I've been noticing people commenting that they've been a long time HTC user, going back to the hero or even the G1.
Reading these comments makes me feel very old, lol. Just wanted to get an idea of how many generations current HTC users have been through....
My first HTC device was the audiovox XV6600 on Verizon (aka blue angel).
After owning that phone for 2 years jumped to sprint with the 6800 -> 6900 -> diamond -> touch pro -> hero -> EVO and now the 3D.
I may actually pass on upgrading this year for the first time. Not because I have any qualms with the LTE, but because I'm actually satisfied with the 3D.
I don't think some you guys understand how far HTC's build quality has come over the years.
The touch pro was by far the most killer phone at the time on paper, but the phone was put together terribly. I couldn't bare to own most of those phones for more than 6 months let alone a year. The 3D is the first one that has held up physically and still runs lightening fast.
I think we've finally reached the point of diminishing returns.

As far as build quality goes, they have all been relatively the same. Every phone has had its cons and flaws in terms of build quality. They've all certainly had "light-bleed" which is one department HTC can't seem to remedy.
Overall HTC's build quality has always been decent. It's not nearly as spectacular as most people make them out to be, but they are definitely one of the better manufacturers.

contemplating moving to Samsung for my next device, it depends on the rootability and dev community around the Evo 4G LTE
I had an HTC Touch Viva: mi first venture into the world of smartphones it was fast for all i nedded, not many games though and i still have it then in one year i bought a used HTC TytnII: omg that phone was awesome it had everything but then android came so i loaded it with android and i instantly loved it. Then to start my jorney into android i bought a Xperia X10a my only choices were that or the sgs or captivate in at&t branding which looked really ugly and i didn't like the camera so i went with the X10 i had a really awesome time with the phone all the issues and stuff but in the end it held up now im using my bros inspire 4g and i like it but im using it until i get to buy another phone wich i think will be sgs3 cause i would have loved the one x but the non expandable memory doesn't cut it for me i also thought of the xperia ion but stupid at&t or sony idk whose fault it is that the phone ain't released yet -_- but by the time that gets here it will be to old and the only redeamimg feature would be the 12mp camera so thats my phone history also all of them still work and i still play with them from time to time ^^ and i think i wrote too much lol

how are you jumping off your 3d so fast?
arent yearly upgrades gone?
---------- Post added at 03:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:53 AM ----------
1. the first point i would like to ask is how is everyone moving from the evo 3d to the LTE? evo 3d came out a year ago as of april, since this time they removed the option for yearly upgrades....the reason im asking this is i would love to swap over however i still have a year left with my evo3d before upgrade...
anways my first HTC phone was the tmobile wing (and oh boy with winmo 6 a load of fun)
since then ive owned g1 / g2 / mytouch / mytouch 4g / mytouch 4g slide / evo 4g / evo 3d
ive owned a few other phones inbetween but those are the htc phones i remember owning

Been all over every android phone, from G1 to the Droids, Galaxy S to the G2x, the only two phones to ever impress me, the Nexus One, and the Thunderbolt.
The Thunderbolt should have been the Nexus 3.
Perviously I had turned BB and Apple fan boys into android fan boys with the Nexus One.
Now I have turned moto, galaxy lovers into htc fan boys with the Thunderbolt.
Its absolutely amazing, sans sense of course, theres nothing wrong with sence, I've just always perfered vanilla android.
My two current phones of choice are the Galaxy S and the Nexus One. But I'm gonna get the Galaxy S II, so I think that will become my favourite Android phone when I get that.
I think the soon coming Evo 3D will own.
The phone now I am using is Samsung Vibrant(Galaxy S),satisfy. Yet my favorite one might be Moto Atri 4G.

The only thing I wish my Evo had was a bettter camera. Without me fiddling with it. I still think its great but crippled with some weak software. Other than that no, the Evo is a flagship phone for Sprint and will get updates from HTC. The OG Evo got froyo and gingerbread and I expect ICS and whatever is next for our 3d.

