So ya eat that for all you gs3 trolls coming here and doubting our phone!!!
Why would I worry? I feel sorry for Samsung users. Sure they have some nice features but Samsung is stuck fighting it out with Apple for copying crap that only hurts Android

I'm pretty sure it's all Android manufacturers that are affected. The EVO LTE was delayed at customs because of this. And besides, we've already got JB leaks for our phone.

The EVO LTE was stopped at the border because of how they handled phone numbers in various applications.
Samsung lost a lawsuit because their phones look like iPhones (and yet they still sell phones with a physical home button...morons )

Actually it's Samsung that's doing more damage as they are sort of the face of Android these days. They lose a case for copying and people think all android phones are rip offs of iPhones. They even added a single home button to the bottom after removing all capacitive buttons.

Right, well anyone can be a victim of these broad patents.
I think it's funny that Samsung owns most of the cellular market share now.
Personally, I still hope for a later reversal of that final ruling, especially in light of the recent overturn of Koh's initial injunction. I hope that reversal is somewhat a bellwether against AAPL's frivolous nonsense.
Nonetheless, it'd still be nice to have JB on my evo lte... and beating the GS3 to it would be icing on the cake. Just not at all a fan of that phone.

Hey they gs3 is a rip off of the icants, heck when the first galaxy came out I was on tmo and it looked just like an icant 3g!!! And if my lte gets jb before the gs3 as an ota not a leaked Rom then more power to HTC, I'm just tired of all the publicity the gs3 is getting and all the negativity the evolte is getting. The lte blows the gs3 out of the water on benchmarks, and is an all around better device

Yes anyone can be a victim of broad patents but look at how similar the latest model is, they claim lawyers made sure nothing infringed and it's the closest looking clone that Samsung has made so far.

The only relevance is the home button. The Evo is shaped more like an iPhone, so Evo is just at fault as Samsung is. This is a petty argument. The point of this thread was to point out that the Evo is supposedly getting Jellybean first so let's leave it at that.

To be honest and unbiased I owned HTC phones (Mogul, TP1,TP2,Evo,Evo3D,and EvoLTE) the past several years and now I am on my first Samsung phone. I hated not having a removable battery on the LTE and the nonexistent Sprint LTE and 3G in the DFW so I bounced and picked up a GS3 on TMO. The ELTE does things better than the GS3 and the GS3 does things better than the ELTE so it is was it is, you can't really trash either phone. In the mean time HTC is losing money and marketshare while Samsung is the No. 1 smartphone manufacturer worldwide. I could care less who gets Jelly Bean first...LOL

Who cares about quadrant scores? Try thinking about real life performance.
I currently have the EVO 4G LTE and the GSIII and can tell you that they are equal in speed and performance. And honestly, out of the box, the GSIII is much snappier. The LTE is a better device to me because of the kickstand, but that may be the only reason.

dood, phone has been discontinued by tmo, it's not got much life in it. I just happens to be one of the 2 soon to be 3 available hspa+ 42mbps devices! once the s drops you can expect more price drops on the Amaze.
The phone may be going EOL but it's probably their best phone and is still comparable to the new One S. Also those ads are completely one sided, note that they are using an iPhone for Sprint which is only a 3G phone. I used to be on Sprint before switching to T-Mobile and their 4G service was decently quick... if you could get it.

My friend up here has an EVO3D and never switches 4G ON. I asked him why and he said "by the time it even connects or finds 4G signal, the web pages could already have been loaded on 3G"
Don't know how accurate that is but Idk why it would take so long to connect.

That would only be the case if you switch it on to check one page then shut it back off again. It does take about 30 seconds or so to connect to 4g, much like it does to connect to WiFi. Personally that sounds like a dumb excuse to not use 4g. We don't have 4g here but if we did, I'd likely leave it on all the time since my phone is near a charger all day anyways.

I am very interested in it, Asus is one of my favorite companys specially for gaming, i love their ROG series. i have the Asus G74 laptop right now and plan on getting the Asus Tytan.
Note that its never good to get any phone when its just released. i wait a few months for all the problems (if it has any) to be fixed and development to start and prices to drop. while the samsung galaxy ii already been out for quite a while.
according to this site it wont be too much more than the one s: http://news.softpedia.com/news/Asus...mer-Pad-300-Get-Priced-in-Europe-264743.shtml
only $15 more for just the phone. i will wait till the price is around $400 on ebay then ill buy it in a heartbeat
edit: look at their website now. they updated the information about it. http://www.asus.com/Mobile/PadFone/ you can get 102 hours of battery from padfone (the phone), the station (tablet), and the station dock (keyboard). they all use the hardware of the padfone (cpu/gpu/ram/camera), but they all have their own battery. also its all one data package (from the phone). this is going to get huge IMO.
the camera should be better than the amaze as well, has the same aperture, but a better lense made my asus.
If you wanted to buy a different sprint phone today without committing to a new contract, I would argue that there is no phone better at this price point. The fact that this phone can be purchased used on craigslist for $100, rooted and rommed up with just a minimal amount of hassles is mindboggling. If someone can show me a better deal please do.
I consider that the Evo 3D with ICS is a better phone than S3(which is a crappy copy of iPhone)

