HTC Windows 8x Phone!

Today is the day!  I just came home a couple hours ago to my new HTC Windows 8x phone.  I have had a Samsung Galaxy S (Fascinate) for about 2 1/2 years and cell phones have come a long way since then.

Amber (my fiance) just purchased an IPhone 5 and I have quite a few friends that have purchased the Samsung Galaxy III.  Everyone seems to like their phone for different reasons and I like both of those.  However, I saw the HTC Windows 8x phone and decided to do some research.  I went to a Verizon store and played with all three phones.  I kept going back to the Windows phone.  Those live tiles made the phone super easy to use.  That day I decided the Windows 8 phone would be my next phone.

I ordered the phone from Best Buy as they had the phone on sale for $99.99 which is $100 less than Verizon ($199.99, currently).  I also like Best Buys protection/warranty plan better than Verizon as they will replace the phone if anything goes wrong.  Anyway, I ordered it on Friday and here it is today.

My initial thoughts are that I really like the phone.  After getting the phone activated, I have added a few apps and started to get familiar with it.  I'm still nervous that I could be missing out on the next best Android or Apple, but for now I am going to try it for couple weeks and if not I can always return it.  I will keep you posted and do a more in depth review soon.
