They all have 1ghz processors and only difference is Front Facing Cameras and 4G which are not selling points for me. I need some HTC dual core love to make me commit to another 2 years

I still have a feeling the OG evo will get a GB update before the Shift. That alone makes it not worth it.
The fact that it isn't my kinda phone doesn't matter.

In other words, it all depends on what you want. No need to put down the phone.

Well someone didn't want to wait, games would run smoother on the shift.

They had to add an F in the name for marketing reasons.

Personal choice...they are both great!

I had the shift and it sucks compared to the evo (wich i echanged the shift for ). The power button is way on the back of the screen and way to bulky crappy camera. Im so glad i exchanged it for the evo.

My wife got the shift. Not only does she constantly complain about the screen size being too small but I catch her using the on screen keyboard instead of the hardware keyboard all the goddamn time.

No, both suck! Shift is a cheap plastic piece of crap with only an 800 Mhz processor. It felt like I was holding the old Sidekick. My Mother-in-law has the EVO and playing with that versus my Epic, I prefer my keyboard to the on-screen one. The EVO screen was a little bigger but that was about it.

Evo who? Na I would buy another epic over the evo!

Why do you assume anyone would be jealous? Are you projecting your own feelings upon us? It's common, but something you should look into because it's not emotionally healthy to do that. It will make relationships very difficult until you truly take ownership of your projected feelings.
I'm jealous of neither. They simply exist as other options which appeal to people other than myself at various levels of desire.

it's not the fact that he asked the question, it's how he assumes we are automatically jealous of one of the phones. I am not jealous of either phones, so, I said no.
That being said, of the 2, I would rather have the regular evo... I guess.

I am not jealous of either, especially the shift. Each phone has its own ups and downs. And from my personal preference the Epic is by far the best. I played with them both and my biggest reasons are the display and speed. To me the Epic wins both hands down. The Evo screen is bigger but for me I find the Epic to be the perfect size. I also like gaming which is another hands down win for the Epic, imho. The point is, you will get tons of people that vote for each one. It all depends on the person. So if you really want an answer you need to use them side by side and make your own choice.

If you ask me, the evo its better if you are not into rooting or messing with your phone, however with all the support we got here from our devs, the epic has become one of the best phones out there on the market

How is the evo better stock???

Why would the EVO shift get sense 2.1 and the original only get 1.0

I just don't understand why the lesser model EVO got a better sense version guess that's how they are making us want the 3d even more

The only thing "lesser" about the Shift is the screen size. Aside from the name and Sense, they're two completely different phones and the Shift is the more powerful one.

The real question is, what does Sense 2.1 add that the Evo can't handle?

That sounds like MARKETING?

Shift > Evo 4g

What was the original question? This doesn't make too much sense.

Um, yah, anyways. I'm just glad we have devs who take the time to port the updated versions if sense to those who want to stay on the cutting edge...

Now now I didn't excuse any one in this thread of anything

This is actually my 1st time posting sumthin on the forums but i've been rooted for the last 3 months jus 2 lazy 2 comment lol, but all my questions i have usually get answered bouncing aroung from rom to rom and using search and i kinda mostly do that to get around the "passionate" debates that pop up time to time lol anywho everybody have a good nite

Thread cleaned and infractions issued where needed.
I'm surprised by some of the members here posting and quoting such utter rubbish. Some of you have over 1000 posts and really should know better, and try to set an example. Does anyone here really find it productive to troll, and reply to trolls?
Sort it out, and grow up please.

My wife has the shift, she won't let me root it for her but hers has sense 1.0. I've checked everywhere and have not found an update for the shift anywhere, did they get a ported rom that brought sense 2.1 with it or am I missing something somewhere.

My wife has the shift and I don't see what's so amzing about it compared to the EVO. Granted I'm rooted and she's not, but I played with it when she first got it and now only touch it when she screws something up. All I have to say is Mikg, its absolutely amazing.

Yeah, I saw Android Police post this on Google+ yesterday. I like the 4" display over 4.3"

Yes my first Android was the HERO. The new on looks great, but the no keyboard thing is an issue for me.

I'm liking this better than the 3D for sure if it does come with a 4" screen. I will have my Shift for two more years though... Maybe one if I like what's released next summer, though I will only be a 9 year vet of Sprint next summer so I would still have to pay more than I want. I don't see myself ever owning a device with a screen larger than 4" if I can help it.

Looks good, but no kb = not for me.

Keyboard doesn't really matter to me, the Shift was more about size. I think I could deal with a 4" screen

+1 too big a step unfortunantley. In the era of 2011 you can't have single core proccesors anymore lol. Only thing I could think to make up for it is if it was the new snapdragon Krait proccessors which are appearently 75% more battery effecient

Honestly, I could do with a bit less processing power if it got me a better battery life. To me, battery life is the biggest downfall of Android phones. I just got a 1900mAh battery (slim, no cover needed), we'll see if it makes much difference...fingers crossed.

I wouldn't call a 1.2gHz phone crap. It won't be as fast as a dual core, like the 3D, but it will be faster than the shift, and have a larger, higher resolution display, plus Sense 3.0 from the start (I'm assuming this last part, since the resolution is 960x580, or whatever the 3D is). Plus, more ram, and possibly more rom than the shift.
It's nice to see "mid-range" phones with some decent specs, and not really far off from the halo phones. Depending on when I make my next phone purchase, I may get the Galaxy S2. I would really like my next phone to have a Super AMOLED screen.
