I keep seeing posts about the Nexus One. FYI

http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/26/google-updates-nexus-one-page-tells-verizon-customers-to-get-a/
Google already updated Verizon with news that their new phone will take the place of the Nexus so I believe the Evo will also take the place of the Nexus for Sprint.
The reason why is because of the new phone specs that leave the nexus behind. The multi-touch screen for one.
Read the link and you will understand too.

K..............

The EVo is the brand new hotness the Nexus1 is old and busted?

i love the n1 i wish it would have had longer lifespan because now the evo and htc incredible and making the nexus one look like a hero...

No, the Sprint Nexus One will still be coming out, most likely by next month. Only reason Nexus One was cancelled for Verizon was for the reason that the Incredible and Nexus One have very similar specs, but the Incredible has a few more advantages. They wouldn't really want a similar phone with similar specs. As for the Evo and Nexus One, they don't really have similar specs, one being that the Evo is 4G. It would be smart for Sprint to pick up the Nexus One as some people don't like the size of the Evo such as me.

what theme are you using?

I really hope Cellular South stay on top in the Android phone game. I hope to upgrading my phone by the end of this year to a newer faster Android. It would be nice to see CSouth with the incredible or Nexus One.
By the specs it's just as good.. and might I say better.... than the Nexus One

the N1 will be out in may or june.

His theme is seriously one of the best I've seen. I run it without Sense. It's freakin' great! And I've told him that several times. I love it.
As for the N1, I heard in a few weeks. So, I will most likely getting it. Sure, I'll have to fork out the money, but the Evo or Sprint rather will not be getting 4g in my area for a while. Granted I do live 1 hour from Atlanta, GA and that city has 4g already, but how long will it take to branch out from there? I don't know. Plus, I'd have to hold the Evo to see if it is too big for me. The N1 seems to be about the size of a phone I could handle. I keep my phone in my front right pocket. The Hero is a great size. But it seems that the N1 is a bit slimmer. I hope so. I can't wait to check one out at the Sprint Store/Best Buy. Sure, Evo has some cool features, but if you don't have 4g, it goes to waste....And Sense is nice, but I find myself not even using Sense anymore. And the N1 has a trackball. I have found it useful many times when typing and having to go back and select something...While using my finger to select it just did not get it. Kinda frustrating. So, yea, I think the N1 is my choice. For now.
It would be a good idea for Sprint to get both. As well as Google. I mean, I am sure the CDMA N1's are just piled up since Verizon just dropped out of the deal. Sucks cause I would like to know how many would have sold.

Damn straight, Agent J.

Sprint better get the Nexus. There is no way in the world I would waste my money on an EVO. It's just not worth it... other than 4G its not appealing to me.
Nexus One FTW.

You forgot to mention that you don't care about an 8mp camera, front facing camera, extra 512mb ROM, 4.3" screen or the next generation touch sensor that the Nexus will never get.

If the EVO had no Sense UI out of the box, I'd be happy. But I'm through with waiting for HTC & they're delayed updates. The EVO is supposed to have 2.1 when honestly I think thats pretty lame if 2.2 is the new deal.
Sense UI just ruins it for me & I know they'll come out with an AOSP rom or whatever, but I dont wanna have to wait for that. And the least the EVO could do is put on a virtual trackball like the Legend... I find it pretty lame its only a touch screen.
Maybe they'll improve overtime, but the EVO is just not there for me IMO.

The specs are essentially the same as the epic, in that there is a qwerty keyboard, 1Ghz hummingbird. I'm not sure about screen resolution, but considering that this is also a CDMA phone, does anyone think it's possible to port the Indulge's 2.2 rom the Epic?

Check out new 4G LTE phone from MetroPCS. Similar but lesser model to Epic 4G. However, they have competitive offers, such as no contract unlimited plan for $60/mo.

You might want to look over on the SDX Developers forum. The Indulge looks a lot like the Samsung transform. The Samsungs are usually over there. Vampirefo is the developer to ask about the Indulge. He was the main guy working on the Froyo port for the Transform.

This hardly matters given T-mobile's poor 3G coverage compared to practically every competing major carrier in the US.
It's sort of like the Evo/Epic 4G. Yea, 4G was nice but it's not like I'll have it anytime soon. I'm waiting for Verizon and/or AT&T to launch LTE, or maybe go back to AT&T and get an HSPA+ device. All I need is about 1.5 mbps consistent download speeds and I'm more than happy, TBQH. It's just a phone.

