Should have kept the One X name, association with the original Evo 4G is not necessarily a good thing.
Hmmm peoples problems with the One XL
No microsd card (Evo 4G LTE has it)
Bigger battery (Evo 4G LTE has it)
no camera button (Evo 4G LTE has it)
Hmmm anyone thinking of getting a One XL in the states might have to look elsewhere

Association with the original isn't a good thing???? Why isn't it?
I think the phone looks great, especially since they added a micro-sd card slot and a bigger battery!

I love my Evo 4G and My contract is up for renewal this october, I plan on rocking this bad boy.
Love it or hate it the Evo 4G is one of those devices like the G1, The Droid and the Galaxy S that have made a significant impact on where android is today. I'mm glad to see the Evo name continue
i honestly cannot wait any longer for this!
Am really happy about this phone. if sgs3 takes too long then am going with this. Also happy they have something better than apple, the camera is a killer, and i miss sense.
im happy about this device. I love how they reverted back to the old style of the OG evo yet kept the new one series look to. They merge together perfectly. And the specs are awesome too

Ohhh i'm willing to bet this will get CM9 as it seems to be a major device
Keeping the Evo line with Sprint seems to be a great idea. I like the kick stand. Looks bold!
Preorders start May 7, any guesses on how long after that before its released?
The back is the only thing bothering me with this refresh of the Evo line. I hope this renews my faith with the Evo line I was a huge fan of the 4g I had a 32g sd that was stocked with ROMS and apps for it I had never seen a phone with such a development following like the Evo 4g then came the 3D and that phone pissed me off I had it replaced 5 times and I'm still getting intermittent problems with the screen, audio issues but I'm done with continuing to go back and forth having a tech look at phone to only replace with a refurbished POS. let's hope this bring us back to Glory days of the original Evo 4g.

The updated post on Engadget quotes HTC as saying that it was a prototype when they were thinking of putting a 3D camera in the One X. They decided not to, in the end.
Upgrade in June AND August!!!! 2 of my 3 lines will have this phone!

The hero was great but the processor is just not fast enough to keep up with android OS the way it should be run. I'm so happy! I knew sprint had something up there sleeves after the disaster at CES (only dropping the shift)
Well, they better not disappoint!! (again).. Im really looking forward to this.
I am in exactly the same boat as all of you. I've been up for an upgrade since October.
BTW... what are you guys planning to do about your upgrade if this phone is released in June?
Can you chime in on my thread about an upgrade at this link?

I'm pumped and I hope HTC does the EVO 3D, not LG. I did read about Qualcomm's new dual core chip and its supposed to blow away the Tegra 2 in performance and battery life. If LG does do the EVO 3D, then I'm going with Nexus S.

Well, I wonder if Sprint will make a special request of Samsung, like they did with the Epic, and have a Nexus S with a external storage. I would consider one, then. You know as there new dev unit, google and the devs here will be blowing that thing up. I just wish it wasn't a Samsung.

I qualified for upgrade since 11/1/10 and im elegible was wondering if after april 1st I'll keep my elegibility or will start from 0 .
yeah nexus s 4g NEEDS a memory card slot
If its the LG 3D phone then I think its powered by TI's OMAP4 SoC which from what I understand about it, blows pretty much everything out of the water, and uses significantly less power than other options.
I was an Nexus-One owner, loved the phone, but hated T-Mobile, too many dropped calls, and very poor building penetration around Chicago, inside skyscrapers and Basements T-Mobile drops dead. So I made the switch to Sprint and picked up the EVO 4G the first week it came out, and loved it. Never drop a call, and this phone works great in my Basement office, and inside buildings, where my two previous T-Mobile phones never worked ( Blackberry 9700 + Nexus-One )
But I got tired of the brick size feeling of the EVO, and poor battery life, even though I am rooted with custom ROM that helps double my battery life, it is pretty still bad. So I got the itch for the Nexus-S when it first came out, I said F. it, going back to T-Mobile to get this Nexus-S. I just LOVED the Nexus-S, great light featherweight, very compact and fits in pocket easily, the screen tech is beautiful, and 2.3 Gingerbread was great. It was by far my fav phone.
But after two weeks I returned it and came running back to Sprint and my EVO. It was not the fault of the Nexus-S, but the same T-Mobile issues I had 6 months ago with my Nexus-One and Blackberry, dropped calls, and **** connection when inside Basement office or deep inside tall buildings. For some reason Sprint is much better around Chicago if your in tall buildings.
So I think Sprint bringing the Nexus-S will be great, I will for sure get it. And it is good overall for the "Nexus" brand, gives it more exposure, and more accessories and stuff will be made for it. I think it would be cool if the "Nexus" brand just stayed with the non iPhone carriers like T-Mobile and Sprint. They say the Nexus is Google's version of the iPhone. So lets see the Nexus-3.0 come out at Christmas on both T-Mobile and Sprint only, and be the baddest ass phone ever created, and market the **** out of it to destroy the iPhone5

You will start from zero unless you have an individual plan that costs $89.99 or more a month, family plan that is $179.99, or been with Sprint for at least 10 years.

