I figured since there isn't a topic on this handset yet that I'd go ahead and start one. Android spin is reporting the phone will release on sprint by the end of July. Does anyone have any information on what will be different about the handset other than the radio. I don't see why sprint would give it a different moniker if its the same as the international version.

Whosdaman got an email from his source saying that it would be coming at that date. From what I see WiThin=WiMax+Thin. So, they're marketing two features of the phone(4G and size) with one name. So, that's my guess t the name change.

Nice. It'll have ben out 2-3 months before my upgrade is due, so I doubt I'll get it to turn around and a new phone come out.

it'd probably be cheaper to buy a brand new one from craigslist or ebay than to use your 75 discount and lose atleast a year of your contract agreement
I just upgraded to the epic a month ago lol, looks like I'll have to put a few bucks to the side till its offically released
Posted by some phone named the Epic.
Can't wait to see it come out! I barely got the Epic in March but I wouldn't mind the quick change

I have been sitting on my upgrade since february, preordered the evo 3d, then heard about this phone a few weeks ago. If you look at the specs, this thing blows the evo 3d out of the water. Internal memory is huge and the bench marks are insane. So, it looks like I will be sticking with samsung.
Happy I got my epic brand new in box from a friend for 3bills. I refuse to lock a contract.

Best way to do it. Ill probably sell my epic on Craigslist and but the within on Craigslist or eBay. I hate signing contracts

been sitting on my upgrade since february as well, specifically for the sgs2. i had the moment, intercept, transform, and the epic so i might as well keep her goin samsung style.
So I got my Epic in December. I stupidly locked into a 2 yr contact. I definitely want this phone tho. Even if it means breaking my contract and starting a new one. What's the smartest route to take?

I'm still here, played with the 3D today in a store, always thought 3D was a gimmick, but I got proved wrong as its a really great feature. I'm gonna still hold out though and wait for the Within & Photon since it looks like Motorola is finally seeing the light as they unlocked the Atrix bootloader today.
Just ordered mine today. And if something better comes out in the next coming months I'll be ordering that too lol.

Not quite...my understanding is that it's only a single core processor. I'd rather have the 3D feature and not use it if I have to give dual core up.
OP, the only phone we know is coming soon that's in the same class as the new generation of phones is the Samsung Galaxy S II. HTC and Moto have both released top-end phones on Sprint in the last few months. My guess is that after the SGSII, the next high end phones we see on Sprint will be the next Nexus and other phones designed for ICS.

Blackberry Bold Touch and Blackerry Torch Touch on 8/21, Samsung Galaxy S II in the next month or so, the Nexus Prime within 3 months or so.
the conquer is lame, and if youre gonna get a kingdom, you might as well get a 3d...
photon and 3d are already out, and are most certainly superior in specifications to the evo.

Is this an annoucement date or when the phone is actually going to be available?
I had planned on waiting a couple months to see what comes out but I left my EVO in a golf cart this past weekend and before I got back to the course the cart kid had rinsed out the cart and got a little water on it. It wasn't even a lot of water but the phone is acting crazy now and keeps hopping in and out of car mode and goes straight to speakerphone when I answer a call. Not sure if I can put up with it like it is and I not going to spend the $100 deductible to replace.
I'm hoping my 30 day trial will get me a look at the SGS2. If not, kinda leaning towards the photon but need to spend some time with it in store. Was a little underwhelmed by the 3D.
i have seen the Photon but i have not really considered it.
I really like HTC and want to stick with it.
How does the Motorola and Samsung stack up with HTC?

this statement is false..i personally went to sprint to pay my phone bill today and while i was there i gave the photon a test drive..there is absolutly no truth about the ram operating @512 off the dock. with that being said..the photon is a very nice phone speed wise..i imagine battery life is better cuz of dual core..i did not care for the screen or the phone as a whole...HTC are hard to compete with and i will continue to be a customer.

