"The so-fresh-it's-warm patent comes via PatentlyApple, showing a three-sensor concept (pictured above). The 3D images are created by combining views from two side-by-side images -- exactly the way human eyes see the world. We've seen it before now on phones like the LG Optimus 3D Max and the HTC Evo 3D with mixed results, but this is the first time we've heard of three sensors being used."

Guess HTC was ahead of the game... once its on iphone, 3D will be mainstream.
Apple patents 30 million things a day. They hardly use most the stuff they patent as of yet

oh yeah, evo 3d sucks do the iphone users say. 3d is not cool on a mobile device. i can here they screaming for 3d when an iphone will get 3d funktions like the evo 3d. yeah i can here the choirs singing ^^
bullcrap...apple users often got no brain to use
It's just how the smart phone game works... new tech is not considered cool unless it debuts on the iphone/iPad first....

This really isn't a big deal when they don't actually use the things they patent anyways.
If I had the money, I'm sure I would be buying patents all around the place too so I can later sue for infringement should they be violated. Insta-money.
But if they do it'll be the first of its kind ever on a smartphone. Atleast that's what Apple will claim and everyone will be awed...lol so sad.

Well, not to break up all the android love going on, but their patent is different. We've seen 3d before, but I guess this is a third sensor. It might be innovative and it might not be, who knows, but they better not say they were first with 3d.

Little background here. I don't buy Apple products. Nor do I use Apple's products unless it's an old iPod with the words HP on it. If I own a desktop/laptop, it's running some form of Linux (the weak Ubuntu ****), or the usual Windows XP/Vista/7.
The reason I bothered to mention this is because anytime anyone in my family gets a new phone, the Apple vs Google bull**** gets started up. Or Apple vs HTC. Or Apple vs Microsoft.
Basically the point where non technical in my la familia pretend they know everything about everything because they own every Apple product ever created since the iPod was introduced into the market. And its annoying when I am the techie and the software developer, getting into these arguments with basically Apple fanboys who just own alot of products that only come in the color white.
Yea im still rambling....the point is, I purchased the EVO 4G. Others in the family purchased the iPhone 4. I enjoyed a good year of verbal ownage when it came to comparing phones. The bottom line (so far from what we know) is that the EVO 3D has a 5 megapixel camera (2D) compared to a 8 MP camera on the EVO 4G. Sounds like a down grade to me. I know megapixels aren't the most important thing, but do you guys think it will compare well with the original EVO's camera, and more importantly (for my continuous family arguments) with Apple's phones? iPhone 4 has a 5 megapixel camera but its pretty nice, and i heard rumors of the next iPhone having an 8 MP camera. Are we moving in the wrong direction here or is 3D really that worth it?
I have the same concern... =)
Honestly if I had the evo I probably would not upgrade to the 3d. I'm moving up from a LG Lotus. However, I prefer the apple iphone only because I'm used to using my friends' when we are out. Worst case scenario is I sell the evo3d I'm getting if and when sprint gets the iphone 4gs.
Wait for SGSII, the camera is a monstrosity
HTC always has weak cameras

Yea I saw the images that were on picasa or whatever. Pretty bad, but from what I read, those were not 5 megapixel shots. I could be wrong, but it could still show some higher quality. And it couldve been a test device because I noticed some pics in that same picasa gallery with the same phone model, seemed corrupt (like only half the image was showing up).
But yea if the selling point is the cameras 3d, you would think its good quality. But HTC is usually cheap on that.

This review has plenty of good things to say about the camera.
http://www.phonescoop.com/articles/article.php?a=8329&p=4064
you guys that are talking badly about the evo 3d's camera should probably check out phone scoops review. in fact the reviewer said it was one of their favorite things about the phone and that the camera was great in both 2d and 3d
I really don't care if the camera is "amazing" it just better be better than the Evo 4g... if they cheaped out on the lense so that they could have 2 cameras for 3d that would be sooooooooooo lame.
I want to make a poll on how many people are actually interested in the 3d feature. I would opt for a non-3d, Evo 3d personally I just want the snap dragon, memory, and more battery
Are you still whining .....
Seriously ....read. camera is fine.

