they really should have made it a 4 inch or bigger screen, still still will be a deal breaker for me! but Dual core would be very nice
I saw this and was highly disappointed that the screen wasn't bigger. Hopefully when all the real specs come out it'll make up for it.
Sent from my EVO's 4G You?........I thought so
It's not a dual core. They picked apart a rom for it and it's the same newer version of the snapdragon as the G2.

To those waiting for a smaller EVO w/keyboard (though I like my Evo's screen size)....i came across this article a few hrs. ago. If the specs are true...I am buying one....I was not planning to get one without a front facing camera....but now I will get this....
Although..I wish that new HTC PRO fro windows was the next EVO #2. AND I DO NOT PLAN on buying those UGLY FUDGLY covers.......ewwww.....lol.

Looks like it will be a decent phone, but I had a Hero before my Evo, and a main reason I upgraded is a bigger screen and better processor. Now at least I won't regret buying my Evo when this one comes out. I love the design, feel, and huge screen on the Evo. Plus I don't need a slide out keyboard, speakers or whatever they may invent. But we'll have to see when some more pics come out from this new phone.
My guess is they're marketing this more towards the female population. I can't speak for all of them, but as far as my GF is concerned, she doesn't want a phone the size of the evo. Sounds like a mini-evo would be perfect

Yeah, this is a little underwhelming.. I definitely would not use my available upgrade to get this over my EVO. I don't think this is their next flagship, more like you said, a way to broaden their audience even more.
It does look like a solid phone, just not quite an upgrade from the EVO
Actual photo of the phone with the keyboard open is out:

I've been using the N1 for a while but have always itched for a bigger screen, is it time to upgrade or may be wait a bit longer
What are your plans?
the desire hd does sound really appealing...depending on what the price is, and if it has us 3g, i might make the switch. it would be even better if at&t didn't require a smartphone plan for the desire hd
I would, if they made the following additions/subtractions :
Add:
Bigger battery
HDMI out
RGB Trackball
AT&T 3G
Subtract:
HTC Sense
I might depending on a few factors. First if it's really gonna be that cheap plastic looking like the previous My Touch phones. Secondly if T-mobile offers a bogo within a month or like like they did the vibrant. My wife and I have our upgrades a year apart that way we can generally do a bogo and each get a new phone yearly (the exception being the N1 as there was no bogo, and I had to have it ). We are definately getting either the G2 or the MT HD.
Edit. Wups, misread the title. I thought it said My Touch HD, sorry about that.
not switching from a amoled to a none ...i switch back and forward from a vibrant to nexus one.. vibrant simple stunning ..also have a evo which is same as the desire hd and when u put them together poor evo looks very crappy ..... i do like the desire z which is the same as the g2 . might get the g2
If the desire comes to the US as the MyTouch HD and adds a front facing camera, I just might have to pull the trigger. Even Sense is starting to look appealing.
I'm quite interested in the qwerty form factor now to be honest. Although a big screen and Swype is very appealing. Wondering how well the battery will hold up with that screen sucking on the juice. Is it SLCD or SAMOLED?

Super AMOLED is for Samsung Devices only.
The real question is:
Will it support US AT&T and/or T-Mobile bands?
I'll be holding on to my N1 until manufacturers start releasing 1.5GHz or higher dual core phones.

Agreed. The 1.2GHz dual cores may be tempting though.
If the Desire HD supports TMOUS HSPA+ speeds, I would like to get it. But with all phones, I would have to play around with it for a while before i actually bought it. Buying a new phone without knowing what the glitches/drawbacks are is too risky anymore. I bought the HD2 thinking it would be the world's greatest phone before I played with it. Boy, was I wrong!!

Yes, I am. If it supports AT&T 3G, than it is an impulse buy for me. I really want a 4.3" phone for AT&T, and the N1 fails at that. (Although I still love it <3)
If the Desire Z becomes available with at&t 3g. Possibly

Well they better release a pyramid equivalent otherwise its a re badged EVO 4G. They need to improve the screen resolution to the qHD resolution at the very least. And they need to make it out of a alum. body and a little thinner and lighter

I agree...I want at least the innards of the Pyramid (if not better), plus an aluminum body. I think the Evo looks great but it's a little lacking in terms of build quality. With all the money HTC raked in last year I think they can afford to up the quality of the materials they use.

YES!!!!!!!! Of the five HTC devices I've used all of them have been badass for their time, and they seem to always the easiest devices to root.
The pyramid gives me a lot of hope though. HTC seems to be really good at putting out a ton of handsets with almost the same hardware, but making each of them special and cool in their own right. If were luck it might even have a freakin laser beam built in by the time we get it!

I dunno man. I used the HTC Touch Pro and that build quality was ****.
i remember reading about the evo last year being like "4g! this sounds cool!" and going to the sprint store to check out the evo. Since then I've had the evo.
When Sprint announced the Epic 4g, i got kind of excited again until i saw and handled it and realized how crummy and cheap it felt... the cheap plastice feel and look.
....is this what we are to expect from Sprint this year, or will our minds be blown by an even more awesomer EVO 2 4g^2.
Sprint please surprise with something awesome that looks, feels AND performs awesomely!
Im excited about the pyramid, it looks like a beast. I hope this comes to Sprint soon.

sounds amazing hopefully it will get dev support.
Im getting the thunderbolt but im going to keep my Sprint line active until March to see what they announce. If they dont come out with something on par with the newer phones coming out im going to dump Sprint and get a tmobile prepaid month to month account. There are some awesome phones being dropped at the MWC conference but all of them are GSM. I've got to get another GSM account I miss being able to get whatever phone I want and pop the sim in. First phone id get would be the Galaxy S II or this one.
Looks sweet, but I'll stick with htc. Dev support is more important to me than bling.
I will be first in line. Don't you dare cut in front of me or I will shove that iPhone up your switching behind. You guys at the end of the line.

