Neat story. I used my EVO for a few days and this phone is definitely a big improvement. I guess it depends on what you consider an upgrade is. This update is as incremental as any... Anyone here use iPhones in the past? Do you recall the updates? Basically the same damn phone until the iP4. I guess technology just hasn't moved all that far in a year to appease everyone.

Why? His reception, speaker volume, 3G signal strength, and camera quality, are likely better now.
Who cares? You dont like it take it back. Why do people come here and report it everytime?
No one gives a ****.

There's no denying the dual core 1.2Ghz processor is faster than the first Evo. That alone is enough of an upgrade IMO. And I think the camera quality is better on my Evo 3D than the Evo 4G. I'm taking pics side by side and like the richer colors on the newer Evo. Battery life has been better too...although, Sprint's signal has been sucking as of late on any phone so can't blame that on the Evo.

Sprint claims that their "technicians are looking into this" blah blah blah "towers" blah blah blah....I am suspicious that it's about lowering radiation standards in reaction to a well publicized 'best/worst of: radiation: thing that was published a few months ago that some people took rather seriously...in addition to some cancer studies regarding cellphone frequency radiation that were also rather compelling....
data-speed wise I was told that "our computers are having trouble with phone swaps" which would explain why getting your line re-provisioned has pretty good results...and the cdma/auto trick is likely leftovers of a botched profile provisioning.
The evo4G has bigger pix, the evo3d has sharp pix, better colors...the low-light performance seems crappy on both--we've heard both sides of the fence from, well, both sides of the fence.
but, damn, DAT RESOLUTION.
The 3d felt faster, and had a sharper screen. It also had more ROM space.. but not enough..
I have my Evo 4g hacked so that the partition sizes are customized - i.e. more space for /data, less space for /system and /cache - this was giving me 700mb usable space for /data.
The evo 3d, despite having 4gb ROM, only had 1gb available for /data (so not much of a difference.. )
I have never managed to take a decent 3d picture on it..
Battery life - was expecting it to be better then the evo.. but it's about the same, running similar apps (obviously w/ sense on top on the 3d)
RAM - obviously the additional ram helped in being able to run more apps without the apps closing in the background.. but the evo was good enough..
Kickstand.. I know it's a small point, but I really missed the kickstand. we have a wifi baby monitor, and use the evo all the time w/ the kickstand while on the couch/etc.. Missed the evo 3d not having the kickstand
Button layout - I love that the evo 3d has a shutter button - BUT it made it incompatible with my vehicle dock (the volume buttons or shutter button kept getting pressed while docked). In the ~3 weeks that I had the evo 3d, I had taken probably 300 pictures on it (we just had a newborn.. and the best camera is the one in your pockeet already..) - started w/ 3d pictures first few days.. switched to 2d pics later.. and found myself using the onscreen shuttter more often then the hardware butto.
HDMI - I already have the hdmi cable for the evo.. would have had to buy the adapter for the evo 3d..
Overall, I felt that the evo 3d was an ok upgrade, and was definatey faster (especially while browsing) - but.. personally i would rather skip this one..

Email I sent to VIP escalations asking if NFC was built into the chip and night vision camera.
I don't think I'm going to miss the kickstand too much
Might just be me, but I swear the layout on the screen looks so odd, like the app/icons are adjusted weird or however you'd like to word it...
Other then that, it looks great!!
I think it looks good but I wish it had a kickstand. I'll getting it regardless. Can't wait till Summer! Hopefully they'll give us more of a demo!
I didn't think the kickstand would be for me until I started propping it up on my desk while doing work. It was easier to pick up phone calls via bluetooth while looking at it. I really want to see how the camera shots look and what kind of lens they are using. I think the camera bezel is huge and unnecessary but whatever.
What is the shell/casing made out of?
There was a kickstand accessory for the View, and i wanna say the guy said there is one for the 3D too.
The demo from drdrewdown is awesome. This phone is totally badass.. you can completely shut 3d off if you like... they said display looks much better than the original EVO.
My only concern is battery life... but I htink I'll begetting this phone.
Yeah, whats up with the lack of a kickstand? BSOD mentioned it still has one, but I do not see it. He also mentioned NFC, but I've not seen that mentioned anywhere else yet either.
Looks good I thing they should have gone more plain style like the iPhone 4 tho(look), I'll miss the kickstands, I hope the video quality is better then my current evo, this is what the nexus s should be ha ha, definetely going to get it tho

That's because of the higher resolution screen
BSOD stated the NFC but who knows if it's included in the chip but not enabled. Also I could care less for 3D since the only thing I would be able to play it back on is the Evo. At least now people won't ask you if you have an iPhone when they see that huge camera bezel in the back.
I can imagine people selling screen protectors for the back and the front.
I'll miss the kickstand a lot. I love propping up my phone since i keep it naked and want to minimize scratching the camera lens.
So does this have the adreno GPU?
The one thing that BSOD mentioned that I was really excited about was WiMax+LTE. Unfortunately, I didn't see anything about that mentioned during the liveblog on AC.
It's an awesome phone, no doubt about that, but I'm definitely not as excited about it as I was before. With the way things are going here in San Diego, it seems pretty much pointless to pick up a new phone that only has 3G/WiMax, as it doesn't look like we'll get WiMax anytime soon.
When is this phone scheduled for release or is it unknown ATM?
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
So about those facts BSOD posted, which I said were incorrect.....
The phone is sick, but the EVO View truly surprised me. It's awesome. Anyway, adios.
looks kinda less sleek then the original evo to me...No kickstand is huge for me I use that like 100 times a day at least lol...Loving the internal specs tho wow that phone is a beast...damn decisions decisions lol

