so i decided to get the Chocolate but too many people have it...
and now people are saying that the Helio is a good phone..

I dislike the chocolate simply because of the reviews I read and it's way too popular like the RAZR.

I say get Helio, they are a good company. Have the same pros and cons as other companies. Those phones didn't do so well when they "first" came out, like every single phone that's unlocked, but now they fixed all, or most, of the bugs with firmware updates. Plus, not many people have them yet and they are going to release more phones. Just make sure you have good Sprint coverage in your area because Helio uses there towers. Also, the Hero is so much better than the chocolate.

i'd say go with the Helio.... it's cute. smile.gif
hahah not only that... the Chocolate's touch pad is WAYYY too sensitive. you could lose a call like *snaps fingers* that.

^ you can adjust the senstivity of the touchpad to your tastes.. plus the touch buttons are deactivated while a call is in session unless you press a button on the left side of the phone..


but any day you ask me... I'd say helio..

Lol i was debating between these two, but now i think: Neither.
Because the helio, i think is a bad design and no bluetooth, the lg as mentioned before is too touch sensitive.

Are you sure? There have been numerous times when I'm on the phone and suddenly my face brushes up against it and it opens up menus and stuff. It's so annoying.

the white helio actually looks really cheap in real life. it's not as white as it appears and it's more like a silver plastic-y material. but the black one is really cool, just has a lot more buttons haha. i'd rather get the chocolate, so cute!

imo definitely the helio. i have the chocolate and honestly too many people have it so it takes all the originality out of it (i know that's not the best reason for buying a phone but style does matter, at least to some/most of us O_O)... but verizon wireless is imo the best cell phone service and helio is pretty new... maybe you can try out the verizon and return it if you don't like it (15 days to return phone/plan without penalty) ^^

edit:
DO NOT GET THE HELIO KICKFLIP- basically it's from vk mobile going against SKY (Hero is originally a SKY phone) and SKY kicks ass. plus it feels cheap when you hold it...

To be honest I'd say neither. Helio is too big , and as someone stated before it has no bluetooth? ohmy.gif like cmon and the Hero only has 3 hours of talktime . Besides the only real difference that pops out of helio phones that other phones cant do is myspace and korean text messaging, other then that other phones can do everything else. As for the Chocolate phone. Its alrite . But the thing I dont like about it is the camera and that it has no expandable slot for memory ( but the Verizon version of Chocolate does , someone had told me) and a lot of people have it.

IMHO , you should look at getting either a Sony Ericsson (K750i, Z710i,w810,w900 etc..), Samsung( e900, D840, D900 etc..) or a Nokia. Those 3 phones have the best functionality out of them all and are all equiped with better cameras and have bluetooth.

But this is just my opinion, you might just like the Helio phone or the Chocolate. BUT , IF it really came down to ONLY those 2 PHONES.. I would choose Helio.
