@XxMaddenFreakxX I suggest that you try a moment, something new for you. If you dislike it, then you could get a new Hero. It's your decision, but please take my advice into cosideration.
ugh I wish it was made from HTC so it would have HTC sence UI. Also Multi touch, more screens, better camera (even though it is pretty good), multiple touch keyboards (not many phones have this), bigger screen. That would be an iPhone killer. And as for the evo, there making it a higher monthly price. So that isnt even in the compeition.
@HorseProductions1 Yeah. You have to hold it in your hand, flip it, and wait for a few seconds & then a landscape keyboard will pop up on the screen :D Well, you have to be on the messaging screen but, whatever... You get it. Lol.
Hav y'all heard bout da moment 2........ if there is 1 I think it shuld ship wit 2.1 and hav a beta camera lik 5mg n 5 row qwerty keyboard n mayb a bigger screen n a front facin camera wuld b nice!!!!!
i honestly hate this phone............ i have it and i kinda regret getting it. i have the weather app thing on my front page and it says i live in niagara falls new york and i live in ohio......it also doesnt send text messages half the time...
i'm upgrading my phone and i'm not sure which phone i want. i'm debating on wether or not i should get the Rumor Touch or this phone. i like this phone a lot. i currently have the rant ( -_- i hate the rant ) , i've always wanted a touch screen. i text a lot and i like using the internet.
@gigglebot158 get to fucking moment ! you'll have thousands of apps at ur feet haha, the rumor touch wont have many apps, and a touch screen phone without apps gets tired very fast, just ask anyone who owns a lg vu haha
i have the samsung exclaim but i dont like it do you think if i gave it back to sprint they let me get this 4 the 2 year eligibillty price i havenyt had it long like 2 months
The battery dies very fast if you text a lot or get a lot of notifications. And one thing i hate about it is all of the default notification ringers are very quiet
i heard that the moment, is upgrading to 2.1 version like how the nexus one is, and its really nice! if i get sprint, im definately getting this phone!
how is the sound quality? is it loud and clear? also, is it possible to download ringtones from online sites such as those that you make yourself? can you set music files as ringtones? if you could answer these questions, i'd appreciate it.
i hav tha moment my frend has tha htc pro 2 tha moment 2 me iz better n i use 2 want tha pro 2 for mad long but themoment has way more apps iz 10 times faster prolly fastest fone out tha only thing tha pro has on tha moment iz mayb tha keyboard but wen i 1st got tha moment i got used 2 tha keyboard in 3dayz
wow um obviously I'm using abbreviations is that better for you? Since your commenting on my spelling how about you do the same to everybody else. the person whose question i answered was not spelling everything out either akeelah!
I have heard alot of people sway toward the htc touch pro 2..... now all of them are telling me they want to trade it for the moment. I have the moment and it so much better to me
please someone helpp. okay so when i textt it laggs. like the messaging. ill send a text and when someone responds it comes in like they sent the first text. like this is what they look like...
I had the hero and I had to being it back cause there is just way to much lag for the little 530mhz processer. The htc sense had somthing to do with that. I got the moment and it's 1000 times faster. Not as nice to look at but definitly faster with the 800mhz CPU in it. Keyboard rocks to.
i'm really concidering getting this phone sometime soon. is it worth it please tell me the pros and cons i would really appreciate it. please don't be ashamed to be Honest cause i really want this phone to be the last phone i get. thanks man:)
if U attach a video clip to a text message NOT email! But text message, how long must the video clip B 2 send?..if U can, could U test about a 50second or more clip..THANKS! ..O..5*'s
i can't decide between the samsung moment and the iphone 3gs ive heard the physical keyboard on the moment was not very good but was usuable..and the iphone 3gs was a better phone..so someone please help.. thanks! :)
PLZ HELP: Ok i purchased the moment and I love it but I have te problem of my phone cutting off randomly and I have to take the battery out for it to cut back on....wats wrong..ive takin the moment back once and got a new 1 but this 1 does the same thing..is it the apps or the phone?
seems to me like the spps but i may be wrong. i dont completely understand what you mean by "cutting off" do u mean shut down? like black screen? if so mine does that like 1 time ever 15 days or so but not very often its prolly from over heating or a internal malfunction
@MomentTipsAndTricks Somewhere I read that you should turn your phone off every few days or so that way it doesn't damage the phone, with it being on for so long. I've saved myself doing that... either that or I'm lucky :P
@bosniac6: No, you really get used to the space bar being between the letters. I have a Rumor right now (I just ordered the Moment today) but the rumor has the same keyboard (basically) and I don't even notice it. It just took me a couple of weeks to get fast at it. I mean, you couldn't use your thumb to push the space bar like on a regular keyboard anyways! haha
Great review... just have a few questions. I'm looking to get a new phone and I'm looking at the Moment and the Hero since they are set around the same price. I'm trying to find the most convenient phone for me. Does the Moment have word prediction?if it does can you add words to it? can you set different languages to the keyboard when you text?
The reason why I'm asking is because I text in Spanish as much as i do in English, so i would be more convenient for me.
I find it surprising you hate having only 3 home screens, my biggest annoyance with the sense UI is that it has 7 which just feels like too many. On my middle screen I have all my most used apps, on the left one I have a couple different folders (a games folder, a media one, ect), and on the right one i have a couple widgets that I need and thats it, thats fine for me.
how is the build quality? does the phone feel wiggly or move when you're touching and swiping the screen when the keyboard put away? that was pretty annoying with the pre, you'd feel the top layer move.
my opinion...it feels like a cheap toy from China (no offense intended). the keypad is different if you're use to HTC keypads. The Op system of course is great but I wouldn't pay over the $100 new customer price.
Question: I like my Blackberry b/c I can pick it up from a resting state, start typing a name, and it filters to the contact I want... I have 400 contacts. I played with the Hero but there are 3 button presses before you can search the contact list AND the portrait keyboard is too small. My question is: On the Moment if u pick it up, slide the keyboard open, and start typing what happens? Will it start searhing through contact list? Can u video the fastest way to find a contact via keyboard?
GREAT VIDEO!!!! All the other web reviews on this phone talk too general about features, you comment on the real world day-to-day uses of the phone. GREAT VIDEO....
Good Video. I have one question though, you know how it's on lock and all you have to do is just touch the menu or middle button or whatever well will it automatically unlock when the phone is in your pocket? Please Reply! Thnx :)
it's possible but the chances are very slim. you'd have to accidentally press the hard "end" button and then the 'touch' menu button while it is in your pocket.
It's fucking CAPACITIVE touch you dumbass. A capacitive touch screen uses the conducive nature of your skin to sense electrostatic changes on the surface of the screen. It has nothing to do with heat. Why do some of you douchebags post reviews when you don't even know what the fuck you are talking about?
Secondly, learn how to use macro mode on your fucking camera. What a waste of a "review".
the moment does not "push" pop 3 emails or facebook updates. it pulls, in other words you set how often it checks for updates, emails etc. true "push" means as soon as the email is received on the pop3 server you would receive it on your mobile.
It offers a form of push for corporate email accounts through moxier but i doubt many of us purchased the moment so we can check work emails.
Oh and one more question and i will leave you alone.. Can it have moving backgrounds? Lets say for example i want stars that change colors for my background... Can it do that or no?
have you played pandora on this phone and if you did how good does it work / also have you tried handcent sms and what made you pick this over the hero?
Can u download full songs for free and as much as i want?
