Did anyone see the Samsung Epic on this weeks episode of Celebrity Apprentice?
Nope, but I saw a Samsung Epic, HTC Evo, and Kyocera Echo on Fringe =P
Yep.
Noticed it several times this season, but tonight it's really gotten a lot of camera time; they should have given it second billing in the credits.

Like said above, it's been on pretty much every episode of Celebrity Apprentice this season.
Oh my god I saw that... I was like what if they were browsing our forums... soo cool
I'm a casual viewer so I only noticed it today.
nope. but they used it to maked video calls home on survivor. i was surprised that show was still on.
Also seen the Epic and Evo Shift 4G on Law and Order Criminal Intent last Sunday. Epic is an under the radar phone.
I saw it a bunch this season already.. LOL..
I been pointing it out to my wife. hahahaha
I saw it!

Did they show the Real Birth Certificate Authenticator Scanner(tm) App?
Meatloaf should had used the Epic to throw it at Star Jones's head.
no, but I saw a guy in my dentists office with an epic.
Darren from the Hak5 netcast on Revision3 rocks an Epic.
I wonder if any of the ones spotted have Implaler's keyboard mod on them

They're phones given to them only to use on the show, they're guaranteed bone stock.
I was just joking around. I don't see how Samsung can't even get their keyboards to work of all things.

Comparing the screen to the iPhone, is it glass or plastic?
I'm switching from iPhone to Evo but I have not had the chance to hold one and compare build quality.
My question is how much lag is there? Not just the home screen but the apps. FOr instance, when you open messages, how long does it take to display things? That's the number one thing I hate about Sense. Too much f-ing lag.
joecrack305, if you're in miami let me know which store so that i can come check it out.

Wait for the op's pic.
sorry havent responded
i have both hero and iphone and they feel plastic, the evo def feels like glass.
lag wise not existent at all i swear its so smooth
jvs60 - no ones technically suppose to know about us having the evo, but every corp store in america has one person with a evo. my supervisor is the one with the evo and i know my manager def wouldnt be a happy camper if i told you to swing by, but go to any store in miami and ask to see the evo advocates phone test your luck.
tried seeing one at my local corporate sprint store. met the advocate who had it, said he was sworn to not show it off or he would get in trouble.
it is so awesome. I feel like the guy from the burger king commercial who has the small hands and hates going to burger king when I am holding it. It is pretty big, and comes with an 8gb card in it. No lag at all when putting live wallpapers on there (unlike my rooted hero). Damn I love this phone!
giddyup!
I feel like such a school girl! This thing won't be out for another 3 weeks, and I'm scouring the internet for everything EVO!
From what I've seen online, the lag is minimal...remember it has a Snapdragon 1Ghz Processor in it...Go play with a HD2 and you'll get a feel for the speed...Android 2.2 is supposed to be faster than 2.1 from what i heard also.

Coverage reasons in my local area.
They are great in metros but in rural coverage is spotty and most of the time roaming. At least around here.

Can you play with the keyboard? Is it easy to type and stuff? I am coming from using a slide out keyboard so I am kinda worried about having to start using a onscreen keyboard.
thanks
The hero was my first onscreen keyboard and the iPhone was my second
The hero I'd give a 7
the iPhone 10
evo so far a 10
The screen is so big and easy to type on it's amazing for the hero I use swype now and I will probably use that in the evo when I switch

Voted. I can't believe they pitted these two from the start! This shoulda been the epic final! Hahaha
Doesn't seem like an apple site, evo's doing well so far, voted.
Dont look like they kept this going....wonder why? Could it be iphone got its ass kicked didn't wanna give it bad publicity are they afraid of apple suing them.....
its still going they just make a new page for each match instead of it being 1 page. look around you should see the rest in about 2 weeks evo vs gaalxy s should be going
the funny thing on most of the surveys they get around 800-1200 votes the evo they had around 6000. evo won with almost 90%

Thankfully Samsung is handling this ad and not Sprint. Not as good as the Vibrant ad (Avatar helped) but it will certainly garner attention that's desperately needed.
That commercial is awesome, it makes me want the Epic and Halo: Reach more. Both are gonna be Epic!
I think the commercial was stupid, but not any worse than other phone commercials.
Starts out with intense Halo action cut scene, *but wait* its actually video thats being played on a cellphone!
Don't really say anything about the phone itself other than the s.amoled screen. Nothing mysterious like the Verizon Droid commercials that leaves a lingering sense of curiosity.
More like they are saying "look at this awesome game coming out, now look at this awesome phone!"

