Actually, I rarely reboot my Android phone, have NEVER pulled my battery and have had better voice quality with both my Androids than with cell phones of the past. 

I had an HTC Incredible for two years and got a Motorola Droid Razr in February to go with 4G.  The speakerphone on the Motorola is better, but I liked the software on the HTC better.  My battery generally lasts 30-40 hours but I spend very little time actually talking on it.

I've been very happy with my iPhone 4. I rarely reboot my phone (every 2-3 months) and never have to pull the battery, which is not what I hear my android friends say. I'm happy with voice quality as well.

Hi,

This is very OT.

I have been with verizon for 8 years.  Voice only.  It has been 4 years since I upgraded our phones.  It is just my wife and I. 

We are thinking of going with smart phones.

A friend suggested HTC phones because of the better quality of speaker and mic.  Voice quality is very important to me. 

As it stands we can get unlimited voice for  $120/mo, 1000 texts for $10/mo and 2G of data for each phone for $20/ea/mo.  Total is about $170/mo + tax and fees. 

I like verizon because they have always provided top of the line service.

I've briefly looked at Straigt-Talk, T-Mobile, and Sprint.  My fear with these providers is quality of the call, availability, and dropped calls.

Any suggestions on which phone to get?  From prior conversations on this list it seems a Droid phone is the way to go.  I don't think I will ever want to take the time to root my phone, however you never know. 

What about phone apps and other things I might not be thinking about?

I appreciate all the feedback you will provide!

Thank you in advance for your help!!
