Greetings All,
Just wanted to share some pics of the HTC Evo 4G and the Motorola Droid X side by side. The pictures were taken from a Samsung Captivate. These are two high end Android base smart phone and they both looks lovely, but I know we all have our views. Like which one looks more sleek, more sexy, more refine. let the opinions begin.....
Damn tough choice, I like both form factors. I would need to borrow a Droid-X for a while to really see lol. After closer inspection Evo all the way!
I actually HATE the look of the droidx. I almost never say thar about a phone. Honestly the Microsoft Kin was seeker then the X.
I like the way the camera looks a little, but the asymmetrical thing is a dealbreaker.
I love my 4g to death. It felt like heaven fell to earth when this handset dropped on Sprint, because I already had a contract with them.
I think most reviewers of the phone don't know how to manually focus the evo4g's camera. It takes better pictures then an iPhone4 I think, despite the crappier sensor (by some measures).
The one thing about the Evo that I would gripe about is the ****ing keyboard. Oh man is it a POS.

My gf has a DroidX... I like my evo better, although I would appreciate a good music and pics transferring program like vcast. I absolutely hate the camera on her X

The sensor of the EVO is not crappier than the iPhone 4 sensor. In fact the EVO is better at taking pictures outdoors, but the iPhone 4 takes the cake for indoors. My (twin) brother has an iPhone 4 and I took a ton of pics to compare. The EVO wins easily if the picture is taken outside.

Maybe I wasn't the best at making use of doubletwist, but using it for my ipad and evo both I ended up duplicating my pictures a bunch of times. I gave up.
what happened to the bottome left of your evo???

Where do you get that wallpaper that's on the droid x? Love it!

I hate the Droid X because of that ugly as hell hump.
This is a little tangential, but what is that EVO running?
Looks like ADWLauncher but with Sense clock/weather and stock lock screen.
Anyone know?
I was going to hold out with verizon and get the droid x instead of the evo. Then I broke down the math, and even with early termination fees verizon couldn't come close to sprint on a per month basis even with the extra smartphone price on the evo (we have several smart phones on the family plan). After seeing those side by side pictures I am definitely glad I switched. The evo form factor is already bigger than I would prefer (but man do I love this screen size) and the droid x actually appears a bit bigger. To have basically the same screen size with a larger form factor would have annoyed me if only a little bit. The evo is already a monster on a belt clip with a work blackberry attached. The batman utility belt jokes are getting old, but the phone isn't.
Maybe beautiful widgets for the clock

Looks like Fancy Widget or that Sense for CM6 metamorph posted a few days ago.
I'm appalled by the Droid X. I can't believe they didn't refine the design any more than they did. From the huge hump in the back for the camera, to the row of buttons on the bottom/front. That is one device that I would not use and I'm really surprised THAT's what they come up with as their current gen offering. The EVO is already an obvious choice over the Droid X (IMO).. Motorola is gonna get smoked by the next HTC offering.

Yep. Fancy it is. I don't know how I've missed it before (maybe because it doesn't show up in market search )
Thanks.
I was offered a trade for my Evo and 100 bucks for an Epic and the money isn't really THAT much of an issue but I wanted to know would I regret it in terms of not as many roms for support for the Epic or is the community as large and as Nice.
I did enjoy holding on in the store and if you look at my past posts I'm not a troll trying to start a debate I just want honest opinions. Would you go with the epic if you owned and Evo and why?

Okay, I think i'm going to go with it. I'm a phone junkie anyway and am willing to go with something else. I am just nervous about getting burned over the lack of development on this section for the phone. Are there any cool mods for the Epic?

While we may not have as many devs tha evo users have, we do have some very good devs that do amazing work. We don't have 100 roms and kernels but we don't need 100, the roms we have are blazing. If you can i'd pick up the epic over the evo

I just came from the EVO a week ago. 2 things I don't like so far about the Epic are the charger plug being on the top of the phone and selecting text is not nearly as easy as on the EVO. The main thing that irritates me is the charger port placement. When I use the phone while charging the cord dangles annoyingly in my face. The text selecting is not going to be an issue once I'm rooted of course. Other than those things the Epic is a far superior phone imo. To add to the other post of pros, I'm getting much better battery life with the Epic compared to the EVO.

