I thought it would have wifi but later found out it doesn't. Is there any talk about it supporting wifi later on? And if they choose to do so, will it be a hardware update, or could they add wifi just by releasing new firmare? Also what are your experiences on sprints evdorev network? is it fast for internet browsing?...DareFirst of all, STOP SAYING GET THE GLYDE! because the touch screen on that phone is so finiky and unresponsive! But i would get the Dare because it is on the amazing Verizon Network, and i like the all around look better than the Instinct. but then again it is a personal chioce. If you need a phone more for work (e-mail, calendar, etc.) then get the instinct, but if not, get the Dare.Hope this helps...Re: LG Dare or Samsung Instinctdont get either! GET THE GLYDE!!!!!!SamSung InstinctIs the SamSung Instinct compatable with spiralfrog??Re: LG Dare or Samsung InstinctPersonally, i would go for the LG Dare. Hands Down. The camera isn't a big deal, but that is just another thing that makes it better. The screen might be a bit smaller, but the is really crisp and clear on the Dare. I don't like the Instinct as much because it has a kind of metalic look to it. If i weren't in Canada, i would buy the Dare!!!LG Dare or Samsung InstinctI like both of these phones from the reviews on this site. Is either a clear cut better phone then the other? The only advantage I have seen is the better camera on the Dare, but the camera is not that important to me. I have to pick one of the two......which would you pick and why? [H] |
