Motorola Photon 4G Unboxing!

[techuniverse1]

@Jkr4Evr Photon 4G

[OhSohPro]

Some of the software features.

[mikemul18]

Wait for lte and galaxy nexus people :)

[Soro95]

Size comparison with evo?

[dragonista2000]

jon, when are you going to do the next video for the photon?

[bluber890]

hopefully the price will drop wen my upgrade comes

[klolikewhoa]

@bluber890 you have other options besides Sprint, I never upgrade through them. Best Buy mobile price matches to any retailer, but sometimes they aren't the cheapest. You have wirefly.com and letstalk.com, and of course bestbuy.com

[dragonista2000]

so jon did you like the phone?

[Jkr4Evr]

This, Evo 3D, or HTC Arrive?

[Tu51ndBl4d3]

uglist phone ever

[ChuroScuro]

Is the reviewer wearing camera goggles or something? 3:53

[stopxthisxfall]

@ChuroScuro His face is behind the viewfinder

[AcyBaby704]

I just got the Phonton two days ago i love the phone over my evo but i hate motos overlay over andriod so i am running the spb shell 3D launcher fixed all my promblems lol

[Ricenugget]

I want a smartphone tasty sandwich...

[xshootertilidie]

That striptease made me laugh so hard. Hahaha

[srivasvivaz]

Motorola Photon 4G Vs HTC sensation 4g?

[MrFantomas45]

@srivasvivaz Motorola Photon 4G, It depends what carrier your in

[srivasvivaz]

@MrFantomas45 No, WHat about Unlocked Versions?

[MrFantomas45]

@srivasvivaz How do you mean

[srivasvivaz]

@MrFantomas45 I mean The Performance, The UI and the Hardware? I can get them both Unlocked, So carriers are not an issue

[MrFantomas45]

@srivasvivaz Motorola Photon 4G is your answer

[soladetenis]

which one is better, the motorola photon 4g, or the htc evo 3d 4g?

[somedirtyangel]

@soladetenis Good question, I have the Photon, I like it, but Motoblur can be a pain, or was, before updates. HTC with their Sense launcher is amazing. My girlfriend has the Evo and even though my phone is much newer, I am a bit jealous.

[MrFantomas45]

@soladetenis Theres an HTC Evo 3D and HTC EVO 4G, Don't know which one your talking about.

[soladetenis]

@MrFantomas45 hahah yeaa I see, I didnt know much about those phones when I wrote this comment, but it's ok, thanks I was talking about the HYC 3d

[formber]

It really bugs me how all these phone reviewers never put the back covers back on the phone correctly! Geezaloo! It's not that hard!

[password8866]

THE MAIN FEATURE THIS PHONE HAVES THAT NOT MANY ITHER PHONES HAVE IS THAT IT HAVES A 16GB INTERNAL STORAGE SO NO SD CARD NEEDED BECAUSE I HAD AN ANDROID AND SOMEHOW I COULDEDN SAVE NOTHIN TO MY SD CARD

[marineexpert5]

WINNER-best sprint phone 2011

[MrPorksoda555]

good thing i went to radio shack and they showed me this phone i was going to get the htc evo 4g but never mind this phone is better by far.

[antimax100]

Wow I just got the EVO and I'm rly mad

[SHIFT2WIN1]

Soooo what happened to the photon 4g review?

[HunayyHunkapoo]

@peekahpooh that was the stupidest question ever. if you have a phone, you would know sprint doesnt have sim cards.

[tonythetiger122]

@HunayyHunkapoo

Actually this phone does have a sim for international use only. Maybe you shouldn't have an opinion without knowing the facts jack.

[foreversoccer98]

@HunayyHunkapoo its a world phone so it has a sim card. god watch the video again if you didn't pay attention

[peekahpooh]

@HunayyHunkapoo

This phone has a sim card slot idiot.

[danielgartin6993]

Cool!

[peekahpooh]

If u put a Tmobile or ATT simcard into the phone. will it work? please reply!

[aliarham213]

@peekahpooh I'm trying to figure out the same thing. I think you have to root it first?

[MarquaviousDForce]

If this was on Verizon Wireless it would be 250 dollars they are way to crazy on their prices i will never go to verizon

[RangerTW1]

Motorola is now whit google! Just to let you know!

[somedirtyangel]

@RangerTW1 Yes! I've been hearing from a little birdy that they could possiably have something new out in the next two years...oooo! Can't wait!