Awesome I think i'm going to make this deal happen before the guy gets second thoughts lol. I agree about it not needing as many roms as long as I can play my Galcon and Angry birds on it i'm good.
I really don't care for a physical keyboard as I haven't had a phone with one since the samsung instinct (went from the Instinct to the s30 to the Hero to the iPhone to the Nexus One to the Evo. And throw in a couple of Blackberries here and there along the way. lol) Swype and even swift keyboard work quicker for me than a physical keyboard. Maybe i'll get re aquatinted with it now.
I too like to change phone often. I was on the exact same boat a couple weeks ago when someone offered to trade my EVO for an Epic. The only thing we kept was our memory cards. In the beginning I was regretting as the charger cable got in my way, less development, and felt less sturdy. But after warming up to it a definetly prefer it. The screen is gorgeous and the hummingbird is defintely faster then snapdragon stock. I do miss 2.2 but it should come in november. Noobnl is also working on porting cynogen 6.1 so that's exciting news on the rom front. Just my 2cents. Enjoy!

I got my evo on launch day. Before the end if its days it was running cm6 rc1. U got my epic on release and it us far superior then running my evo with cm6. I haven't looked back now regretted making the switch. I think u used the physical key board once. I love having swype put installed. I didn't like how the swype beta worked on the evo

The Epic is better then the evo in specs across the board, the rest is personal preferences.
im coming over from an evo and i dont regret it one bit..love the phone..even if its not on froyo yet i feel it performs better than the evo..i wasnt too big of a fan of touchwiz but with the launcher options that isnt even an issue..as far as the roms yes there arent many, but theres a few gems out right now and from what i understand the devs are hanging back until the update to froyo..so in my opinion i would say yes trade it for the epic but what i like you may not like
Well the deal was done and the selling point was the Evo section and showing the guy how to download rom after rom after rom for the Evo. I felt like putting my child up for adoption when he was holding my Evo and now the Epic is sitting in the corner like a pets first night in your home. Warming up to it in baby steps.
I do love the physical keyboard though. I think it was already broken in by the guy so it didn't feel stiff at all and my fat thumbs were having a field day. Now the next debate in my mind will be to Zagg shield or not to Zagg sheild. I wish they were universal because I wouldn't have given mine to him.
The case around it makes it bigger but has saved mine. Never used a screen prot. I've beat this thing up and havn't been able to hurt the screen. Crazy strong. I love the smooth glass feel. Can't do the protector. Good thing they used special glass.
The USB at the top is a hit and miss. I Never really ever charge it because I just switch out from my second Batt. I get a way better charge using the ext charger. Hold 100% for a good hour. But I can see it being a pain while using it.
But... if your plugging it in for the computer or in your car. Top is best. It will sit on the seat or in a slot/cup holder better.
I recommend a second Battery for every one.

Definitely agree. I picked up another one recently and it has been great. I use mine very very heavily and it usually only lasts around 9 hours. That's with heavy listening of music, texting, emails, etc... Definitely loving the fact that I never have to have it sit and charge

Lol I know what you mean. I had my Evo for awhile and bought an Epic a week after release. I switched back and forth on a regular basis between the Evo and Epic and always felt like I was cheating on the Evo. Finally made a committment today and sold my Evo for $425 and stuck with my mistress.
The only things I really miss about the Evo are some of the HTC apps as well as the sense widgets, mainly the email widget. Dont get me wrong the Evo was a great phone, but the Epic has a lot of features that won me over. Mainly the keyboard for playing games (Punch Out FTW!), the overall speed difference, and swype. I had swype on my evo, but there were always issues with it.

@a454nova: I did get an extra battery in the deal which was great for me. And I just realized how much better it is to have it charging from the top is in the car as i'm always driving. thanks for the obvious but I was oblivious to tip.
@chino0131: I have gotten used to not having them with the MIUI Rom for evo. Which was my favorite with the exception of Myns version 2.2. If you end up going from an Epic to an Evo I highly suggest the Myn rom. I also just got the dag-on desire animated flip clock on my evo. lol. I am going to miss sense and I must say the "Epic is better" is hogwash. Without the stats you wouldn't notice anything. But I am very happy with my Epic.
On another note, I'm still on the fence about getting a shield still. I'm going to look up the glass to see if it really is scratch resistant and what not. Can't wait for Froyo!
I reccomend getting a realook or clarivue screen protector over zagg. Zagg is thicker and more durable but the realook amd clarivue are super clear and thin and don't compromise the look of the screen at all and they feel almost as smooth as the glass screen. The screen is one of main selling point of the phone so u don't wanna comprimise the clarrity of the screen.

