[smoothguy432]

Do you have to pay for the wifi? for verizon?

[ejnewman49]

can i flash this phone to cricket

[LOERFDK]

@ejnewman49 yes

[garneson100]

I actually like John because he doesnt sit in front of the camera for half of the review .

[MrDROIDDUDE]

Getting this phone got read of the Ally the Ally was very glitchy

[OMGelectronics]

is the touch screen able to use any object like a pen or somthing, or does it have to be your finger?

[skinsfantyler1]

idk if i should get this phone or the moto droid. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!

[zakkwylde66]

is money an issue? if not then moto droid. i do prefer HTC eris cuz its more comfortable and i just like it overall

[soulweaponry]

Get this. Seriously. Money wasn't even an issue for me and i choose the eris based on the UI/os differences. Just runs so much better. And it's pocketable!

[AFHProductions]

I have the enV Touch but it has so many glitches that I'm done with it... what's better a BlackBerry or an Android?

[burningtoasters]

Having used both, I would say that Android can do most anything that Blackberry can do, and looks better while doing it. However, Blackberry's are more business centric, and they may handle those tasks faster or better.

I would choose Android any day, not being a businessman.

[crazychrzkidd]

@burningtoasters ya i agree with you ... if its mostly for business then blackberry but if you want an overall good phone then android it is

[benjiboy122]

Well bald people are nice, but your my exception! ^_^

[DopeDrae]

@ phonedog or anyone that knowss; kann yuh havee yuhr friends myspace updates kuxmm tuh their contacts on the eris too??.. kuxzz all he is saying is twitter & facebook.

[tylerrrsays]

hahahah wow way to type like an idiot

[ChristianMusician777]

if you typed english i might be able to answer your question

[AFHProductions]

lol, almost no one uses Myspace anymore.

[XoXPrePPYPRinCeSSXoX]

for the mail widget...do you have to have a gmail account? i have aol and would still like to be able to use the mail widget

[nstark89]

All Android phones support POP3 and IMAP mail servers, so most web-based email is compatible.

[videolover444]

omfg this phone looks amazing im getting it this week i cant wait!

[schoolboy347]

Thanks.

[leeysa16]

can u change the backgrounds to a different picture?

[darrellmusic]

@leeysa16 YES!!!!!

[RickPlems65]

Are people honestly arguing about who is doing the review of a cell phone that you're probably not even going to get? Grow up kids..jeez

[gangstawanksta022]

everyone, just shut the fuck up about noah not being the one reviewing. john does a fine job explaining the specs and details of the phone. noah is not the only peprson working at phonedog, and he basically gives you the same info that you just heard from john. if you dont like it, dont fucking comment it.

[Rappingkid1991]

is that really necessary? what are you like 12? do you even know that guy?

[BRANb1231]

@gangstawanksta022 Eat a dickk shutupp brah

[agmiint]

this phone is waaay better than iphone!

[07prmt562]

what?! you are CRAZY!! All phones that come out try to compete with the iPhone for a reason... iPhone is the Best!!

[chojihayashi]

@07prmt562 and AT&T sucks.

[videolover444]

agrreed thats the one of the reason i dont want iphone at&t is horrible

[enalls]

People have got to realize that Noah is not the only person to work at PhoneDog. John is the expert on all things Android so wouldn't you rather have him do things with Android devices?

[ham645]

fuck! no noah shit! got to unsub

[bmd900]

you go head and do that who the fuck cares!

[ElitePioneer]

noah makes better reviews.

[raffi127]

wow your a douche

[pllb]

What if John shaved his head like noah, would it be better?

[suaran01]

does it turn u on???

it is his head you care not how detailed his reviews are. john is really good with android

[1lyserg2]

hahaha he changed his shirt xDD

[SalFred82]

wheres noah?

[thetreverpitts]

this phone was the first touch screen i liked n it was easy for me to type on and easy to use its fast

[javi7148]

could u make a video of the touch pro 2

[skepticnewbie]

I am advanced

and very smart

because

I prefer

to use technology

to

get

ahead

[chojihayashi]

@ skepticnewbie, your point?

[Comikkaze]

"I believe the weather app works on cellular data" does that mean that it doesnt use internet and that I could use that awesome app (and amazing looking display that comes with all HTC phones, att versions included) without having a data plan or internet?

[Comikkaze]

I really need a job so I can pay for unlimited data plan on att and get internet for my new phone (even though I have to wait 6 months...) OH AND I CAN'T DECIDE ON A PHONE SO ATT CUSTOMERS HELP ME PICK A GOOD TOUCH SCREEN PHONE (THAT ISNT SAMSUNG UNLESS IT'S THE SOLSTICE,as that has the best version of TouchWIZ)

[a7xMCRdisturbed]

@Comikkaze im getting the Xenon, i'v heard its a great phone

[Comikkaze]

my friend has the Xenon and he likes it... but the screen is small and its sometimes hard to navigate

[Millahtime]

this guys so boring to listen to compared to noah

[mynosehurt]

FUCK!!! i want noah.

>:[

[bmd900]

sorry i think they said noah doesnt cover android any more :( they are letting other people review certain operating systems like blackberry etc.

[DBWZY]

nexus one!

[xTurnipTimex]

Im getting an iPhone 3gs for x-mas, can I see a comparison of that and the HTC touch diamond?

[nitrousboy0311]

You shouild wait for the google phone its sweet.

[richmond24]

diamond is way too small unless you plan on using the stylus for everything

[TheGogetassj]

no data, from VERIZON???

[MR9872]

Google Phone is HTC Bravo/ Passion/Dragon.

[emppanda]

he must be in a concrete box

[1doi3]

i dont like this dude

[MightyIronHead]

because I am on a plan with my parents and they wanted to switch

[MrG321123]

ahh are u from P-town !!!! =)

[XxBigRedxX]

HTC passion please for verizon.

[MightyIronHead]

of course once I switch from verizon to At&t a great android phone comes out, damn it , lol

[jesseboy2211]

@MightyIronHead hahaha

[zsmorr92]

Why did you switch to AT&T at all?

[simbot144]

What does that scope stand for ??

[starwarsandpie]

I like the button layout on the Eris WAY more than on the Hero, but I'll make do the with Hero.

[bigdawgandrewm]

its pretty much excactly the same lol, just less hard keys

[starwarsandpie]

I know that it's pretty much the same but I like the button layout better on this device, and who would negative my comment when I'm just speaking my opinion? Retards.

[bigdawgandrewm]

who knows, either way HTC makes the sexiest phone with the best features all around( Moto Droid exception). but has anyone realized that since the Orginal Hero, they just keep slightly changing the design??, i just that that was kinda funny

[PoetryRocksGadgets]

@bigdawgandrewm American companies do that with all HTC phones.

[bluntdude]

HTC make some good phones-outside of winmo that is lol

[K3v1nPr0]

htc aris? you hold up the droid lol

[hiazn69]

First of all, it's the HTC Droid Eris, not aris. Second, the reason it says droid is because it runs the android operating system. Look at the phone on the box. You get a post FAIL!

[xtenpeben]

It's called HTC Droid Eris, That's why the box said DROID. hmm... maybe you should do some research first. The Droid is a series of phones that verizon is releasing. Moto Droid is one of them and the one that is more promoted. HTC Droid Eris is their second phone on the lineup.

[TheExplodingcake]

its android silly

[baseballjmr]