You're joking, right?
1) Out of nowhere you compared the two phones.
2) The galaxy s3 is better than the evo 3d. What you said is like saying the Xbox 360 is better than the ps4. The ps4 will come out later with next Gen hardware. The galaxy s3 will come out later with next Gen hardware.
3) The s3 is a copy of the iPhone? Is that a joke? Just because they have a hardware home button doesn't suddenly make them iPhone clones. Other than that, they are probably the complete opposite of iPhones.

that might be a tad strong, but i just think if you don't already have a 3d, and are already on sprint, its a great alternative to using an upgrade. ( Can we PLEASE not mention that other phone for a while? It tends to make people angry and gets threads closed. Thank you)

IMHO Samsung makes great appliances(home electronics, washers, dryers, etc.) Their cellular phones don't do anything for me and as a previous user stated, the build quality is less than impressive. The screens always have that weird hue to them prolly due to AMOLED which i dont find appealing. And the samsung phones i've played with or friends that have them seem to have lots of issues with signal retention. Lets not forget the countless GPS problems that have been complained about on many occasions.

There is usually a product cycle to the big contender phones. Just like every summer, a new EVO is released. You'll find other phones released between these times. But, you never know. They're already developing superphones that are faster than the EVO 4G LTE.
There might be a new Nexus phone announced at Google I/O next week. iPhone 5 in the fall, and probably another round of Android superphones for the holiday season, probably once Samsung/TI/Nvidia launch an LTE baseband that will work with their SoCs.
Well the latest rumors are that Jellybean will be released next week at Google I/O. You can get the new S3 or EVO but if you plan to see Android 4.1 on it anytime soon you are probably in for disappointment. I'd get a Galaxy Nexus or wait for the next Nexus line which should have similar hardware to the latest super phones.

Cool thanks for the responses. Good discussion.
I am anxious to see the new gnex, but I'm thinking it wont have a large enough screen (even tho the specs will be good enough). Other words, I don't think it will be "better" than the S3 per se, other than getting jellybean/pure android...but never know....
Lastly, the responses to this are actually "grown up" for once - you guys were spot on. Thing is, I was expecting much worse reactions as the question could have drawn out all types of trolls.
Hopefully XDA has turned a corner recently...thanks again.
How about the new WP8 phones that are going to come out around October I think. Huge update to the software from what I have read, multiple core, multiple screen res and size support. I would be very interested to see a Nokia WP8 mobile with their 41mp camera, and Nokia maps. That would be pretty amazing. I am itching to see what comes out.

Unfortunately for Sprint, slow data is the only reason I'm leaving...otherwise I'd consider the EVO LTE more seriously.
Waiting for the sequel to the Rezound on Verizon, then I'm leaving Sprint. I'm assuming this will be released around Nov/Dec. It will likely be based on the One XXL, if it ever comes out.

I have a feeling now that google has their hands on motorola, that they will eventually have a pretty sweet release....more then likely a Nexus. I have a feeling that it'll not be locked down the way it has in the past. Google knows what Android junkies want, and they'd be kinda stupid to not use motorola ideally the way they should. Hopefully it makes it to sprint. Main reason I'm hoping for this is purely for the fact Motorola and Google are AMERICAN companies.

hey all, iv been an EVO owner since the OG evo on release date. Sorry to say but i threw in the towel today with my evo lte and bought a S3 on Craigslist and sold my evo to a family member. its been a good run! Im off to the s3 forums for now on.
i did love my lte evo very very much, but i feel like iv had the same phone for 4 years now and wanted to change it up with touchwiz.
Nothing wrong with that, my sister is very happy with her S3. So much so that she has yet to throw a ROM on it. It seems like a pretty good phone
running sense for 4 years got to me. i loved the phone but just felt i needed a change.
the phone runs very smooth, but it has lower benchmark scores than my evo -_-
Yeah...even now its pretty bloated. I usually jump ship as soon as I can, running CM10 with no complaints so far. I'm thinking of trying paranoid next. Like I said my lil sis loves it so far. Now if only I can get her to stop shouting bump me every time she wants to beam something

I left and came back within a month.
GS3 is good but the E4glte has better quality...both phones are awesome tho

I say it comes down to hardware because, who are we kidding, most of us can't wait to flash the latest and greatest on to our phones. All flagship phones have competing spec these days. Multiple core socs, HD screen 4+ inches, a clock speed of 1ghz or more. 512+ ram, etc....some one please take that knife away from wile and bring some bandages
I wouldn't be able to live with Samsung's hardware. The quality isn't there

My parents both have S3s and love them. You really can't go wrong either way. I've always been a fan of HTC though.
Samsung can make a fine tv and maybe a few phones here and there

I had the gs3 for a few days just out of curiosity...returned for my evo..this weekend I was actually able to use both side by side since my niece has a gs3...don't get me wrong it is nice and does certain things better..like its much louder speaker..but after side by side comparing the evo is better IMO...I think the hype around the gs3 makes ppl believe its better..mine opened apps faster loaded webpages faster took much better pictures and I think the evos screen is far superior ...I notice the pentile without even really looking for it and my screen was much brighter..now I'm.not saying one is much better than the other..bc u cant go wrong with either phone..but I'm sooo tired of hearing how much better the gs3 is when it just isn't ..if it weren't for the extra ram they would have nothing on the EVO
That's what a great marketing team can do, we get crap like some photographer taking pictures of a skydiving model.
Seriously that is one thing HTC could really work on, marketing.

