Returning my HTC Titan for a Samsung Focus S
I love my HTC Titan, but sadly… yet another smartphone that’s can’t make phone calls. Well, this one is hit or miss, but it’s enough of an issue where my wife is demand that I replace it. There are wide spread reports of defective microphones on the Titan:
AT&T Wireless Forums: HTC Titan – Microphone Problem?
WPCentral.com Forums: HTC > Titan > Call Voice quality issues
HTC Forums: Terrible Call Quality
To be clear, Windows Phone is AMAZING. After two iPhones and three Android devices, I can say with confidence Windows Phone is the best mobile OS I’ve ever used. And it’s getting raving press: The Critics Rave … for Microsoft?I love it, I just have issues with this device. Other than this mic problem, I would say this is the best device I’ve had as well. I wish I didn’t have to return it, but this is a deal breaker.
I’ve decided I’m going to take a break from my HTC loyal for a while. This is my 5th HTC device in the last 9 years… and the last two have had significant manufacturing issues. I’m going with the Samsung Focus S. I’m on the phone ordering it from AT&T as I type.

good !
