I'm blown away by 3D couple of times I played with the phone in sprint store. Before seeing 3D in action, I was leaning heavily towards SGS2. SGS2 is thinner, faster, has better camera, 1080p recording and I like Touchwiz better than sense.
But 3D is tilting my decision towards Evo 3D. 3D images are cool. More than cool, I believe it adds real value to an image. Looking at 2D photos, I can feel that I'm missing something.
That brings me to my real question -
As cool as 3D is, how practical is it? I mean, I can take 3D pictures and videos for my own sake. But one of the real pleasure of taking photos in a phone is to share in email/FB. But I can't send 3D images to any one unless they happen to own a Evo 3D as well. No one I know has 3D TV or monitors (neither do I). There are no 3D tablets/laptops (yet).
My concern is, if 3D is not practical and the only way to view the photos taken in the phone is in the phone itself, I think after couple of months, I'll stop using 3D altogether and start regretting that I got this phone instead of SGS2.
What is your opinion? Is 3D a real useful feature or is it a gimmick/fad that you think you'll stop using after the honeymoon period?
If you take it in 3d its not stuck in 3d..
EVO was first with front camera and 4G now everybody is doing it..
I expect the same to happen with 3d, the tech is getting better and once these old people that only remember there terrible 3d from the 70's go away then adoption will boom
But i digress

The evo 3d is stereoscopic, right? I think it's mostly a gimmick, and the situation you described in the op are probably correct. Plus, the 3d function on my 3ds has already gotten a bit old. It can give headaches too.

I had to share this one. Really shows how good this 3D can be.

I'd say honestly that the 3D may seem gimmicky but honestly it's a nice feature to have. I honestly hardly use my camera. I rarely did on my evo, I rarely did on my epic. I'll probably rarely use it on my 3vo but the parallax screen function of the phone makes watching videos fun. Knowing that I have a camera that does 3D might inspire me to put more use into it. The 3D world has just been blown open thanks to HTC and also thanks to youtube for making it so easy to share the content.
I think that while I may hardly use my camera I will definitely be quick to snap up anything that seems nice and serene just for the sake of being able to share the experience in a more vivid way.
I would say be a part of the rEVOlution and get yourself the 3vo.
Hopefully other makers will start incorporating the parallax technology even if they don't offer the 3d cameras because there is a lot to be seen here.
A front facing camera was a gimmick till everyone had one. Putting 3D capability in more hands will make it more of a necessity than a gimmick. How many people out there wish they could watch 3D content but cant afford an expensive 3DTV? I paid $61 for my phone. If the technology is readily available for anyone it will catch on and at $199 or less it doesnt get more readily available than that. So much content is going to be uploaded of the next few weeks and months from this particular handset it will blow your mind. IMHO, it catches on in a big way.
3D is mostly useful when photographing members of the Handsome Boy Modelling School.
3d is great.. And the 3VO is actually faster than the SGS2 most of the time.. Or the same speed in some cases
How useful is it? 100% pointless. Very few people (relatively speaking) that you will be able to share them with with out handing them your phone. That was fun at 1st by the way. already 2 days in I'm sick of letting other hold her.
With that being said once more people get on board with 3D and I really do believe the will for TV and phones. Then it will be "useful".
How cool is 3d? Phenomenal! havent even taken a 2D video, or picture yet.
Not a gimmick just a gigantic 3D Cherry on top of your evo sunday.

thats about the coolest thing i've seen, wow
Sure, I know exactly what you're saying. Once the novelty wears off you have to be left with a device that is practical or great for everyday stuff.
If you plan on rooting, you may want to take into account the amount and types of developers that are active for each device. That's what kept me interested in the Evo 4g for the past year.
Honestly, for me, I know the 3D novelty will wear off pretty quick. But I prefer sense so I stick with HTC.
3d pictures are ok. The picture needs some setting up to be really good, I think... But watch some 3d stereoscopic videos on youtube. There are some bad ones, but there are some where the effect is very impressive. There was a ocean circus one that was very cool (can't post a link...)
I love the 3D pictures. Much better than I expected.

I have a 3D Projector and monitor. Can`t wait until there will be a GSM version for Europe!
I find the 3D very good. I am golf professional and today instead of using my normal camera to tap my lessons I used my camera so I could show them a full 3d playback of there swing. now only if it was about 3000 images a second I would be happy. That is what my High speed camera does.
Also I'm not for one to drop 800-4000 on a TV. So at $160 it is well worth it.

