Looking for advice: Nexus S 4G vs EVO 4G - EVO 4G General

Hello,
I've owned an EVO since its release date last year and have recently upgraded to the EVO 3D. I like my EVO still becaue it is rooted and great to run AOSP ROMs. But now that I have the 3D I see little use to run any Sense ROMs because Sense 3.0 on the E3D is just so far superior. Anyhow, I am considering trading/selling my EVO for a NS4G and wanted to get the opinions from those of you that have used/own both.
Thanks in advance.

As long as you aren't going for a contract to get the Nexus S 4G, i'd say go for it. As usual, an new nexus is rumored to be right around the corner (Few months?).
Also, Sprint will be pushing a new update for the NS4G that will (should) fix alot of the problems people are having with the radios.

I will got for the nexus own it and love it as aosp but the 3d kick ass with the UI
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d

It would be a Craigslist trade or something along those lines, so no contract. I just feel like the EVO and EVO3D are so similar that its not worth having both.

Get the nexus s; I say let go of your evo 4g so that way if you get tired of driving the hummer (evo 3d) you can pull out your lexus (nexus s) lol. Whats the point of having 2 large phones that are very similar?

Sprint has a tradein prgram...$150 for your EVO 4G....

My wife has the ns4g and be have an evo I would say as long as it's a straight trade go for it. Ns4g is better than the evo in alot of ways but not better enough to shell out cash for. Does oc to 1.4 stable.

Main reason is that I cam trade my EVO with a little bit of cash for a nexus. The SGS2 is demanding a lot of money right now and probably will continue to do so. In addition, if I want the SGS2 I can swap the nexus or 3D for that when it becomes available.

Exactly , so I think you'd be better off waiting. As previously stted, 150$ buy back at sprint on the evos, so you could trade it towards a galaxy s II or something else by that time.

After how HTC handled their last update for the EVO, I'd wait for Galaxy to arrive. Although Samsung's performance with their update for the previous version was not stellar either. But, I think they are being more proactive now.

Sounds promising, but I'm not going to hold my breath for anything until the actual announcement. My EVO isn't even 6 months old yet, but if they come out with something that blows my mind, I'll probably pay retail for a new handset.
Lets go sprint. I've been with sprint since they came into the cell phone world and their service was the worst. Now I am quite glad that I stuck with them for all these years.

Notice that Sprint.com/Nexus redirects to the home page, where if you type something else instead of Nexus it gives you a 404....
Now if only sprint didn't kill my ability to upgrade my damn phone! Guess if it's that amazing I will have to buy it off ebay
Oh man....I'm going to have to get an NS 4G and an Evo 3D. Double fisted phone junky.

Currently working on trying to get a Nexus S 4G . It seems when I sent my evo in for replacement under warranty Sprint decided to count that as a new phone and set me back 22 months before an upgrade . I found this out when I called about my date since the release is tomorrow . I sent in a dispute about that and the fact my upgrade date got changed after I signed the contract (Hey why the hell not give it a shot) . The nexus S will have direct updates from google and none of the added on bloat other phones are stricken with
Here's my plan. Since beat buy will allow you to return I think 3 phones - I pre ordered an evo 3d but am buying a nexus tomorrow. If i love the nexus, I'll cancel my evo order. If not, I'll still get the evo. If it ends up having an encrypted bootloader or i dont like it as much as the nexus I will probably return/sell/trade it for a nexus or wait for a gs2 announcement.
Tapa tapa tapa
For me, nexus. For a couple reasons, the first is Google updates ice cream sandwich is coming very sooon and rumor is it is bringing hardware acceleration goodness...miui has moved to the nexus s as the main device, and I love miui. Have you used super amoled yet? I love my evo but honestly I want something sleeker and thinner now. The battery life is amazing on the nexus

of the 2.. i will get the e3d..
nexus s .. is far out classed by phones coming out this summer.
now.. when the next nexus comes out... that might be a different situation. my upgrade will not be till Dec.. so, we will see.

Epic 4G broke, I have 2 options, need help!

