wow that browser seems really annoying compared to the iphone.. and not as 'optimized'. on the iphone, the internet appears as it should be, on this all it shows is basic html, no css, no java. also when you scroll through on the touch screen it doesnt seem smooth like the iphone. There are no finger gestures on the voyager, as there is on the iphone, like pinch, stretch, double-tap.
The Voyager is NOT a smart phone which means you have to pay extra a month for the GPS,web browser,Vcast,and anything else that the regular plan doesn't include.The iPhone is software upgradeable while the Voyager is not.Which brings out that Apple can always send an update to have the iPhone to receive 3rd party software,fix bugs,add software and many more. The iPhone has a built in8GB while the Voyager can handle up to8GB, you'll have to spend minimum of $100+to get a SM card.Get the iphone!
nope. been trying to and keeps telling me that i need to update flash. and since i can't download flash onto the phone it is no good. the internet capability is not really good. i wanted to try and log onto youtube but nothing happens.
I do understand that others may prefer the iphone over the Voyager but my preference is the Voyager(because of things such as its touch response and the large keyboard), so there is no need to bash the iphone or the voyager or those who side with one or the either ( or neither).
Because the Voyager is with Verizon its rare to find a non-coverage area. Also the iphone has a tendency to slow down, or freeze. The Voyager has yet to display anything like that.
For those who are saying that the Voyager is an rip-off from the iphone, you should know that the Prada was the first touch-screen phone, not the iphone.
the iphone, but the Voyager was with my network. AT&T isn't as great as a network as Verizon and while some may think that just because the iphone is compatible with wifi, that it makes the internet great. It doesn't, and its not easy finding a coverage area.
I have verizon and trust me I thought the Ipod touch was going to kill my feelings for wanting the Iphone. But instead i was pissed off i couldnt text or call someone
oh Im against the iphone i like verizon the iphone is way too much and im telling people not to switch there plans to crappy companys for one phone so to get an ipod touch
Hmm... well, the browser seems okay, it's serviceable... I hear complaints of the browser being so slow to load up but what from what I see from this video, I can live with that....
the thing about verizon is they dont have unlimited txt but for 20 dollars a month you can get 5000 txt and for 15 dollars you can get 1500 txt. so you would either pay 35 or 30 dollars extra with the unlimited web acces
Actually yes they do. I was in a Verizon store the other day. They have a Select Plan which gives you Unlimited texting and what not to anyone on any network and then they have a Premium Plan which gives you Unlimited Texting, Unlimited VCAST Music and TV, Unlimited Web Access, VZW Navigator and more. If you go with select make sure you remember that Verizon will charge you per megabyte you use for the web.
And don't let the reps try to tell you, that you can only do $30 per additional phone and not $9.99. You must have one phone on the Premium and then the 2nd line and more you can put on the select.
The phone's internal menu navigation seems very snappy. Nice!
Does the Voyager emulate the iphone browser in that when you turn the phone the orientation of the browser and its size change to fit the phone's orientation?
I did a quick hands-on review of the phone yesterday. Nice unit. Very fast menus and easy to get around!
The web can be slow. The menu is a nice change for Verizon phones.
Shame it does not have outer speakers! You have to hear a speaker phone conversations with the phone open or you won't hear anything. that's not good IMO.
Speaker phone conversations are not very loud, however the phone sounds and music seem to be. ???
if you get the premium plan starts @ $79.99 it has unlimited web browsing, navigation, texting,videos,etc with 450 minutes...good deal! I have a friend who got an iphone and i got this voyager..the voyager can connect faster online...i promise!!
AT&T's is $59.99 with the same thing you just said except text and the iPhone is no doubt the best thing on this market and im not being a "fanboy" about it im just telling you the facts.
actually people, the voyager was made before the iphone, but the iphone was released first so that they could fix up things that people didn't like about the iphone. so stop saying that it's a copycat phone.
No wifi...bummer nd i thnk u do hav 2 pay for the internet but i think they hav plans for tht and the mobile tv...but all i kno is tht im getting on fri.
I am getting a Voyager ....only because i have verizon. If the cancelation fee wasnt so much .... i would go to Cingular/ At&t because the Iphone is definetly a better phone
first off, i love lamborghinis. i have a love for car. and the voyager is the prius of the phone worlds. its fat, ugly, not many feature and is a wanna-be iphone. the iphone is sleek, curvy, function and fun to use, like a lambo
why does that really matter. i know it was a lame analogy. but i still think the iphone is better and has more features. p.s. just got a look at the reventon at the la auto show opening night
The analogy wasn't lame, you missed the point. I wasn't analogizing the usefulness of the Lambo and Kia, I was illustration the ignorance in a persons uninformed opinion/statement. I have a Iphone and Ive handled the Voyager and its a better phone overall, the iphone is more fun to play with but has less useful features. PS Lambos are better!
Here are the features: Removable battery, GPS, faster G3 network, 2nd internal screen, full QWERTY keyboard, multimedia messaging, upgradable sd memory,mobile Tv, auto focus camera, camcorder, insurable, vibe touch, bluetooth printing,stereo bluetooth, bluetooth for dialup, bluetooth wireless sync, dual Stero speakers, text to speech, reinforced outer touch screen, voice dialing, comfort grip, voice recorder/conversation recorder,
uhhh dude, the helio ocean has everything that you listed EXCEPT the 2nd internal screen, mobile TV, vibe touch, text to speech, and outer touch screen.
What you listed are alot of differences plus helio ocean doesn't have a Full Qwerty keyboard,image editor, Auto-Focus lenses, up to 8 gig memory card (ocean only up to 2gigs), plus alot more smaller details, but the helio ocean is a nice phone, but side by side the Voyager kills the Ocean.
Yes, myspace, facebook, youtube, Just like the regular internet. My friend at the verizon store got on in 4 days ago and I messed with it, I'm selling my Iphone as soon as I get my own.
God this phone is terrible. The env touch is a thousand times bettter than this.