I like HTC and all but im starting not to give much of a damn about them anymore. I havent flashed a rom in forever and the build quality still needs improvement. As long as I can root im fine.
Allright, look cell phone companies: 3D is great and all, but not for a phone. I could care less about having 3D while I'm calling or texting someone. Let's keep the 3D with TV and gaming, that's bad enough.
I may be completely wrong on this but I don't see 3D taking off on phones...
I've seen a lot of talk about new phones but is there a successor to the Samsung Epic?
I talked my wife into buying the Epic as well and we love them but we always keep our eyes on that 2 year mark (which is coming up this Summer)... wondering if we are going to stay in place with the Epics or save for something else.
We are particularly fond of the physical keyboard... don't want to jump to a phone without one.
Love reading all the great threads on here... keep up the great info.
s
The EVO 3D seems to have caught the Epic community's eye. The Epic can do nearly everything that the new EVO can, except the Evo has a better CPU (dual core), TV out (hdmi), and it's 3D option.
No top tier phones with keyboards have been announced yet by Sprint. Samsung has created the "Galaxy S II" which could be used to produce an Epic 2 but that is between Samsung & Sprint to decide.
I believe Sprint is releasing a windows phone 7 HTC device with keyboard, but I'm not interested in wp7.
How are you hitting the 2-year mark when the Epic was released last summer?

FTFY
Wait...this is Samsung, God forbid they put out an up to date phone.
I know it hasn't been released yet. But I/O is here in what 4 days?
I theorize 3.1 because it will be a merge of the Tablet and Phone branches of Android, and I doubt they would down grade the version number of the tablets. so the number would have to be >=3.1
Yeah the 4.3" screen may be a problem for those looking for an Epic 2. I think it would be absolutely huge. I personally am going for a non-kb device next. After all, the KB on the epic was pretty useless with all the skipped characters which forced me to become comfortable with swype.
I'd be all over the Evo 3D if it had an amoled display. Any phone w/o amoled will need to have very strong contrast levels with very low black's otherwise it will annoy the heck out of my to pay for a phone upgrade with a lesser quality screen.
I figure I'll be on the Epic until November 2012 since they removed the 1 year upgrade from my plan. At that point I may just keep it and flash over to Boost mobile for the uber cheap monthly rates.
I bought my Epic outright... used... I jumped into Sprint service with a blackberry curve... bought an EVO and Epic cash/used... but in excellent shape.
I've got another year before I start to look,everything else will be "obsolete"

I was looking at the evo3d but i am going to wait till the phone is launched first only because i think the phone is going to be locked down alot and i think root will take some time. I will probably be looking at the gsII. I want my amoled screen and 4.3 is an awesome screen size for me. Plus sammy has done pretty good about not locking phones down so far.
I've got till early Fall of next year before I start looking at amazing phones again (just think what they'll have then...lol)
BUT, if I were looking for a new phone, the EVO 3D is definitely the way to go.

Why do you assume we'll have to wait that long? Evo 4G was rooted before it even launched, I was flashing new ROMs 2 months later (based on my post history).
I agree that Beats is lame, though. I see students wearing their Beats headphones and telling me how epic they are, I have them listen to my 8-year-old Sony DJ cans (which aren't even that amazing to begin with, compared to the Sennheiser set I had before them) and they totally outperform. Plus, they cost less than half what the Beats label costs these kids (or, realistically, their parents).
I think the Evo One is a great phone, it was obviously announced yesterday because yesterday was the day launch-day Evo 4G buyers were eligible for full upgrade. But that's fine with me, I've been looking for anything that could make me feel as good about upgrading as the Evo did in 2010. Wasn't too stoked about the SGS3 or the Galaxy Nexus, I was hoping HTC would bring something big to the table. They've been faltering as of late, hopefully this will represent a comeback.
Now that's the phone that may keep me around with Sprint after my current contract expires. I just hope that they would have the LTE network in my area soon. WiMax??? I got to use it only twice when I visited Chicago ever since I got the EVO.
1.2mp front cam. i'll pass. what a let down. what a joke. pathetic phone.
not worth the $200 upgrade.

I leap to presume as the EVO4g Design has been out for a long while and doesn't even have a listing on XDA Forums. And I have yet to hear of ROM support for it.
It looks like a promising device. I wish they'd have stuck with the ONE brand name, but that's just a minor quibble. Unless something else hits in the latter part of this year that strikes my interest, this might be my next device (coming from the OG EVO).
Personally I was bit disappointed yesterday, after hearing that sprint would be possibly getting a one-x. I was hoping that they would have kept the one-x the way it was with the two extras that they added. I guess I just wanted something fresh in the aesthetics department as well as specs but o well. I also think that if they had stayed with the look of the one-x that the possibility of more sales could have come from just the looks of a new phone. Customers that dont really care about internals are going to see this 4gLTE one might not be pleased.
Overall, it looks like a decent phone. I'm personally not happy with the sealed battery/case. So I will wait to see if the Samsung Galaxy 3S also has a sealed battery/case before making a decision which phone will replace my Evo OG. Of course, I won't look at either until there is broad LTE coverage in Atlanta. So probably 2014 at this rate.
Defiantly not buying it.

You can do it on an Evo 4G by simultaneously pressing the power, volume up and volume down buttons. So I would assume the new Evo would also have a way to do it. Worse case, you have to wait for your battery to drain.
I'm pretty excited about it! And fyi the front cam is 1.3 mp and its capable of 720p video. I'm not really big on the design, but the features look to be enough of an upgrade to my og evo to warrant paying $200 for the upgrade.
