I didn't beta test this one so it was a surprise how slick and smooth this app runs on my Nexus 4. Carbon is supposed to be a WebOS/Windows Phone refugee that has finally come to Andrdoid.

Anyone else going to give it a whirl? What are your thoughts?

I might give it a shot. It looks great. All I do is post stuff and read stuff on twitter so the default app works fine for me.

Dammit, I just downloaded Falcon Pro last night. This one looks pretty good, I'll still check it out. At least I'm still working on the Google Play Store credit I received from my N7.

I just started using it a few hours ago and it's pretty slick. I can't find a way to save images though. I've been using Falcon Pro for a while now and I think it has more features at this point than Carbon.

Yeah both Carbon and Falcon Pro are twitter apps but there's also a new Carbon that backs up apps.

Hmm well it doesnt look like anything better than what i use which is Tweetcastor. Falcon Pro looks better imo but i been using Tweetcastor for a long time.

Me too. I was the exact same. I used Tweet caster Pro since I bought my S3 and only recently switched to Falcon Pro. This one is better than stock, but Falcon Pro is still the best. In my humble opinion, anyway.

it looks nice, scrolls smoothly. i can't seem to find a conversation view, and i wish it had tweet marker support.
