Alright so its time for me to get a new phone. I've had the Motorola OG Droid for about a year now and i think i might kill someone. The phone is so bad, it keeps freezing its extremely slow and i just hate it. Im looking to get a 4G phone since verizon didnt raise the prices for 4G but i dont know which phone to get since they both look great. On one had the Droid Charge has the beautiful AMOLED screen with the new improved touchwiz UI. And the HTC THunderbolt has the crazy fast speeds and the great dev support for roms etc. But the problem is that i've been hearing a lot of negative reviews about the thunderbolt because it has A LOT of bugs and its killing the experience of an amazing phone, while most of the droid charges bugs have been patched and it performs amazingly. So i need the communities input which phones is a better investment? and which one should i get?

I just got the Thunderbolt about a month ago. Right now it's the ONLY phone that can do voice and data on both 3G and 4G. Battery life is good if you install the JuiceDefender app, or get the extended battery. Look at the reviews of the Samsung Charge and the HTC Thunderbolt here on Tom's Hardware and see which fits your needs best. Also, here is a link to reviews done by PC World magazine:
