Help me choose a phone (Please!)

After 2 years of dealing with the crappiest phone ever, I can finally upgrade! I've never had a smartphone before, and know nothing about them. All I know is that I would like to be able to download apps. I think I have it narrowed down to these:

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Apple%26%23174%3B+-+iPhone%26%23174%3B+4+with+16GB+Memory+Mobile+Phone+-+Black+(Verizon+Wireless)/2024814.p?id=1218306505021&skuId=2024814&contract_desc=

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/HTC+-+DROID+Incredible+Mobile+Phone+-+Black+(Verizon+Wireless)/9893153.p?id=1218190733873&skuId=9893153&contract_desc=

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Samsung+-+Fascinate+Mobile+Phone+-+Black+(Verizon+Wireless)/1200475.p?skuId=1200475&id=1218240440248

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Motorola+-+Droid+X+Mobile+Phone+-+Black+(Verizon+Wireless)/2345182.p?id=1218323852233&skuId=2345182&contract_desc=

They would all cost me under $30, except for the iPhone, which is $200.

If you could let me know what to look for, and if you would recommend any of these (or others). If it helps, I have Verizon.

  • I love my iphone!

  • I think the iphone is the way to go, if that's what you're looking for. Otherwise, I can tell you my friends have both the Droid X and Incredible. They love both of them. Sometimes they stick a bit, but no more than the iphone that other friends use. It's the same way if you use a computer too fast and it gets stuck a bit.

  • I have the DroidX.

    Good: For the most part it's a good phone. The screen's great, it takes pretty good pictures. The MP3 player on it is decent. The apps for it are getting better.

    Bad: Sometimes when I search for things it freezes. The GPS on it takes forever and freezes too. Which sucks when you are lost and really want to get home.Lately I have also had to do a hard reboot and take the battery out of it.

    When I first got it I was like Yeah, I don't need the iphone. Now, I think if I could have had the iphone when I got my droidx it would have gotten the Iphone. I will trade my DroidX in for it when it comes out. 

    Also vanity wise. I have to have a case for my phone. I am just to nervous that I'll drop it and the offerings for the X are just sad.

    Ultimately I wish I had an iphone. I like what it can do more. It also seems to have a more reliable operating system.

  • I'm not sure my life would be complete without my iPhone. It's my companion on my morning commute.

  • I just ordered the Blackberry Torch last night and should get it in a few days.  I have an ipod touch and don't really want an iphone because I wanted a slide out keyboard.

  • I had an iphone over the summer at my old job.  They paid for it, so I got it.  When I quit that job and started my current job, I was too cheap to pay for the iphone, so I got a Blackberry curve.  I completely regret it.  If you're willing to spend the money on the iphone, then you should go for it.  I really believe it's the best phone out there.

    iPhone!  iPhone!  iPhone!

    Ha.  I love mine.  Derek's got a Blackberry and hates it.  That's all I've got.

  • Thanks Ladies! You have convinced me to shell out the extra $$ for an iPhone. Can't wait!