What phone runs smooth? The sg3? or the evo LTE? The benchmarks for both the sg3 and the evo LTE should be kinda close as they have the same processor.
If you are saying that your og evo has higher benchmarks, I highly recommend you start a career as a stand up comedian, because that's one of the funniest things I have ever heard :beer:
I have messed with a friends sg3 and it's a nice phone, enjoy!

I'm pretty sure they both use the qualcomm krait s4 soc... I could be wrong but the sprint store reps in my area have said it's the same processor. I'll do some research and update my post. Thanks for the research task, gives me a few moments away from the wife and kids.

And I could be wrong but Samsung has been bragging about their krait tech... and never trust a sprint rep unless you know them lol I over heard one tell a customer htc is made by HP computers and she bought it straight away

Nope, it is the same exact soc krait s4 processor... http://www.gottabemobile.com/2012/06/05/htc-evo-4g-lte-vs-samsung-galaxy-s-iii-sprint/
About the sprint reps, some are knowledgeable, most want the commission. The store in the city I live in is a corporate store, so I'm hoping/assuming they might be more knowledgeable... Prolly not though. I brought my evo shift running running cm7 in a year ago and the rep had no clue. He actually thought it was cool. Lol

Depends on the off contract price... expecting it to be around 7-8 hundred so probably not.

I agree we already have the same phone in 2 other threads. Although I sound a bit like a hippocrit since I made a thread on the Japanese version when they had the dlx thread out.

Nope. The rezound is my last HTC device. They make decent quality stuff, but they refuse to support it. (see tablets) After buying two tabs and getting the shaft, I have made a vow to not buy another HTC product. Not to mention the hoops they make us jump through just to root and rom our phones. They might aswell be dead to me.

Delete it then fine by me. I only saw the butterfly thread and was just trying to provide some information.

Samsungs is easily bypassable. Which is where I plan on going. And it's not like "htc's unlockable" BL does all that much good. If it did we wouldn't need to s-off.

true about samsung. moto i think has garbage hardware... can i ask what trouble you had with the htc tablets? sounds like a pretty bad experience for you to leave the company

Well, it started with the many replacements of the tbolt, then HTC's hard stance against updating their tablets kinda pushed me over the edge, then they updated the flyer/view to broken software and they wont even fix it. Now the Rezound is having touchscreen issues. So I'm just tired of dealing with the problems and the lack of OEM support after purchase. I appreciate the Dev community for the zound, but sammy seems to be stronger in that dept. So I think I am going to give them a shot. I won't touch Moto with a ten foot pole. It may be a bad move, but I'm willing to take that risk after all the issues I have had recently with HTC. So for me, from here on out, it's going to be Nexus, or Samsung.
Samsung is worse.
I love my Rez and I still think of it as probably one of the, if not the most undervalued android phone released to date, but I don't see myself going for yet another carrier exclusive device after this. Of course, reviews might be so great for the DNA that I could change my mind but so far I am not that impressed.
Having said that however, the lack of a LTE capable Nexus 4 kinda limits the options for those looking to upgrade atm and I really cant see myself with a Galaxy S device. Wish Sony would be given a chance at penetrating the US market, they seem to strike a fair balance between corporate dev support, hardware and software quality.
I'll be getting this. The hardware and build quality will be top notch, it can be unlocked through HTCs dev website and be able to load cm. It was between this and the note but son, I am dissapoint at it having the older gen exynos and 720p screen on a 5.5 inch screen.
no, my next phone will be honor 2 or note 2
battery is important factor to me now
i dont think i will ever came back to htc
even im sense-boy
Nah, samsung isn't worse.

Its looking like ill most likely be getting it. I'm thinking ill be getting the DNA and one other new gen phone probably a GSM phone since I have two contracts, one with ATT and one with Verizon.
But I will be more careful than usual with this purchase. I'm currently so broke I can't afford the down payment on a grilled cheese sandwich. But this phone is a priority, and I owe it to the BAMF community. So I've been saving my pennies and will be selling some stuff to raise some funds.

samsungs radios and signal are 10x worse.
in my house, my gs3 gets about 6kbps download on 3g.
my rezound, when its not pulling 4g in my house (which the nexus and GS3 CAN'T), pulls atleast half a meg to a meg per second. doing anything on the gs3 on 3g is terrible, and ridiculously slow. fb app won't even load. rezound loads it no problem. hell, i even tethered 3 tablets to my rezound last night and while we were all browsing at the same time, ti was STILl faster than my gs3
i don't think i'd buy antoher samsung phone ever again, and i really want the DNA...dunno if i wanna fork out 600 bones for it tohugh
