its only a 1.2ghz SINGLE-core. WHAT UP WITH THAT!?!? either way it is coming out for those lookin to upgrade this year or that want the latest and greatest but with all the dual core phones out right now who would want to waist their money on a single core phone knowing that a dual-core android slider will more than likely be available within the following year? sammy need to step up the hardware for keyboard users. hopefully thatgets changed before launch then maybe ill consider using the 1-yr upgrade
Thx for posting. So what the hell is the difference between the Epic and Epic 2? I mean, I'm already OCed to 1.2 w/ hummingbird, 8mb camera, 4" display. Unless is has a super-duper-AMOLED and some other insanely yet-to-be-named features, I don't get it.
Thanks for not searching, there were only 2 other threads about this and we need more ...

Epic 2 seems like it's simply an "updated" Epic that is targeted towards new users in the high end Android phone realm who want a keyboard that might hesitate at a year old phone. Doubt they had current Epic users in mind when they made the thing. Plus there are probably a few people that are sold by the "2" on it. To me, Epic -> Epic 2 is like moving from the old PS3/XBox360 to the new slimmer ones.

Yeah, if I didn't need a keyboard, I wouldn't have gotten the Epic in the first place.
Its not a bump like the Evo got, but its going to make a very ridiculously nice midrange phone. They will probably bump up the ram and give it gingerbread and give it a Super AMOLED+ screen, which easily puts it on a level playing field with any Tegra 2 phone on the market. There is no real need for dual core right now. For people with an original Epic, there is no need to upgrade to an Epic2 of course, but the Epic will remain a very capable and very high end phone at least until 2012.
My next upgrade will probably be a quad core phone sometime in early 2012. Nothing coming out now, not even the super sexy GSII is that big of an upgrade form the Epic. If Samsung could get us gingerbread soon and if we could get some AOSP or CM7 on here, there will be zero need to upgrade to anything else for a LONG time.

Meh, if you bought the evo you would be thinking I should have got the epic, I am so sick of not having a physical keyboard..
Life is full of shoulda woulda's, I probably will stick to a HTC or a Motorola smart phone next time for the exact reason you listed. But the devs here keep me happy with my epic, I have no buyers remorse only because of them.

Wow, way to beat a dead horse.....You say the Epic has taken too long to have its updates released? I haven't heard that complained about by.....everyone on the forum. Maybe next you'll enlighten us with a complaint about the bugs in EB13 perhaps? I don't think it's been complained about enough. Heck make it 2 posts for us!
Yeah because this phone is completely broken PoS compared to the Evo. It's UNUSABLE.

Evo= Outdated overhyped POS
don't get me wrong our phone is far from perfect also but our issues will be fixed soon enough 8)
OP the Evo is a good phone, but with all phones you're going to get tired of them eventually! No, the Epic's GPU doesn't suck, and yes it took awhile to get a update, but it takes a while with every phone maufactuer! And lastly Evo vs. Epic is old already we're not going to flame each other.

Exact copy of the GSM Nexus S except for the CDMA/EVDO/WIMAX
Fromg the google blog:
It features a 4” Contour Display designed to fit comfortably in the palm of your hand and along the side of your face. It also features a 1GHz Hummingbird processor, front and rear facing cameras, 16GB of internal memory, and NFC (near field communication) hardware that lets you read information from everyday objects that have NFC tags.
In addition, today we’re excited to announce that Sprint customers will soon be able to take advantage of the full set of Google Voice features without changing or porting their number.

Because its a Google supported phone / Google dev phone. All software comes 100% from Google directly. Samsung doesn't touch the software. It will get almost all future updates until the hardware cant handle the software. The Nexus One, which is pretty damn old now, just recently got official Gingerbread, and will likely get Ice Cream.
Yea but what he meant is...
Thanks to the hardware similarities we wont be far behind them in updates so why pay all that money for basically the same phone w/o a keyboard when all these Beastly phones are about to be released it would be a waste to get hardware that is outdated by the time its even for sale 8)
I personally hate physical keyboards now. Mine is just wasted, unused bulk.
True Google software is worth it for me. Dual core CPU's aren't even close to being utilized in smartphones yet anyway. Not until apps/software are written to support them.
The Hummingbird can still hold its own.

Because not everyone needs all the bells and whistles. The average consumer doesn't even know what a core is, let alone why they need two to (as they will describe it) "make a few calls, play a game maybe and shoot a couple of text messages."

Because by the time dual cores become actually useful to people who don't play with benchmark tests, you are going to need a new phone anyway.
Having said that, I'll probably wait for quad core phones before I upgrade.

This. If I could survive another year with my Evo I could do so easily with the Nexus S. Seems pretty tempting. Might not be the most epic of upgrades ... and no LED notifications / removable storage is pretty silly in all honesty, but its a step up in other manners.
Too true about the tablet, too. I want a Xoom but not sure I even really need it at the moment. Was thinking about using some of the return on one but I'm not too sure. Time will tell. Hope the Evo3D is cool, don't doubt it'll be a beast.

I'm on the fence on what my next phone is gonna be. Evo 3D or Galaxy S II. I'm partial to the GS II. The specs sound incredible but don't want to get it & have no Dev support. Case in point, the Epic. I've heard from Myn personally & he's on board with the 3D & I've heard through the grapevine that Aamikam is too. So what about Calkulin, toastcfh, flipzmode, ViRuS, netarchy, and others. Sorry if I left anyone out but those are off the top of my head.

Well I my upgrade came June 4th so I can grab the 3D on the 24th or wait for the Within whenever it get released. I'm trying to narrow it down because last year I bought the Evo on release date and purchased the Epic a few months for my second line. I walked around with both for months but rarely used the Epic. It was an alright phone, and spec wise it was better than the Evo but the devs are what really made the Evo for me. That and the fact that I despise TouchWiz with all of my being. Finally got rid of that second line and trying to make a good decision. Want to get the Evo but pound for pound the GS II is the champ. To me the dev support is gonna be the final decision maker. I'm a flash-a-holic and I need my fix for new and different roms.

Id switch if I could do it cheaply. I am a year in almost of the 2 year with my Epic. If I could upgrade for like a hundred dollars I would in a heartbeat. Not paying 600 or more for this phone though out of pocket.
Hm there might be two variants of the gs2 one with sammys processor and the other with the tegra 2, any chance they hit the drawing board again with the "epic 2" in mind as one of those variants? Considering someone did a device search and came back with "D710" ?
Just a theory, seem valid? Lol

I'm not upgrading any time soon, but if I was given the gsii, I wouldn't decline lol.

well, you might be in luck then...
check out my recent post from an old thread
I'm not quite at my 12 month point yet and got an early upgrade 'scheduled' for when i hit that mark..
now the new phone might be "WiThin" reach (pun intended)
WiThin will not have Tegra! It has Mali GPU and Tegra phones have GeForce GPU. I guess that means SPH-D710 is WiThin. Amazing that on Nenamark, the top 8 phones are GSII. BTW here's the link

It's SPH so it's definitely sprint and it's got Mali so its probably the GSII and performs like the other ones do on the test. Also, it got WIFI certified in May if that means anything.

No, I still like my epic. But, I'm bringing my wife over to sprint and I need to find her a phone to make her get rid of her iphone.

Big mistake I think. If she loves her iPhone she will not like switching to an android phone. Goodluck to you sir!
I've heard early August, which would be one year after the Epic release but yeah, I'm on that phone when it's available. Will definitely pre order too
