identical screens. no difference.

the only thing ive read is more ram. if it can game better, that is a definite plus since the Evo is hit or miss in that performance arena. tried running a n64 emulator and it was choppy...dunno how people in the market w/ Evo's say it runs smooth.

So, not to be the "battery life complainer". But I know I've messed up my battery from the start being as I was one of the people who hated to see it below 50% before I ever realized that it's better to let it get below 20% to get a full cycle charge.

That being said, I'm going to get a new battery. I've been looking around and I don't want a big battery, but from what I can tell there are quite a few aftermarket batteries that hold a bigger charge that still fit in the stock holding place with no changes to the phone. I know it's nothing crazy in charge difference, but I figured since I'm going to get a new one anyways I'd ask if anyone has bought/used a different/bigger battery.
I use and EVO so any help with that would be greatly appreciated.
 
How is the Atrix? I'm thinking of picking one up but not to sure.

Like Mook said the Motoblur stuff is pretty lame on it. That's how all Motorola Android phones are though. I banned that shit from my phone not even a few days after I got it. Also, the network is incredibly slow for 2 reasons: 1. AT&T way jumped the ball on the 4G network release. I thought that it would at least be semi decent but it's slow as balls right now. I'm sure it will speed up once the network is in full force but it's disappointing how much AT&T doesn't give a shit. 2. You can't turn off 4G and turn on 3G vice versa which in my opinion sucks. So when I don't have 4G it drops me straight down to the Edge network. :dnc:.

Other than that and the normal Android OS bugs that are expected from a first release phone, I love mine. The phone itself is really an incredible piece of technology. It's super fast and smooth and I can browse the web on it with ease just like a laptop. I wish I could have afforded the laptop dock but I can't swing the $500 for it. The fingerprint scanner is also cool as hell. It really works too, I let people try it out and some of them are amazed by it lol. The resolution is also incredible on it. You can get them now I believe with an upgrade for $130 on Amazon. I paid $200 for mine at AT&T and other than the slow network it was worth every penny.
