Title: HTC Thunderbolt

I bought my wife an HTC Thunderbolt phone for her birthday. The features look nice and the reviews are pretty good. Anybody have one? Opinions?

Everything I have heard has been great phone, crappy battery.  I think most people need to recharge every 12-18 hours.

It's just a 4g version of the incredible which was a kick ass phone. Htc's snapdragon processors are the shit. I have iPhone now but I still like the htc better. It was faster IMHO but iPhone is def a more polished product.

I think, to some extent, everybody complains about battery life on any smartphone. I've always used the widget to turn the internet on and off, and usually keep it off when I'm not using my phone. Never really had a problem.

So far, the Thunderbolt is indeed badass. I look forward to replacing my shitty Droid Eris within the next week or so. Battery consumption hasn't been a problem so far, as long as you keep the 4G switched off when you're not using it. She uses WiFi whenever she can as well, and it eats up less battery than 4G.
