Tour vs. Incredible - I have both
Ok guys, just hoping for some input and to see if anyone else is in the same situation. I have the Tour which I have loved since I got it (a few trackball problems but not a big deal). I then got the Droid because my wife kept talking about how much she loved hers. Well I personally hated the feel of that big clunky touchscreen beast. I traded it in on the Incredible as soon as it launched and I have to admit, there are so many things I love about the Incredible. It is super fast, has a great camera, super sexy look, you know, you've seen and heard all of that. What keeps me thinking about my Tour though, is the physical keyboard. Granted, on a good day, I can type just as fast on the Incredible's virtual keyboard as I can the Tour. However, when doing so, I get no enjoyment out of typing an email, or texting, etc. It seems more like a job typing on the virtual compared to the physical keyboard of the Tour. I like the feel of the physical keyboard and actually feel like I am accomplishing something. Yes I have tried the haptic feedback on the Incredible and that does seem to help, but it drains its already weak battery even more.
Also, when I want to check my messages quick or reply to someone quick, the Tour is so much easier. You can just hit any button, and it be up and running and in the message in a second. The Incredible you have to press the power button, then slide the screen unlock then click on message, etc. As much as the Incredible can do and is so awesome at, I still wonder if I am just a Blackberry guy. Yes I get online and check social sites, and I take pictures and play games. BUT - I text and email much more than I do all of those things. I have found myself switching my service back and forth from my Incredible to my Tour 3-4 different times now. I am starting to feel insane.
I wish it was easy and these devices did 2 different things I needed like if the Incredible was an Ipod or something. That way it would be obvious I needed the Tour as a phone but still needed the Incredible. However, this isn't the case. It has to be one or the other, and I cannot decide! Anyone else run into this?????
