[Q] What Would You do? - HTC EVO 3D

Need some help as to which phone to keep and which to give away. I had an OG Evo and I loved it up to the day i sold it. I then purchased a Nexus. 4G and quickly fell in love with the phone. Exactly a month and a half later I bought the Evo 3d which is what I'm using now.
Now thst you have a history here's what I need help with... would you use the NS4G or Evo 3D? Take all factors into account (NS4G is rooted and evo 3d is not, NS4G is smaller and feels better in the hand whereas evo is a brick, evo has a dual core powerhouse and 3d capabilities, NS4G is single core w/ no 3d, evo runs sense (I'm def not a fan, NS4G doesn't)
Please post your feedback.

If it was me i would say the Evo 3d . because it's more future proof with the dual core, MHL, ect. The nexus is a great phone too but i really like the evo 3d better.

I would take the EVO 3d without thinking twice but from your post, you seem to like the nexus better so I say keep the nexus, sell the 3d (you probably make more money anyway by selling the 3d)

Well...I currently own both phones as well and plan on keeping both. I've had the NS4G since it came out. Just got the E3D today and love it. Both phones have definitely advantages over the other. To the point that I dont want to get rid of my NS4G so I'll be keeping both.
Not to mention I have a tendency to switch phones rather frequently.

Well I wouldn't be buying an NS4G because I still have mine I'm just debating whether or not to return my E3D to get my upgrade back to upgrade to the new SGS II phone coming out

Internal memory sounds like a fail to me. Might as well buy an iPhone.

What's the use of dev support when you can't make anything for the phone? MIUI is easily my favorite ROM and it ran so well on the OG evo ans NS4G so I really don't know this is a hard choice!

with dev support all the good things come to the phone. i mean geez, this phone has only been out what 2 weeks. i think temporary root already means much much more to come. i am an htc fanboy so i am going to say keep the 3d but it's all a matter of personal preference. i have laughed when my htc phones get the updates and all the samsung people say "ours is right around the corner" i laughed at every epic owner that told me "i can wait a couple of days" when our evo 4g's got the gingerbread update, i don't think epic has gingerbread still(correct me if i am wrong). don't get me wrong i have seen samsung phones come out the gate blazing and have the latest and greatest but don't count on anything down the road.

Honestly was the Evo3d worth getting?

I have always been HTC lover. Since the pp6700 I had every htc flagship smartphone. True they were not perfect, which was why I ditched my evo for epic.
Better in a lot of ways but has problems of it's own. Ended up hating the galaxy as well. Well I wanted to come back to htc before catching wind of the S2
But I see in this forum of many build quality problems well scattered thought the device. Seems rushed product? Seems more faults then epic and evo together when released.
Just wanted to know what others feel.

Its definitely worth it if you get a good one. People act like its such a huge request to look at the phone prior to leaving the sprint store... If there is something wrong with the one they bring you, just tell them you want a different one.
I'm happy with mine. Even with my monocular vision.

One of the cardinal rules of online research is to not judge a product by its forums. People who are satisfied with a product rarely post about it.
I love my Evo 3D. Build quality is perfect and Im putting my OG Evo on ebay this weekend.

I am on my second device (EVO 3D). I killed the first because I did a drunken swim (lil drunk right now in case this post doesn't make much sense ) and forgot it was in my pocket. The first had 1 dead pixel, only noticible when using an app to look for them and even then, I was the only one of the 3 people I asked who could actually see it. Other than that, the build quality on both phones has been outstanding. IMHO those who complain, for the most part, are those who would complain about just about anything and are looking for things to ***** about. The 3D is superior to the OG EVO in every way (with the exception of root). Is it the difference I had from my old Touch Diamond to my OG EVO, no, absolutely not. It is an evolutionary improvement with the added feature of 3D. I think the build quality of the 3D is night-and-day better than the build quality of the OG EVO, but that's just my opinion. Is it worth getting? I wouldn't go back to my old EVO, the decision is really to each his/her own.
I'm happy with mine too... Just that it lags pretty bad when scrolling in the market and some apps.... But I guess could be fixed by a update.