[samcho24]

im sorry... noah and everyone else on technobuffalo are aite... but jon's unboxings are still the best and the most entertaining to watch...

[unkutwednesday1]

@tro581 The motorola photon is way better.

[marisameagan]

Wow guys...Fighting through comments on a YouTube video about a phone? You have officially reached a new low.

[408sandshark]

show the dial pad for calling...

[MiniSaad]

It dosn't have Antartica :( (im a polar bear )

[adib43029]

I thimk this is winning my upgrade challenge unless HTC. Comes out with a better phone

[santosluvsapril]

@adib43029

i am with u on that one...i got an evo 4g and i love it and since ive got it i got used to the sense UI and of course the 4.3" screen..its been hard to find a worthy phone to upgrade to and i agree...i will most likely get the photon unless HTC comes out with a TRUE successor to the EVO and not a gimmicky phone like the EVO 3D

[JEEPOFFROADV8]

@santosluvsapril lol now thats funny. gimmiky? if that helps you sleep at night man haha. i skipped the first evo cuz of the shitty screen adreno200 gpu. and after i compared, i got a evo 3d. and it has been by far the best phone i have owned. sense3.0 is amazing new dual core snapdragon is the best dualcore chip out right now. the 3d part i didnt buy it for but let me tell u first hand that i love being able to watch a 3d movie if i want to. its such a cool bonus.

[Enellz]

Great phone, just brought mine Friday.

[amdemand]

review please

[jovanSR3]

2 weeks later something better is coming out.

[james123428]

i would love to see the review of this because my phones due for an upgrade and i cant decide between this or the evo 3d

[gundamnduke0]

@james123428 godamit, just w8 for like 2-3 more months for the nexus prime, u wont dissapoint!

[collector96]

@gundamnduke0 Dude awesome comment. the nexus prime is gunna own everything.

[Johbrownn]

@nadimsyed313 the motorola photon is way better then the epic4G.

[lovedaniel15]

1 bar

[nadimsyed313]

Do you think the Photon is better than the Epic? I am currently thinking of buying either one so i need to know which is better

[jhood1919]

Which is better this or an atrix or g2x on prepaid

[abdulla96]

What's the difference between a world phone and an unlocked phone?

[lonelyboy323]

im so sorry to say but this phone sucks,its like having an evo 4G there's No big Deal about it Just get the evo 3D

[Oooze]

@lonelyboy323 not true at all the specs on this are amazing compared to that

[collector96]

@lonelyboy323 are you kidding me? So youre saying that since it doesn't have 3d its not that big of a deal? 3d iis a gimmick. These specs kill the evo 4g and id take this tegra 2 dual core over snapdragon on the 3d aany day. What a shitty comment you noob

[lonelyboy323]

@collector96 the processor is way better on the EVO 3D this phone is a piece of crap wanna be EVO 4g

[collector96]

@lonelyboy323 Thats debatable buddy. How is this a wannabe evo 4g? as far as im concerned these specs KILL the evo 4g..so does the software.

[JEEPOFFROADV8]

@lonelyboy323 agreed! tegra 2 is way overrated. the new dualcore snapdragon and adreno220 in the evo3d is tops right now.

[JEEPOFFROADV8]

@collector96 really buddy? tegra 2 is overrated it does not handle hd video that well sorry. the new dualcore snapdragon is a monster! read up man. the photon might be cool. but i would take my evo 3d any day over it. the 3d part is a bonus to a great phone.

[collector96]

@JEEPOFFROADV8 Yea I'll be honest the Snapdragon is a beast..and I love the 3d...I know you're going to side with the 3d but lonelyboy323 really thinks the photon 4g is just like the evo 4g?

[JEEPOFFROADV8]

@collector96 the photon kills the first evo no comparison. dont get me wrong i love the photon and as far as gaming tegra 2 is awsome. couldnt go wrong with either photon or evo 3d. i wasnt going to buy the 3d at first im not big on 3d. but its a very cool phone without the 3d part. the 3d has grown on me thou.

[collector96]

@JEEPOFFROADV8 Yea see so you agree with me that lonelyboy323 doesnt know what the hell he's talking about saying the photon is nothing more than the evo 4g...thank you! And yea I agree dude both 3d and photon are awesome.

