because they dont have a single 3G tower in Arkansas... I'm presently on AT$T because when I first got a cellular in 2003 Cingular was the best carrier in the state and I'm a creature of habit so I've stuck with them. But, they suck about picking up phones I like, the iPhone has hamstrung their network, and they're handing out free femtocells but when I called about that they basically told me to fu*k off. My two complaints about my TP2 are slowness and no headphone jack. Epic 4G/Galaxy S Pro ameliorates both of those to a t...
So, how do you people like Sprint? They'd save me money and I like the new phone every year... Also, what's the build quality like on sammies? Last question is are they as easy to take apart/repair as HTC phones are?
I have to say that every samsung phone I, or anyone I know has owned, holds up like a tank. They drop them, throw them and step on them and they are fine. I wouldn't be that rough, but its nice to see.
Really? I was a little worried about build quality since they seem to use a lot of plastic and little if any metal. I'd love for Epic's slider to be as firm as the Droid's but wasn't expecting much.
Well, their initial quality is what it is. But they stay in that condition with very good resilliance in my, and my friend's, experience.
I have a sammy dumbphone, the a727, and it has amazing build quality. Soft touch plastic, super thin and light, great battery life.
Samsung can make a good phone if they put their minds to it. The epic seems like the best galaxy phone, mostly because of that soft touch back. Getting the soft touch battery cover for my Pre made it feel five times better, much more solid and durable than the crappy glossy bendy plastic that is default on the pre(and the other galaxy variants).
Can you see how far we've gotten in the world of on the go? =)
Another thing. Isn't this video just beautiful? --> Epic

I'm pretty sure we're going to get all of that, but adding 3d is just something to help differentiate and spice up the EVO...I suppose.
I really don't see a practical use for it, but we never know. I remember when cameras were first introduced to' cell phones and a lot of people didn't see the practicality, but now look at how big they've become.
I'm sure we'll find something useful for 3d, assuming it works well.

"Samsung Mobile" (from Facebook) just posted the 1st add for the Galaxy s2 on YouTube:
It can't be too much longer folks!
If only the phne truly was waterproof like the advertisment.

Yep, that was posted a few days back in another thread. Looks nice and sexy.
It was leaked a few days ago but now we've got it from Samsung Mobile directly, so that's a good sign indeed!

Nice commercial; they're realizing that the average consumer doesn't need to be blown away by specs and CG graphics to buy the product. I hope they make more that showcase the qualities of the phone but they are heading in the right direction.
I fail to see how Moto continuously makes the spec oriented adds for the Xoom when Apple is winning the hearts of many with it's emotionally attached and "awe inspiring" commercials of the iPad 2.

I know this, but as you can see with the sales numbers, the Xoom isn't selling THAT well. People are quick to forget that "we" make up a small percentage of the market and that isn't where companies need to advertise.
Think about it, how many people who actually know what those specs mean wouldn't already know about the Xoom? The point of a commercial isn't to advertise to your target audience (of course it is, in a way) because we are already "sold".
With new products like these, they should be going for the average Co sumer, one who doesn't know about the tablet and is wondering why they should get that over the iPaD.

I have an EVO and I'm switching. Don't get me wrong. I love my EVO to death and have had a blast with it. What I'm switching to the NS for is the Screen, battery life, and updates. I like the EVO screen but the SuperAMOLED screen is clearer and smaller to a size that I like better. 4.3" is too big for me to carry in my pocket. Battery life also. I have an extended battery and don't like the added bulk plus you add a case on top of that? It's just not comfortable for me. Updates is self explanatory.
I love the EVO but I gotta move onto something that fits me better. I'm passing the EVO to my mother who has my old Hero now. She needs something else to cause everyone knows the Hero is well behind standards now. I'll be following up here still. Once that Snap v9 kernel comes out, you can bet I'll be first one to get it!
I personally would love to have one but I want to see how the community welcomes it. I know it's stock android and some people love that but I just want to be sure there will be some steady developers on it. I really hope sense can be ported to it. It's obvious the phone is better than the evo spec wise but I will really miss Sense if I leave the Evo.
Size, speed and updates make it worth it all alone.
My g/f pre-ordered the Nexus S 4G and she was the first one in my area to pre-order it (at least in that particular store.) I'm excited for her to get it and see how it stacks up against my Evo. I know being pure Android it's going to get the updates before anybody else. I also want to see how the screen is.

I'll probably be switching. The look up comparison videos and you'll see how much better the screen is.. Plus faster updates and newer hardware. The specs are the same number wise but the ns is a superior piece of hardware

I'm guessing English is not his first language.
I could barely understand what you are asking for, but I doubt Quad Cores will give you good battery life. The Atrix is already big enough with its dual core CPU and somewhat mediocre battery life. I would say go with the Atrix, thing is a beast once you flash a custom ROM onto it!
tegra 3 i heard it has an extra core (5 instead of 4) for idle processing so that instead of all the cores running at low speeds it has only one running to conserve battery or so nvidia said
haha im sorry guys. My phone has the touch screen glitch which makes one half not wok properly. And I know, the thread was named wrong LOL and also i think i made this at 2 in the morning. Which doesn't help. I wanna know what are some phones that have the same specs (or better) Than the atrix, like I wanna be able to dual-boot miui and cyanogen mod and has good battery life. i was looking at the droid 3 but i don't know, what do you guys think? sorry about the confusing post again haha
I understood OP perfectly from the first time.
No need to flame the guy.
And don't make assumptions like "OP sucks @ typing"
Because you dont know what his situation is when he typed.
he could have been in a earthquake.
And no, im not his lawyer

Seriously.
To be 100% honest - most people here DO suck at typing, earthquakes notwithstanding ... and spelling and grammar and ... well, you get the idea.
Atrix would be the best phone ever if it had a 4.5+inch screen, 4inch is small nowadays.
In my opinion, the Atrix is the best all-rounded phone I've ever owned.
Snappy speed, perfect sized screen, excellent battery life, good loudspeaker, lots of memory

Yes, 4+1 as they say. I believe its clocked are 500mhz for small tasks
I still think the Atrix is an awesome phone. I just purchased one over the Atrix 2.
How big of a freaking phone do you want in your jacket or pants pocket? I don't know about you, but I don't want a huge device in my pocket. I want a size that is large enough to get stuff done, but not be so huge where it sucks down the battery and becomes a pain to carry around.
I really think a 4.3" screen is the limit. I liked the smaller 4" screen on the Atrix better because it would obviously suck a little less battery down and its just the right size with a case on it.
HTC just announced the One X with a 4.7" screen?! I mean c'mon, WTF, if you want to carry that beast around thats great, but have fun.
The "bigger is better" theory with cell phone screens does not ring true for me.

it's not the size of the boat...
that said, huge, awkward screens on phones always seemed a little phallic to me. like the nerd equivalent of the fastest car, loudest car, highest truck, etc.