This is definitely an upgrade to my old EVO by a longshot. Is it perfect? No. Is it worth getting? Yes.
Sense 3.0 at its best, Camera is better, shutter button is a welcome addition, the screen is better, Stock speed is faster than EVO rooted, the graphics WOW, 1Gig RAM, a gig of UA storage & the 3D is fun as hell. It's one core alone is better & it has 2 of them. Most of the developers from the EVO 4G will develop for the EVO 3D.
I can cry about it not having permanent root but that's just a matter of patience.
You have 30 days to make that call for yourself, you might feel differently or even better about it.

Great phone, blows away my EVO4G. Honestly, if you ditched the EVO for the EPIC, this probably isn't the phone for you!
Thanks!
Mature people here. I got used to the samsung side of xda lol.
See a lot of nonbiased replies. And I agree with a lot that was said here.
I do have my eyes out for the S2, but I will definitely take advantage of the 30day grace period and take the 3d for a spin.
I'm intrigued at the thought of taking 3d porn lol honestly anyone try it?? Hehe

Definitely worth it for me. I had my Evo 4G for less than a year, sold it for $240, and got the full upgrade price of $199 so it cost me nothing extra except one extra year on contract to get a better new phone.
I love the Evo 3D. And anyone who b*tches about it all the time cuz their screen is a lil bit yellow instead of white, or they got shipped with kingston instead of scan or w/e can just take it back n get the samsung instead and let the rest of us actually enjoy this beast. It's one of the best phones out there and the only 3D phone that is worth buying and that 3D feature got me laid, so STOP b*tchin. Not aimed at the thread starter.
Yep
Bussin Caps n 3D

Should I buy the damn phone or not?

I keep seeing these "I love my phone" threads or "I'm returning my phone" thread and all it does to me is make me indecisive. My upgrade is available on August 1st and I want to know if it's worth it. I am an evo 4g user since last year and i want to know from someone who enjoyed the evo since day 1 the difference between the two phones. By the way I am not planning on getting a gs2. Thanks guys.
UPDATE : Bought the damn phone and then I rooted the damn thing and I overclocked it and I am loving it. Thank god my account was eligible for an upgrade on August 1st while root was out. Patience is a virtue.

I had the Evo 4G since launch day, used it all year, and upgraded to the Evo3D on launch day as well. It is definitely an upgrade from the Evo 4G. The qHD screen is superior, the smoothness of the UI is awesome, sense 3.0 is cool, the processor and gpu are both beasts, and 90% of the devs that worked on the Evo4g are here for the Evo3D as well. The only thing the Evo has on the 3d (IMO) is full root and custom roms/kernels. However, we are very close to having that on the 3D as well. (hopefully) So to answer your question, yes I think you would enjoy the upgrade from the Evo4g. The power of this phone is amazing, even stock. The battery life is superior to the Evo too. And things are only going to get better from here, once we have S-off.
You just sold an evo 3d. Now the indecisive feeling is gone and getting this phone thank you very much.

What he said. I have both phones still. The only issue I have run into with the phone is wireless speeds. I am in the sticks, and pretty sure I am usually roaming on Verizon 1x towers. When I was in a big city over the weekend, Colorado Springs, the 4G speeds were pretty stinking awesome! 3G left a lot to be desired though. I have read up on it a bit, talked with those who I thought would know more than me, and did the 3G speed fix. So far, is loads about 200kbps regardless of signal strength. If you can look past that, you're set. I am pretty sure I'll be sticking this device out for as long as Devs are willing to work on it. Keeping fingers crossed for all of the fun possibilities that this POWERFUL device will bring when kinks are worked out.
Buy it you won't regret it!

For me, i was torn between evo3d and nexus s, i ended up with the 3d and for my first 30 i considered trading for the nexus, if it had just a few more features i probably would have traded for it. Now i wish i would have waited for the samsung s2.
Do i like the phone? Yes
Was it worth $200 to upgrade from the evo? No
But i sold my evo back to sprint for $150, so for a $50 upgrade from the evo it was worth it. Although i still wish i would have heald off for the new samsung coming out
Everything everyone wants in a custom rom and everything every custom rom advertises for the OG EVO is already in the 3D stock, plus the 3d features and more. Yes. Buy the damn phone! It hasn't even been rooted yet. This means where the OG EVO is being pushed to its limits, the 3D's true potential hasn't even been tapped yet.
Yes. Phone is awesome, even without full root.
I love my 3vo. But to each their own. Make sure the screen isn't crooked before they activate it.
Battery life is awesome. Way far superior than the OG 4G.
The ONLY think I like about the OG 4G is the width of the screen. I wish the 3vo was the same width. The 3vo seems a little top heavy in my hands. But it is so minor that I'll soon forget about it.