Hey guys, my epic 4g broke recently (hardware issue) and Sprint has offered me 2 options. First, I can wait for the Epic to ship to the nearby store, which will take until Wednesday next week. Second, I can pick up an EVO 3D from them tomorrow morning.
I really like having a keyboard like on the 4g, and I really do like the OLED screen, but the EVO has a decent LCD screen with a nice resolution (960x540) and has a dual core processor. (3D too, I guess, but my guess is I'll only play around with the 3D features)
What would you guys do if you were in my situation?

Never had a 3d but had an evo 4g since launch. The lcd density is nice upgrade but the phone still weighs 170 grams while as ET4G IS only 130 grams and iphone 4s is 140g. And hardware on the ET4G is newer such as the exonos is blazing compared to qualcaom chipsets.

Get the EVO 3D, sell it, then you can buy another Epic 4G for about $150 and pocket the remainder for when your are upgrade eligible and use the money towards your next upgrade.
id take the epic again unless they let you pick a nexus. I went in after my 4th broken epic and they didnt so much as give me a chance to try and get a different handset, but im betting if they let you take an Evo 3d over an Epic they will let you take a nexus S.

No clue why anyone would buy the Epic touch, After what happened with this phone and its update/software issues, even if the epic touch is fast in hardware, i guarentee in 6 months when you are supposed to get your ICS update you will be regretting your purchase. Screw samsung. Only go with nexus.

Want a new phone early? Here's how!

http://www.sprintfeed.com/2012/02/sprint-to-offer-early-upgrade-buyout-program/
The article basically explains that if you have had your phone for longer than 9 months, you can "upgrade now" for a slightly higher price. For example, I will have had my Epic for 18 months as of March, meaning I will only have to pay $19 more than the original upgrade fee, and can get a new phone 4 months earlier than what I originally intended to do.
The deal only lasts until April 14 of this year, so if you're willing to spend an extra $20, you can get a new phone today (or next month, assuming you had your phone in September)!
I'm guessing they're trying to empty inventory of epic touch, photon, etc before the summer's new phones hit.

Well to be honest, this "upgrade now" idea doesn't really apply to us. It does, however, apply to people like my dad who was cursed with the Samsung Intercept, and knowing there's a way to upgrade 4 months earlier for only $20 more made him exhilarated.

I can see what you mean but this phone is better than the og evo and it has tons of options as well...I'm with iSaint. The gnex has google support and has pretty decent hardware specs. Besides its omap ... more openess and all newer versions of android are being built on this platform. But the evo has a faster cpu which is said to be faster or as fast as the quadcores. I'm still choosing the gnex and will love every minute of it until next year when I get another early upgrade .

really wish there was a version of the gnex with a hw keyboard.. then i'd be gladly forking over my money.. as it is, unless my epic dies unexpectedly, there won't be any motivation to switch phones just yet..
On a side note, I didn't know i was up for a renewal until i looked at the gnex pre-order, apparently I am.. good to know..
I know... I'm going to miss my hw keyboard SEVERLY but... that juicy 4.65 hd display should be sufficient for me =]. Ill get the s4 when that gets rumoured .

I think anyone who doesn't wait for the dust to settle and see what the Galaxy S III will be like may be having blue balls and gambling with their upgrade ;-) I'm sure the Evo LTE will be a fine phone but think about how awesome the GSIII LTE (aka Epic LTE?) could be, and Sprint's version might just have a keyboard too, and be as slim as the newest Droid.
I'm gonna wait until LTE gets deployed in my area, I believe it's slated for the fall so WiMax will do for me until then.

Just got my text message from Sprint this morning regarding this .... I have 1 line already eligible for upgrade , but I'm holding out 'til later this year when "better" phones should be released ( mythical beast with KB / Epic LTE ? )
I'd rather have the gnex and be the first to taste Jelly Bean before anyone else gets updated. Not to mention having a solid development community, as Nexus devices usually do. If I'm to wait for a device I'd be waiting on the next Nexus, forget everything else. Don't care what has the best hardware. I care what's got good enough hardware for me, works, has good software and gauranteed updates, and a good dev community.