They should make their coverrage better.

Yawn.
Lookie who's back to threadcrapping.

OK I get the want for 4g. I dont see the point in buying a phone with close to the same specs when we have such decent phones around the corner.

Galaxy s 4g is not worth the upgrade for a 2-3 seconds faster page loads. I will hold onto my Vibrant and my soon to be HD2 until the tegra 3 arrives next year.

i guess he meant to write which would you like better, not an actual pole. id say the Evo 3D just because i dont want to pay a termination fee to leave sprint. dual core phone, and 3D is just a added feature. dont care about it, but it's nice to have. plus i think i'm going to get a seidio 3500 (hopefully if they have one) for the phone just because I enjoy the one i have with my evo.
BUT if didnt have a contract, galaxy S2 hands down.

Disagree. Like I already said somewhere I love my current EVO but Galaxy S2 has better specs and better design then EVO 3D. I guarantee Galaxy S2 will have better battery life too.

Worst. Excuse. Ever.

I'm going EVO 3D. I like my Specs but I prefer HTC software, I like our EVO 4G devs who plan on getting the 3D & hell I can't b*tch about a gimmick I haven't tried & a feature I can turn off if I don't like it. Oh & Sense 3.0 smells like WIN.
The Epic had a better benchmark than the EVO 4G too & but I don't regret not getting it.
Its really the XDA devs' fault that I stick with HTC, not so much the brand loyalty. :/

Galaxy S2 for me...though I'm jumping ship to TMO as soon as I can get kicked off of Sprint.
Purchased my EVO on launch day and major quality control (light leakage & b-spot) which Sprint or HTC wouldn't man up and fix it without any downtime on my side (at least loan me a damn phone while it's in repair for a few weeks); did not return/exchange it within 30-day limit due to stock shortage. First HTC device and my last.
PS. Wimax is pathetic in my area unless I'm standing underneath the sun.

Evo
Personally I don't trust Samsung, they may have brought us the Super Amoled screen but they haven't made any serious software leaps in ages. HTC sense steps up its game with just about every new version of Android. HTC definitely has improvements to make but I'll patiently wait it out with them.
On that note I vote EVO 3D(even though all I really want is the upgraded processor)

Can we toss the nexus s 4g in the mix???

I did hear of a "G-Infinity" in the leaked T-Mobile roadmap. It was slated for beyond fall 2011.
I can see it now, the worlds first quad-core icecream sandwich smartphone...

The proper name for the phone, before the tmobile de-branding nonsense that they are famous for, is HTC DOUBLESHOT. It should become available in the next few days.

Have to agree that the MT4G Slide is completely ug-o. Its a matter of personal taste, of course. But it looks more like a throwback to smartphones from a couple years ago; rather then the sleeker, more recent HTC designs. If a similar type phone is coming soon, and not nearly as ugly, I'd pick that over the MT4G Slide as well. Just about nothing is known about the G-Infinity, so it may be just that.

Its one of the deciding factors, not at the top of the list though. But when two similar phones are compared spec wise, it plays a bigger part. You do have to look at the phone alot, so it might as well look good.
When I was choosing between the G2 and MT4G, they had similar specs so it came down to what looked better. I liked the professional look of the G2 over MT4G
Now for the MT4G Slide, its similar to a Sensation. Again similar specs, so again it will come down to which I like better. Again it wont be the MT4G.
But if a physical keyboard is important, the MT4G will be the best choice right now. Im able to live without a physical keyboard now.

I think the MT4G is a good looking phone. but...I really hate the look of that logo and name. It makes the phone feel kiddish and unprofessional compared to the Desire Z/G2. Hardware wise, it's almost similar but slightly better. And the build quility seems better with the G2.

I lol'd. And yeah the mytouch series of phones have never really enticed me. But... if it had a 4.3" or a 4.7" screen then I'd probably go with it. But for now, the sensation looks like a better buy.
I wanna see if the next physical keyboard phone will have a bigger screen. I'm having a hard time using the touchscreen now since I've been using my gf's sensation. Also, I feel that the g2 keyboard can be improved. When I type on it, and I want to type faster, I slow down because the tactile feedback and placement starts to throw me off?