Wait for the Samsung Within. It just cleared the FCC today!! I can't wait.
I will likely be a EVO lifer. I purchased the EVO 4G on launch and bought the EVO 3D on launch, like many on here have previously stated. I loved my EVO 4G and I love this phone as well.
With or without root (which will come) this phone is beastly. I cannot guarantee that you will like it since I do not know of your previous phone history/preferences but I am assuming that your not a stranger to the smartphone/Android/HTC arena?
Thanks for the replies guys. Also I would like to know what defects should I look for in the phone b4 I can take it out of the store.

Great phone but with Sprint's version of the GSII (Within) just passing through the FCC yesterday I would personally wait a few weeks. Looks like the GSII is coming soon. I personally will be getting it but I walk around with 2 phones. If I only had one upgrade I would wait till you get a firm release date so you can at least have that 30 day window in case you don't like the 3D & want to go with the GSII (Within). But both are great phones so I guess the decision is ultimately whether you prefer Samsung over HTC. I personally think Samsung wins the hardware battle just sucks when it comes to software and support of their products. Also the big time devs are in the 3D's corner right now.

Go with HTC
Had the Samsung Epic and gave up on Samsung providing any updates over a year or more. Always saw HTC updates in the forums. I will not be done in again by sightly better hardware verses superior software support. I'm in HTC's camp from now on.

Why is everyone so hot for S G2 ? I LOVE the 3VO

After owning the EVO-3D for a month, I am really digging it, Sense 3.0 is growing on me, and the phone is no slouch, it is crazy fast, and the battery life is ****ing amazingly better than my rooted and ROM'd EVO 4G. At first I wasn't so impressed with this new phone over my ROM'd EVO 4G, but now I am liking it more and more. And it's still stuck in lame stock mode, just wait...
But I keep reading all over the net how awesome the Samsung Galaxy S2 is, and it's the best device on the market right now, etc..nothing comes close to it, blah...blah...blah...
I think once the 3VO gets root, and the custom ROM's start popping up, it will be the better device or easily just as good as the Galaxy S2 ? Plus it looks like here in the U.S. we might be getting a crippled S2, instead will be a dual core Infuse 4G with Gingerbread, as opposed to the real true Galaxy S2 in Europe.

well evo 3d is nice, but there's this hudge problem with htc. whenever they make a phone a 1st it comes out with full of bugs + they will promise you bunch of accsessories that they will never make and at the end consumer is the one in the hole, because we trusted them. Don't get me wrong I love my evo 3d, but I don't want to by MHL adaptor from T-mobile and I want a normal cable, and I want the HTC's promised kickstand case that they fkt everyone on I hate bolky cases that make already big phone look like some old satelite phone. so far I think is Motorola is ahead of everybody. they update there phones first to latest android version, they have bunch of grate accessories like multimedia docks with remote controls, laptop dock, cases, cables and more. and the lates phones hardware is pritty impresive as well. so as much as I like my evo 3d I think it is a last one I will ever get. I bought my phone on june 24th so there's no 30 day mbg for me, but I thing Ill just pay full price and get that motorola photon on july 31th. sorry had to get that out of my system I bought only htc's for past 5-6 years but just got tired of geting jurked around by them.
I think a lot of it is just the next new thing fever. It will happen every time a big release comes out. I love my 3d too but as a gadget freak I enjoy seeing what is coming out and I would own them all if I could
Apple sucks ballz
The main reason why I want to switch is because the Evo 3D won't sync contacts to my car.
I heard the SGS2 has no problems with their BT 3.0.

