Default Any former Bionic owners here?

Hey everybody, I currently have a Bionic. It's actually running pretty good now after installing leaks. The main problem I have left is stutters every minute or two when streaming Slacker/Pandora to my car's headunit. Because of this I got Big Red to give me an early upgrade with limits on the phones I can choose. Right now the best phone I can choose is the Rezound. Anyone here have the Bionic prior to the Rezound? If so, what do you like better or worse about it? I have until Mon to make up my mind. Any bluetooth streaming problems? Any comments or opinions are welcome.

Thanks in advance

If it helps, I had the RAZR for 3 days before i got the Rezound,


The Screen is heads and shoulders above both the RAZRs and the Bionic's, Pentile can't even compare to this.

I haven't had any stutters on Bluetooth or on Pandora.
Battery life isn't fantastic but its good enough, I can get through the day with no charging and moderate 4g usage.

I have the Bionic and just bought the Rezound today... Very happy with my decision, here are some key differences...

1) Rezound Camera is Superior

2) Data & Voice at the SAME time! This is a huge bonus HTC has given us and nobody talks about it - smh

3) Screen is 2nd to none... I've owned A LOT of phones over the past 18 months including iPhone 4s, Nexus S, & Bionic. All claim to have great screens but I would put the Rezound on top followed by iPhone 4s & Nexus S.

4) HTC Sense is the best user interface by far for Android at this time...

5) umm... Dre Beats headphones and audio enhancements of course!

6) Rezound is just an all-around sexier phone ;)

Hope this helps!

Nice! Thanks guys. I appreciate the comments. I'm leaning towards getting it but with the GNex on the horizon I want to be sure. The bluetooth streaming is VERY important to me. If you guys think of anything else please post it.

Thanks again

Don't forget that Verizon just extended their return policy into January...

Had a bionic and hated it. Lost data every half hour. This phone keeps a decent connection at great speed. I love it and am very happy I switched

Cool guys thanks. Now I'm looking into Zumocast alternatives because I really love that app.

I was having a difficult time trying to decide between the Rezound and the Nexus, but the deal breaker on the Nexus for me is the no additional storage. That may not be a big deal for some people, but not having as an option sealed the deal on the Rezound for me.

But that's only good if you bought the phone today right? Someone here said that the 15th was the start date for the extension

I had the same problem with my Bionic, returned it for the reZound yesterday and couldn't be happier. Like others have said, the screen is insane and it doesn't lag like the Bionic.
