Just wondering I love my vibrant and screen but the specs on the doubleshot is awesome. And the main reason I would think of switching is the keyboard
I use swype so expect bad grammar and errors
I got a mytouch for my gf a few months ago. its a very nice phone but I couldn't get past the physical buttons and charger being on the bottom left.
This is the new slide coming out though check it out its going to be completely different
I use swype so expect bad grammar and errors
no.
I would wait for the T-mobile g3 if you needed a keyboard. I don't have any info on it, but espresso is a lame version of sense. But if you really want to type more accurately you should stop using swype. Just a though.
Nope. Physical keyboards are 90's tech.

Hell no. I don't see myself switching to any device that doesn't have equal audio quality (through headphones) to voodoo sound. The screen would also need to be as good or better. Looks like I could be waiting a while.
I'd only jump to SGSII. Other than that it's falling really.

Still has the same physical buttons
A physical keyboard is kinda Ninteys and adding a physical and a touch screen is overkill to me.

Why is everyone always about the mytouch. Please enlighten me I don't understand why everyone likes it so much. In my opinion it's hideous and it's also made by HTC which is a huge downfall to me. I just don't understand why everybody loves such a crappy phone.

HTC makes great phones, but I don't understand either. In this case, the OP wants a keyboard. I thought I needed a keyboard until I got rid of my G1.The first mytouch slide was a turd of a phone, and I can only imagine that the second one is going to be a lower-level device as well. I wish people knew that the stupid "genius button" is merely only the search button with a different label.

youre entitled to your opinion on the aesthetics of the phone but it is anything but crappy. build quality is great, everything functions fully, battery life is good and development community is booming. dunno how you define crappy..
Not anymore, only thing I want from MT4G was CM7, but now we have a CM7 that's stable enough for me.

Honestly the mts was nice but thr specs was garbage. I had one but traded it for a vibrant but I miss the keyboard. This new mt will be dual core 1.2 with a keyboard. Yes ill be sacrafising a great screen but I am "stuck in the ninties" I guess

I'm on my 3rd phone and I think its good... Knock on wood. If this phone has problems I might ***** and complain for a GS2 or even a Photon. Though I actually love the 3D and would hate to loose it. I don't use it much but when I do it's still shockingly cool, especially to other people.

Yeah I love this phone. My first one only lasted a week before the screen stopped festering touch right where the e key is so I traded it for a new one and now everything is all good.

What's wrong with a little positive?
Lol.... Kinda the reason why I posted the thread I did. Just wanted to make sure the devs here know I appreciate their work. They are the true backbones in the android world. Google had the idea first, but the devs over there unfortunately have to design it for everybody, not just us who like to tinker. So that's where communities like this one are so valuable, and why Linux/android was the best idea for smart phones since the smart phone was invented.... Everybody is happy.

Let me put it this way.
Virtually every single issue I had with this phone was software related, and with the 2.3.4 update from HTC, almost all of them are gone.
This phone is great and from a software standpoint, it's almost there too.
HTC EVO 3D 9/10 and easily the best phone I've owned to date.
But then again, so was the EVO 4G and Touch Pro2.
HTC EVO 4G 8/10
HTC Touch Pro2 9.5/10 (while it scored higher, this was due to how awesome HTC Sense and Windows Mobile 6.1 were for me at the time and its worldphone capability. There was nothing I couldn't do with that phone.)

My evo3d has been perfect from day 1.
I never had to do a return, and any issues that I did have, like crummy 3g, etc., were solved after a little reading on my part...(not by taking the phone back six times). Do I have a dead pixel? I don't think so, but if you held a magnifying glass to my phone and told me that I did, I wouldn't be surprised...(same thing goes for my screen possibly being tilted by one pixel as well). I seriously do not get it when I see complaints like that. I don't measure the pixels on a new TV, nor do I measure the carpet trim under the doors when I buy a new car, to make sure the "shag ratio" is correct.
So yeah, I'm still loving every bit (pun intended) of my Evo3d.

Just don't get TMO SGSII, that thing is a fake galaxy. If you ever buy a Sammy make sure it's using Cortex A9 or Exynos, don't bother with a Qualcomm Sammy phone. And buy the Sensation or Amaze, both are essentially the same excluding the internal storage, camera, and RAM size.
And there is already a MIUI THREAD. that did it Amaze it is. now just hoping tmo has black Friday sale. I'm not upgrade eligible, so I'm gonna wait til that Friday and hope for some luck. getting it either way, but on sale would be nice
AT&T currently doesn't have a phone that is powerful as the OG Galaxy SII. Sure there is the Note and SkyRocket but they aren't as powerful. I would like to know if this phone is still selling strong. I just bought one. But anyway, this seems to be the best phone AT&T has ever had. Maybe the iPhone 4s comes in second? What do you think?

