Worth waiting for Nexus-3.0 ?

I am an upgrade-oholic A year is all I typically keep my phones. I bought the Nexus-One the day it came out, then picked up my current EVO 4G on launch day. I am itching for a new phone.
Saying all that, I am looking for a slightly lighter and thinner phone, the EVO has become a tad too bulky and thick for my tastes, I do like what Samsung is doing with the thin and lightweight form.
Anyways...the upcoming Nexus-3.0 rumors makes it sound like Google really wants to wow us big time with the next Nexus. Most likely HTC built, with Quad core, Tegra 3, 2gb RAM, etc...and be the first phone on market running "Ice Cream Sandwich"
As nice as the EVO-3D will be, it seems come December it will be replaced by this much better next gen product, and Sprint is said to be tapped first for release.
What to do ? Get EVO-3D now, or just hold out for the big beast Nexus-3.0 ?

If the rumored specs are even close to being accurate youll be waiting till next year.
To be honest, why wait? If that's the case, u might as well wait for what comes after the new nexus phone....then wait for the one after it. Thing about technology is that u will "never be caught up"
So get the EVO 3d and be happy. Because when that nexus 3.0 comes out, some new EVO 4d will be announced lol

You're right. Get the best Android phone this Summer, in the EVO-3D and be happy with that. And then decide if I really want the Nexus-3.0 once the official specs are revealed with release date.
Specs wise the new EVO-3D should run stock "Ice Ceam" very well. I highly doubt the hardware in the 3.0 will be night and day better than the 3D ?

wait for the nexus 3.... wen that is getting ready to be released there will be some better device on the horizon... ohhh then wait for that. At that time this new uber 8 core phone running android creme brulee will only be 6 months out!!!
If you like upgrading that much just shell out $600 every 6 months
Or just upgrade now and trade in the 3d at radio shack...still probably worth over $200...hell, until a week ago an evo 4g was worth $180 to them ....there is also ebay, but, too much effort for me...much better return though......anyway, then...get the n3...sure, costs a little more but it isn't full retail....you get to ride the cutting edge and your don't have to worry about the n3 getting rooted.
That's my new plan.

There we go Sprint! that's what I've been waiting to see!
You've been waiting to see a bad review of the HTC One??? Ok, baby, you got it, a bad review of the HTC One and HTC in general.
to be fair the reviewer says the phone is a beast. the only negative aspect to the review is that they do not much care for sense. My Flyer is my first HTC device, although I do not mind sense I wouldas the review suggest, wait to see what development does with this device after it has been out for a couple of months. For me the option to have a sense experience is great as long as the option to have a non sense experience also exist. This is just for me though, I guess I kinda agree with the reviewer
I want that also, but I really don't like the design of the phone. I guess that's what cases are for lol
I didn't get to hold it, buy it is much sexier in person. I didn't notice a difference in finish on the back of the phone in person. The camera is ridiculously fast.

Hello all of my Wonderful EVO lovers! As a junior developer who is getting this device (and plans to release some cool stuff), I just wanted to see if there is anyone that I might happen to know already in this Forum that I could work with. None-the-less, this isn't just about that, but getting to know everyone in this particular forum as well. I hope that you all can vote and answer and be proud to get such an amazing flagship device for Sprint.​
Edit sorry for missing a few major devices, this was made late! Just throw your device in a category you think it would fit in then go ahead and whack a post on the thread to tally your vote for it.

Hopefully this will be the phone I'll keep for 2 years, I've never kept a smartphone for more than a year. Or puchased later than 3 months after initial release.
I doubt anyone will come from the LG Viper 4G LTE lol, its pretty fresh on the shelf compared to everything else on the poll.
Is this from most recently? I started in the Hadnspring days ala Treo 600.
Evo 3D most recently. I guess I didn't realize people didn't upgrade every time a new sweet phone came out. I try to just stick to HTC though, since I like Sense.

HTC says ONE only flagship device for 2013....EVO???

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!!!!
The article is on Phandroid!!
Maybe sprint will release the Htc One in late spring like the EVO 4g Lte was? We don't even have a official release date from sprint yet
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Its confirmed that it's definitely a March release....we just don't know what day!!!!! It would be horrible if that's their summer release because I know I'm willing to wait for a device with the s800 and I'm sure most geeks feel the same way and HTC isn't Apple....geeks are HTC's bread and butter!!!!
Maybe we'll get an evo with that sweet sweet Snapdragon 800 chipset in the summer.

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.

We have an amazing phone, it's more powerful than all of the phones out right now, has decent battery life, decent reception, and doesn't look half bad - it's the tail end of the last generation of phones. It's nothing to be ashamed of. And we'll have a fully working CM very soon too. Yeah, the One is nice and all, but really this phone is a beast that's gonna stand on its own for quite a while. Top-of-the-line phones always lose their crown eventually.
yeah, we couldn't order DNA's anymore back in my store lol...guess she's dunzo.
I like my DNA. I don't think its worth it to get an HTC One because the screen is smaller, and no QI wireless charging(But when will i ever use it?) The DNA seems to be almost the same size. I can care less about the front speakers, but more storage is better. My DNA is smooth enough. The One's camera seems cool, and UI looks nice(but we may get an update). Hopefully we get a DNA+ instead.
Here's more on it from Android Central

To answer a question above yes we will still see updates. The og incredible and charge got an update recently for crying out loud and those have been retired for over a year. I can bet however our sense 5 update just got pushed back. Hopefully not the usual Verizon time frame where we don't see it until 2014.

I like my DNA. Just hope the Htc one doesn't turn out to have issues like TB. Htc seems in a bit of a rush to put out more phones that are not super updated phones over the last model. I like the DNA screen size. Not real concerned with speakers as DNA sounds great with external speaker. Camera is fine, I will live with the camera till next upgrade. More storage would be nice but now not a deal breaker. Sounds like Htc is taking after motorola same phone some minor changes.! doesnt have me in a rush for a new phone as wtf another version is just around the corner in a few months lol. Just think of what will be out 2 yrs from now!!!!!
