  • So, Verizon, if you didn’t know, has the iPhone 4 on their network, and they have for a few weeks. They have also had the Thunderbolt for the past few weeks as well, and if you ask any lipschitdz teenager they will say, “duur, the iPhone 4 is the best, of course it is going to sell more!” Wrong!

  • Its about time that Verizon gets this phone out the door. But is it too late? For me it is, then phone has been delayed so many times, I’ve lost most of my faith and interest in the phone. While it is the first 4G LTE phone on a major carrier, its dead beautiful, and is an total elitists phone, its just not going to be sliding into my pocket any time soon. Here’s why. First, My contract won’t be up until August, so here’s to hoping thats when the Tegra (more on that coming soon) launches. Second, the phone has been delayed way to many times, I don’t even...

  • We have another unboxing of Verizon’s first LTE phone, the HTC Thunderbolt 4G. You may remember the one from a few weeks ago, but this one actually shows of the packaging that this phone will come in. It also dives into the internals a bit. Its always nice to get another look at this phone, but what would really be nice is some confirmation on when this phone will come out. Verizon just delayed the device from the 14th to an unknown time. See, I warned that the iPhone would hurt Verizon. I joke, current rumors are that Skype is the problem, and heaven forbid you launch it with Skype....

  • Best Buy just announced that they will be the exclusive retail partner for the HTC Thunderbolt at launch. We had hopped that a data might be included with this statement, but sadly no. We know that the device will launch mid february, which BB confirms in their press statement. This rules out any chance that the phone will launch on the 24th, because, any logical person would rule that as the end of february. Now, exclusive does not mean that Verizon stores won’t be selling the device. It simply means you should not line up at a Radio Shack for one of these. You can walk into a Best Buy,...

  • Verizon is putting up a new commercial for their fit 4G device, the Thunderbolt by HTC. We have seen plenty of their 4G promo commercials, they all follow a theme of thunder and lightning, this one is no different. Droid-Life seems to think this means we could be getting close to a press release/event, even as soon as today (nice way to counter what ever Sprint is announcing today). We still aren’t sure when VZ will make an announcement, or if they will hold an event for the device (though they should). Video after the break.

  • Some people have some really good friends, in some high up positions. Like Michael, he managed to get a preview or test HTC Thunderbolt 4G unit. So, what do you do when you get something no one else has? Put a video up on YouTube, thats what. We are always happy to see more shots of this beautiful device, it helps us stay calm as we wait for the release. So, if your not so patiently waiting for this phone, the video below should get you through the next few days. Now we should note, this device is running an older version or older build of HTC Sense 2.0 for...
