In the scheme of things, the platform is still extraordinarily young which means that virtually every new handset that's announced brings "firsts" to the table; in the Moment's case, it's both the first Android device with an 800MHz ARM11 core and the first Android QWERTY...

The Moment's disappointing not just because the Hero and Cliq actually do interesting things that make Android better, but because it's running an older version of Android that's likely limiting its potential, and it won't get the chance to be better until everybody stops caring...

If you go down the checklist of feature differences between the Moment and Hero it seems silly to pick the HTC device. The moment has a great OLED screen, proximity sensor, physical keyboard, fast processor and a physical camera key. The first problem is the battery life. Having an 800mhz...

First, I have to say that this phone was a huge let down for me. I enjoy Android so much that I did not mind the stock Android software build on it *at all*. In fact, this may have been a plus! The only additions it had were the Sprint ones (e.g., Sprint Nav, NFL, Sprint TV, etc). The first...

The Moment has much going for it.

Most of the reviews I have read on this site about the Samsung Moment are coming from people who don't actually have the phone. Little nit-picky complaints and comparisons to the HTC Hero. PSSSSH. If you don't own the phone, STFU. The HTC Hero is crap in comparison to the Samsung...

Love the slideout keyboard and vibrant OLED screen. Overall I am really enjoying my first android os experience. Looking forward to the 2.1 update later this year. The 2gb Micro SD card is small but I found a class 6 8gb card off of amazon for less than $20 and plan to get a 16gb or 32gb card...
