Rumor has it that it might come to Sprint, and if it does, it might get the Evo name

Looks like it won't be an EVO but it will come to Sprint and it will be called HTC One. HTC released news of it today.

Yep. Supposed to be on all carriers and will be htc's first all carrier launch. This will most likely be my next phone.

Guessing No, it'll be similar yes but expect more minor boosts (ie. Kickstand, SD Card Slot, battery etc.) The Next EVO should be on track to pick up the 3D owners who actually waited 22 months.

I was looking forward to a 5 inch screen for the next HTC flagship to Sprint, but I'll settle for 4.7 with 1080p display at 468ppi. And the rest of the specs, I'll take it.
Not much to be hyped about compared to the DNA....camera...and screen are really all that's a upgrade to it... Show me next gen Qualcomm SoC in a Sprint device and then ill get excited!
Really worried they will toss APQ chip in with MSM/MDM for radios which will be old by time of an EVO launch....

Oh and that article stunk btw.... Guy is lost all over the place. If they throw those specs it'll get stomped by the S4 imho as that should be using sammys new chip by then I bet....
The guy flat out says 32Gb is enough for any phone.... Fool
I still don't see VZ jumping on board this soon after the DNA release either...
Dunno my biggest thing is to NOT see the APQ SoC in a device as that's been done and there won't be any firsts there.... Regardless I don't see sprint disbanding the EVO brand for this still...they need their device to set apart...but who knows...

Other thing sprint has done releases at CTIA after HTC did their shindig at MWC....FWIW....
Ugh I'm gonna be alone but if this is it, then ill need a lot that's not mentioned to come up and surprise me to get me to make a plunge on that device...
Won't see 800mhz lte support that early either...though that might not come till later in yr anyway.

If I hadn't already gotten the EVO in August I'd be all over that phone. My wife's upgrade is in Jan, she's likely getting the EVO as I doubt I can convince her to wait longer for this phone. Specs are beast. I guess I may be one of the few that thinks that phone is going to be awesome, I don't see why there isn't more hype....

If I can expect to get an update to an Android 4.2 / Sense 5 update for my phone, I'll keep it for an additional year and get something after that. HTC still has a lot of work to do, but I would really like to see continued upgrades for our handset.

I hear ya, but this will be on Sprint .. the DNA isn't, also this will have a bigger battery and with the smaller screen it'll smoke the DNA's battery life. So, better battery, screen, and camera? That's nice. Big improvement over the EVO that's for sure, and I bet there's other improvements over the DNA that will come out.

My wife keeps wanting me to buy a new phone for her, but she doesn't like the ones with the big screens. She'll only do HTC, and we have to stay with Sprint. So, she may have to deal with it.
If the next nexus phone comes to sprint then that will probably be my next and first choice. The fact that you can't take the battery out the evo 4g lte really really turns me away. I plan to give my evo 4g lte to my dad but something tells me I'm going to have to do some replacing of the battery because of how fast these batteries lose their charge after a while. That's gonna be a pain despite the how to videos. My second choice will be the S4 unless HTC gets there stuff together. Don't get me wrong, I like sprints variant of the one X but samsung is making their devices way more attractive lately. Always been a HTC fan but they haven't been coming through lately. Here's to hoping they listen to us.

You know sense 5 will happen on this device. Thinking this phone is gonna make the long haul. Sprint and HTC really needs to focus on a 1.5 year update policy for every device. Or maybe make it a two system update. Get 4.1-4.2, then 4.3 or next update. Or sense 4 and sense 5. Now that we arent upgrading our phones as often as we were 3 years ago, its either gonna be update to future proof the consumer investment or people will be jumping ship.

I just wanted to know what would it take for you to stay with HTC? It seems like most people on here dont like the galaxy s2 but always say that when sprint gets the galaxy nexus there gona get it. Me personally both of my lines are are eligible for upgrades and i passed on the iphone rush and galaxy s2. The 1st evo to me completely changed the way i did and will always look at a phone. Not the iphone or any blackberry but the evo4g. The evo 3d although wasnt as ground breaking still made me a happy htc customer. So i ask....what will HTC have to give us in there next major sprint phone to keep people from jumping ship to the galaxy? For me its basically just ICS and LTE. Possibly a camera as good as the og evo as well. So before anyone says it ill say it cool story bro....stop trolling blah blah blah....i just seriously wana know bc it seems like alot of people are losing faith in HTC

Stop using ****ty cameras, stop using ****ty screens, use better speakers, change the damn phone design for once. They need to get it, yes the first Evo was revolutionary but that ship has sailed. Change the design on the phones and make them thinner and make sense optional. It wastes too much of the phones resources because of how bloated it is. That happens ill consider coming back to HTC but it's not likely so I probably wont. And FYI the camera in the Evo 4g sucked even more than the one in the 3D does. All their cameras suck that ive used.

