Is it just me or did RIM steal the design of the Blue Angel for the BB 9930?

LOL, so true. Soon Apple will be suing us for the air we breathe if were near an iPhone.
LMAO
They really look similar.
Ya know, just because the BlackBerry is high profile and the Samsung is not, you shouldn't implicitly bash the BlackBerry and just let Samsung get away with it.

It isn't a matter of comparing all the pda slider styles out there. I just thought that this BB looks remarkably similar to the BA. The Samsung phone you are taking about, even though it is a slider, it doesn't look like the BA that much.

The Samsung and the HTC phone both have keyboards with a curved layout. They keys on each row are concaved upwards on both phones.
The Samsung and the HTC phone both have tactile D-pads.
The Samsung and the HTC phone have a more curved bottom than the BlackBerry.
The Samsung and the HTC phone both have multi-row function buttons, unlike the BlackBerry.
All three of these phones have some similarities to each other.
I still think that the HTC Blue Angel looks more like the Samsung SCH-I730 than it does for the upcoming BlackBerry.
To say that the i730 does not look like the Blue Angel would mean that the BlackBerry definitely does not look like the Blue Angel.
The individual key designs on the phones are all very distinct from each other.
They also have major differences; for example, the Samsung has a protruding aerial antenna, the HTC has buttons on top and a circular speaker grille, while the BlackBerry has that inwardly-sloped chin. These are all unique qualities.
Having said all that. Yeah you are right the Blue Angel doesn't look like the Samsung.......
Seriously though, the Blue Angel is more similar to the SCH-I730 than the BlackBerry.
yeah yeah... where else could that qwerty could be??? maybe when the BB use a qwerty slider aside... from left or right... it will be same as.... almost all HTC devices with qwerty
Where else could it be??? upper sliding???

I personally love my ladies touch
Definetly Universal!
It´s not a new model, but not always the newest is the best
VGA big screen, fast processor, full keyboard.
It´s the best at least now
Cheers
i think the best one is the one that has the software you need. it isnt nessesarily how fast the car is, but the driver.
I love my wizard. everyonce in a while I see one come along that I drool over... untill I see how limited the oem software is.
although I kinda wish I had the euro kaiser. the one with the camera in the front (skype)
HTC Touch Diamond
If my touch dual had a FULL Qwerty, then I'd say the touch dual.
Universal all the way
Due to my work I get to work and play with all of your devices and at the moment have all the HTC models up to Universal right here in my toy box, starting with Smartphone edition. I always go back to Universal, despite the size. NOTHING beats that device. From time to time I put my SIM into something else just to keep the button/usage familiarity up to date, but each and every time I feel I miss my Uni too much to part with it for more than a day. JMTCW.

I owned an ATT tilt/kaiser for a month and sold it out of complete spite over it's lack of.. well.. everything. I reverted back to my mda/wizard and have not looked back. The wizard does far more and IMO is the best phone from HTC. unfortunately it's not 3G so i will probably go blackberry when tmo 3g gets to california. It's not worth the money for a 3g phone that i can't play doom or watch movies on (stupid tilt). 2 thumbs up to the wizard.
Have owned a Tytn, a Touch, a Kaiser, and now have a HP 614c, and for me it's the best one.
A Diamond is Forever

it's spam - the links providing swimming pool equipment... ban this guy, all his posts are spam
The Diamond is really nice. That's my next pda.
Isn't the upcoming raphael a diamond with a slide out qwerty? that ought to be nice
My Super TyTN (X01HT) with 1 month standby, see how it towers over the competition
After using any device Verizon has that is worth buying, I'm going to say the Touch/Vogue/xv6900. Lightweight, lots of memory (storage and RAM), I really like to flat and smooth screen (makes it easier to swipe the screen). Only two pieces missing on it are no Wi-Fi, and no flash on the camera, but I have an unlimited data plan and rarely pull out the phone to take pics in the dark, so my vote is the Touch!
Dont know but definitely NOT xda stealth which I have......
To my surprised. Diamond has a twin brother, and his name is Victor.

No word yet if Victor comes with Micro SD card.
They are the same apart from the casing, just different ODM/OEM version for different markets
The Victor looks like the T-Mobile MDA Compact IV varient
Indeed but they have different structure of hardware keys (between HTC & T-Mobile).
Yes, that are swapped! i wonder why?
I guess we shall never know...
I prefer the Touch Diamond - it looks more interesting.
i like more touch diamond, it´s more fashion
I prefer the rounded aspect of HTC VICTOR
Have a look at the T-MOBILE one

Well, in the demos I've seen, people have smashed it against things, and it hasn't shown any signs of damage. I think it's designed for rough use - it has toughened glass protecting the screen, for example...
The bit that will scratch is the back as there are only a few points it rests on, when it vibrates it will move along the desk / counter / surface it’s on, and therefore scratch the back.
That problem shouldn’t be as bad on the T-mobile variant. Also the T-Mobile variant is a lot more understated. Think Dell XPS vs Dell Precision laptops. Same innards but ones for the gaming market with flashing LEDs the other for business.
At the end of the day though no point in arguing, as everyone has a choice just go for what you prefer the most.
The victor is the cdma diamond afaik.
EDIT: yep i was right. pic attached.