I agree. I thought the commercial was kinda dumb and I doubt anyone will buy the phone based on that.
Looking back ... Samsung/ Sprint let this phone get steam rolled by the Evo ....
just wasn't right .... then i think we all remember the whole Froyo wait they promised it a month after release but ended up taking a few months well.... then we said "oo they took so long with Froyo ... they're sure to release GB soon" ... Lol look where are we now -_-
Samsung's motto should be "Same **** different day"

Been watching the development of the epic well where is it? But the phone sure looks purty. Cmon get her done already. I am tired of my wife asking when can I make my epic look as cool as your evo.

Lol gahuck it is cooler than your evo. Its been out 2 days duh
Haters gonna hate...
I had an Evo, I couldn't get past the compromises HTC made on hardware and build quality, as well as laggy interface issues.
Now with the Epic, I don't have to make those compromises, everything's like butter and it feels solid, no screen separation issues here.
I have both, the Epic grows on me more and more everyday. And by the end of this week, it'll be my daily driver. Gonna activate it and use my Evo as an MP3 player.

To be honest... when I pick up my EVO now, it feels like an old piece of junk. And you can make it look however you want. Just load in another launcher.
Except for themes... but themes are lame
I personally cant wait to see how developement goes for the Epic. My EVO is flying at the moment thanks to the great developers on XDA. Hopefully beofre too long my Epic will be the same, if not better! We shall see
Week one, what's the hold up
Shouldn't we have lots of development already done on this thing? I mean, it came out Tuesday folks. You expect me to sit on my butt idly waiting till next week or something? If I've gotta wait till October, I'm canning this thing and going back to my Palm III.

Haters lol, I own both of them read the post. I let my wife use the epic. All I asked is where is the development. And yes WOMEN like themes. And flowers. And romance but I guess that is gay 2. All I was stating is that the development for the evo was like bammm and still is. Whereas the epic is like blahhhh. Even the threads barely move. I'll go check over at sdx.

If any of you still have your Evo's, take a look at this video on each of your handsets side by side.

The difference is night and day. Our screens really do pwn the Evo's.
Development is kinda' now because the Evo was barely released a few months ago then the Epic came out.
If the Evo had been released a few short months after the Nexus One was released, development for the Evo would be on par with development for the Epic at this time. Hypothetically speaking.
all you guys need to chill out
naww but really the epic has been out for 4 days now and we've made great strides so far. The hero took about 4 weeks to get root and another 2 weeks to get its first rom. We have good devs that re willing to sacrifice their phones to try to bring these things here. So its no problem for me to wait patiently!
haters
Hey Pongoface,
I really wasn't trying to hate. Just thought I'd be my retarded usual self. I caught the jist of what you were saying and I'm definitely looking forward to being cooler than my Evo friends! Now the hill billy talk...I've got no idea where that came from.

Maybe I should. So much for playing devils advocate to start a spark. Yes Chill my comeback was childish. But your racist remark of calling me a hillbilly was uncalled for. If you don't think that the way you used the word is racist then you are sadly mistaken. You don't know me or my upbringing. Get off my thread if you have nothing good to say about development of the epic. Good luck to you chillaxin to the maXin.

Okay, not a holy snap cool, but some of you may care to know that an EVO was used to call Massive Dynamic on tonights ep. of Fringe.
Just a quick glimpse, but still good to see the evo in the media.
And again later in the ep - no HTC logo and the Sprint logo is 2x sized! Lol.
Shhh....I didn't watch it yet!

Funny part about this, is just the other day, there was a side discussion on how MOST tv shows are littered with iPhones, iPads, etc. Anything Apple. Not to mention every commercial break has an iPhone commercial, and on Bones, although they didn't SHOW an apple, one of the characters used the phrase, "There's an app for that".
There was an episode of "The Closer" where one of the detectives whipped out an Evo to take a video confession from a suspect, but other than that and last nights Fringe, everything else is mainly apple or the occasional Blackberry.
I saw this!
The wife thinks I'm a total nerd as it is, so I can only imagine what went through her mind as I was sitting on the couch, flashing kernels and roms on my new evo, watching Fringe (the geekiest show I know of right now) and I point to the TV and yell "OMG IT'S MY PHONE BABE LOOK!!" and nearly have an involuntary nerdgasm.
She just shook her head. Hahaha.
What was the messaging app he was using? Just a mock-up app for the show maybe? I kinda liked it.
You guys should watch leverage. The tech Guy on that show always has some new HTC phone. I've seen him with a touch diamond, touch pro, and an incredible. There was one episode where he had either an hd2 or an evo. Couldn't get a long enough look to tell.
