Which version? 850 or 851 topic


Lookiing for some general guidance here (checked the FAQ 1st)

I'm thinking about getting service on an ATT MVNO (H2O) and wondering which version would be the best to pursue.

The D850 would be the simplest, but a quick look around here and the T-Mobile developer forum seems to have more activity, more content, and a greater variety of ROMs (and possibly support).

Also, I read in another thread here from about 6 months ago that there is much less bloatware by default on the TM variant and the booloader is not locked down by default either. Further, there are some hardware features which may not exist on the 850 that are on the 851 (such as wireless charging possibility).

So I'm leaning toward seeking out a D851 but perhaps there would be some caveats of getting a D851 fully operational on AT&T that I'm not aware of. If so, any guidance is most welcome.

TIA
