Best Android phone right now?

Nexus One - Only because I have my name on the back

edit - also the fact that updates will always be OTA via Google and not dependant on what Leaf SA wants to do.
 
So is the HTC desire a great phone or should I wait for the Galaxy S to come out end of September?
 
I'd go with the Desire. I bought one, and it's incredible. I wouldn't bother waiting for the Galaxy.

It may well be worth waiting. The Galaxy S interface looks cleaner and that larger Super AMOLED screen is a bonus. The only thing that might be a reason to go Desire is it's unknown how good Samsung will be about updates. But then HTC/Leaf don't have a great track record in that department either...
 
Just toss a coin.
Heads = HTC Desire
Tails = Samsung Galaxy S

The X10 is not a real phone :p
 
The speaker on the desire could be better. Don't really have a problem with fingerprints. Putting it in my pocket seems to clean it so whenever I take it out it's all nice and shiny.
 
Desire or galaxy, either way, it will be an upgrade from any other type of phone...both phones have a lot of good points and bad points. If you are an app junkie I might say the Galaxy. The Desire has too little space, and unless you are brave and willing to root it will stay that way until Froyo abounds along with all apps updated to apps 2 sd capabilities. Samsung has a lot to prove, and I like to think they have a winner on their hands. The Desire is already a winner, but more choice and more competition is better for everyone...It will drive the market, make updates more regular and us more happy like:-)
 
Only problem I have with Samsung is that I hear that they abandon phones. The Desire might be getting Gingerbread whereas with the Galaxy they are stopping at Froyo! Plus I think Samsung mixed things up, they should have made the wave a bit bigger and put Android on it and then the Galaxy could have had Bada and could be smaller. Then the Wave would 100% be the best phone on the market, although I am dreaming now!

So what if Samsung abandon their phones. The community won't.
Plus what you are asking of the phones is for them to be exactly the same just with swapped around OS's? lol.
 
Yes but do you really want a community upgrade, I would rather stuck with official updates! :D And no, I said the screen sizes should also be swapped! Although a swapping of os's would also be great, then I would have gone with the WAve :D However, waiting until September for the Galaxy S feels like an eternity!!!

I am confused, anyway. Some of the community releases are far better than official ones :p so i don't mind using theirs.
 
Since froyo was announced by google pretty much all the big apps have released updates to do with installing on sd card so I think by the time we actually get htc froyo all apps should be compatible and space shouldnt be an issue.
 
I loaded a community android on my HTC, and it had quite a lot of things not working. Community stuffies don't always work that well so I wait for the official updates :D

EXACTLY :D
 
It did suck, although updates keep coming so in time maybe, but picking up my Desire from the show now now :D :D :D
