    Early review on RW BETA phones

    Sorry, This is a unboxing video NOT a review. I will try to find a review to add.

    In this video, Elena gets one of the first shipped RW beta phones.

    As you will see when it is unpackaged, as another member pointed out, these phones come shipped with the Sprint logo on them.

    We are still not sure if these phone will still say Sprint when the service gets out of BETA and goes live.
    Personally I think when it goes official (out of BETA) the phones will start shipping with Republic Wireless and or with the RW logo on them.

    Here is the Video

    Not to nitpick but that was an unboxing. I would like to see a review. I want someone to really put that network through it's paces. I want to see them make a long phone call with various degrees of wifi signal strength.

    Sorry about that. And as the forum is set up I can't edit the title.

    And as luck would have it I can't find any reviews.
    Guess we will just have to hold out until our phones show up. In the meantime maybe some one that has received a phone will grace us with a review of the phone.

    the phone is not exactly the fastest one.. (coming from an exhibit 2 4g).. it runs stock android version, 2.3.5 (android version)..
    wifi reception was good at home.. i think this phone uses some version of cyanogen because when i click on legal information.. i see open source, cyanogenmod and google licenses..

    mem info.. 211/421 mb...
    with 1 bar of wifi call quality is ok.. battery life is not the greatest.. i unpluged the phone around 8. with 80% battery... i streamed music for around hour and a half.. and around 6 m i had around 25% battery life.. i used opera mini and made several calls... the acelerometer is not the fastest one but it works...

    From what you said, battery life seems great, compared to my current phone.. There is no way I could go ten hours and still have 25% battery left, especially from streaming radio for an hour and a half.