Not planning on going anywhere here. Just waiting for the quadcore S4 chip HTC phone to drop for sprint personally. LTE modem being built directly in the die is interesting to me...
though I hear the complaints about camera, but personally I find it suitable for a phone, if they make it better, then so be it.
As for making phones thinner....im not on that boat here. Id rather have them the same thickness and size they are now. Holding those thin iPhones just doesn't feel right in the hand to me. Also when you go thinner you sacrifice the already slim battery life...

An HTC Nexus device.
HTC needs to innovate once again and get rid of the "cookie cutters", which have only slight differences. They should focus on 3-4 models across the board, ranging from entry level to high end.....their should be NO differences in look or features between carriers. This would also force carriers to focus more on improving their networks rather than flaunting that they have a "better" phone, which is what they should be doing.
Major (Android) updates in a timely fashion..... If we get ICS by June....and I do not believe it will be any earlier, that will make a full 8 months since source code was dropped to the open community. It is also well known that manufacturers have the code months before it is granted open source. With the expertise and resources that HTC possesses, 4-6 months is ample time to build and push an update....
Also i was on a service call and had to do service in one of sprints corporate buildings in fairfax virginia. A sprint tech there told me that the galaxy nexus will have face regonizition technology to unlock your phone. Hopefully htc has something similiar

yeah the only thing that might get me to jump the gun early is depending on the details of when we will see quadcore from qualcomm in phones. The current S4 Quadcore chip is the APQ8064 which is paired with the Adreno 320 BUT that chip is geard toward more tablet and mobile computing devices rather than phones.
Reading more and more around it seems the most we will see at lease in the "near future"(this year) is the MSM8960 which is their dualcore S4 but its paired with the Adreno 225...
Think I read the time we'd see even the APQ8064 is around the holidays too. So maybe next year for qualcomm quadcore S4 chips in phones?
The dualcore S4's are real improvement though still having modem's built in the die and getting the improvement there no one else is thus far...
I am in the minority but I prefer sense UI to asop. ICS is no different. However that is a very small deal when it comes to which phone I choose next. I have the EVO 4g and that sold me to get EVO3D on opening day. While I stick with HTC? Sure but only if they make best product to choose from that can be rooted. They best step it up because gIII looking good and all it would take is Motorola to unlock and I'd possibly leave. They have me.....for the moment

Those are all things that the Rezound has over this phone. The camera has been quoted to be one of the best available on a smart phone, and it has a higher screen density than the GNex because of 720p on a smaller screen. Design is different as well.
Oh ok....thanks for clearing that up.

Never really had a problem with the form factor of the EVO or the EVO 3D. If I could get the same Sony cam that's in the 4s, better camera/camcorder software, like the 3D aspect, so improve upon that. 1080p recorder. Definitely must be more powerful, so either a quad-core processor or a dual dual-core processor works for me.

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.

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.

Got that code to do the tradeup and I plugged in the info and it looks like the HTC Evo LTE is worth just $100 trade up for the HTC One, in case anyone was curious. Don't know how this can be of any benefit Would you be charged the full price of the phone or just $99 ($199- $100 trade up)? Would your contract with Sprint reset for 2 yrs when you got the phone? I'm still reading through the fine print.
Surprisingly the One X is $115 and the One S is $100. Shows you how much they don't value the Evo LTE. Even the old G1 is worth $100. Sad I tell you.
One is not a big upgrade over the LtE so wait for next year's phone if you need to trade in your lte

Not enough to get ONLY $100 for an used LTE and have to buy the One off contract

Just sell it somewhere, you'll definitely get more than $100, probably double that.

I agree with the above, with all due respect to swaze, 100 dollars buy back, as in the context of the OP, it is not worth it.

Get an old ****phone and trade that in, sell your LTE another way.

Yes. However, I bought the LTE off-contract last year, which means I have an upgrade coming up. Really don't know if I should sell the LTE and get the One or wait to see what else comes out. Hate sitting with an upgrade though.
The chipset upgrade is looking less crucial for me than back in the day, the LTE is pretty fast the way it is. So what I would be really gaining is great speaker sound, better camera (questionable), slightly better screen (but how much better is slcd2 --> slcd 3?), and Sense 5.
However, I would be losing the kickstand, dedicated camera button, menu/recent apps button, slightly smaller phone (dimension-wise, the One has more bezel, which equates to bigger phone even though they're both 4.7")
Love the chassis on the One though! But the LTE is mostly aluminum, so it doesn't make it as bad.
Can't decide!!