Normally I roll my eyes at these threads.. but.. whatever, anyways
I am on a friends employee plan, meaning I get an upgrade once a year.. that upgrade is dec 26th.. and I don't kno what to do.. the epic was the first phone I got on his plan.. it was my first smartphone.. ive learned a buttload about android, flashing, etc.
I was thinking I was going to wait for the galaxy nexus to use the upgrade.. but as my upgrade approaches I'm getting an itchy trigger finger on the gs2..
I'm starting to lean more towards just waiting til next december for the galaxy nexus.. what do u guys think?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
First make sure the plan doesn't change to 20 months after this upgrade since Sprint is eliminating a lot of upgrade eligibilities. The GS2 is a great phone. So if you don't want to hold out until the LTE phones come out with quad cores in the summer then go for it.
Hm I wonder if that applies to the employee plans.. ill have to check.. if I am set to get another upgrade next december I think I'm going to do it.. I doubt minneapolis would be fully up and running with lte until then anyways

NOW is that finger so itchy? LOL. I could have upgraded at Radio Shack because of an error in their system but didn't because the Epic is awesome for one, can't live without the keyboard for 2, and then didn't want to be stuck with WiMax for 20 more months.
That 20 month news spread the metaphorical preparation h on my trigger finger.. I don't kno that I would want to be on a wimax phone for over a year after lte hits..

I'd wait too... Like Kenny said quads are coming. LTE is coming. And if you can wait a little longer into late next year you might be able to get a handset with CDMA on 700Mhz band (recovered Nextel iDEN spectrum) with much improved coverage along with the quad-core handset with LTE 4G. (though it could be 2013 by the time handsets and network are ready for that)
20 month upgrade cycles sucks but you have an Epic with lots of dev activity and the potential to get ICS via CM. I'm sticking with it for another year in all likelyhood... save up some cash and wait for a CDMA/LTE Android flagship device that will keep me cool for a minimum of 20 months.
I'm going to wait.. I've been waiting so long for official cm7.. I'm not jumping ship just yet.. plus the epic community is the shiz..

I have an upgrade available on January 1st and I've had the same problem. I want to use the upgrade because it THERE! I thought about the E4GT, but it's another TouchWiz phone. Then I thought about maybe if/when the Galaxy Nexus comes to Sprint, but then there are quad cores coming out shortly after that! Who's to say Sprint will get those right away? Such is the life of a techie...

Quadcore lte qwerty?! For me I would add aosp and samsung hardware to that.. but that's wishful thinking.
I'm willing to trade the keyboard for a 4.5in or above screen.. I would prefer aosp, but honestly I would probably settle for tw.. as I'm just going to flash a rom that removes the garbage anyways..
Is the quadcore going to be similar to what some dual core phones are now? The software doesn't support the processor so it really is just 1 core?

EVO 4G will be right next the C64 and its 64K ram expansion unit and tape drive within my personal museum. As for next phone..who knows.. too early to tell.
Is HTC gonna get hit with all the patent mess from Apple? I lost track of what was going on but last I saw, Apple was suing over a patent on the ability to click on a phone number within a webpage and have it dial the number. At the time, it wasn't going to affect imports for a few months. Anyone heard anything?
The galaxy nexus looks pretty appealing. Although I would like to stick with HTC. Hopefully they come out with a phone that has a screen like the nexus or the epic touch.
I get one more Premier Gold 1-year upgrade on April 1st. If the Galaxy Nexus is out by then, I'll get one. Otherwise, probably the Epic Touch 4G.
I wish HTC would come out with something hot between now and then.

Gold Premier (10+ years) customers were given one last one-year upgrade if they were close to their date. Don't remember the time frame, but my acct reflects this. Got my EVO last April, and I'm eligible 04/01/2012.
They ended one-year upgrades for Silver Premier customers last April. Gold customers ended 12/31/2011, with one more upgrade granted.
