Short story, some one is trying to trade their htc arrive for my htc evo. Has any one had both phones pros or cons? Don't know if I want to part with my evo.

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.

So I've had my evo since it first came out rooted shortly after and been flashing ROMs daily til CM6. And stuck with their nightlies, but I'm ready to move on now. Giving this beauty to my girlfriend, stuck now on which phone to get next. Seriously thinking about getting the Nexus S, but also thinking about verizon's incredible.

I would not get a phone that can't handle an SD card. The S looks sweet but thats it IMO. I had a Fascinate and I swore I would never get a Samsung device again because of the lack of software updates. I had an INC and liked it. Its all a matter of taste. I have had a Droid X and the original Droid and out of all the phones I like the EVO the best and my second would be the original Droid..go figure.
if you go verizon, get the thunderbolt.
at&t the atrix.
t-mobile id get the mytouch4g or wait for the lg 3d phone.

Not quite...my understanding is that it's only a single core processor. I'd rather have the 3D feature and not use it if I have to give dual core up.
OP, the only phone we know is coming soon that's in the same class as the new generation of phones is the Samsung Galaxy S II. HTC and Moto have both released top-end phones on Sprint in the last few months. My guess is that after the SGSII, the next high end phones we see on Sprint will be the next Nexus and other phones designed for ICS.

photon and 3d are already out, and are most certainly superior in specifications to the evo.

Is this an annoucement date or when the phone is actually going to be available?
I had planned on waiting a couple months to see what comes out but I left my EVO in a golf cart this past weekend and before I got back to the course the cart kid had rinsed out the cart and got a little water on it. It wasn't even a lot of water but the phone is acting crazy now and keeps hopping in and out of car mode and goes straight to speakerphone when I answer a call. Not sure if I can put up with it like it is and I not going to spend the $100 deductible to replace.
I'm hoping my 30 day trial will get me a look at the SGS2. If not, kinda leaning towards the photon but need to spend some time with it in store. Was a little underwhelmed by the 3D.
i have seen the Photon but i have not really considered it.
I really like HTC and want to stick with it.
How does the Motorola and Samsung stack up with HTC?

this statement is false..i personally went to sprint to pay my phone bill today and while i was there i gave the photon a test drive..there is absolutly no truth about the ram operating @512 off the dock. with that being said..the photon is a very nice phone speed wise..i imagine battery life is better cuz of dual core..i did not care for the screen or the phone as a whole...HTC are hard to compete with and i will continue to be a customer.

Picking up a GS3 from Verizon tomorrow. Sad to leave this awesome Sprint community and my first smartphone that actually lasted me the entire length of the contract. Also kinda sad that I'm gonna have to keep track of data and hope for workarounds with the Verizon version of the device. But I'll be saving money by jumping back onto my family plan (now that they all have data too, only gonna cost me $40 instead of $75 by myself on Sprint) and the improved signal and service should be nice as well. Thanks to all the developers and members here for doing some AWESOME stuff with the Epic 4G for sure!
I have a fun fact for you "upgraders". Your S3 is going to be new, shiny, and exciting. For us late bloomers who got the epic a year after you did, well, let's just say the LTE quad cores with unreleased swag and EPIC upgrades will make you butthurt. So there!!!!! Yes, I might be an idiot.

LMAO!!! thanks for your honesty dude
I got my white price matched with absolutely no issues, try it out... also I am returning the s III and waiting out for the Photon Q ... I thought I could do without the keyboard, but I miss it too much. I am not as productive with the virtual keyboard as I am with a regular keyboard. It's not even that the VK is soo bad, but I am more likely to put off things like enter calendar dates and take notes and reminders because it is more of a hassle than with a physical keyboard. It was also a bit too big for me to comfortably use with one hand.
Bottom line is if you are thinking about switching but are attached to the keyboard, you may want to wait for a little longer to see if another slider comes out. I think a 4.3" slider with a 720p screen would be absolutely perfect.
I just played with the GS3 and I have to say it doesn't feel as solid in hand as the gnex, gs2, and especially the evo lte. However, it seemed the most fluid of them all.

I got my white price matched with absolutely no issues, try it out... also I am returning the s III and waiting out for the Photon Q ... I thought I could do without the keyboard, but I miss it too much. I am not as productive with the virtual keyboard as I am with a regular keyboard. It's not even that the VK is soo bad, but I am more likely to put off things like enter calendar dates and take notes and reminders because it is more of a hassle than with a physical keyboard. It was also a bit too big for me to comfortably use with one hand.

Is the Photon Q going to have a locked bootloader?

I have a fun fact for you "upgraders". Your S3 is going to be new, shiny, and exciting. For us late bloomers who got the epic a year after you did, well, let's just say the LTE quad cores with unreleased swag and EPIC upgrades will make you butthurt. So there!!!!! Yes, I might be an idiot.

They won't do it unless it is blue to blue. The model number has to match exactly. I had to swap my white for a blue to get the $50 back.

Depends on the BBY. I walked in, asked some questions about the buyback and protection plans, then said, hey, do you price match Radioshack's deal; the associate called Radioshack, they said $150, he said okay. Color wasn't even a thing.

Haha, you could say I perused it X^D
Didn't see the s2
In any event, I don't really think it matters.

Apple really doesn't realize that a lot of Android users will not switch to Apple, even if the iPhone is the last smartphone on earth. I'd happily go back to a basic flip phone even if someone offered to pay me to take an iPhone
(I didn't say I'd refuse the offer - I'd use the money to buy a phone that I wouldn't hate myself for using, and the iPhone would be an ugly coaster/doorstop/replacement clay pigeon...)

Forget that I would use an iPhone now if it has a bigger screen but it there were no other is then blackberry and iOS the iPhone here I come. I could never revert to basic feature phone or that very complex (in a bad way) Blackberry.

Honestly, I would rather not own a cellphone if owning one meant supporting a corporation as corrupt as apple is... :thumbdown:
Wouldn't all currently sold models remain in the U.S. ? Also the original Epic 4g is not on that list.

I don't see why companys have to play dirty like this--it won't gain them much marketshare in reality. SGS II is just a better phone than iPhone, and Apple needs to understand that people will be upset if they're the ones responsible for it being removed from the market. Just my $.02

Do you honestly think apple gives a hoot about the people? LMAO!!!
Teach a person a day how to search!
I hope Tim Cook and his lawyer cronies get a shoe to the face in public. Even though the Epic 4G is several generations old it's still better and has more features such as 4G, >3.5", AMOLED, micro SD card slot, removable battery, slide out keyboard, etc. than the latest iPhone 4S. Only the iPhone5 will be catching up to it.

Atleast she's happy

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.
These are funny:
