so....

if it took about 7 months for the hero to become a "outdated" phone i take it the evo will be considered old by x-mas?

I dun think so. Eco is more high end and hero was very low end compared to other phones when it came out. N1 is still popular and even g1 is pretty popular

depends on what sprint releases next. i got to play with a epic and that lcd blows the evo out of the water. if it weren't for that touchwiz crap and lack of devs id buy one.

I have the epic its really nice but I might switch to the evo

maybe not from sprint, but better devices are just around the corner, i mean look at the desire HD, the Evo just came out, and the second gen snapdragon core with a 3x better GPU is already here...not to mention the Galaxy phones, with their hummingbird cores and super amoleds...

Id say the EVO goes EOL by q2/q3 2011 but there will still be plenty of development going on here for at least few years. I been seeing more EVOs around town lately Im wondering if there's a Walmart selling them cheap.
My upgrade is in March also I hope something phenomenal is out by then.

Honestly the Evo might be outdated sooner. Look at the N1 hardware vs. Evo hardware. I mean the processor + ram, not the 'camera'. It will only be a few months until dual core processors and parallel processed apps come through and make the Evo seem slow. For now, its a beast of a king though.

Most exciting phone at ces

I didn't follow CES as much as I wanted to so I'm wondering in your opinions what is the most exciting phone coming in 2011? I just saw specs for the atrix and I'm impressed. I hate at&t but when it cones out on March I might have to go with it. I didn't see where sprint was getting anything. Anybody jumping on the attic in March? Thanks for the responses.

sprint didnt really announce anything but there is a conference from Sprint at the begining of next month with another "industry first". so well see

Yea its a 1.2GHz triple core HTC Device running 2.4 and 2 1080 cameras that also works on sprints "industry first" 5 G network ......and YES u can F*ck iT.

Sprint is getting David Blaine at this Febuary event... David Blaine !!! Lol

They shoulda just pushed gingerbread to all n1 owners (which was the point of getting that phone in the first place.) And then got 2.4 out on the NS or whatever nexus it would've been if they would've waited. Perhaps a "Nexus Duo" or something since they didn't want a nexus 2

Do you really want that 2GB data cap? I guess it's okay if you don't use much data, but if you ever do use more than 2GB, be prepared to pay for it.

Yeah I know at&t sucks bad and I will prolly hate it. I just couldn't believe the specs when I saw them. I do use alot of data.

I wasn't aware that the numbers were this low. I would think that this would be something that Google would be concerned with because eventually this could hurt the growth of Android. Marketing is a powerful thing and if Apple and Microsoft are in some way able to get into the heads of the masses. You know how powerful marketing can be even when it's just trying to spread FUD. The company that I work for has BB as the "corporate standard" but because we purchased several other companies in the past year that standard has been loosened a bit because of the high number of iPhone users at the other company. There are only two of us in the IT Department that have Android and with what I see going on I still don't feel comfortable pushing Android. The first time there was an issue I know that my CIO would use it as the reason why we shouldn't use Android and that would be the end of that.

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.

If I had a full upgrade I'd consider it, otherwise I'll be rocking my Epic until next summer.

I don't know about you guys, but that phone looks pretty sexy.
At least sexier than my Epic..

I'm thinking about it but my Epic + physical keyboard + Syndicate Frozen 1.2 with keyboard fix is sooo difficult to walk away from. And if a GB 2.3 were to get tossed into Mystery's ACS freezer it will be even harder to ditch the Epic

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" ?

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
http://nena.se/nenamark/view?version=2&device_id=593
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.

Don't count us out yet for ics.

"After reviewing various factors such as system requirements, platform
limitations, and partner-related issues, we will consider upgrading Galaxy devices
to Ice Cream Sandwich. Specific upgrade plans will be communicated separately.
Samsung will stay committed to responsibility for its customers as much as
possible."
That was in response to the nexus s-comparable devices getting ics question.

You're completely right, just we don't use many things the same way unfortunately. But it's a positive nonetheless.

