Add another one to the Droid family

**flybub** · 07-27-2010, 08:15 PM

I have been a blackberry user for about a year and my last device was a Storm2. It could have been a great device but after 6 replacements for issues I was offered a CPO Incredible from Verizon. I jumped all over that offer. This phone is, well...Incredible. This thing is much more advanced than my previous BB its almost laughable. Don't get me wrong BB's have a great reputation for keeping people connected, but the Incredible is a machine on so many levels. I don't see myself straying from an Android device anytime soon that is for sure.

I've heard of battery problems for the Incredible but mine is doing pretty well. I take mine off the charger at 6 am and around 8 pm it goes back on the charger with about 30% left, pretty close to what my S2 was. A great device and happy to be onboard with you all.

VZW will offer you a new equall device if you have gone through a certain amount of replacements within a short amount of time. They have done it for me before when I had the Storm 1. They offer me the Tour (right around when the Tour was the hottest BB device) and I said no. took another Storm1

Isn't that considered a multi-fru or something to that effect? I thought they stop doing that? Plus the OP said they gave him an Incredible. Aren't they on backorder?

I do need to mention that I went through 2 reps then finally a supervisor to get what I wanted. I told them to call me the next day with an offer on a different phone or I was jumping ship. So it was more of a demand lol. But seriously if u go through a couple replacements in a short amount of time it never hurts to ask for a different phone.

Best of both worlds.

You'll like the android side even though the crackberry still has a tight grip. Ive switched back and forth, but mostly towards my Droid. Good Luck!

no they deff are still doing it, i had a replacement for my storm also. As OP said, if you demand it through CS, it usually works in your favor.

Just purchased a Droid Incredible. Now I have the best of both worlds~Blackberry(S2) & Android (Droid Incredible). This will hold me over until my next upgrade in 07/11.