Just sometime in the summer.. No specific month unfortunately.
My guess is around when the original Evo was released.
I think I am sticking with my launch day EVO. Not really impressed by the EVO 3D. EVO View seems kind of useless.
(As they do on Howard and a few others)....to keep if off 'general'.
This is a natural instinct (to compare a product)...but there are a ton of E3D owners here who are incapable of hearing of issues people are having, or comparing it to other phones without dumbing the thread down to schoolgirl name calling)...when those should be fair topic game on this forum. I mean this forum lacks civility more than any I've ever seen...by far! Yes there's trolling yes there are a ton of repeat threads, blah blah... It can still be handled without blatant rudeness.
Anyway, I know nothing will likely come of it...but I want to throw that idea out to mods: all comparative discussions with other phones/'dogfight' topics have its own section.

Im so sick of this vs that threads. It always turns into splitting hairs, trolling and personal attacks. Especially when it involves Apple. Its all about personal preference on what you want for a phone.
But yea most of the time I wont even open and read those horrible threads.
People can't even figure out what goes in the development section, you seriously think something like this would ever work.
I am more sick of reading these new threads that say absolutely nothing. If you want to make suggestions to mods, then PM them. Do you really need to start a new thread here?
@OP
You don't even have this phone anymore. You said you traded it in. So why are you still lurking around here like some crazy stalker? Most of your posts about the phone have been somewhat negative. So.....
Sent from my 3rd Dimension of Evolution
I'll engage you OP. I think this is a great topic if we can keep it civil and technical...maybe a couple observations.
The Evo3D was great in many ways:
Battery Life: Fantastic for a stock phone
Performance: Fantastic for a stock phone
Camera: Awesome in good light. Much improved audio quality while recording videos, also in stereo.
Fit and Finish: Top notch. Felt solid, had a good weight to it without being heavy.
Screen: Stunning resolution and as 'reference quality' color as I've ever seen a cell phone screen...and it's huge, which I love.
3D Feature: Actually I found the 3D effect very compelling (even though I thought I'd never use it before the phone came out). 3D video and pics are actually awesome.
Wifi Radio: much stronger than my E4G. Full bars at home no matter where I went. My E4G never fared that good.
Sense 3.0: Very improved polished interface.
3G Radio: Weak Weak Weak, but consistently held a signal when it got one which, to be fair, was most of the time. Great 3G speeds when connected, even with no bars once locked on.
4G Radio: on par with my EVO4G
Custom Roms: nuff said...for now
That said, I did return it and got a Nexus S 4G:
Battery Life: Also excellent for a stock phone..on par with E3D
Performance: Also excellent for a stock phone..surprisingly on par for only a single core.
Camera: Absolutely amazing camera compared to E3D. No contest. Though video isn't 720p but WVGA at max. Advantage NS4G
Fit and Finish: The build quality is acceptable. It's extremely light, though feels cheap compared to E3D. Advantage E3D.
SAMOLED Screen: Fantastic contrast and vibrant color. Very bright and especially usable outdoors. Also has a huge viewing angle. The curve is barely noticable in use. Considering how different (and awesome) these screens are from eachother I'd call this one a draw....apples meet oranges.
3D Feature: Nonexistent Advantage E3D
Wifi Radio: Sucks. Far worse than even the lackluster performance of my E4G. Advantage E3D
Stock Android Experience: I personally prefer this over Sense--but that is a matter of personal preference. This is also a draw for that very reason.
3G Radio: Just as weak as E3D, on average...though most of the time appears to have a stronger signal than the E3D did for me. HOWEVER, this phone sucks at holding a signal. Lots more dropped/missed calls than the E3D and TONS of data stalls and slower 3G speeds all around. Advantage: E3D
4G Radio: also sucks abysmally.
Custom Roms: CM7 installed in minutes after arriving home. A decent dev community...netarchy kernels (65fps!), MIUI runs fantastic...Clear advantage NS4G...for now.
In summation, even for being a whole technological generation behind the NS4G is a very very worthy contender. It is smooth as hell bone-stock, I'd even go so far as to say smoother than the E3D...and one netarchy OC kernel later it blows away the E3D. But this is an unfair trait to compare for the time being. (Though 3549 quadrant is pretty awesome). The camera on the E3D can't compare, however the lack of 3D on the NS4G can't either. The E3D camera, while not as good, isn't so bad that I'd consider it a deal breaker for me..it still performs very well. It is a cellphone after all.
The NS4G is also made to be unlocked (if you wish)...so it just isn't fair to compare that trait. Judge that based on how important it is to you...it's very important to me.
However the completely crap signal acquiring and holding abilities of the NS4G (and lack of update which was due on 7/11 but has been cancelled) have ensured that it will be going back promptly. I can't even wait for the SGS2 to be announced, nor will I get a locked motorola with no certain future at any date. The E3Ds radios are nowhere near as bad, and I'm certain a radio update will fix it up just fine.
The 3D isn't a deal breaker for me either--but I do really miss it. Just sayin'.
In my eyes the E3D is a clear winner in this competition...given the lack of a compelling dual-core phone coming out any time soon and the fact that I cannot keep missing calls I will be back on bored after work tomorrow...which sucks cuz this NS4G has realllly grown on me, but, that radio is just too weak to bear.