Seems that everyone else doesn't want to play nice so I'll add my own opinion. I think that the only phone that will be able to give our phone a decent challenge will be the HTC One X when it comes to AT&T supposedly in April. It looks to be a pretty nice phone, hopefully AT&T doesn't mangle it too bad.

Will agree with this one, the only problem some of the other phones that AT&T carries is that they simply bloat them to death and it kind of gives the phones a bad rap when reviewed by alot of the review sites.
Would love to see a review where the majority of the phones are benched/reviewed side by side with stock firmware/rom's vs rooted/custom rom's
I came from a Motorola Atrix to this and it was a definite upgrade. Great phone, and imo atleast for NOW, its the best. I'm sure something will come along soon and trump it, but till then, we're the kings of the mountain.

It does look like a nice phone, and I would have probably gotten it as a 2nd phone if it had a micro sd slot. the S4 chip seems impressive, but I'm sure the next exynos chip will crush it though once it's released
Coming from HTC Dream (G1), it is a step up for me for SGSII. But of couse, AT&T screwed it up with how they managed this device (not reconized it as 4G..DUH!!!). HTC One X seem to be the up to the task to match up to SGSII. But then we'll have to see.
Well coming from an iPhone and inspire this way way way better then any phone I have ever seen att carry.like mention before the HTC one XL may be the only phone to challenge this one(maybe the rumored galaxy s3 ) but not being able to remove the battery is one of its downfalls .
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
Yeah the One X looks like the first HTC phone in a while that could hold up against the Samsung.
The GS III could be earlier this year than last year. If the att variant is as close to the international as the i777 was to the i9100, then the One X will be back-seated quick.
But, the Captivate is still pretty strong after two years. Heck, they had ICS before we did. I would guess the i777 will continue to be popular for about the same timeframe, 2 years.

"Powerful" is in the eye of the beholder. I love my GSII, it is way snappy, but if I am in the bay area (which I am pretty regularly) I cant take advantage of the LTE there. All depends on what you value.

Just what he says, with the SGS2 he can't take advantage of the LTE network. You need a Skyrocket for that.

The SD card slot isn't too big of a deal to me because of the fact that the phone should be coming with a 32GB internal storage which is what my S2 has with the SD card added. The non removable battery could be more of a problem if it has the typical HTC battery life. If I didn't have my S2 right now and was ready for an upgrade I'd definitely give the One X a chance.
Just read the specs on HTC One, unless I missed something, it looks like HTC made the display .2" bigger than the GSGII Skyrocket just so they don't look like they are behind Samsung. Ya it is a nice phone but not nice enough to leave SGSII.
So the road for me and my Evo 3D has been a short one, i've laughed and nearly cried over updates, parts of my phone which don't work (3D) and i've finally had enough of this piece of sh** and i'm off to grab a nice quad core sgs3 because i've also had enough of HTC sh**ting on me, i'd like some new sh** from samsung please.
On top of that I do like the One X
Does anyone have any relevant reason why i shouldn't make the switch to either of these belters? Besides the fact that i'd be running two contracts at the same time? As my evo has still got around 19 months left on it.

First off, don't blame HTC for updates, they already made it. Blame sprint. HTC gave them the ics update months ago.
And I say that you should get the one x. Because on Samsung, touchwiz is nice, but you end up missing sense afterwards.

I see your in London, is that correct? What is the shooter like over there on your network? I would think all this phone really ever needed was a decent 3g network and a dose of ics. I have been switching between myn's 2 roms (gb\ics) and meanrom and i think it still performs very well. If i had to switch i might lean towards samsung based on this article....http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/08/...s-iii-in-the-us-is-giving-samsung-a-backbone/
If you want lots of updates: Galaxy Nexus.

He's on GSM; you can't blame sprint. HTC is slow to update on all carriers. Lack of updates aren't HTC's only problem though, their other problem is using ridiculously proprietary hardware (so AOSP based roms are basically impossible) and the fact that they lock down their bootloaders and give you a really crappy alternative unlock.
I've moved on to the galaxy nexus, and I'm never going to get another HTC phone again.

Totally disagree. The Evo 3d is not a piece of ****. 3D works fine. HTC is not to blame here. The phone is as good as it was when you bought it. No need to insult it and HTC and the EVO 3d community now. HTC doesn't owe you anything.
There are other phones out there that are faster, bigger screens and so on. You are welcome to move onto anyone one of them. Go for it.
