What device? What made you want to change to this device? What is your favorite thing about THIS device versus older device? Figured this would help get to know each other a little bit. I will start...
LG Esteem on MetroPCS. Favorite thing about this device over older is that I am back to having a high end HTC device overall once again since the Original Inc. What made me want to change was the fact that I wanted another very high end device and am happy that I did.

I came from my launch-day Evo 4G. Hard to believe it's already been 2 years. . . . It's been a great phone, never had a problem with it. Gearing up to sell it after I take it for one more race next weekend (it's a dusty trail run and I don't want to take my new LTE just to track with RunKeeper and risk it getting dirty and sweaty, since I don't need an activated phone for that the old girl gets to come along for this one).

Sorry about posting this in the Development Sub-Forum. I wasn't paying attention. I am used to Tapatalk on AndroidForums due to the Esteem not having an XDA forum and just posting a topon in whatever sub-forum I am in over at AF. I would like to add one more Q.
Why did everyone choose TUIS exact device over waiting for the GSIII? What did you like about this device more OR what did u DISLIKE about Sammy that made you not want it?

Im coming from the og Evo. The lte is like a whole new world lol. My wife has the epic 4g touch and im just not a fan of Samsung devices. Updates with Samsung are always an adventure and the radio's in Samsung devices always seem to be lacking. Unless something drastic changes i will be sticking with htc for the foreseeable future.

The GS3 is not wildly different from this device now that the US variant has been announced. It's a bit larger (I'd say bordering on too large, but I could adjust if I had to), and the screen on Samsung devices does look different - not better or worse in my opinion. But it's no killer in performance, even if it had kept the quad-core (this Krait CPU is bomber). I don't see a lot that would sway me now that I have the LTE, and to be honest, after the OG Evo I've been extremely happy with the build quality of HTC. Plus, I didn't have to wait another who knows how long, and isn't the SGS3 going to launch for $299? Or was that just pre-release hearsay?
So, in short, brand loyalty, past experience, and impatience. (Okay, not really impatience, but it is nice to have the LTE now.)
Would the $300 price tag be for the 16GB model or the 32GB model though?

Need some help as to which phone to keep and which to give away. I had an OG Evo and I loved it up to the day i sold it. I then purchased a Nexus. 4G and quickly fell in love with the phone. Exactly a month and a half later I bought the Evo 3d which is what I'm using now.
Now thst you have a history here's what I need help with... would you use the NS4G or Evo 3D? Take all factors into account (NS4G is rooted and evo 3d is not, NS4G is smaller and feels better in the hand whereas evo is a brick, evo has a dual core powerhouse and 3d capabilities, NS4G is single core w/ no 3d, evo runs sense (I'm def not a fan, NS4G doesn't)
Please post your feedback.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
If it was me i would say the Evo 3d . because it's more future proof with the dual core, MHL, ect. The nexus is a great phone too but i really like the evo 3d better.
I would take the EVO 3d without thinking twice but from your post, you seem to like the nexus better so I say keep the nexus, sell the 3d (you probably make more money anyway by selling the 3d)
Well...I currently own both phones as well and plan on keeping both. I've had the NS4G since it came out. Just got the E3D today and love it. Both phones have definitely advantages over the other. To the point that I dont want to get rid of my NS4G so I'll be keeping both.
Not to mention I have a tendency to switch phones rather frequently.
Well I wouldn't be buying an NS4G because I still have mine I'm just debating whether or not to return my E3D to get my upgrade back to upgrade to the new SGS II phone coming out

with dev support all the good things come to the phone. i mean geez, this phone has only been out what 2 weeks. i think temporary root already means much much more to come. i am an htc fanboy so i am going to say keep the 3d but it's all a matter of personal preference. i have laughed when my htc phones get the updates and all the samsung people say "ours is right around the corner" i laughed at every epic owner that told me "i can wait a couple of days" when our evo 4g's got the gingerbread update, i don't think epic has gingerbread still(correct me if i am wrong). don't get me wrong i have seen samsung phones come out the gate blazing and have the latest and greatest but don't count on anything down the road.

Why the switch from the Nexus S? Doesn't have the same amount of horsepower as the 3D but it can also get the latest updates from Google (i.e. Jelly Bean)?
The 3D has more muscle, but the Nexus S is no slouch. I maybe can understand now why some say they will only get Nexus phones though. I made a Craigslist posting about trading sometime back, and yesterday someone offered a 3D so i took advantage. A wack thing about this phone is not the phone itself but how long Sprint is taking to drop the ICS update when Jellybean is around the corner. But I'm the type to root anyway. Either phone has its perks, it seems that even though the Nexus S is not latest and greatest, after having a non Nexus, it seems like the NS phones still have some type of relevence. I maybe wanted more power etc. The NS also doesn't have expandable storage. This phone shouldn't be overlooked, its a strong phone. If only I knew Android development? Lol

