Love it!
I came to the Vivid from the BB Torch. The transition to Android was bumpy, but I had to drop the BB like a hot potato. Anyway, I do feel like I have to handle the Vivid gingerly, due to it's size and the back plate. It is all worth it. Speed, smoothness, brilliant screen, and the envy of all my friends. Worth it. And the camera is fantastic, both still and video!
I just got the vivd also and love it! But I'm having a hard time finding wall paper apps for the phone, due to the weird cropping size. have you found any?

1620 mAh battery???
Seriously HTC??? With LTE? FAIL! 🙄
Not a fail...LEARN before you type a comment. They are not like Verizon phones that require an LTE radio and a seperate CDMA radio to allow simul voice and data. LTE is a data only network still for both carriers, however, AT&T is able to use a single...

is it a cell phone? Is this phonescoop?
"However, if you're not prone to actually using your phone to converse with people, this can be overlooked, especially since the zippy data speeds make it a great mobile internet device."
This isn't a cell phone it's a small tablet computer with a crumby phone attached. Come on now, really? What is going on with the cell phone industry? Are we supposed to carry two devices with us? one for surfing the web and another to call someone?

Don't buy this phone if voice is a primary factor.
Lots of us don't give a damn about call quality

Many people, especially younger generations, rarely use voice. That's why we say things like that.
LTE Speeds
I recently got this phone at Best Buy Mobile, and have it in Indianapolis, Indiana. My data speed is pulling 24.8 down, 12.6 up...pretty impressive. The LTE network goes live in two days here...maybe it will get better.
I agree with the voice quality on phone calls, but it should get better if they ever open up LTE to voice calls not just data.