Wouldn't that just wear down the few points that it rests on though? That would reduce scratching, as most of the surface is not in contact with anything. My Touch rests on just two small lumps near the bottom of the back and a single point further up the back (I suspect it's some part of the camera) and it has no scratches.
diamond stress test
Here is a video showing how durable Diamond really is. It is one tough cookie.

wel it looks like a thick carpet to

please enlighten us further - i like the sound of that
We've been dying to know more about Microsoft's Courier tablet / e-book device ever since we first caught wind of it last September, and while our entreaties to Mr. Ballmer went unanswered, we just learned some very interesting information from an extremely trusted source. We're told Courier will function as a "digital journal," and it's designed to be seriously portable: it's under an inch thick, weighs a little over a pound, and isn't much bigger than a 5x7 photo when closed. That's a lot smaller than we expected -- this new picture really puts it into perspective -- and the internals apparently reflect that emphasis on mobility: rather than Windows 7, we're told the Courier is built on Tegra 2 and runs on the same OS as the Zune HD, Pink, and Windows Mobile 7 Series, which we're taking to mean Windows CE 6.

Please Microsoft, you already own most of my room, I'm BEGGING you to own my notebook as well xD
Just make this a reality and my world is complete.
After graduating college, I'm not sure what I might need this for (except for notes in meetings and then that's awesome), but if stuff like this is being developed in secret at Microsoft, then that is AWESOME.
I love secret stuff like that!
I hope this actually gets released and has good batterylife/inking. If so, then I can finally dump my old sc2010 tablet
Can some one justify the name given to this device ... and then whats so secret about it whan net is spewn with the images and news about it
lol im so exited about this device. hopefully we will know more @ 12th apr.
ms unlike apple never really aimed to be in the hardware producing industry
sure they got the xbox and zunes now but mainly they make concepts showing
how what their software can do with the right hardware so
I would not be surprised if Courier is such a concept prototype which will never become a real product but if it does I would sure like one

Exactly my words. They would be a good competitor though if they are really going to produce these products.
This is very interesting and a nice sleek design makes for a good product in my book!
Hopefully this will be for real someday...
Love the premise.
Far too concepty though.
Want to see real hardware...sadly probably wont be release before Apple brainwashes folks into thinking the ipad is what to buy.

HTC has by far the best phones in terms of materials. Samsung is all plastic, I would much rather have an all Aluminium body. LG is...well I think we all know what LG is right now... so they're out.
And don't forget Nexus will be Open Source no matter who makes it! I'm excited about this phone, I wonder what Ice Cream Sandwich is like.
Cheers
HTC will no longer lock their bootloader... it will be open season or custom rom developers

Idk. But its a discussion for the nexus 3
Sure samsung,is plasticy, but, if they change it to a more metallic body the hardware is the best! Voodoo sound, super amoled 2, dual core 1.5 ghz, 4.3" screen, android ice cream, 10 mega pixel camera and I'm in mobile paradise
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
Hmmm, i still think. LG will make nexus 3. the picture is Fake. i work at google and im hearing buzz inside the office about what will be the next nexus.
and if ever the buzzes are not true...
PLs. no samsung!
i dont like their plastic slippery and weird looking phones.
the last time i had a samsung phone, i was so mad at it i broke the screen because of the terrible laggy UI.. cough*galaxy s*
HTC but pls no samsung!!
Uhh... Look! The new iNexus!
Looks too much like the 3GS to be real.
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA Premium App
i don't care who makes it aslong as it has a quadcore processor
why? you might ask, what is there to gain with a quadcore processor?
nothing! but bragging to friends with the fact that their phones only have 1 core and then making outrageous statements that your phone is by definition is 4x as fast as theirs sounds find to me
I think google can't stay with one manufacturer cause maybe it would be unfair for the rest.

Yeah - thats defo not a HTC phone, they would never make such a blunt copy of the iPhone 3g - would have Apple suing them big time.
As far as I see it, thats nothing but a photoshopped iphone 3g/3gs
I'm in the market for a new phone. I've been checking out the samsung s7, but I still really prefer the oneplus 3. The thing that's now really pulling me towards the s7 is the buttons!
I'm still missing my keyboard from when O2 stole my only slightly broken desire z and sent me a shiney HTC one, and that was about 3.5 years ago.

which is the snap on keyboard cover for the s7, and it got me thinking that there may be other products which might work for the oneplus 3 ... and I will have my final wee bit of argument for buying a new oneplus 3.
Anyone seen anything like this? or even a bluetooth version of some form. Any suggestions welcome.
NB I just don't like touchscreen typing. I used to be a text fiend now I avoid txt at all costs.

check out handheld bluetooth keyboards:

Plug in a cheap OTG cable, get your keyboard of preference and comfortably break the record of words per minute like a champ!
Meant it as a joke but i actually do this frequently
Thanks guys.
Trying to work out if having a separate keyboard is going to be a pain. Think it's the snap on part that I really like. Having a separate one is likely no to get used much. I like being able to type on the move and I think the separate keyboard would cause too much juggling.

That may defeat the purpose of a "mobile" phone
Yeah I've actually got a BT keyboard at home which I use occasionally with my pad, and have used it a couple of times with the phone. I was just hoping there was smaller easier options.
I'm trying to convince myself I don't want to turn to samsung ... as my other half is a brand whore who will only buy samsung.