Between 2:10 and 2:25.
When I first heard about a glasses free 3d display I was pumped for a real 3D usage experience. Especially when considering the widget animations and now 3D carousel screen transitions in sense 3.0.
In the video above, precisely at 2:22, the HTC rep confirms that not even the new weather animations will have a 3d effect.
I for one am bitterly disappointed, I could care less about filming my girlfriends tits in 3d, or posting pics on Facebook so I can be boring in 3 dimensions to the 7 people worldwide that can actually view 3d content on their monitors.
I also can care less about mobile gaming, and will never spend a penny paying some company for 3d movies... although I might pirate them come to think of it.
So besides recording some 3d porn, I cant see a single use for this 3D screen...
Realistically speaking, what are the odds of a UI update, or a modded version coming to fruition? Will the 3D platform mature anytime soon? Or should I grab the superior (arguably) SGS 2 and revisit 3d in 2 years when content developers are taking it seriously?
If green hornet 3d is what I have to look forward to then they can keep it.
Please add your thoughts/rumors/reports.

They said in March when they revealed it that the UI would not be 3D, don't know why this comes as a shock to you now.
Plenty of Movies/Mobile Games will be more than enough 3D for you to handle. You'll be glad the UI is not in 3D anyway, it gets strenuous on the eyes. Its an effect that you're not supposed to be exposed to all hours of the day.

I was aware. That didn't preclude the possibility of incorporating 3d elements here and there. Furthermore, I'd like to know if anyone has heard anything about this being expanded.
Are there any tools in existence for creating custom content to build into a ROM, how feasible would that be etc.
The 3d effect only works in landscape. So a ui based around portrait use has no chance of working in 3d no matter who takes up the challenge.
Btw, I'd love to be proven wrong. I hoped the whole experience could be 3d.
Personally I don't really care ..the 3d to me is an added bonus ..I'm buying for the powerful specs and since Sprint gave me. Free upgrade I'm all for it..
Who cares whether you like the 3d or not, don't use it. It is an added bonus that you are obviously not paying for as the device is $199 after upgrade.
It would be exactly the same price if they removed the 3d feature so why do people really care! It is nit like HTC skimped somewhere else. For the people who say the 5mp camera, please do your research about mp's before making the stupid comment like many others keep making about it being a downgrade.
The EVO's 8mp camera blows and if they took the same EVO camera and made it 15mp's it would still blow, just larger!
when i first heard about glass-free 3D technology on mobile phones, i couldn't be more excited... waiting for the day i get my hands on an evo3D
and some time later, i heard news about samsung not making 3D phones, saying they don't see potential in making the devices... and then i was growing a bit skeptical...but not stirred (cuz samsung ain't exactly my cup of tea anyways)
today.. i went and tried a LG optimus 3D... and you know what? to my surprise... it's crap, pure marketing gimmick, it's like them 3D stickers, but with motion pictures, i am sorely disappointed in this technology and i imagine the evo3D would have similar affects.... now.... i'm planning to skip everything mobile 3D...
I could care less about the 3D as well. What makes this phone so great, is the phone itself. This is the best phone Sprint has had since the EVO which is why I think most people are excited about the phone. I am looking forward to seeing what Devs can do with this horsepower.
I will be interested to see if 3D apps start coming out over the next year. It looks like HTC is going let Devs produce apps made specifically for Sense and that might include 3D stuff. Right now there is very little too be that excited about in regards to 3D - but there is a lot of potential for some pretty cool stuff.
If this phone didn't have all of the other specs and all it had going for it was 3D then this phone probably goes the way of the Echo (dual-screen phone) but the amazing specs along with 3D is creating a lot of excitement.

Exactly, if HTC had not added the 3d and called this new device the EVO 2, I would bet that it would be exactly the same phone we are getting now minus the 3d. It would be the Sprint version of the Sensation.
I don't understand why people don't get.
Even if you don't like the 3D display, being able to take 3D pictures and video is pretty amazing on a phone that's $199. 3DTVs are still growing in market share, they're not going away. I myself have a pretty nice one, and the EVO 3D is coming out the day before my Florida vacation. Really looking forward to getting some nifty 3D videos.
Besides, they could be like every other manufacturer and come out with the "EVO 2" with just updated specs. The 3D functionality is a really awesome throw-in if you ask me.