[11uxie11]

so cute when Jon said 'piewwww' at 3:55 XD

[soccerHEROking]

I have the shift 4g do u think this would be a good upgrade

[xray174]

this phone can record 1080p not 720

[Tu51ndBl4d3]

Why does EVERY freaking company have no aesthetic sense. this phone looks like crap, i mean seriously, hu designs these phones??? no i am not an iphone lover, i HAD AN IPHONE, CHANGING IT TO 3D BUT EVEN SO i WISH THEY LOOKED NICE, my iphone was beautiful, just saying, lmao.

[Skidmarkish]

is this basically a Droid bionic but just on sprint?

[4tusito]

FOLLOW THESE STEPS 1. COVER YOUR MOUTH WITH YOUR HAND 2. WHISPER A WISH INTO YOUR HAND 3. POST THIS ON TO TEN OTHER COMMENTS 4. NOW LOOK AT YOUR HAND

[theemohartbarker1]

your mum tits

[tro581]

should i get a HTC Arrive or Motorola Photon?

[laisCOOL24]

quick question is wirefly.com a reliable place to buy a phone from???

[gaphoogys]

@laisCOOL24 i guess so. I looked up on the WOT Ratings, and all of the are dark green, which is the best. so i suppose so. but some reviews did mention that customer service isn't that good. hoped i help

[laisCOOL24]

@gaphoogys yea thanks a friend of mind said it was pretty good also.

[1TuBeR09]

I think sprint has the most impressive lineup of android phones

[theshiznut]

badumpum pshewwww

[TripleThreatCeo]

my roomate has a 3d...i have then photon...is been a few days and im gettin shitted out with the speed of the 3d compared to this photon...looks like im gonna have to use my 30 day warranty

[Tu51ndBl4d3]

@TripleThreatCeo ...call it the evo 3d, just saying 3d sounds retarded, call me a troll, im just saying

[alips94]

the box looks like a shoe box...

[TechExpressTV]

Hey everyone! Check out my tech channel! Subscribe too please!

[MrUntouchable2010]

Hey Jon, When the hell is 4G coming to South Jersey.. Ask Sprint that bombshell question...

[SurajOnTheBeat]

the box is white and yellow white and yellow white and yellow white and yellow! :D

[keke5931]

wat is the name of that other phone lg wat?

[shagoat]

what would you recommend this or evo 3d

[mattmanmovies]

@shagoat evo 3d

[blekdregen]

@shagoat samsung galaxy s 2 :) if not evo 3d

[d1789]

motorola should have used the lock screen from the droid 3 on this... looks much nicer n doesnt have that lil delay effect

[JJiG]

Is this Sprints version of the Bionic?

[mbaseballpro2]

at&t needs a gingerbread phone

[Androidfanboy4201]

Turn on Closed Captions and go to 4:52. Then thumbs up.

[cMarshallGo]

LOL, not Motoblur is call M.A.P. (Motorola Application Platform).

[Luiz8745]

aw man i didnt watch this because i was to busy playing with my phone....

[chickenby]

I'd like to see the widget set and settings. Maybe even the market since they differ between phone. Maybe mire in depth on " not moto blur" lol

[MrSkittleBiscuit]

Now that Motoblur is out of the picture, Motorola is a much more reasonable option. I wouldn't dare get the droid 2, droid x cuz motablur was evil.

[MrSkittleBiscuit]

oh god jon don't striptease us! So tempting.

[DavidWood17]

@MrSkittleBiscuit Your name is MrSkittleBiscuit? Wow..

[MrSkittleBiscuit]

@DavidWood17 yes it is. no shame...

[irManu28]

with the new atrix update there almost the same

[zinkscott]

I kinda like the look of it

[Nick281051]

It's phaser not photon

Sent from a trekkie

[Gmod10man]

@Nick281051 Its photon. it says it on the box......

[AndroidsEatApples]

The old school screen blip is very unique. Love it.

Phone looks nice. good job Motorola. (And Jon for the video)

[JantarDentelle]

I like the shape of the phone, not a moto fan though!!

[Jerddd2]

u didnt compare the size of the photon with the iphone4? first

[AirwavesStudios]

Of Course the Photon is out even though i'm still waiting on the goddamned Bionic.

[Coolionessification]

The map on the front of the box doesn't even have New Zealand on it *dissapointed head shake*

[MassacrMan]

@Coolionessification Doesn't have the UK either...

[MrThingamagig]

@Coolionessification In America *dissapointed head shake* is known as *Shaking my head* or SMH. But I agree with you...