I was going to get my wife a Hero before her discount expired, but when I went to the Sprint site tonight the Hero was no longer listed. I know I was there a week ago and it was there for $49.
I guess they finally ran out of stock. Which means this area might be moved again. Favorite it now!

If Hero 2.0 had a dual core processor in it, how much would you like it then?
Why don't company's realize people like getting the 2nd 3rd and 4th version of things. Look at every apple product. Revise your product, add a number to it... How hard is this? By doing this you get closer and closer to a perfect device rather then creating new dislikes and problems.
I Agree with you term117. Rather than making new devices HTC should release the v2.0 of our Hero.
I was at a Sprint store about a week or two ago and they actually had one booted up and running on display, which is funny since they aren't supporting it with updates anymore... am I right? So for $50 you can purchase yourself something that the manufacturer and carrier deem outdated and not worthy of upgraded firmware.

You have to have something that people actually "like" first... which I think most people do like their Heros, and then you have to successfully make the change or leap without screwing it up. Personally I think the Hero should have less buttons. Just the four basic Android buttons would suffice, like the LG Optimus S.

Not sure. I could care less about the 4G part, 3g and WiFi work just fine for me. Have to pay the extra $10 no matter what phone I get anyway (sucks, but what can you do) I have liked this phone ever since the T-Mobile one was released. I was about to switch from Sprint due to the lack of new phones until this and the EVO 3d were announced. EVO 3D not due out till summer but if the size of the phone remains the same, I would not be interested in the new EVO. Like talking on a brick. Don't flame me for that. I know all the specs on the new EVO. It is impressive but size does matter.

Yeah, but it just has a 1ghz processor and the 5mp camera on back is fine, but a VGA in front. It is a nice looking phone, it is like a Hero dressed in all black. I would just think would have went a little higher than the 1ghz processor and they should have at least put a 1.3 mp camera in front. Maybe I am just being too picky. I am alomst due for a new phone and the EVO 3d looks nice, except for the size dealy. I agree that Sprint is lacking in telephone department and I too have thought of just going to another provider, but then I lose my ARAMARK 18% discount.

I have to agree! Dual-core then I thought don't really use my phone in away that warrants one. Nexus 4G leading followed closely by the Shift(I believe they are getting them OC'ed to bout 1.5ghz.) just my Opinion
EVO 3D for me. I liked my Hero, but the first one had jogball problems in 3 weeks, the USB port went out in the 4th week and I replaced it with one day to spare on the 30 day exchange. I only got it because I wasn't going to pay the then 4G "tax" but now since I have to pay anyway, I'm going for it.
I have always been one of those people who buys a new phone ever few months, I just never found that phone that did what I wanted to it to do How I wanted it to do it. Well Ive had my EVO since launch and have no plans on retiring it (even though the phone itself is being retired). It just does everything I need it to, takes good pictures (some require editing but what the hell) Works beautifully as my GPS with the Seidio car dock. Plays games (although I don't play games often) Oh..And it makes calls too.
So what kind of phone features would make you ditch your evo?
A new LTE phone for sprint
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
I dont know..maybe a Nexus Prime.
I just came from a Samsung Epic and I gotta say I miss they keyboard, but the Evo's huge screen pretty much makes up for that along with the HTC Sense keyboard which is definitely the best soft keyboard I've used as well as Swype. Also the Super AMOLED screen was really nice too.
So for something I'd trade it would probably be the Samsung Galaxy S II whenever it comes to Sprint lol it has a 1.2 ghz processor, 4.3 inch Super AMOLED+ screen, I believe an 8mp camera if not 5 mp (the Epic took some great pictures so I'd expect these to be great as well), and also it being thinner which is always good for me.
I've got four months until I am eligible for an upgrade so it's too soon to tell. If it's available when the time comes, probably an iPhone. If not, it'll probably be whatever the flavor of the week Android phone is when my upgrade time comes.
The only phone I'm interested in is the Galaxy S II. if it has a keyboard...heads WILL roll.

Something htc in 2012. Like the option of sense and aosp
My upgrade just opened up today. I could rush to the store and get a Evo 3D or Photon 4G...but I'm waiting for the Galaxy S II which I guess is supposed to be called the Within. Like I've been drooling over this phone since it was announced. The Evo 3D did not impress me and I felt like it wasn't much of an upgrade over the OG Evo, and while the Photon is a very nice phone Blur is a deal breaker and I've heard the Pentile display isn't the greatest. The GSII just has everything...best display on the market, super thin, fastest processor on the market. And I like how it has a lot more onboard storage than the Evo does (things that would normally be on the SDcard will load faster, and my onboard storage on my Evo gets really tight with some of these massive Sense roms).
It better be released within August. While it just went through the FCC for certification for Sprint, Europe has had it for months. I am getting tired of waiting. Reason I am not waiting till next year for an LTE phone is because I doubt Sprint will even have an LTE network up and running next year. And if they do, it won't be until around this time or later in the year, and by that time I'll have another upgrade open.
Id get a Iphone...

