Apple > What is your iPhone killer(s)?!

Mountains of posts and articles about this touchy subject so I thought I would spark up some discussion. I'm interested to see what Omio users think are the current and future iPhone killers. For me my number 1 is the HTC Touch Pro. I own a TyTn II and love it. The Touch pro looks as good as an iPhone but with more solid features. Everyone is excited about 3G but it can't compete with HSDPA. Windows mobile, although annoying is useful... Runner up is the Samsung Tocco. It's out now and already boasts better features than the iPhone. * 5 MP camera * HSDPA (again) * Hepatic feedback so you can dial with your eyes closed (although I've never used it so don't know if it would just get annoying!)

I'm all over the iPhone 3G. It's making me a Windows Mobile leaver!

Touch Diamond, yo! Can't mess with that TouchFlo 3d! The Touch Pro's keyboard makes it wayyy to heavy!

"There is no such thing as an iPhone killer yet. No other manufacturer has managed to combine software and design so, or more, successfully than Apple." (Everyone, 2008) Discuss.

The HTC Touch Pro is a beast! Seriously, there's nothing else worth looking at. I shall list the ways... - VGA screen - Touch-flo 3D - Loads of RAM - Best mobile keyboard ever - TV out - All the connectivity options (HSDPA, Wi-Fi etc) - The cool HTC win-mo tweaks (like turning the phone over to ignore an incoming call) This phone is stacked! I can't wait to get one.

Liking the look of the Samsung Omnia... It has everything, the camera, the 3G, the touchscreen, a nice interface. Just a lot better than anything out at the moment, even the iPhone! Just hope that it doesn't get buried by the other phones that look exactly like it.

If you really want to kill the iPhone may i suggest using a pin hammer, very effective. But more importantly the Sony Ericsson Xperia anyone? I've had one for a month now, and i haven't touched my iphone or BB curve! Fantastic handset.

Too bad it comes out in the fall. Otherwise I would be off the iPhone trail. It does look fantastic.

The Xperia is very cool, but it's the size of a small house. I have high hopes for the Instinct. I really wish other smartphones had better browsers though. Yes, a 5.0 megapixel camera with digital zoom, auto focus and free cupcakes is delightful but, goddammit, I want a properly resized webpage too.