I loved my EVO 3D. Unfortunately, I have this habit of just buying the newest thing out... So I bought the EVO 4G LTE. My wife has my EVO 3D now. If they made the new EVO in 3D, I would've bought it still.
Speaking of... could we get a roll-up sticky for hellos as well as goodbyes?
hey guys,
I have had a Evo 4 G LTE for a while now and am fairly happy... for me the S3 and the Evo 4 G LTE are fairly similar... now both might have some pluspoints in one category and some others in another, but here is my question...
my wife is now on my old evo 4G. Her plan is up and she can buy a new phone...
Now the 2 i consider are Evo 4G LTE and S3 since they still seem to dominate the market...
My wife does not necessarily wanna root her device and she is not as involved as me...
Still are there any pros to having 2 same phones, that i am not aware of? meaning buying a second EVO LTE ?
Or are there any Pro about having 2 different phones? Any EVO 4 LTE Owner out there?? What does your significant other own?

Evo all the way. That way any apps you share, any texts and pictures you send, etc. will all work the same. And Sense is more user friendly than touchwiz will ever be. It's the closest you can get to the IPhone for user experience (and the reviews and consumer reports back it up). The dedicated camera button also helps a lot.

S3 is the most overrated and overhyped phone ever. if you do not like your 4g LTE, look at the droid razr maxx hd, it has one of the largest battery while staying in reasonable form factor. Build quality is also superb. Nexus 4 is also a very good phone as it has one of the fastest cpu (quad core s4 pro) and the build quality is also superb. The only downside is it lacks microsd. The upcoming Sony yuga is also very good choice.

Get her the EVO LTE. My wife had the OG EVO and now has the EVO LTE and loves it. She is stock/no root and is not interested either. Being that she was used to the sense UI on the OG EVO, the EVO LTE was a perfect phone for her. Don't change it up by going with an S3 or even the iphone5, it will probably just confuse and fustrate her having to learn the UI all over again.

I have my EVO LTE rooted & s off,and I must say I would personally rather have the evo over the s3. If she's used to sense and is abusive I would get the HTC evo LTE, however if your wife doesn't drop things or bang it around I would say go with the s3, the s3 is pretty bad ass when not rooted. I have both devices and I will say the s3 is easier to use. Not to mention the s3 is also noticeably faster

I bought the wife a GS3 on black friday and she loves it. But she is basically a noob on android and has no idea what the phone can even do.
A bit of background.................She was using an OG Evo, (I rooted it and put meanrom on it) she abused that phone........so for the last 2 months I gave her my retired Evo 3D.....in 2 months she made it look like it was 5 years old. Broke the red ring around the camera, the side of the bezel is coming off on both sides. So I bought her the GS3 for $50 on black friday.
She has no idea what root is other than its what lets her use her kindle on the train in the mornings, lol. I play with it every once in a while but I definately like the evo experiance better. But the only good I found for having 2 different phones was to actually see if there was a difference getting LTE on my EVO and her GS3. And for me there is no difference, they both hold the signal the same.

I'm in the same spot as you, my wife has an OG evo... her contract isnt up yet, but I have been telling her to get the S3 ( i have the evo 4g lte)... too many annoying quirks with the stock evo 4g lte... now if the jelly bean update actually comes... and actually fixes wifi bounce or the issues with the 4g lte signal... then i will be telling her to get the evo... if i could do it all over again, I would get an s3 ( I was a day one OG Evo buyer and really liked the phone)... just because it has a larger user base and more development as far as I can tell.
Still no lte fix on the evo lte and its been 6 monthes since it came out
gs3 with android 4.2 cm10.1
After owning both phones, the EvoLTE wins in some areas and the GS3 wins in some areas. I personally chose to leave the EvoLTE becuase of the 4G problems, locked battery, and constant Sense freeze ups. I don't think your wife will have as many apps, contacts, and need for extra batteries like me so you might as well keep the interface consistent by sticking with HTC since she is already using the OG Evo.
The EvoLTE has a better screen, camera, and keyboard.
The GS3 has a removable battery, better 4G signal, more intuitive software/shortcuts, and better multitasking.

she does abuse phones... as far as just throwing it in the purse... that beeing said i still have a good Seido cover on my OG EVO ... so it absorbs most of the scratches... still she doesnt care about phones that much... they just land in the bottom of the purse...
Has she looked at the phones?
I'm the more phone techy one, so it may be just me but I'd be a bit disturbed if my husband gave me a phone with out my input.
FWIW, I had the Evo OG, rooted it. I thought about getting SGIII but I preferred Sense over Touch wiz and I liked how Evo LTE felt in my hand.
Finally, not everyone wants an iPhone even if the phone remains stocked and unrooted. I wish people would stop suggesting the iPhone as the default.

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.

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.