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.

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.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
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.

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.

It's kind of cool to show to people who've never seen it, but beyond that, I've tired of it. I wouldn't buy a phone based on its 3D capabilities (not why I bought this one either). I just don't think 3D on a phone is a killer feature.
Just wait until an iPhone comes out with 3D. I actually hope one does. Then it will force other phones to have it. As much as I hate Apple, they do have a place in the market. If they do something that Android doesn't have, like a NEW 3D phone, other manufacturers will almost be forced to do it.

I've used 3dcamera about 10 times.
It's just not worth it when 98% of my contacts can't view 3d. They can't send me 3d. Share a 3d image or vid on facebook no one can view it.
I was hoping for a 3d landscape GUI (sense) that didn't happen.
Only worth it for 3d games, and even then its not all that great.

I've said this before but I'll go ahead and say it again.
If Apple drops an iphone with 3D it will likely be a huge success. The main reason is because the people at Apple are smart/savvy and they will release enough 3D content to make it a real feature. The support will be there, apps, games, videos..it will prolly be loaded. The HTC/Android 3D is a complete and total joke..it was forgot about as soon as it shipped.
People will hate and say all the normal stuff they say about the iphone, but if it has more content, more stuff that makes you go "wow, that's cool" then it will by far and away smash the Evo 3D.
3D isn't going away. There will be 3D phones in the future.
Just because Sprint, who is notorious for making terrible business decisions, passed on a 3D phone, it doesn't mean the technology is dead.
I personally only take 3D pictures and videos. I will only buy 3D phones from this point forward. Buying a 2D phone at this point is similar to buying an SD TV.
When I buy the Avengers bluray, it Erik be the 3D version. When I but a new TV, it will have 3D. And when I buy a new phone, it will have 3D. If Sprint doesn't want to sell me one, fine by me. I'll just give someone else my money when I buy it and activate it somewhere else.
And hopefully it will be made by a company that actually believes in open source. HTC treats their drivers and source as proprietary and refuses to release it in a timely manner. That's the only reason it was so hard to get the 3D features working on custom ROMs, because HTC refused to release source and drivers for it.
Limited translation
The 3D feature is nice but with limited translation to any other platform, it's stuck in novelty mode. Perhaps once there are more devices and means of viewing the 3D content it will be a big deal.
LTE on the other hand not so novelty, better penetration into structures is desperately needed WiMax is sad in this area. I'm still dragging my feet on a LTE device until it's in my area though, not buying on a promise Sprint doesn't keep those very well and are rather slow when they do.

You're probably right about iPhone and 3D and content but, iPhone would benefit far more from a 4G variant and larger screen, that would quiet us Android users down a notch and really excite iPhone fans...it might even convert a few folks. 3D would just be cute fad.

yeah man like this battle is epic...http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/28/apple-strikes-licensing-deal-with-motorola-in-germany/:cyclops:
Decided to start this to start this to see if many people actually care about it considering that its not the best 3d out there. I know devs work super hard on getting all features on the great ROMs they bring us to feed our flashing addiction lol so by no means am I bashing or anything like that. Just curious to see how many ppl are crazy about it 3d.

Are you referring to our phone (as one of its nicknames is 3d) or the feature?
If your referring to the phone than I love it, while the 3d has gone through its rough times development has picked up and is amazing. At least for cdma (I don't really go into gsm). Because of our awsome devs I kept my 3d instead of buying out my contract and moving on.
If your referring to the feature than in my opinion its a gimmick. I used it for like a week to show it off but that was it. There are rare occasions that I show it off but it's not anything I really care for anymore. I've pretty much moved away from sense and the ability to use 3d.