I agree with everyone who wants the phone for its specs rather than for the 3D. For those who are surprised the 3D is not as good as theaters then anything I say to you, you wouldn't understand cause your just to damn stupid. (No need to say my grammur is wrong anywhere cause I dont give a **** and I add this cause whenever someone says someones stupid or retarded someone always says...its then not than, who's stupid now) The phone is gonna be sick and it has amazing potential to be even more bad ass than it is. 3D games.....fun. 3D movies......showoff. 3D pictures and videos........can't tell me you wouldn't have some fun with it. But with all the 3D effects gone, the phone is still equal to or greater that Samsung.
To actually address the wasted potential argument, I think we're all on these forums because we individually feel like every phone has potential beyond the stock versions.
As far as wasted is concerned, you can't really say it's wasted if there's no proven way to efficiently better it. I haven't really looked around, but I don't think there are many phones that are using the potential of 3D tech in a better way. Granted, you could say that every 3D device that will hit the market in a similar time frame may be wasting potential, i'm not sure anyone knows of a proven way to better it at this time.
3D everything would be great, especially if the 2D/3D switch could turn it off/on on the whole phone. but i don't think the tech is there yet.
personally, i'll be getting it because it's the best device for me, even without the 3D feature.

It's not about the quality, it's about the pervasiveness of the effect creating an experience vs. a little periphery functionality. I was hoping for 3D Sense 3.0 immersion, even to a slight degree.

Unfortunately, I was merely hypothesizing. I've been out of the loop for quite some time.
Not long ago, I started a thread comparing 3D phones LG and HTC.
The thread was closed since few of us were getting really nasty. I still feel though that since I was not really getting irritated by the Hot comments, the THREAD SHOULD HAVE continued but was nevertheless closed.
Coming to the point, and just in continuation of that thread.......
LG recently released a 3D app and game converter for the 3D phone. This means you can play ordinary 2d games in 3d. This adds up to already available 3d conversion tool for videos and photos natively built. If some of you will remember me saying that HTC is a phone with 3D screen and camera but not a 3d phone, will definitely recall what I was talking about then and what I am talking about now.
Of course some of us will still argue that 3d conversion is not that great, but that's not what we are talking about. We are talking about functionality and flexibility when comparing.
If 3d conversion is really that bad, why is there a 5 star rating for te 3d video conversion tool threading this forum for HTC evo 3d.
Guys, the idea of this thread and last thread was only to highlight to HTC through unanimous pressure that the eve 3d also needs to have these apps and features. The hardware is certainly capable, but HTC has kinda given up on development which is way too bad. Lets all push HTC to UNLEASH THE TRUE Potential of evo 3d.
Your correct...not again..if you want it...do it yourself.
Idk man, but I wish we had the game converter ported to our phone. I downloaded the optimus 3d rom, and extracted the game converter, installed on my phone, it actually loaded, showed angry birds but when I pressed it, I got a force close. I'm sure I don't have all the right files for conversion but it was cool seeing it load. Makes me feel there is hope for this I our evo's

Yes early development for 3d but its coming on fast.
htc should have bundled some native apps and games with it. Nevertheless, updates are always coming and i do hope we can enjoy the benefits of glasses free 3d.
I mean to start with, why cant we have a 3d wallpaper if the phone is 3d.????
The Evo 3D really needs more support from HTC. A game converter would be great. I think the Evo 3D has superior harware as the screen can also display 3D in portrait mode (even though the viewing angles in portrait mode for 3D are very poor), and a higher screen resolution. If only the software highlighted the capabilities as much as it does on the Optimus 3D. HTC made the 3D look like a gimmick, even though it has great capability.
What makes you think its HTC job to supply you with 3D games and features? The evo was the first to have 3D, a little too early because they wanted to be the first. Like people are saying its in early development. There are plenty of 3D games out there. Also you really want to view you phone in 3D all the time? Some would like that, but I bet many more wouldnt. All over these forums you see people saying they dont use the 3D camera because its useless outside the phone. And almost every ROM deletes the 3D spiderman game. The same goes with google video chat when it came out. What good is it if no one has the same phone or capabilities. Give them time, you will find what you are looking for!
Well to start with, ALL and i mean ALL phone manufacturers are now extending their services to support and apps. You can even notice that the android market has a HTC icon and HTC recommends and HTC likes features.
App store is coming on as a big time differentiator when deciding for phones. I doubt HTC can avoid that for long. Also FYI i think LG was launched earlier that HTC, but that does not matter.
What we have in our hands is a 3d phone minus cool 3d features that should be available in a 3d phone as are there in LG. I bet once the samsung galaxy 3d is out, the bar will be raised.
3d technology is new. All Hardware manufacturers are at this time introducing software and modules to MAKE IT LIVE LONG and create usability for their hardware. Thats the game. HTC must create this usability.

