HTC Droid Incredible 2 - 4GB - Black (Verizon) Smartphone

The HTC Droid Incredible is a durable, beautiful, fast and powerful phone. The Incredible is a great example of the power that the Android OS has to offer. The phone is well built and the UI (User Interface) is very well organized and easy to use. Screen resolution is bright and clear. It boasts an 8MP camera to take high quality photos (You won't have much need for a separate digital camera anymore). It also has a built-in double LED flash for taking pictures or use as a flashlight. Speaker is clear and loud, making it great for playing your music or watching Netflix, Crackle, Youtube etc. The Google Play Store is easy to use and download from millions of apps and widgets. On the downside of things. The phone can really eat up the battery and on average lasted me only about 10 hours of normal use. You can get an extended battery or you can keep a car or wall charger handy. The phone has a lot of internal memory for apps and photos and can be expanded substantially to accommodate large media collections. All in all, this is a great phone and the things that I list that are negative are easily dealt with and are easy to overlook with all of the other great features. I highly recommend this phone.

Well this is a lovely powerful smartphone but it does have limitations. Also would like to point out to buyers that this phone is UNLOCKED not SIM FREE.Here lies a clear difference. Diference being an unlocked phone still contains the original bloutware (software0 installed which annoyingly you cannot remove. Sim free phones do not have any of these software that was originally installed closed to the network it was designed for. Other that that a lovely phone packed with loads of features.Battery life is pants, get yourself a decent more powerful replacement from ebay. I found the gold battery 2450mah and it works like a dream lasts 4 times x the original one. Would also like to advise users who buy this unlocked phone to install the TWEAKKER app to enable you to use the data internet connection. This app just places the settings all by itself. Save it in case you change sims, do the process all over again with a new network. Enjoy it!

I highly, highly recommend the android operating system and the HTC Incredible 2. This gadget replaces SO MANY things--it's a GPS. It's a movie camera. It's a nice quality still camera (8mp). The camera makes it a scanner for documents also. It's a guitar tuner. It's an mp3 player. Oh and it's a phone. It's a wordpress editor. It's a radio alarm clock that can wake you up to internet radio. It can put itself in silent/vibrate mode on a schedule you choose.

Now some of these things I rave about are from apps that can be gotten free or inexpensively on the android market. Everything fabulous. I got mine used. Brand new it would be just that much better. Mine is like new.

There are three significant problems with this phone. The radio is below par, I'm in NYC and rarely get a solid signal streght of more than poor two bars. I often see it jumping around from one to 5 bars. The power/on/off button on top is so recessed that it's difficult to press. The speakerphone quality and volume and poor and too low. If you read other reviews online you'll find others have said the same. Otherwise it's a great phone.

In my opinion this is a great phone. The screen is big and easy to see. I haven't streamed videos yet but the camera takes beautiful pictures. But I really just wanted a phone with global capability and that is the main reason I bought the phone along with the email accessibility for business.