I think it was Android Central where an HTC executive said the HTC ONE will be their only flagship device this year and it won't be modified for carriers..... So where does the leave the EVO line?? Carriers always leave their best phones for a summer release and the ONE comes out next month.....No way Sprint won't have a flagship device releasing in May/June!!!!

You could be right, however I think there is another situation about to happen. As far as marketing and hyping up a phone, HTC will only be making noise about the One. So you won't see any big shows, commercials, or anything else from HTC unless its about the One. That is HTC baby for 2013.
But....that doesn't mean that Spint won't contract HTC to design an EVO with lets says a snapdragon 800, and some other goodies. But the marketing, and hype will all have to come from sprint. And for that reason, I am not sure how that will go over. But I do think sprint will contine the EVO, but expect no noise from HTC about it.
Htc is crap. I wish i got a S3.... or At least they get rid of Rosie. That is all. lol.

Nah, I doubt sprint would even consider that. LG doesn't have that kind of backing ot credibility to pull off an EVO. No history of updates, pro/con development, or releasing of source. Not sure many would opt to grab that over the One. I know I wouldn't.

That looks really nice to me! I've never owned an LG phone, but they have definitely been improving their Android game lately! While my next phone will definitely have at least a 5"display, I'm not so sure I want a 5.5" display as the Note 2 actually felt a little larger than I was expecting (and I had expected that I'd love that size display). Only complaint with the Optimus G Pro is that the display is only IPS, instead of IPS Plus/Super IPS. Both of my current tablets have an IPS Plus display, being the Asus Prime (TF201) and the Asus Infinity (TF700T). That article even mentions that the display is not as bright as they would have liked, and IPS Plus does exactly that - increases display brightness. I guess we'll see what all Sprint has planned for this spring/summer, as that will be 1 year for me with the Evo LTE and that's about how often I've been purchasing a new phone for the last 6 years. So far though, the Optimus G Pro is in the front of the pack. I'm hoping HTC releases a phone with a 5"+ display soon very soon, as they have officially said that they will be producing phones with 5"+ displays this year.
Sent from my White Evo LTE running MeanBean, using XDA Premium
The One is HTC's only flagship phone, not Sprint's. I'm sure they're working with Sprint on a phone that'll be released in the summer to continue the EVO name. Remember, HTC had a couple different "flagship" phones last year with the One line. Now, they're sticking with just one phone (no pun intended). Now, I have been wrong before, but this is just my speculation. I'd buy the One if an EVO isn't in the cards.
If the One will be HTC's only flagship then the EVO is dead, unless they release one and it's a mid-tier device. If that was the case, why would you buy it?
Face it guys, it's over for the EVO.
As for Sprint, the only rumored device I see potentially topping the One is the Moto X. This is purely speculation seeing as there are no released specs, but I believe it won't be exclusive to any one carrier and Google wants to offer a non-Nexus device to beat Samsung's flagship. Too bad we probably won't get any details until May because I really want the One next month. It would suck waiting until May just to hear its not as superior as rumored, or that it won't go to Sprint anyway.
Yea, the EVO line is dead. I enjoyed it, but it's time to go. This will make advertising, accessories and everything else much easier.
I know people like the body design of the 4g LTE, but I for one think the one X on at&t was a much much better looking phone. The HTC ONE looks even better than that. I'll miss the kickstand, but I'm tired of explaining to people what an evo is and why it's actually still part of HTCs flagship line. It makes zero sense to keep making carrier specific models.

I for one am glad that the EVO line might be dead. The reason I am saying that is because this "should" make for quicker updates. One phone two base updates (CDMA/GSM). HTC can pour all their recourses into keeping these 2 versions updated. I know that carriers will add there bloat but keeping the base updates basically uniform should speed up the process. Just my 2 cents.

Well seeing that us Sprint guys don't need the SIM slot on the side, maybe we'll get an sdcard slot. Maybe.
