Please log in for more thread options I was in BIG doubt when I was choosing one to bring with me to Israel when I
was in the US. It is funny as it all comes to personal taste at the end.
Despite the fact that I knew that the 3G wouldn't work in Israel (wrong
frequencies), I chose the Blackjack due to the Edge support. And I was
surprised to discover that with the extended battery (that comes in the
package), my battery life is between 2 and 4 days, depending on the amount
of use of the phone in conversations. And taking in account that Push Mail
is on from 8AM to 8PM. So I can't really complain.
Both phones are awesome. And in Europe you have also the HTC Breeze (with a
different name on each brand reselling it) which is great as well.