Its weird that we haven't been EOL yet. But I think I see why, a lot of my friends have been picking up the Epic for the cheap $99. Although one friend got the Stratosphere, which I'm jealous of, that phone is nice.

EVO was easily replaceable as there are plenty of high end slate styled phones on Sprint. Epic on the other hand fills a niche. Honestly, I've noticed a lot of Epic users out in the wild lately. I used to never see anyone else with my phone and now it's been every place I go I seem to see another person with an Epic. Even at a year and a half old, it holds it own and even bests a lot of the newer mid-range phones out there.

To the novice consumer the Epic is the cheaper keyboarded style galaxy s2. The Og Epic never got much advertisement, but since the Epic Touch has a lot of people head in to check it out, see the Og Epic, are like "oh cool it's the same phone with a keyboard and cheaper" and bam, it becomes more popular then when it was released.

I am sort of in the same boat. In spite of SERO, opening a line in a family VZW account would cost about the same or less and I never go beyond 3GB of data use (that with double data promotion). Went to VZW store, played with the Nexus, but despite being well aware of specs, updates, ICS etc just did not feel that it was that much better than what I already have. Also, realized that I will really miss my KB, and the dev community is still in its infancy for Nexus @XDA.

gotta agree with kenny on ^^^ this ^^^ ... prolly better 2 just wait

A lot of my friends had gotten Epics and I was the sore thumb who went out and got an Evo Shift back last April. That phone went kaput on me and I decided to hop on the epic-wagon after using other ones first hand. I won't ever get a non keyboard phone, and the epic is the best of its class...Its the ONLY one of its class now. Sprint has no plans to release any other keyboard phones yet, which is highly disappointing. We might see one when LTE comes around, but...in the mean time, I'm happy that the Epic has such an awesome team of devs here (Things over in the evo shift forum really started to die!).
Long story short: Long live the epic.

I think the possibility of us getting ics is pretty good actually. It used to seem out of reach but now the hyped nexus update has been halted and Sammy is posting new rdf files, not to mention the increasing amount of epic buyers lately. If you ask me, I think the probability of us getting ics is higher than many think. Our phone will easily support it.

It's been a fun 2 years...

What can I say, this phone is a BEAST! I didn't think I would like TouchWiz but I do now. Going to miss the Sense UI (port maybe, hmmm)
I've already rooted the phone and it was hella easy! Haven't tried any ROMs yet (being picky) but I will soon enough. I got CWM and I'm missing drob's "superwipe" I gotta get him to show me how I could implement it to the SG3.
I'll still be coming around here and check out the development plus you guys are the best, hands down. Cool people and easy going. I could already feel the tensions and egos at the SG3 forums and I've only posted once so far...
Maybe I'll see some of you sooner than later at the other forum. Hit me up then...
Good luck to everything...

GN2 is Quad core. Evo LTE is not. Droid DNA is quad core but Verizon.
Don't know how I feel about HTC anymore. GN2 was really nice to play with at the store.

I am leaning toward the GN2 as well or even the GS3, but the quad core is the bigest selling point.

Definitely not obsolete yet, but some of the new phones just blow it out of the water... The Shift can run JB which is the newest version of Android so nobody can say its obsolete til it can't handle the latest version of Android, lack of dev support is a little different story... But there still are a few of us trying to keep you guys supplied with new ROMs. When my contract is up in June I am getting a QuadCore with LTE even if I have to go with Verizon. I have had my eye on the Optimus G. Quad Core and a 13MP camera? Yes please. The Droid DNA's specs are amazing too. I don't see HTC coming out with something to match either one in the next 6 months but I'm definitely not going with Samsuck. If there is nothing from HTC worth getting its gonna be LG or Motorola. Ok rant done.

Is anyone staying with the HTC Evo Shift? Or is this phone too obsolete?

Don't know if you've notice all the Roms that are coming out on a weekly basis for the shift, pretty obvious this phone is still going strong.
I may have moved on to a new phone but my shift is still in use for other purposes.