Are you asking us to make a decision for you or what's up?
I don't get it.
i'v seen the AMAZE and i kinda like it's design but i dont know jack about it
i'v heard it has "the best camera",and Camera is my "soft spot".
what im asking is this :
should i change my SGS2\9100 to the HTC AMAZE? what Cons & Pros
they had? :|
hope that was answering your Q
Camera is awesome, you will need to put a piece of electrical tape between the sensor and light (there is a whole thread on it). This is because of a design flaw which lets light in underneath the cover between the sensor and led flash which leads to a washed out/lighter right side of the photo if you are taking a photo in darker conditions. After its taped its fine, it was the first thing I did after noticing it.
The camera has a ton of options, Im not too sure what the SGSII has but I've also read a bunch of reviews on camera comparisons between these 2 phones and the iPhone 4s and iPhone and Amaze were given the best ratings although the iPhone has less options.
Backlight bleeding on the amaze from the bottom where the buttons are. You can download Screen Filter and turn off the light for these buttons which solves the problem although your buttons wont light up, doesnt bother me though. Theres also a thread on this with pictures.
The battery is a little lacking on the amaze (the screen consumes the most). So if you dont turn it on a lot it will last for a decent time. Flashing custom rom (Quiksense 3.0) also helps.
The build quality seems to be much better than the SGSII. I like the dedicated buttons (not sure if SGSII has a camera button).
If camera is very important to you I would go for the amaze, although the GSII is still decent.
Bigger batteries can be ordered for around $20-30. This plus custom rom should be good enough for most. I get about a day avg. If I use my phone a lot for watching videos on the internet then I may end up having to charge before the day is over. I just flashed quiksense 3.0 yesterday so I will have to see how much it helps out.

Yeah the EVO3D camera is balls. It was a nice phone but nothing amazing after the 3d wore off. SGS2 was a better phone last year. This new EVO...wow, its camera is the tits. I'm very impressed. I have a new baby and having the automatic burst mode when you are trying to catch that perfect smile is just priceless.
Funny you say that I got the phone for the same reason I have a 6 month old and it would take my eve 03 d 5 seconds to focus this camera is awesome I love it now if I could figure out how to turn the flash off

The EVO 4G wasn't bad in ideal settings and for still shots. However, when trying to capture the perfect shot of say your newborn smiling, the EVO 4G didn't stand a chance- by the time the picture snapped the moment had long passed.

Paying about 15 bucks for the phone... THANK YOU BEST BUY..
I thought this was a thread about "Threads" getting stuck in the speaker grill.
Anyone notice that. The holes must be razor sharp or sticky, because I'm always picking lint out of the speaker grill.
Phone is good, but these issues take away from it.
WIFI issues are annoying
Removed buttons is driving me insane.
Power button shutting down phone in my pocket.
Other than that, it's pretty good and I'm mostly dealing with the issues above.
I love the kickstand too, however since the industry "smartened up" and realized they were killing the sales of docks, they moved the microUSB port so you can't charge while the kickstand is out in landscape mode... Meh.

I thought you were trolling like the guy above you, but surely you wouldn't troll your own thread!? Anyway the kickstand works both ways so you can charge while propped up in landscape. You can also prop the back up in portrait mode.

I've had this device for less than 24 hours, but here's my list so far:
1. Camera - leaps and bounds better than OG EVO.
2. The 'feel' of the aluminum (?) trim that goes all the way around the device, as well as the feel of the power and camera buttons.
3. Amazing screen
4. The camera lens is recessed within the 'bump' on the back, so no more scratches on my lens!
5. Kickstand that works both ways!
6. SD Card slot - sorry AT&T customers, the One X is missing this, and it's a definitely a deal-breaker.
6. Regarding Sense: the photos widget is so much smoother when swiping thru photos, and I like that I can have the weather forecast appear on my lock screen first thing in the morning, very nice touch there.
That's what I've got so far.
i am loving this phone... i still cant get enough of this beautiful screen, its amazing... phone is fast and connections are awesome... LOVING the battery life...
ive had no problems yet and am loving this phone... couldn't be happier

I thought you were trolling like the guy above you, but surely you wouldn't troll your own thread!? Anyway the kickstand works both ways so you can charge while propped up in landscape. You can also prop the back up in portrait mode.

Back to topic,
