@DoinUrMom991 It's not an easy choice. The Lumia 710 is faster though the HTC Radar by no means slow. The Radar wins for its metal casing and mobile hotspot feature, while the Lumia 710 wins for having replaceable battery and being faster.
@MobileTechReview biggest disappointments for me with the Lumia 710 is the absence of wifi-tethering (which you never mentioned when reviewing that) and it only supports micro-SIM cards. i live in the Philippines where the HTC Radar is the only WP7 device available since LG stopped shipping the Optimus 7. an open-line unit costs about $430 and we do have a carrier that has unlimited inter-carrier texts+calls for $8 a month and unlimited 3G Internet for $18 a month.
@paolylo We mentioned the lack of WiFI mobile hotspot for the Lumia 710 in our full written review. We do ask our viewers to check out our full review.
@zheLL1407 my husband has the g2x.. hes and android fan so he loves it.. and getting all the free games/apps is a plus with mobilism and blackmart and applanet.. better download all you can before those get permanently banned.. i got the radar.. and i love it.. i have about 30 games so far and 10+ apps and the app store constantly keeps growing.. its up to 60,000 apps now.. and i have no lag at all.. guess it all depends on what you like..
hi, me and my mother would be getting new fones this saturday, and I am torn between this and Samsung Galaxy, the reason I want to get this is I am more of a mid range device type of user, my only concern is the storage, and if there's no slot for extra storage that would suck, I really like what they did on this fone but I am torn, help?
@gabekarl82 Look at the content you need to put on the phone and see how big they are in size, it might give you a clearer idea how much space you need.
ok so ive been searching for a good phone so i dont really like the window phones , with the window screen and stuff so whats a phone that doesnt have those features that you would recommend
I like HTC phones but i always find that the removable covers at the bottom start creaking after a while. My Mozart did it, and my brothers Legend. Creaking is one thing that drives me nuts. This of course is in my own experience and not necessarily ALL of them.
ZunePass is $9.99/mo for unlimited streaming and downloads. Unfortunately, they no longer offer the $15 plan that allows you to keep 10 tracks per month. Fortunately, I already had that plan, so they let me keep it.
Hey I kno the face behind the voice now and what's up with the cat lol but other than that the cat out the bag on who is the greatest phone reviewer is You Lisa nice job thought like always I look to see if there's new videos everyday
@lafifsta Yeah, well, many people avoid showing their faces on YouTube... and for good reason, if you're not Jessica Alba or bloody David Beckham, you're going to get much hate about your aspect... You can only show your face when you've been doing videos for a long time and you have a very consistent audience that likes you, like Lisa, or the Yogscast... But even then you can fail, one guy from Pocketnow got a lot of hate for showing his face, thankfully, hating stopped after a while.
The more I look at the Radar, the cheaper it looks to me. Like they spent just five bucks making it, the materials look cheap. And I don't like the way you can't take the back off of it.
@zethca We'll be shooting a video review of the GSM/HSPA+ version of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus tomorrow! Stay tuned. And the Verizon version with LTE will come when Verizon's ready.
A Samsung Galaxy Nexus vs. Samsung Galaxy S11 Smackdown would also be interesting, although I'm not sure if it would be a good comparison considering the Nexus has the new Android OS Icre Cream Sandwich.
1) aluminium unibody is useless..it only increases the price of the device..they could hve a better CPU & use normal metals with that price.
2)screen size to device size ratio sucks..i mean c'mon ..jst look at the waste of space on phone's chin..its looks weird..samsung is better n professional..its focuses on functionality rather than fancy stuff.
3) just 49$...now why the hell would any1 pay more n get less feature & power!!
The apps are really the killer of any of these windows phones for me. When your already knee deep in Android and all its many versions its a hard justify jumping into another ecosystem.
All things said though it is a pretty solid phone. Microsoft did a good job, but with another Android device waiting in the mail (Kindle Fire) I don't think I can bite on another "bag of chips" so to speak.