From what I read, an upcoming version of HTC sense will incorporate 3D into the ui. The technology is advancing quickly in terms of hardware, we will continue to see better and better glasses free 3D technology, but the software is advancing a little slower.

I doubt they will do that until there is technology advanced enough to work at all angles, not mess with your eyes, have HD 3D, etc.

just because it can convert them doesn't make it the best if its not really that great after i go for functionality and quality so personally just because they have more 3d stuff doesn't make it the best 3d device it will honestly come down to personal preference. one big comparison is apple to android apple has alot of goodies with there product but in my personal opinion android blows it away. i know there are still many people who disagree with me and thats fine but to me having all the extra stuff is simple gimmicky and once again comes down to functionality and quality that is why i choose the products i do and thats why i prefer the evo 3d to the rest.
Hello Guys,
Just wanted to get your inputs.
Is 3D the future for smartphones?
I know nothing is for certain these days as smartphone technology evolves everyday, but is it going to be the standards of future phones?
No trolls and weird answers like "you have to be a psychic to know the future" thingy please.
Thanks
I sure hope so. I hope it comes to tablets very soon. I love the 3D feature!

Got rid of my EVO 3D and I do not miss the 3D feature at all. I will be surprised if the next EVO release will even have it.
HTC needs to concentrate on using better 2D screens before they start worrying about 3D.
3D? What 3D? Our phone have 3D capabilities?
I think it definitely is. In the future we will see it evolve to a point where having a screen isn't even necessary (something similar to what people think of when they hear the word hologram). That is obviously way out, but will happen. Glasses free 3D was just an idea in someone's head 10 years ago. As hardware advances, software will dictate the popularity.
It all rides on the back of 3D televisions. If 3D televisions really take off, so will 3D smartphones. As things stand now, it looks like 3D media is going to take off (and take hold). Many movies are now made in 3D and the public is voting at the theater: it's not just a fad. And those 3D movies are movies you can watch on your Evo 3D.
Glasses free: already exists, even in larger sets. I don't think it'll ever be as versatile as the glasses but we have an LG passive set and the glasses are feather light and don't bother your eyes at all. It's nice to be able to get that special event in 3D on the Evo 3D. At school events, it's much easier to pick out your kid in the crowd when you have 3D video.
Maybe not for everyone like HD is, but it certainly has a future. The 3D capabilities of the screen certainly don't seem to hinder the Evo 3D. I happen to think it's one of the better screens out there.
Mike
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
I think its going to be a ways out. if it happens at all.
The technology is still in its infancy. Right now you have to find a sweet spot just to be able to see it with out getting eye strain. So far 10% of people i have showed it to have NOT been able to focus on it or view the 3D.
its a neat feature and i hope they expand on the technology but for now i dont see it being such a wide spread event. YET anyway.
Thanks guys for you inputs. keep them coming!
Just like mentioned in a previous posts, I think we'll see hologram-type phones within the next decade. The only reason why the 3D phone was made is because the 3D explosion in theaters. 3D is everywhere--movies, tvs, phones, gaming consoles, video games, magazines. One day, having a 2D will be like having a cassette tape, VHS, standard TV, or a flip phone.

I'd be pretty sad should they decide not to improve upon the EVO 3D in a year or so.
I'm curious as to what the sales have been like compared to other devices. I see a lot of vague negativity and dislike for the EVO3D, and a lot of people passing 3D off as a gimmick. After having this thing for some time now, I feel that if my next phone doesn't have 3D I'd be missing something, it could be a four-core 2GHz monster with LTE and a 720p screen, but I'd still have somewhat of a 'phantom-limb' for the missing 3D. I love the 3D aspect, I take my photos and videos entirely in 3D, I buy 3D games (as they slowly trickle out) I'd buy a lot more games if they had 3D versions (Notch, you can do it, add it to Minecraft!)

A bigger screen (4.8?), No 3D (I used it the first week), 8 MP camera (I don't want to argue about MP, it's just my opinion) and cm team members that know how to communicate with their followers.
That would make me happy.