Yes I'm refering to the feature the actuall device is great and all the development that has recently emerged IS AMAZING! I sold my GSII to buy this Evo right before ICS update and I gotta say at first I was a bit disappointed (mainly cuz of all the freeze/reboot issues) but after rooting and non stop flashing I couldn't be happier. My thing is that Im sure devs spend a ton of their time working on it but do the benefits really outweigh the time spent?

I have the GSM version and as far as development, whoa this week saved me from upgrading, I love my Evo, fast, sturdy, right size screen although I couldn't care less about actual 3d camera, as previously stated, it's a gimmick. We have so many jb aosp, cm10 roms, just can't seem to justify the upgrade now. I would also miss all the flaming wars and antics from this forum, at least I have something to replace hockey for the moment
( Don't ask me for help as I couldn't care if your phone explodes, eh! )
Haha yup I want Evo 4g lte but same here because of all the great devs here I'm in no rush to upgrade at all

3D is at the bottom of my list when it comes to features in a Rom. It was interesting to try when I first got the phone but that was about it

Amazing phone because of the amazing devs. They have been giving lot of love lately. Plus when I play avatar in full sbs on my phone and people see it.... The look on their faces is like a troll drooling. Haha...

3d was on the bottom of my list
i only bought this phone cause it was cheap and a decent CPU/GPU/RAM and had removable battery and microSD storage for my 32GB class 10 card i already owned.
3D though won me over a bit - it did some nice shots - its a massive gimmick but I think its a shame it hasnt been picked up much.
i sadly dont have a 3d tv or anything so my phone is the only way to show images off.
I actually really want a Nexus4 now too - so bit of a tough decision - if HTC released Jellybean for this Evo3D then I'd probably stick with it another six months or so
as it stands I am sorely tempted by the cheap price of the Nexus4 and the fact that google will support it!
Evo3d is my second htc phone although it has very good specs my next phone won't be htc anymore due to htc development policy. Actually all of the android phones have the same problem a bit but when my evo3d dies i will buy a nexus no matter what
I consider the 3D to be a massive gimmick but in all fairness its a good show-off
with the right 3D video your friends can get blown away. Showed it to a friend of mine and now he wants a 3vo too.
BUT.. being an AOSP lover like me you wont get 3D to show off. Its a damn shame when your friends say "why the eff did you buy a 3D phone when you arent gonna use it for the 3D"
im like [-_-] _|_
I can give a link to avatar qhd sbs if you guys want. Looks really amazing. The picture taking is really a headache though.

I used it to take a few 3d drunk shots and videos and havent touched it since. It isn't a necessary feature for me and I don't think I'll use it ever again if it comes to JB.
Yeah same here I'm not sure if it's just my device but it really just looks like I'm seeing double so the 3d is useless to me. It would be cool if they could incorporate another cool feature into the 3d switch instead

i have been tryin alot of roms....paranoid android is really awesome u guys! i think the 3d is one of the most fun devices i've ever owed. when i get lte in my area i'm prolly gonna stick w HTC and get a 4g LTE!
some of the construction job photo's Ive taken with 3d from top of cranes and scissor lifts, have freaked people out.
I'd probably use 3d once a week if not more.
I base my decision on hardware specs, if HTC make it too hard to get s-off then I will go elsewhere for my phones.
But they shouldn't remove it either, need something to save the idiots from themselves
It is cool initially and to show other people. I get a lot of great wow responses but day to day, at least for me it is pretty much useless. I'd rather have a single camera lens and a thinner phone

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In my opinion PA is the best rom out. It has a couple minor glitches but nothing that can't be looked past lol. By far the most options available for customizing.
Just hope there's a PA coming for evo 4g lte cuz I'm getting one soon...

For me 3d is just a nice gadget to show off, and etc, but watchin 3d movies in the bus (when u must sit in bus for 8 hours) are great.
it's a nice feature but i don't often use it...but if the iphone had this option i think the apple fanboys would brag all day about this :laugh:
