| Some thing to note about the AMOLED screens. There are two major issues with these screens. First the blue organics has a lifetime of only 14,000 hours. Thats just over a year an a half. The major concern with them though is they can be easily damaged by water and damp. So no dropping them down the toilet Edward. The new samsung tocco ultra has an AMOLED screen so you can go in and see it in the shops to see what you think. |

That 14,000 hr quote was for the early generations of the AMOLED screens. Current iterations produced by Panasonic, Toshiba, Samsung and Sony have all been able to have similar longevities as the traditional LCD and Plasma screens that are out there now. _________________ Ignoring Troll Behavior in Pursuit of Deterring Disinformation and Off-Topic, Antagonism.

Even if that were the maximum life I wonder how many people hold onto their phones that long. |

In the UK the minimum contract for this type of device will be 18 months and many going the iphone route 24 months. Should not be a problem with an 18 month contract.
Also this device will be getting a WM 6.5 upgrade. |
