The Droid Eris was an underpowered underdog of a cellphone. It performed adequately, but never superbly. It had problems making phone calls in succession; the screen and keyboard were laggy and frustrating to use; it had terrible call quality. It lasted me two entire years, and I could rely on it...

I will be brief as I had the orginal iPhone, 3g and 3gs and this phone is so much better in almost every way - calls (what can I say it is Verizon - the best network), e-mail, widgets, fast, feels great in your hand (so balanced) and solid, screen is bright and sharp, syncs with gmail account or...

I have tried to leave the iPhone two times before with no success. The third time might be a success. I have owned the Droid Eris for about a week now and I am continuing to learn what this phone can do. The main reason I left the iPhone was the network and syncing to a computer. The network...

This phone DOES everything that I wanted the iPhone to do and more! It feels great to be free from restrictions like not having to sync with iTunes or constantly jailbreak my phone just to do something simple like change my home screen background. The phone is pretty quick and has tons of...

I had a chance to play with both the Droid and the Droid Eris while I waited in line at my local Verizon store, I wanted to see which phone felt better and was easiest to use and I kept going back to the Eris. The UI is very intuitive and close to that of an iphone. So far the phone has performed...

The HTC Eris with the Droid OS is winner. Verizon Wireless coverage just enhances an already wonderful user experience. The phone is slight smaller than an iPhone which is a plus. It's screen resolution is first rate. The touch functionality is excellent and the trackball is an added...

I upgraded from what has to be one of the worst smartphones, the Blackberry Pearl, to this. My battery was dying and cost an arm and a leg, so I jumped over for a little more out of pocket. I'm not disappointed at all, but there are a few hiccups. The screen is fantastic. Obviously not the...

Decent android phone on the cheap best thing to do is root this phone, otherwise stock phone and support sucks.

By far the worst phone i ever had. It was my first smartphone purchase and the experience with the Android OS sent me running to Apple who has not disappointed me in service and style.

I was not interested in the large format of the Moto Droid and this was the only other option at the time on Verizon so I went with it. Just after I bought it an OS update came out... then 3 months later it was avaialble for my phone. Then another OS update came out and they just decided they...

Bought this phone the day it came out, despite it having 1.5 OS (Cupcake) on it, it's still a solid phone for someone who is looking to get out of a clamshell design. It can be pretty snappy, though at times it can be fairly laggy and seem to be unresponsive. That said, the Sense UI is a...
