How long do you think GSM or CDMA will last? Once LTE gets coverage and faster speeds, it will all be data and VOIP.

As an ex-employee of Verizon I can only think about this and shake my head. HTC has had ICS ready since February, Q1 like they promised. Verizon just refuses to advertise any other phone including the Nexus devices and is too busy in a circle jerk with Motorola. the Razr gets all the accessories, and all the in store discounts. the Rezound crushes the phone in every category other than slimness. and battery life when compared to the MAXX.

That’s right, there’s no way, they were just talking about other phones, because we all know that VZW has to do their bloatware dance on all our phones, which we all know makes it a long drawn out process. And especially since the Inc4 is a top of the line phone right now.

Although I despise Verizon, no other carrier has their speed. I get on average 18mb/s on my rezound, its not overrated. Until another carrier can get close to that speed, I’ll keep lubing my ass to get raped by verizon.

I clarified below, unless it’s a Nexus or already rooted, ROMed, and unlocked, I won’t be buying it.

Because the Rezound has technically had ICS since February, and Verizon has turned it down every time. Shame on you, HTC…

Screw u htc your phones suck and I hope u fall out of business. Can’t give the rezound an ics update and I know the hell its not getting jellybean. This fall or winter im getting the next nexus, but if htc makes the next nexus hello iPhone 5 and I hated the iPhone but its better than an htc product. I hope android doesn’t choose htc for the nexus line. Also its not just verizons fault htc is just as responsible for the updates.

well HTC did state a few weeks ago that with their One series of phones they were gonna adjust the companies procedures and focus on high end devices with premier user interfaces and functionality . Unfortunately the incredible HD 4G LTE although beautiful phone is probably going to be banished from any further updating. it was too little late had Verizon not delayed the hell outta that phone it would’ve been out sooner. I’m convinced the poor Rezound that has been bastardized since release will NEVER see jelly bean except for XDA or others with roms. Verizon loves the sheep customers they have and cater to them . the actual power users who CARE whats on their phones are the ones who get hammered and screwed.

Mainly because HTC has had ICS officially since February and it has not been released. On Verizon, the only way to buy a phone is a Nexus or one that’s been hacked up.

I should have said a non-Nexus on Verizon.

Although I agree with your point that other networks have decent coverage, Verizon still has the best and most far-reaching coverage, especially for people that live in less-densely populated areas. If I ever get off of my work’s phone plan, then it will be prepaid GSM for me.

I love my Rezound, have had great experience. Been Running ICS since march. What I am done with is lame ass upgrades. My next phone is either going to be a nexus (HTC) or W8P (HTC) either way, I am done with slow ass updated phone.

Of course they didnt mention it. Its a Verizon Phone. I used to think Verizon was hands down the best but now Locking Bootloaders, Canceling our New every 2, Shared Data Plans, and
making us wait for Updates even for the same phone on different Carriers has made me understand what they are really about. Ive been tricked into buying and keeping my Bionic and now i cant upgrade or i lose unlimited data. As soon as my contract is over i will be leaving Verizon so i can get a G-Nex that will update on time not 4 months later. Peace Big Red, make your customers #1 instead of money and maybe ill stay.