Where can I purchase these screen protectors? Are they only for sale online?
I went from an Evo to an Epic about a month ago or something. Overall I like the Epic, I'm just really starting to miss flash 10. I watch TV shows online all the time and can't do that anymore without froyo.
I think the Epic has better quality pictures. The screen is nice. The battery is longer, but I'm still waiting for my 2nd and 3rd batteries to come in the mail so I don't have to sit by an outlet before the end of the day.
My main selling point on the epic was the keyboard, which I sometimes get annoyed with when it doesnt recognize all the letters I type.
I had a screen protector on mine, but it keeps falling off so I finally just left it off. The way the glass feels and how the screen is unhindered is so much better, but I'm also paranoid of it getting scratched. Tough decision.
Overall, I'm dying for CM or a port of it. I like AOSP much more than any other launcher.

Yea online is ur best bet. They not too expensive and u can google coupon codes usually. These screen protectors are static cling so no sticky residue and no need for water solution/messy install like zagg.

I put an eXtreme guard protector on my Epic, had the same kind on my moment.
If you put it on well, you can hardly tell its there. It's the kind that goes on with a little soapy water.They're $2.49 with free shipping now, I think I paid $3.99.
Has a much better feel then ones that are just stick on, again you can hardly tell it's there even when using it.

this is just random story. If your going to put up bad comments and be immature then go ahead..I really don't care.
Got rid of vibrant.
Upgraded to g2. The hinge is just horrible. It wobbles even with keyboard closed.
Got rid of g2. Got nexus one.
Trackball broke. Wifi didn't work no matter what rom I flashed. They sent me a new one even though I bought it off cl.
Got rid of nexus one got mytouch 4g.
It's a good phone. the materials they used is really good. But comes with too many qc issues.
Such as deadpixel loose battery cover. Washed out screen,off centered front facing camera, button makes squeaky sounds.
I had to send it in 5 times to get a good screen..but still had other problems such as slightly loose battery cover, light leaks, off centered front facing camera. Got rid of it and got vibrant. Couldn't be any happier.
Never leaving my vibrant.
shows that samsung has good products. but non existent customer service
The Vibrant is very so-so. 6 months into ownership, my battery (which was never spectacular to begin with) is showing signs of wear and tear.
I am currently looking and waiting for my next phone.
Samsung's (lack of) updates due to their re-releasing of the Vibrant (first as the Nexus S, and now as the Vibrant Plus). Has soured me on the brand. I am going to take a very hard look at Motorola's offerings. Hopefully T-mobile will get a decent Moto phone in (NOT the cliq or the cliq 2).
HTC has been resting on their laurels a little bit.... I expect to have bought a new device by June or July.
Grass isnt always green-er on the other side. I like the vibrant but I will upgrade when a high end physical keyboard phone comes out. I wish the samsung epic was gsm.

I'd rather have good quality hardware that's reliable, considering i can upgrade the software myself

I called Samsung...........and they asked me "what's customer service?"
I will say that this is the best phone I have had since i migrated away from blackberry, granted this is the only the first android device i have owned but not the only one that i have played around with. I will say that the lack of support directly from T-mobile and Samsung is disappointing, however the support from developers and fellow members on xda more than makes up for it.
Same here. I like my Vibrant. I have heard over and over HTC, Motorola owners wish again and again they had a Vibrant.
I wish they didn't name the Vibrant Plus the same name as the Vibrant! FFC, nor 4g will get my to purchase. I'm holding out for an 8px camera, and a dual core.
I'm keeping my eye on phones like the Optimus 2X from LG. HTC has some promising offerings.
I like Samsungs hardware, I just don't like how they treat their customers.
No doubt, I LOVE my Vibrant... It is Samsung's politics/strategy/lack of compliance (open handset alliance) that has me annoyed.
like I said in the past, Samsung should make the hardware. leave the software updates to google.

