For those of you with the Razr (I have the original, none maxx) it is easy to turn off 4g to help save battery life. The only time I notice the speed difference with 4g is when I stream video on it and I can get a almost two full days of heavy talk and email usage out of it.

I wanted durability, more than speed, that's why I chose the Casio Commando G'z One. I've had it since Dec and have had no problems with it. It's a military spec phone.

Battery life on my 4S is not good. My son's 4, however, only gets charged every few days and he is on the thing all the time. The vibration on it is better, too. I wish I had done the free 4 and not the 4s. I will say that I don't have the issues with the iphone that I did with my android. The signal is better as well.


Oh, and Steve has been good to me so no worries about me holding it against you. ;\)

Have you implemented any of the battery saving measures? If not, you may want to try some of these to see if they help. Best of luck! http://ipod.about.com/od/iphone3g/tp/iphone-battery-life.htm

I have the Iphone 4S and would have the 5 if my contract was up for renewal.

I tried some but gave up and keep all location services off unless needed and keep all apps closed when not in use. I also don't save stuff to the cloud. I shouldn't have to but it is what it is. I do like that I turn the phone on and it works. No freezing, locking up or flat out turning itself off. My texts don't go to random people anymore either. \:\)

The guy at work who has the Razr Maxx dates a girl that works for Verizon. She said you can't turn the 4G off on these.

Be sure to tell Steve he is uglier and much older than me. 2nd part true for sure.
