seriously, do we need another one of these threads?
btw the general consensus is that since this is the amaze forum, most people here will say the amaze is better, just like most will say the gs2 over in the gs2 forums...

Go with the SGS2 if you want a bigger screen with blobs and ghost lines everywhere.
Go with the Amaze if you want an awesome phone with the best camera available.
You like the sense 3.5

Please keep the comparos coming. I have a MyTouch 4G which was having screen issues, so T-Mobile swapped for the Sensation, but I just don't like it. I don't like the shape of it. I don't know. I just don't like it, but loved the MyTouch 4G. I ordered the Amaze yesterday, over the SG II, and need some confirmation from you guys that I made the right decision. I am going to go in the store and take a look at them tonight.
You'll love it!!!! My brother has the galaxy s2 and I don't like how it feels. Amaze Is not THAT bulky like reviews say. It's perfect

Both phones have screen issues, but the sgs ii issues can NOT be fixed.. ours can, with a download of a free app The rooted version that people are talking about uses more battery than screen filter for the people wondering.. well it uses 2mb more of RAM so i think so xD

The Amaze appears more rounded and sleek than the Sensation and it has lines that probably come a little closer to the MT4G. The SGS II is a rounded rectangular slab. I prefer the looks of the Amaze.

I prefer a heavier phone. Put a well-built phone inside of a case that grips well and it just feels more secure in your hands.
I tested out both phones quite a bit before making my decision a couple weeks ago and ended up purchasing the Amaze. I couldn't stand the resolution on The S2 .....it was terrible, that and didn't care for touchwiz and overall the phone felt cheap.
This phone is definitely heavier, which I love! IMHO looks better built and is faster. I have a buddy with an SgS2 and can't get but 8 download and 2 upload on same newtwork to where I have almost hit 20 a couple times and 8 upload!
Love this phone!
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using Tapatalk
I'm glad to see that you hit 20 on download with the Amaze, because I was a little worried, as I was in a T-Mobile store tonight, comparing the two (I order the Amaze yesterday), and somehow the Amaze had gotten network locked, so I could test it, but the Samsung was hitting 18M down and 3 or 4 up. I was hoping that I had not made the wrong decision on getting the Amaze. The white SG II looks awesome though, very awesome. I'm a fan of the sleek looks, like the IPhone 4/S, not all of the grooves and lumps of some phones, so the SG II looks great to me, http://galaxy-s.t-mobile.com/samsung-galaxy-s2#/gallery .

I have an Epic 4G, was going with the Touch BUT! I just bought me an Evo 3D from ebay. I think the masses believe in HTC. They are just better built and from what I see here, have more support. Mines in the mail baby, I'll be joining you all here soon.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
I really dig the Photon and the SGSII is nice as well. But for me, Sense is where it's at. Plus the Dev support is fantastic and exceeds that of the Sammy and MoPho in my opinion.
I had the opportunity to go Photon or Evo3D. Went Evo3D. No regrets. The community really ha made this phone a beast. Before root, I must admit I missed my Evo4G... Not anymore. 3D is neat, but ultimately a gimmick in my humble opinion. The dial cores are fast. I'm running Eternity on mine and it is buttery smooth. To the battery issue.... I chew through them. SIMPLE and CHEAP solution. Ebay up a set of 3 spare batteries and a battery charger for $20. Cha ching!
E3D'ed... Booyah!
Wow you guys are really convincing me to go with the evo3d

Sarcasm? lol Play w/ it for a good long while and choose from there. I'm still thinking of trading in my Evo 3D for an Epic Touch 4G... but I have heard nothing but problems from peeps on these forums regarding said device. LOS; cheap build quality; software issues after root, etc. BUT I have also heard nothing but good things about the screen/camera/phone's fluidity.
I've played w/ the ET a couple of times... I've never had any issues w/ it at all while handling it and the fact that the phone FEELS so much smoother than the Evo 3D really makes me want to make the switch.
Anyway, the Photon beats them both for phone stability and build quality but the interface is very bogged down/laggy and the dev support is pretty damn scarce.
Make the right decision. :3
I figure the battery is the same as epic touch which is bad so I would go have look for quality and I know the evo3d has some weight to it which is fine with me epic touch looks like its poor quality any thoughts

Really depends on what ur coming from. I mean its a bad ass phone for sure but I think I could have been just as happy sticking with my 4G EVO. I love my 3d don't get me wrong. It's fast and reliable for sure. The 3d feature is cool at first but i don't really find any real use for it. Definately love it but think about this too, LTE phones should be coming out one after another starting next year. Depending on what u got now maybe u should wait and see what's new in the first quarter.

If you've held out on upgrading this long, I'd go ahead and wait for Sprint to start releasing LTE devices next year. That would suck if you upgraded now, right before the end of the year and in 6 months LTE devices come out and Sprint's new LTE network starting to become operational, and you're stuck with a WiMAX phone for 2 years.

