Default Next Phone

my contract ends in 5 days. I have a Curve 8330. It feels like a child's toy at this point.

What should be my next phone?

Are you familiar with Android?
HTC Evo 3D.... Just came out June 24th.
Glasses free 3D, 1.2 GHz dual core processor, 4G, qHD display.
It's a beast of a phone.

If you would rather stick to a Blackberry I suggest you wait for the Torch 9850, it should be out in August.

I had the Torch on ATT before switching to Sprint and I hated it. Just because I'm not a fan of touchscreens (others may like it). I have the Style on Sprint since December and both my husband and I love it. Great to flip it shut and no more accidental dials. It's my 6th Blackberry and I've got to say my favorite just because of the form factor.

I also have a Curve 8330, in which my contract expired almost a year ago now. If you like the Curve, then the new Bold Touch will probably be your best bet. It has the beloved Bold 9000 form factor with a full QWERTY keyboard in addition to the touch screen ability should make for a great phone. Also with the new processor, it should be, for us current 8330 users, like jumping from a scooter to a Corvette. But there is also the Torch 9850 rumored to be coming along side the Bold 9930 which will hopefully be a much improved Storm rendition of a full touchscreen with a virtual keyboard. Finally, there is also a Curve refresh rumored to be coming as well, but there are less details about when it will hit Sprint. The latest rumored dates have the Bold 9930 and the Torch 9850 dropping August 21st.

I myself as a 8330 user will more than likely go to the Bold 9930, but just wish I had the option of the Torch with the slide-out keyboard.

Also, here is the link to the leaked Sprint inventory sheet that shows the 9930 and 9850.

In my humble opinion there are two types of smartphone users....the ones that use Blackberry and the ones that use everything else. Stick with a Blackberry, they have the lowest percentage of problems and returns.
