OT...anyone have an HTC DNA?

This phone is now in the running for me with the SGS3 and the Razr Max HD.

My main concern with the DNA is whether the internal battery is a bad voice over a removable one.

Thoughts?
 
Jacwil-

Played with a DNA. They're nice, but they're typical of an HTC. Build quality is a little poorer; nad I don't like HTC's "Skin" of Android.

The sealed battery in the RAZR Maxx is my only misgiving, as well. Assuming you treat it well, a Li battery should have no problems lasting two years. It's always a comforting bit to know that if you get a bad one, you can swap it. If it's in a harsh(er) environment, it's still the phone of choice. That sealed back keeps out crud, and the kevlar/gorilla glass is nice to keep case and screen injuries down.

I personally love Motorola radios, too. I made a call, flawlessly, on my RAZR Maxx in an elevator shaft descending to, and in a 3rd Sub-Basement of our building on West Street in NY City this past week (loaded with electronics, and laden with steel and concrete); most individuals without Moto (Droid, iOS, Blackberry all included) phones had no signal. Useability speaks volumes.

The SGS3 is pretty, and a great phone for apps/games. No bones about it. There's a reason it's the best selling phone in the US, or the world, right now. Well made, pretty, fast, great accessories. Removable battery. All nice.

The SGS3 and Razr are equally good; play with them both, pick which one you like. HTC, not quite as bueno. Had an original Droid Incredible; it was OK, but it was one of the shortest lived phones I've ever owned for a reason; poor battery management, poor build quality, clunky Android skin.
 
Awesome info!!! Thx!!!

I guess most important to me is music, camera, batt life and signal availability.

The beatbox in the DNA sounds interesting for sure.

My buddy and I are both in the market and as of ten mins ago it appears he's leaning towards the S3...I may follow suit.
 
I am in love with my SG3, after going through 2 HTC EVO's and an over the top dust problem I am amazed by the SG3 build quality. Not to mention my battery with heavy usage lasts 16+ hours.
