I might be going to ATT pretty soon, if I do, I have a choice to make. They have a new phone coming out soon called the inspire, essentially the evo for ATT.
So I can wait until it comes out and give it a shot, or I can go with the Iphone since I've always wanted to try it out
no idea other than I'm sorry. Other than that i absolutely hate iphone and love android
Get the motorola Atrix 4g

I love android too, but I would really like to try the Iphone, never know, I may like it once I use xda's iphone site to do what I'd like
Then go for it
Its a lot simpler than android and its a lot less buggy.
But it is noticeably smaller...my sisters iPhone4 is soooooooo tiny in my hands lol also, the camera is nice on the iphone 4.
If you've ever had an ipod touch, then its that same experience sans the phone lol

I give you 14 days after you switch and you will come back to the darkside lol. From what I've heard from friends who all went to AT&T because of the iphone is that their service is absolutely terrible. Wished that they had never switched. But to each is own. Good luck with your future endeavors.
If you plan on going on at&t get the iphone. The iphone is great for hacking and you'll have less trouble breaking it when you do. I mean, once you jailbreak it, you're pretty much set on the idea of it getting bricked. I had a jailbroken ipod touch, and it was great. Never had a problem at all.
And reverting back is so simple; you just have to update it on itunes!

I would not get the iPhone 4 at this point. The iPhone is due for an update this summer, so you might as well wait for the iPhone "5" then. IMO, Odin is as easy to restore as iTunes is, just a little more complicated at first glance. Also, if you are in to jailbreaking(rooting essentially)/unlocking your iPhone when you get it, you will have to be very knowledgable with terminology, like "tethered, baseband unlock (if you want that), SHSH, etc." iTunes makes it *very* easy to update your phones firmware, which can be a bad thing if you are into jailbreaking. An accidental update may keep you un-jailbroken/carrier-locked until a new exploit/tool is released.
I suggest educating yourself with the estimated release of the iPhone 5, and everything to do with jailbreaking/unlocking. Enjoy.

how do you have an iphone on sprint?
Didn't someone just ask this....
Look at your life. Does the iphone do everything you need or want it to do? If so, keep it, if not then do some research on the features of other phones and see if they do what you need.
Don't let someone else make your decisions for you.

ahh you're on the XDA app. On the website, if you look at the left part of his post under his username, you'll see that he tagged himself on Sprint. Thus, my question, "how do you have an iphone on sprint?"
and im sure you meant atrix not matrix ;D stupid autocorrect.
I miss my iphone. Android 2.2 blows compared to ios 4.3 imo. The screen sucks and its slow.
I wouldn't settle for any locked down android phone if I had to choose again. For now my atrix is a dedicated hotspot for my ipad2 and laptop.

where i am, the iphone and atrix seems like a quick trade. look on craigslist?
but be prepared to be tackled with tethering charges XD
i'd switch, then again i never had an iphone. my wife does and i hate the thing. i also had a palm pre (awesome phone but the development for apps sucks).
anyways, good luck on your decision.

I wouldn't even consider it.
Not because it's WM7.
Not because it's "older technology."
But simply because it doesn't have a Wimax radio and yet it has the extra $10 charge.
No thanks on short changing myself.
Thanks for the info. I don't think I can part with my evo anyway. To much customization in android and not enough in wp7.

Windows phone 7 is awesome, had hardware acceleration, Xbox live gaming (friends etc), and I'd very solid. Its just that the arrive itself would be a downgrade even though it has a 1ghz snapdragon the screen is really small. Hardware keyboard is amazing and the phone itself is a very solid build. The 720p recording owns the evos video recording by a long shot. If the arrive was the HD7 (the t-mobile windows phone) I'd say trade your evo for it in a heartbeat since its the same specs but better gpu but no hdmi. If sprint gets a 4.3" wp7 phone like the hd7 or even a dual core im jumping ship.
Verdict: Arrive is pretty much a wp7 evo shift. Screen is 2 small for me but its a great device. I've used it personally. No 4G is a deal breaker though.

People **** on WP7 because they have no idea and they're wanna be fanboys. I love android to death but I can honestly say wp7 is a pretty sick OS. I believe by 2012 WP7 is going to give android a run for their money right now especially because they're already a household name; pushing out updates and playing catch up is what's going on now just give them time. The same happened with android surpassing iOS they just needed time. The new wp7 mango update is a huge leap for them. Like I said just give them time; sprint needs a 4.3" wp7 phone asap man the social and enterprise integration on wp7 is just beautiful.

It was really cool since I had experience with the zune marketplace before so it wasn't new to me. I freaking love the deep Xbox integration how you can unlock achievements and play multiplayer games with friends etc. Xbox live integration is enough for me to drool of a dual core wp7 phone. Their marketplace is coming along nicely I might add. If you really wanna play around with the arrive don't trade your evo just buy one off Craigslist. I saw a few about 160+; very cheap 9 outta 10 phones.

I've owned iPhones, various Android devices and I currently have an Arrive. The screen on the Arrive is a downer when compared to the Evo. However,the colors on the Arrive seems a lot more crisp. in my eyes, The Zune Marketplace is a winner . I think its better than iTunes and way better than Google Music. The games that available in the marketplace for wp7 i ls also amazing. The keyboard is a really nice feature and the on-screen keyboard is one of of kind...its the most accurate keyboard I've ever used.
Some of the things I miss on Android and isn't available for wp7 users is Google maps, Latitude and the ability to text over !60 characters.
Nevertheless, both devices are wonderful devices.

It's crazy, Sprint makes people pay that extra $10 for 4G when the service isn't even available in your area.
Anyways, I've been seeing a lot of Evo's for sale recently, maybe because the Evo 3D is about to come out. But, I haven't really seen that many Arrives for sale on Craigslist where I live. I think, I only seen about 2 ads posted for resale here on craigslist since the phone was even released.

Because people love to complain, especially on XDA.
However, because of the extra $10 I can't justify NOT having a 4g capable phone.
So now that they are both out.. anyone decide which one is truly better E4GLTE.. OR... SGS III
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
SGS3. NO DOUBT. its fast, flawless, performs flawlessly, the software and user interface is amazing, the Samsung version of a way better siri, and the touch sync to other sg3 and just all of that. The e4glte, honestly the user interface is garbage, after having an EVO, sense is boring, and the LTE looks even more boring than sense 3.0. The sense clock is the only cool looking thing and I have it on my evo. I say you would be a fool to get the E4G LTE. 2 years or boringness and blandness. SG3, 2 years and maybe just save your upgrade because you love the worlds best phone to much.
The decision??? Lebron went to the Heat. I am going to sit back and watch how the development takes off, one of the two will draw more attention, just need to wait and see. Going to let the development make my decision!
I think the heavyweight developers seem to be heading to the sgsIII.Plenty of good ones on the Evo, don't get me wrong, but I would give the edge there to the Samsung.
Me personally I have had really good experiences with HTC and I actually care less about exactly who is doing what on the custom ROM scene vs how good is the handset. Samsung may have the edge in many categories there too, but I use my phone as a camera a lot and the camera is looking pretty darn good on the Evo.

This is exactly what apple wants you to do.
well, seeing that litigation doesnt happen without leeches and leeches dont litigate without money, this should go on for another decade or so considering the 1.5 billion settlement.
These actions from apple are what are known as cunning, and cunning is nothing more than the attempt to take down anyone around you while you are collapsing.