I doubt there will be another 3D device from HTC as a successor to this one. Not enough marketing behind it to persuade me into thinking they want to continue down the 3D path. Hell they might skip over and go straight to 5D. Never know.

We didn't get jack to show off our new cool 3D phone.. there are no apps for it, nothing. I see a couple youtube vids that nmostly look like crap.
I really like the 3D part of the phone, but I could care less if I ever get another phone with it or not. There is absolutely nothing happening with it aside from a picture or 2 sometimes.
I think there will def be another evo3d. People really think that since they dont like 3d things that technology wont pass them up. I think that crazy to believe. I got my first touch screen in 2003ish. (6700) and everyone said that touchscreen was pointless. Wrong again.

I definitely think there will be more 3D phones. Companies are definitely trying to push 3D more and more these days.
I am happy to see the new Sony commercials pushing their new 3D products (tv, camera, video cam). That tells me 3D is gonna be around for quite awhile and more companies are going to embrace it.
I guess one of the sign-posts will be if: the next Sony or Nintendo portables have 3D screens (Vita's and 3DS' successors) and/or if an iPhone ever has a 3D screen. I doubt Apple would ever jump onto that bandwagon unless just about every other device out there has it.
I think there might just be two stumbling blocks to wholesale 3D adoption in devices:
The brightness of the screen. Some of them are just too dim when the parallax barrier is on.
The fact that the resolution is effectively halved in 3D-mode. The 3DS doesn't do this, 2nd-gernation 3D Android devices shouldn't either. There are screens out there that are QHD and even 720p with and without 3D enabled.
Was just wondering if there are any future 3D android phones in the pipeline? Quite like the look of the SGS III but will really miss the 3D, and there's no way I could get that phone without first selling this one.
So far have found no info of anyone caring enough about 3D to develop a new phone with it. Kinda sucks really, as I feel it looks beautiful in the correct lighting, etc, and 3D videos look really good.
As it is, I can see myself sticking with this phone for a while, but I feel I'll be waiting a long long long time to get a new 3D phone. Don't really want to go down the apple route either if they include it on their next device.
Only if and when iphone comes with 3d features

Unfortunately, I don't think anyone's going to produce a new 3D phone for quite a while. While our phones are great, the 3D stuff just hasn't taken off well enough for manufacturers to invest the money to bring it to a new device. Maybe when 3D TVs and other 3D tech takes off more we'll see a new 3D phone. I have enjoyed the 3D feature on my phone and I'm sitting out this round of new phones, but I may end up jumping ship for the next Nexus phone whenever that comes around.
For me, never again. The 3D is eye candy and a novelty that has kept development stalled due to the 3D stuff. The phone has been out a year and they still are having problems with Cyanogen being ported, all due to the 3D. I didn't get this device for the 3D, I got it for the dual core processor. Don't get me wrong, I love the phone but in the end I'll be looking at non 3D for the next one.

Actually its not cuz the 3d they really could careless cuz its not a dire need feature its cuz 4g now and the sense drivers for 4g the port hasn't been implemented yet cuz there needs to be drastic reverse engineering of them to get it up and running perfectly

I actually use my 3D ALL THE TIME! I have everything in 3D. *Active for tv's all the way. don't do passive!* However, agree that it hasn't hit because not enough people have the technologies yet. *ALL TV'S OVER 42 INCHES THIS YEAR ARE ALL going to be 3D* ALSO HTC MESSED UP! If HTC would have put more time into the development and compatibility with NORMAL USED FORMATS!, then it would have been much better.
HTC should have teamed up with the major TV companies like Sony, Vizio*yes vizio!*, LG, blahblahblah and made apps that could be downloaded on the tv's to transfer videos back and fourth. blhablahblahlahblahba anyway you all get my point.
3D phones will come back if HTC reads my comment. btw, ALL PHONES SHOULD BE ABLE TO DISPLAY IN 3D! then the special 3D phones should allow us to record in 3D. lol

Greetings, I am with you. I love the 3D effect, but I do not see an evolution of the EVO 3D. It hurts, but I will have to wait long for another party mobile 3d band. If Apple makes a phone 3d, I buy the apple mobile, I hope not. jajajajaja : Risa:
IPhones do have 3d in a nice slim form ;D

I find passive 3d is much more comfortable on the eyes. Have a constant feeling of unease when using active shutter.
I guess everyone's different.

3d most certainly not affects development. This has been said by many devs already...
