Ok, I know I said I'll take my leave, but that was before reading this post from polarzbearz.
You touched on a very good point.
I've mentioned quite a long while back that the biggest problem I see with Android (in 2010 at least), was that every single major Android device available here has some kind of major problem that users need to deal with.
You see, having serious issues like bugs and lousy hardware is a PROBLEM, and it is NOT the same as a WEAKNESS, as you claimed.
For example, we all know that ip4 users hate itunes. Well, most of them anyway. This is a WEAKNESS of the ip4, because it is DESIGNED to work that way. As in, Apple WANTS the phone to be that way.
With the DHD's INIT bug and lousy battery, can you seriously say that HTC purposely WANTED the phone to be like that? No, I would guess not. I don't think when HTC was developing the phone they had in their mind "hey, let's build a phone that lags without usb debug enabled and have a lousy battery life".
So you see the difference between weakness and problem.
I cannot honestly comment on the IS, since I don't personally own one, and all I know about it are what my friends tell me.
But for the Arc, I can honestly say that unlike DHD or SGS, it is relatively free from problems.
This is not to say that the Arc is perfect. It's not. It just doesn't suck. And apperantly not sucking is too much to demand from HTC's DHD.
Yes, of course you guys know all about the DHD's suckages, and of course you guys still love it.
Me, I'm just glad to be free.
Ok, dinner time.
I apologise for using the wrong term with bad examples. Alright, problems.
Allow me to re-quote your post back

Alright then, here we go.
First of all, I'm not sure if you actually have a point in there, other than to say that I suck.
Second of all... actually, I don't even know what to write, because frankly speaking, I am not good at responding to a post that doesn't do anything at all except tell people "you suck". That's just going to be a childish, name-calling competition, isn't it?
As for your claim that the DHD does not suck, well, ok, just stamping your feet and insisting that your precious phone does not suck really isn't contributing anything to the discussion. You gotta at least tell me WHY.
Why I think the DHD is a sad piece of trash:
1. TFT screen (other comparable single-core Androids ALL available have better screen, meaning DHD's screen quality is at the bottom of the pile)
2. Speakers (if anybody wants to, I will happily put your DHD next to my Arc/Wave, turn on the stock music player, and compare the sound quality)
3. Camera (again, ALL other comparable single-core Androids available have better cameras, which means DHD's camera is the worst)
4. Flimsy build (volume rockers and battery and sim card covers feel like some cheap toy that can just snap and break anytime)
5. INIT bug (I'm happy to report that neither my Wave nor Arc needs USB debugging enabled to prevent it from lagging like a cheap Symbian)
6. Camera lens position (seriously, which idiot thought that is was a good idea to stick the camera lens out like that?)and last but not least:
7. Battery live life (do we even need to elaborate on this?)» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
And this is not yet considering the fact that the IS, a practically similar but superior phone from the SAME manufacturer, was released just a few short months after the DHD, making the DHD look like a sad practical joke.
As you can see, there is a long list of reasons why I think the DHD is a piece of turd. If you disagree, tell me why, instead of just spamming "hey you suck". If you don't want to bother, that's also ok, but then any further response from you will be just considered as useless flame and nothing more.
Added on May 8, 2011, 6:42 pmThank you for asking, but I'm happy to tell you that I am VERY satisfied with the Arc, unlike the DHD, which made me hate it within 24 hours of taking it out from the box.
In fact, I almost felt bad for the buyer of my DHD.
Let's just focus on the bold parts that you brought in.
Since you clearly differentiate
PROBLEMS and
WEAKNESSESOut of 7 "problems" that you mentioned, I'm sorry but I'll have to deny most of them, as they are more as
weakness than
problems. Only those that highlighted in red seems like a problem to me.. (Lousy speaker, INIT bug, and battery life.)
Why screen is not a problem? -- Because with the downside of it that its using TFT screen, but one good thing is that it's a 4.3", at least... so it's more like a weakness..
Why camera is not a problem? -- Yes, others may perform better. But still, DHD's camera is not that bad. It works nice enough for daily uses. Of course, it wouldn't be sufficient if you're expecting a DSLR quality...
Camera lens position? -- Well, different people have different says for it.. so how is it a problem? Some may actually like that design as it's a standout. So..
As for cover build, I'd say I have 50% against and 50% agree with you. Sure it does feel "toy-ish", I agree with that. But is that really a problem? How many times do we actually opens and close it in our daily life? But as I said, it's 50/50. It's not a problem for me, as I'm using a heavy protective case, but it might be problem for others.. so let's just drop this.
Certainly, these
weaknesses are not really affecting our phones much, the way I see it. Why? Because we can still enjoy using our phone...
To summarise, my main point is:-
1) You don't have to bash something you dislike, that badly. Everything have its pros and cons.. you do not have to start a flame just because you dislike something..
2) The reason you feel your phone is "suck" due to its problems, well.. some of it are more like weakness than problems, as you explained yourself.
Finally, cheers. I do not wish to make enemy here...