Yes!! 2 Evo 3D's here for almost 5 months. 100% satisfied. My wife upgraded from Hero to Evo Design 4G 2 weeks ago and that phone is awesome. Go play with all the phones and buy the one that blows your skirt up. Grandpa always said "never buy anything that doesn't excite you". Good luck!!

Which would you chose? im happy with my Amaze 4G and some may not like sense but i think it's very nice. I've owned a i9000 and a Captivate before so i know a little what its like, but the amaze has a bigger resolution, better camera, and looks wise its nicer. The only thing that galaxy s2x (hercules) or T-Mobile S2 in the states has over amaze is larger screen, super amoled and its lighter. thats just my opinion, share which one you prefer, i know this is in the Amaze Forum and might be a little biased but yeah

Looks like as always, tmo will play red headed step child to att. We get one S and they get one X. We can always unlock I guess.. I'm keeping my amaze. I love it. Only things I can't do that I've noticed is run an aosp rom and flash a new splash screen. Oh well

honestly i love the amaze, and coming from the g2x which was aosp, i personally prefer sense over aosp, aosp is very plain and ugly. lol and i dont know why htc made it so ugly for 4.0 i personally dont like the new sense.anyways this device is so good! i love the camera quality i have never seen any thing better from a phone atleast.

Damn...so that means we will have to deal with you in the Evo3D forums for atleast another month?
Galaxy S3. I am looking for something new.
I never thought i'd say this...but my next phone might be a Samsung. lol
I really wish HTC wasn't soooo blind and/or blatantly anti-consumer. It seems like Samsung got everything right with the gs3 while the new line of HTC phones still have quite a few things that I really don't like about them.
I haven't finalized my decision by any means, but as of now, i'm definitely leaning towards the GS3.
Everything was looking so good right up until the screen...F That crap...not even going to give pentile display a 2nd thought after seeing the Galaxy Nexus up close.

new evo ... locked in battery
gs3 for me
The answer would be easy if HTC would listen to the community. But since Samsung makes their devices developer friendly its a hard not to go with them. Even with the screen quality being less than the Evo LTE. The Evo is guaranteed to be locked and I can't stand being restricted. HTC also doesn't give out source code so our devs can't build functioning roms. Thats why I'm leaning Samsung
Coming from the rezound in June. I was happy with the way the one x looked and thought that's what I'd be getting, then the evo let design came out. It kind of bummed me but it's growing on me. The sg3 just doesn't have a good enough design for me. I like the lte's look better. Still wish it looked like the one x though :/. Oh well I still can't wait.

Just wondering what phone everybody came to the S3 from? There seems to be a lot of people from the Epic 4G.
If you came from the touch, what made you switch? I find it very similar.
OG Epic. I've never gotten a phone on release day tho, kinda weird.
Motorola Photon. It wasn't a very nice phone and had a lack of Devs and Themers. Learned how to theme because of that phone, so I have to give it some respect.
I just came from a Sanyo Katana eclipse...but that was technically a temp phone. Before I use to have an HTC Evolution Shift. Its a great transition from a small screen!

1. Get the iPhone 5 and sell it to make a profit and keep using my amaze
2. Get the HTC one the processor isn't much faster than the amaze and the camera isn't as good and it also lacks SD card slot
3 get the nexus 4 16gb looks pretty nice quad core processor and is aosp but still lacks an SD card slot
4 keep my amaze and wait till it craps out.
What do you guys think? And I checked out the HTC one forums and saw sports on there so I personally ask you sports how's the HTC one

Just went through this. New HTC one is very fast, don't let mhz ratings fool you. Go use the phones until the sales guy kicks you out.
I tried new htc one. Old htc one, nexus 4 and LG Optimus g cousin, s3 and note 2. All much faster than amaze. All great phones.
In the end because I didn't want to lock into contract, nexus 4 and LG Optimus g were hundreds less than the rest. Went with Optimus for LTE. Arrives this week.
Hoping when s4 is finally on display in my area I don't regret it. Based on reviews like trusted tech heads at arstecnica the new LG Optimus g pro phablet is the benchmark king. Out shortly if you like the size.

I've been using a HTC One for the past couple days and it's really fast. The front speakers sound clear and pictures are all right. The phone has no grip though so you might want to pick up a case on Amazon. The profiting from an iPhone sounds like too much work for not enough money. The Amaze is still quick for most things so unless you hate it I think you should keep it.
Go with the HTC one. It's great and development is amazing! Battery is also awesome. I get 4hrs screen on time! Sense 5 is also very fast and minimalistic making it an aosp like Rom that just tons of extra features!
I upgraded from my amaze.
You can also use the HTC logo as a Menu button so you won't lose screen realestate from an on screen menu button.