G2 - not sure what the big deal with the loose hinge is, I don't have a problem with mine and I def don't use my phone upside down.
Nexus One - looks like there's nothing wrong with it after the exchange then but the phone is pretty outdated now It still has fantastic build quality though.
MyTouch - agreed on the QC problem; if you do get a perfect one though, you'd prob be happy with it.
I'm happy with my Vibrant right now after putting Nero on it, the only thing I have against it is the ****ty GPS.
^ agreed, the Nexus One I have is absolutely the best built phone, and most comfortable that I have ever held.
I just came to the Vibrant from a MyTouch Slide. The Slide is a decent phone, but the hardware was outdated from the start, and now it's still waiting for the 2.2 update while original MyTouches have received it.
I'm giving up on manufacturer updates altogether. Root, apply rom of choice, enjoy.

That's what I thought wwhen I bought the g2. But I don't use my phone upside down. It wobbles when I touch the screen. The upper part(one with the screen) moves up and down. Wobbles like hell.
Nexus one.- yea I got like a brand new one. didn't have much warranty left so got rid of it since I am not going to pay 60 dollars to fix the power button. Nexus one slcd has a power button flaw.after a while your power button will stop working. And if you have nexus one you probably know about the screen..doesn't have the true multitouch.
Mytouch-yea but almost impossible to get a perfect one. Like I said to send it on many times just to get the screen that doesn't wash out.
When I got it I was happy then I found bout the light leaks and ffc off centered loose battery cover.

So had to get a new Samsung epic from sprint since my phone messed up. I'm debating if I should go back to the sprint store because the new epic keyboard feels weird sometimes. I'm approaching almost a month so I think I've broke it in. But does anyone remember having there Samsung epic new and the keyboard feeling weird in the beginning and then fixing it self later on. When I say weird-- it's that sometimes the keyboard feels just like I remember my old one worked and then other times it feels like there's a plastic bag behind the keys. Am I paranoid or should I head to Sprint.
I thought it was weird at first but that was from using a TP2 for so long. I still miss that keyboard. If HTC would have slapped that keyboard on an EVO, now that would have been an awesome phone.
The TP2 was the gold standard for keyboards. I've been looking for a new gen phone to match it ever since.
Arrive's is good. I even like the Evo Shift's kb better than our's, but other than that, our phone takes the cake

I know what you mean about the plastic bag, but that's only ever been temporary for me. Honestly though, you'd be better off just sticking with it as they won't replace the phone just for that. They'd put a harvested front half of the phone on, which includes the screen, so you'd be getting a used and non refurbished screen.

I got my replacement from asurion about a month back and I do feel the bubbly feeling behind it. Plus a lot of skipped keys even with the keyboard patch. It was brand new too, not a refurb. Im trying to break the buttons in myself by pressing them.. it seems to be getting better on most keys.

So I'm guessing you spend more time talking on your captivate than actually using it as a smart phone.
I don't spend more than 10 minutes on the phone when outside so having the big phone to my face is no big deal. If you plan on talking for a long time that's what bluetooth, speakerphone, and headsets are for. Browsing the web, watching video, and gaming is what I mainly use my Note and previous smartphones for...this phone overly satisfies what I look for in a phone.
Is this a troll thread? Obviously we speak via telepathy on our Galaxy Note DUH.
Got my Note about a week ago, absolutely amazing, has been the envy of just about every other smartphone owner in my office. (particularly the people who just forked out ~$800 for a 4GS, when i tell them i got the note for $730 delivered)
few people gripe about it being too big. imo, if it fits in your pocket, it's just right!
as I jot down things on post-its constantly this is PERFECT, my desk and monitor are no longer covered in yellow squares.
I do miss the trackball from my HTC desire tho.. but otherwise this is better in almost every respect. (still think the Stock Samsung Icon set looks cheap and nasty tho)
Rooting and installing CWM was a peice of cake, looking forward to some quality custom roms to hit this very robust device

Okay... Still in India.. Saw a live gs2 today... Man, USA is really far behind in having live displays around! Dummies everywhere! First time I saw a live gs2, even though it has been out for 6 months.. Man that things is freakishly fast, my captivate looked like a freaking kid.... Didn't notice a whole lot of difference in the displays though, point to be noted here is that I use voodoo color. My girlfriend actually said my captivate looked better, at full brightness n same galaxy lwp. I laughed, of course... Lol!
But man o man.. That 720p display looks sweet on the note, imagine how great it would look on a screen of 4.6".. Plus a manageable form factor.... Nexus here I come!
