Just walked into best buy today asked if they would price match amazon on the Maxx knowing they would say no and to my suprise they said yes. This phone rocks!!

From what I’m read though, Sense 3.6 isn’t way too different than 4.0 outside of the camera features (which are due to camera/hardware limitations in older phones) and some other minor aesthetic areas. It should have most of the functionality of Sense 4.0. Ideally though, it needs vanilla Android to run better =p.

It needs sense 4.0 with ICS like the One x, there really is no reason why the Rezound can’t handle it. and I know, They just want people to buy the One X, but should show those rezound owners some love

You might be able to upgrade. My friend got a D3 soon after it launched and was able to upgrade at Verizon to a Razr Maxx for $130 just last week. They sent him an e-mail saying he could upgrade early to a 4G phone. He is in northern IN if that makes a difference. I would at least call a local store and ask. I was amazed when he told me that.

Would you call the stock 2.3 ROM “buttery smooth” too? Because it’s considerably slower and laggier than my Galaxy Nexus (my wife has a Rezound so I play with it occasionally), esp. when scrolling/zooming on anything. I’m hoping the ICS update brings it up to speed with the Gnex.

You should really say that it’s for new customers only, I bought a Rezound on Monday and was just about to email Amazon about a price match. Then I realized the sale is for new customers only…

I wish they would let me upgrade my D3 and throw it in the trash and get the D4, or anything else honestly… Can’t believe I am stuck with this POS for another year.

I called to get a replacement for my sons Droid X, the screen went out on it. We then got talking about my bill and she told me that there was a promotion available to get an early upgrade if I got a 4G phone. So I upgraded my spare line that I use my original Droid on. I’m just hoping I like the Maxx as much as I do my Rezound!

I called yesterday and got an 5 month early upgrade and a FREE maxx, just for upgrading from a 3g phone and they wavied the upgrade fee for me too. They said it was some promotion that ends on the 5/31.

The Rezound is solid. I love mine, the latest leak of ICS is buttery smooth.

Yeah same here. And i would have probably then turned around and sold the bundled Beats earphones on CL or E-Bay and made $ on the deal!

I snoozed when it was on sale from Verizon for $50, minus my $30 upgrade discount (before the $30 renewal fee), I could have bought it for $20. I am kicking myself now.