This is the correct choice. Sprint is due for a new phone, and anything you get right now will be outdated soon. The Nexus S is your best bet for a relatively affordable phone off-contract right now, because it's already got ICS unofficially, and behind the Galaxy Nexus, it'll likely be first to have it officially as well.
Don't get an Evo 3D. The 3D is cool, but barely anybody can view the photos and videos you make with it right now anyway, and the difficulty it apparently adds to development has choked our dev community when compared to other phones. It's frustrating.
Just make sure that is not a Samsung phone....couple of friends at work have the new epic touch and i havnt heard anythin good about em
And yea just get a watever phone and hold your upgrade like that you can get a way better phone in the near future...
I have the Evo 3D and honestly i have no complaints but thats up to you
Use your upgrade wisely!

I would go with a 3d just for one reason Samsung does not update there phone fast enough. My wife had her epic since day one and a few weeks ago she got 2.3. While the og evo had 2.3 six months earlyer go with HTC but that's just me

this is the best answer that you could give. good idea! ive seen a nexus 4g on craigslist for 200 at the most in good condition. im thinking about getting one in addition to my evo 3d haha.

Should I regret choosing EVO 3d over Sensation?

What's your opinion guys? Anyone with similar thinking?

EVO was a bad seller.unpopular and no community.Sensation on the other hand is goiing to get ICS with sense 4 shortly and will be getting another firmware upd ateafter ICS but the EVO will only get ICS later on in the year and will be the last update whilst being heavier and has a pointless meaninless 3d,

Sense 3.6 not 4.0 on the sensation BTW. This confirmed by Jeff Gordon in a recent interview, who is in charge of global communications for HTC...also the guy is around this site too and posts some.
If 3D is pointless to you and you want to knock the device then why get it in the first place.
To the OP that choice is up to u as everyone has their own belief on it. It's like saying if u should get HTC or Samsung phone...endless debate and only one opinion matters and that's ur own.

It doesn't have the same impact as the OG Evo did on me (that being my first ever decent phone) but it's still a pretty solid phone. Been able to run ICS on it since I got it after the New Year. I see very little wrong with this phone.
Devs for the Evo are better. 'nuff said. Yeah. Thats right. I said at it. And I'm a badass too. Come at me.

This is a true statement. Some of the devs have been with us for a while being that they've stayed with Sprint all this time. We start getting to know everyone.

EVO was a bad seller.unpopular and no community.Sensation on the other hand is goiing to get ICS with sense 4 shortly and will be getting another firmware upd ateafter ICS but the EVO will only get ICS later on in the year and will be the last update whilst being heavier and has a pointless meaninless 3d,

Everything in this post, except for the timeframe of ICS updates, is so untrue. Just saying.
I was drawn to EVO 3d becouse of its design, like it more than Sensation. Having 1gb of rom, opposite to Sensations 768mb, was a one more reason to have it. Not to mention that it should be HTC's flag ship. When all started heading down hill, seed of doubt was planted. Wanted to hear other people opinions.

Love my evo, just not happy with sprints data speeds in my area, sensation is getting ics sooner which doesnt make since to me, what do i know though. I never really use the 3d feature. Sprint has some catching up to do service wise. If i was in the market now for a new phone and carrier, i would look elsewhere. Im not hating sprint or evo. Dont take it that way. In my area, dataspeeds are horrible, may be ok for you though if your in a major metro area.

The 1gb of RAM compared to the sensations 768Mb did it for me. Usually its not a huge deal...but c'mon we're talking about two sense phones here lol.
I personally do like the 3D feature of the device two, pretty much to the point so far where I might only purchase another phone if it had 3D (which is unlikely since im a minority)
If I were you, I'd get the Sensation because it has a bigger user base = more devs.

This.
Go where there is a more robust developing community. Not bashing anybody who develops on this phone since they made my EVO 3D a beast, but I realized that huge International phones like the Sensation and GSII are miles ahead in getting things done.
Guys, why did some of you buy the Evo 3D first hand at all - if not of for the 3D?
THAT should've been the main reason - best 3D compared to any other phone, and good overall performance for everything else (save the battery ). I was "back then" really drawn to the Sensation, but it had NO 3D. I'd have almost bought the LG, but luckily was saved by HTC
I never expected it to catch on, because the people apparently see 3D only as a gimmick (sic!), and a low priority one as that..."3D? Uh, yeah, cool... but does it play Angry Birds? Show me!"...
So, lessons learned: Next time buy the phone you need... I hope my 3D stays with me a long time.
Cheers

Because of the hardware inside, not the screen, or sense. Well at least for me, it was the best option when going the price to performance route.
