    sam, 16 Aug 2010i m in love with this phone wanted to purchase it but these... moreU will always get people saying good and bad things about every phone because everyone has different expectations and opinions. That's human nature buddy. The only way to resolve ur conflicted mind is to go in to a shop and try it then decide. Cheers

          arena, 16 Aug 2010im using a class 6 16gb sandisk.. i bought it at best buy l... moreAsphalt doesn't run so good on ur WAVE? Thats ur opinion mate and i'm cool with it but why all the WAVE hating when u were once called Quebec? For the record Asphalt runs fine on mine so lets start a poll and then we will have the final answer? Ok guys does Asphalt stutter on the wave compared to other phones? Lets hear it people!

                  Wavey, 16 Aug 2010I would doubt that. I have played Asphalt on both devices a... moreim using a class 6 16gb sandisk.. i bought it at best buy last week. well i will make a video caomparison between the asphalt on my wave and on my ipt. to show the you about the frameskip issues on wave. i'm not lying and i would like you guys to see that the asphalt on ipt runs smoothly. than on wave. i closed all my widgets as suggested. i installed aspahlt on my phone memory but still it's the same framerate issue. i'm about to go to my friends house later and i will try the asphalt on android device. he owns a galaxt and will try to compare it on my wave. but still im still puzzled on why the iphone's asphalt run more smoothly than on wave well in fact they have the same graphics processor right?

                      arena, 16 Aug 2010im not bashing the wave im just showing real facts.. try it... moreI would doubt that. I have played Asphalt on both devices and both are almost equally good. In case of Wave, it was smooth, apart from a hitch here or there. Same in case of iPhone 3GS.

                      I really cannot compare this with iPhone 4 but what I feel is that a game like Asphalt may not need all the juice of a 1 Ghz processor. So I foresee no difference.

                      May be yours was a one off case.

                          arena, 16 Aug 2010im not bashing the wave im just showing real facts.. try it... morePeople are getting upset with u because you make dumb comments like ''the only good about this phone is the superamoled. other than that nothing else''. Thats a bold and dumb statement! What about the fact that its a good deal cheaper than the iphone4 has the same processor, u can put practically any movie by drag and drop on the phone and it will play it,not restricted by itunes, good music quality the list goes on! As explained many times change ur memory card to class 4 or above and see the difference in regards to movies and games. If u want to get rid of ur WAVE over one game thats tells us a lot about u fella.
