Hey everyone! I currently have the EVO 3D, and I was about to switch to the EVO 4G LTE, but then I saw the Samsung Galaxy S3. It looks amazing, but then again, I really like HTC Sense. What's your vote on both of these phones?
:what:
hahaha anybody?
The Evo 4G LTE is the most competitive product Vs the S3, not a great deal to differentiate them really. Are you on Sprint already and happy with them? What are the most important things for you in a phone? Which features are most important to you etc etc.

First off this isn't a post dogging on the evo. I want to make it clear that I love my evo to death. Now I am just curious to know if anyone will be going out and getting the photon? The specs aren't too bad and it looks like it could be a pretty solid phone. My wife is actually do for an upgrade so I might get her it and steal it for a bit.
Anyone else thinking of purchasing or maybe even trading in your evo for the photon?

I am returning my evo 3D for Photon 4G, spec is about the same but it has dual networks CDMA and GSM, this is all in one phone, it is kind of convenience when we travel to GSM country, just pop prepaid GSM card and ready to go. I also hope that Motorola phone has a better signal. Forget to mention, kickstand is a plus.
Yes, Sprint gave me my EVO 3D and I will purchase the photon when it comes out. I miss my kickstand and the 3D function really does hurt my eyes. I know I don't have to use it. but the dual camera kind of annoys me since its so big.
Yeah I have to agree an android world phone that's that ish... the evo 3d is a nice gimmick but that's it I just hope we can get asop roms running this like asap

Samsung Galaxy S2
Samsung Galaxy Nexus
Samsung Galaxy Note
or
Tell me if you know better phones?
And why?
Galaxy S2 and Galaxy Note are very similar in performance - of course the latter has a bigger screen - whereas the Galaxy Nexus improves on both phones hardware and sports Android Ice Cream Sandwich. So my question is, why would you not buy the Galaxy Nexus? If you have no budget restrictions, go with that phone; if you're on a budget, the Galaxy S2 is still great.

Nah, it has Gingerbread. Since you're looking ICS though, get the Galaxy Nexus. The Galaxy Note is a great phone but it's 5.3 inch screen is just impractical and a prefect way to be targeted for a robbery.
Also I failed, I hit Galaxy Note in the poll instead of Galaxy Nexus.
ICS?
"HTC has committed to upgrading a number of its smartphones in "early 2012." HTC hasn't said how early, and will provide more information as it becomes available. The update list includes the Amaze 4G, EVO 3D, EVO Design 4G, Rezound, Sensation, Sensation XE, Sensation XL, and Vivid. Most of these devices are sold in the U.S. by the major carriers, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon Wireless."
Informationweek
"The HTC Sensation, Sensation XL and Sensation XE were named as the first HTC smartphones lined up for the Ice Cream Sandwich update early next year, as well as the HTC Rezound, EVO 3D, EVO Design 4G, and Amaze 4G, which will receive the update over the air “through close integration with our carrier partners,” HTC says. The new HTC Vivid, going on sale this week, is also on the upgrade list."

Is the Evo design 4g and the Evo 4g lte the same phone?
My friend has a sprint htc Evo design 4g and I cannot find the xda development thread for that phone.
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda app-developers app
No.
The 4g LTE is a high end top of the line phone.
The design is probably considered mid tier with its 5mp camera and other specs
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
To follow up on the above post, a clarification. The Evo Design 4G is WiMax, the same 4G that the orignal (OG) Evo had. The WiMax network is still active and will continue to do so for a while longer yet (probably somewhere between 2 and 4 years, but that's 100% pure speculation), but there is basically no good reason to go with the Evo Design over the Evo LTE.
Well ok, I guess it depends on how good of a deal you can get. The Evo LTE is around $200 while you can probably find the Design for less than that. I assume this question is for buying purposes. Your friend is like the nazi guy from Indiana Jones: The Last Crusade upon finding what he thinks is the holy grail. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ubw5N8iVDHI
My wife has the design, she upgraded to that from the Samsung intercept about a year ago. It's a decent phone, it's just one that no one really cared about. There is a rooting forum on Phandroid for it, but I don't think it has any mods or roms though.

My mom has the Design, and they just got ICS. along with my girls 3D.

I have the White Evo LTE excellent condition and I was looking for something different as I'm not ready for a upgrade till March and this guy offering me his Samsung Galaxy Nexus 4g/LTE 32gig stock even trade.
Is this a even trade or is it worth less than my EVO Lte? Need advice from those that more familiar with the Nexus
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
I'd stay with the lte.I had both phones at the same time. Lte has better battery life by far. And cm works just as well.
There are some more rom options for the gnex but I'm not really a super flasher. If you want to flash non stop the gnex. otherwise I'd stay with the lte.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I would stay with the LTE as well. Not exactly what I would call an even tradeoff. Aside from the non-expandible memory on the Nexus (my biggest reason), the LTE has the best of both worlds with Sense & CM. The Nexus has a few unique ports for it, but I prefer the quality of the LTE.

~Asking for the 'best rom' is just like asking who's the best Pokémon. When you get it, sometimes you realize that its not all that great in your opinion. Try to flash 'em all! ~
Ok thanks guys for yr opinions.
It's hard to make a wise decision when you're not familiar with the other phone.
I'm gonna keep looking for more of a equal trade off or put money in the boot.
Really trying to get the One but things are not working out for me yet. I'm offering my White Evo LTE & a Hp Pavilion 17.3 Wide Screen Laptop fo trade on Craigslist for a HTC One but no luck yet

Stick with your lte. Way better phone all around.

So my upgrade on my EVO 3D comes up tomorrow, I was going to get one of the free phones on my upgrade. I was just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for which one I should get. Heres what I've been leaning towards.
Samsung Galaxy S III:
+Good phone, I know people that have them and they aren't bad
-No LTE, I use my phone network for a lot of things.
HTC Evo 4G LTE:
+Going from an EVO to an EVO is good right?
-Worried about the battery life, I got hurt by my 3D and don't want to see it go that way again.
Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE:
+Full Keyboard; Also had an Atrix before my 3D, so I'm used to motorolas bass ackwards rooting and hacking and whatnot
-From what I can tell the screen is really crappy. Does anyone know if this is true?
Is there something that I'm missing out on as far as free sprint phones goes? What do you guys suggest?
Ive came away from htc and went for a samsung s3 and I can honestly say im really happy with it plus rooting is easy all the roms are good and battery life in some are awesome. The only thing I miss from htc phones is the clock with the weather changing on the phone
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I wouldn't recommend Motorola Photon Q.
So try deciding between Galaxy S3 or Evo 4G LTE.
In your place i would choose S3 as many people have it thus greater support on XDA but if connectivity on LTE means much more than that then go with HTC Evo 4G LTE.
Or simply, flip a coin. Not because the coin will choose for you, but because, in that split second, you'll know what side you want it to fall on.

lol, I've been leaning more towards the S3 already. Does anyone know what kind of speed difference I would possibly see in the San Diego area? Also, would it be worth it for me to wait till I have some extra cash? Is the S4 a big improvement? Or is there something else worth it?
If I had the opportunity I would jump to s3. The phone is better than the other two all round and the support is better too.

Since when do GS3's not have LTE? Also the EVO LTE is great on battery from my experience.

The LTE connectivity in the EVO LTE sucks donkey butt. It won't connect in places were my GS3 connects with no issue. Supposedly the One has the same problem too.