Get the one and keep the LTE as a backup so you can cancel your insurance

What do you think I did with the phone I had when I bought the LTE off-contract? It's a 3D by the way, and it's sitting in my office for this very reason
I for one am not impressed with the HTC One in regards to it really being worth an upgrade from the LTE
The 1st camera reviews that have come out so far have been beyond disappointing.
In due time a Dev will have the HTC One software running on the EVO LTE
After that, what would be a reason to upgrade if you are not eligible for a full upgrade?
I would also be highly disappointed if HTC no longer gives sprint an exclusive phone.
Thats one of the main reasons why I have chosen to remain with sprint (11 years) as I refuse to have a sprint phone that other carriers offer
because i know that phone performs better on their networks that have better LTE reception

Pretty much sums up how I feel. I may have to see what the beast Samsung has cooked up for the S4. Whichever version had the Exynos Octa is where I will be going.

That means you'll have neither phone.
Isn't the $100 normal for the trade in? I Thought most got that for the Evo 4g and a little more for the 3vo.

Exactly what the post says. All you have to do is read their post, it's perfectly clear English. If you don't speak English, Google can translate it for you.
EDIT:Not being rude, in case it came across that way. I'm just stating the obvious, at least what myself and others thought was obvious anyway....

English is the only language I speak.... I just don't understand what he meant by that last lte statement
It really doesn't make any sense to me.... Not to be rude... Lol
Sent from my Viper'd LTE
It made sense to me. He said he needs a reason to be on Sprint. He said his reason was the awesome exclusive phone. So if there's no excusivity (i.e. same phone on every carrier), then it doesn't make sense to him to be on Sprint, sense the signals are worse than the other big name carriers.
One big reason I'm on Sprint though is the price. I'm willing to suck up the signal quality for a lower phone bill.

Why do some think the One isn't an upgrade? It has a quad core and double the ram. Really, to me, it's a bigger upgrade from the LTE than the LTE was from the 3D (unless you actually have LTE). The 3D was a duo core just as our phone and with the same 1gb of ram. Hell, with the sense 4 ports it was a pretty spiffy handset. Coming to this phone from the Note 2, there is a definitive difference from a duo core processor to a quad core..I think sometimes (myself included) we don't see the next best thing as a justification for upgrade simply because we aren't eligible yet or can't afford it outright. Just my thoughts...

I don't trade in nothing... I sale my old phones for cash locally. Sold OG for $150 when I got 3d, sold 3d for $225 when I bought LTEVO retail etc

Judging by the fact that I'm in the middle of a two year contract, I'm not so sure if I'll be jumping to the HTC One. What are your thoughts? Is it worth the money to switch, and do you think you are gonna get it?

As someone that literally buys a new phone every year, I might get this. However, I won't be able to get it until summer, but something new might be available by then, so we'll just have to wait and see. The money is right, but I'd like to know that there's something else coming with an SD card slot. We'll just have to see what's in store for summer.
I'm getting it. Gonna buy out a month of my moms contract and then she'll be due for an upgrade

Luckily its not a huuuuge jump from the EVO so I'll be sticking with this phone. Plus LTE won't arrive to my area until 'October 2014’ so there's definitely no hurry for me. Kinda wish I would've held onto my 3D.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Me. But work is buying it, and it will be on AT&T (so I'll actually have LTE).
FU Sprint for not bringing LTE to Denver in a reasonable time frame.
Holding off on this phone. I've owned all of the Evos but won't be buying this one. Sprint sucks. I'm waiting until a couple months remain on my contract and then jumping ship to Verizon. Verizon has 4g in my city and have for almost a year and I'm stuck here with Sprint's ****ty 3g service that won't even load a Google search in a decent amount of time.

Yea I agree. Verizon is just a gauge master with the bill, otherwise I'd go too.

I'm most probably getting it, but not sure whether I'm staying on Sprint or not. Each carrier has its own advantages and disadvantages.
Isn't our evo sprints version of the one. What is changing and how is the one x on sprint differnt than the evo lte other than the way it looks physically

Read the thread " is the m7 the next EVO" and climb out from under that rock lol ...and yes I'm def getting it ...it will match my new metal i7 Asus well
ugh i just wish it supported sd cards
I've also had all of the Evos. I personally like the One even without a sd card. It sucks because I bought the LTE outright because I'm not due for a upgrade until April. Oh well I'll just have the LTE and the One. No way in hell I'm giving the LTE up for a 100.00 dollars after I paid 550.00 for it in December.
method1911 Tranquility LTE
Ill mostly find a way to buy the one but, ill probably not let this EVO go for quite a while. This has easily been the best phone I've ever had and I love this phone! I wish it would've had all the crazy development we had with the first EVO. That was so much fun. Everytime you would log on to the forum you never knew what new thing would be there. Which is funny because I almost exclusively ran warm or virus but I read everything. Needless to say, I love this phone and I am excited to see this new one.
I also have to say that the development for this phone is, although not as heavy and as many, I think it is definitely WAY better. Mikey, and superjelly, and these others are really throwing solid builds. I just miss the buzz that used to be here.
Unless the galaxy s4 has something to deter me away then the HTC One it is.