[kkdj123456789]

@Coolionessification yeah weel it doesn't have madagascar, england, scandinavia, greenland etc.

[Kilmonjaro117]

Ok I have 2.3 on my DROID x2 wtf is my tv screen turn of animation? Lol

[KWKnapps]

Does this have 1GB of RAM?

[TheXeonShock]

Sweet, unlockable phone for t-mobile? :)

[Lshs2013]

@TheXeonShock nope you can't

[TheXeonShock]

@Lshs2013 aww? dang. so stuck on spring, even though with a sim card?

[MyMatesAMac]

its phaser not photon

[joejc07]

@MyMatesAMac says who?

[MyMatesAMac]

@joejc07 maybe the people who created them.... :/

[joejc07]

@MyMatesAMac why does it say photon on the box?

[MyMatesAMac]

@joejc07 I'm talking about phaser and star trek created them.

[danielholgaard]

Damn this phone is sh*t ugly.

[Jhowe1997]

@SidCalibur LTE I think it's a network like 3G and 4G Internet speeds.

[bobtamin]

Can you put this up against the Motorola Atrix 4G on AT&T and see if it works on the Atrix's laptop dock as well. Thanks Jon

[Judahmangi]

Jon, what happens if you break a review unit? Have you ever broken one before?

[G33kyAli]

@Judahmangi nothing really, the Personal Relations peeps understands if that happens, but if you make it a habit, then they might stop sending.

Noah said that.

[Koolaiddewz]

@Judahmangi

it doesnt have Japan either, and i'd say thats of a bit more prominence in the world

[Judahmangi]

Photons... on stun. It's phasers! Also, the kickstand and the way it turns on are reason enough I would want this phone over the Evo 3D.

[sweetdreamstoall]

i like this phone my question is, since it got the sim card in the back, like the bberry bold 9650, dose it have arabic language in it?

[bvcl2432]

I can jack off at 1080p as well.

[bvcl2432]

My cock is a photon.

[xTemptationZz]

@bvcl2432 Congratulations; 4.3. You must be so proud of yourself. I bet you can jerk off in 720p too huh?

[Ballaboy2523]

lame review, good phone

[razblack]

wow, the interface (like iphone), looks fresh out of 2005.. congrats!

[MarkZombie23]

does it have LED notifications?

[stunnedAC]

Why did they play a t-mobile ad right before this video? Can you say #cockblock

[thecityboy781]

no 3D niice

[busterswordslash]

Aron from phone dog says that Motorola is calling the new MOTOBLUR motorala's applications platform.

[1234muhd]

When this phone for Release in Singapore?

[acemasterJB]

Jon u sounded like a real Phone Pedophile in the unboxing there.(PR People BEWARE)

[Blacksidez]

this guy has way to much money o.0

[tabasco411]

@Blacksidez He doesn't buy his phones it is a testing contract that Techno Buffalo has with the phone people

[CollinCapone]

So this comes with a sim card? I thought sprint didn't do sim cards? Could this phone be unlocked and work for Virgin Mobile?

[jlaer3]

@CollinCapone no because vm doesn't use sim cards.

The phone has global capabilities which require a sim for the gsm,

[CollinCapone]

@jlaer3 Thanks :)

[SidCalibur]

@jon4lakers what is LTE

[DjBrieon]

@TibsterNumber13 check yo inbox BOOM!!!

[Jhowe1997]

Another great video. Have u seen the latest stuff on the next iPhone. Looks cool. It would be great if u could do a rumour round up on it. Thanks.

[Metroidam11]

I love the song that you use at the end of the videos. I can't help but my nod my head to the beats every time I hear it!

[abtean]

How do u make the screen turn off like the old tvs at 3.54 on my sensation?

[TheArnabDas]

nice review though.

[TheArnabDas]

fugly!

[bereberebere1995]

now i can put htc sense roms on one more device:)) just love rooting:D

[MrFantomas45]

AT&T has the fastest 3G network.

Sprint has the fastest 4G network.

Verizon plans suck and coverage.

[MrBOBWAZHERE]

@MrFantomas45 ? Are you high?

[MrFantomas45]

@MrBOBWAZHERE I never got "high" or never will. but the question is, are you?.

[MrBOBWAZHERE]

@MrFantomas45 hahaha (:

[kooljosue]

this phone is great but it takes a while to charge

4 g lte is very expensive :(