I've got the photon (had it for about 6 weeks) and can say that it's a great phone. Runs smooth as butter. The only issue i've had was some overheating, but that was my fault and not a hardware or OS issue.
If I had the option of switching, I would turn it down and stay with the photon.
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
I'm leaning more toward the Photon but, the Epic is close.
The manager told me that the Photon is better suited for the network expansion Sprint is planning on.
I've had the photon and now epic touch 4g, and they are both great phones on their own respect.
The photon has better cell reception than the epic and has great call quality. The epic is ok, just not photon quality. If you do alot of multitasking and web browsing the epic is blazing fast and you won't experience no lag whatsoever. The photon is a great phone but when multitasking it became a little laggy, but not a deal breaker. As far as screen resolution, imo the epic edges out the photon. Even though the photon has better resolution the epic just looks better. I don't know how this was achieved but the super amoled+ is nice.
Build quality the photon was nice and felt good in hand. the epic is nice and I really like the slim proflle. It is a huge screen but I like it, since I have big hands its not hard to handle. Either way both phones are great and won't be disappointed with which one you decide go with.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Epic Touch is a monster phone. I've become attached to Samsung since the original Epic 4G due to the Super Amoled screen. You just can't get enough of it.
Still haven't made up my mind on which one to get. Why does it have to be so difficult!
If you want android, it's the (possible) Nexus Prime.
But I'm lusting after the HTC Arrive. I had one for a week and I loved it.
Get the best of the best. Epic 4G Touch or the iPhone 4s.
I'm in the same boat as you.
The key differences are:
Photon has a better radio and has a gsm radio as well
Photon's built is heavier in a good way
Photon has pentile display which causes pixalated effect.
Epic has a better SoC including graphics and Cpu
ram is the same i don't know about nand though. Epic will prolly have a better dev community though but the photon has an alpha of cyanogen's out.
Nexus s is still a solid phone but if getting a pure google experience wait a month for the nexus prime announcement. (maybe the price of the current phone will drop a bit?)
Well, we didn't go with Sprint. Said they would give me 5 lines if we faxed some paperwork to them. Did that and, the manager at Sprint corporate took 5 line offer away.
Said I could only have 3 lines right now and add 2 more in a year.
Went to Verizon and got 5 lines no problem. I can tell you Verizon 4g is no joke.

you probably no longer qualified after they reviewed the paper work,i like when people leave things out but anyway, back to the topic at hand, go with the photon, i work at sprint, and messed with all 3 phones, the photon has the best radios, signal, battery life, right out the box!!! a lot of people say there's no development, but think of it this way, if the phone was perfect out of the box, why would there be development??? lol, but i digress, sprint offers the best plans with NO data caps OR speed restriction, just one fee, and your in the world of unlimited!!!!!

I have had the Evo 4g since launch, and it has been an amazing phone. I have loved it even more since I rooted it and every new rom I try. But my girlfriend seems to be in love with the note, and I have to admit, that big a$$ screen is kind of nice. I'm just not sure that I would put it to its fullest use for very long, liek using the stylus and stuff. And by the looks fo the forums for the Note, there are only a couple roms for it. Not saying I need to have as many roms available as I have had with my 4g, but it would be a plus.
I guess I am wondering if I should consider the note, or if the galaxy s3 might fit the bill better. Or should I stick with sprint and grab and Evo LTE?
I'm not asking you to make up my mind for me, I need to play with the phones and do that myself. Just wondering if anybody has any opinions or advice?

This is a good point. Why not stick with that HTC goodness? lol
Seriously, though, I do admit that the Note is impressive, both in size and performance. While not too much more impressive than the rest of the Galaxy SII series (especially the Skyrocket), the screen size is instantly what gets people's attention. I've tested the Note, and I do like its appearance and style...but damn, that One X is sexy
I don't know, it's up to you on this one. The Note isn't too much more expensive than the One X, and Samsung's UI is easy to get used to. You get a nice phone either way.
HTC EVO 4G LTE pretty much is the one x + the SD card,kick stand and removeable battery haha..the note..ehhh,I'd just get the s3 for sprint...can't mess with unlimited data plans..perfect for root + free wifi tether/hot spot....wireless network speeds don't really effect me,as along as I can make a phone call b do basic browsing...there's usually a wifi connection for downloads n updates nowadays

I wanted something different. Nothign against HTC, I loved my evo. And truth be told I may prefer sense to touchwiz. But we, my girlfriend and I picked up a couple notes. The screen size is amazing, no complaints there. Battery life the past couple days has been in the 10-12 hour range, which seems a little low to me since it was with less then moderate use. But then again I am comparing to my rooted evo running decks reloaded and mason SBC which would last forever, lol.
I was hoping to be more wowed by the note like I was when I got my evo. But I think the jump from a blackberry curve to the evo was a bit more of a wow move then what moving fromt he evo to the note is. The note is a great phone, and my girlfriend loves it. I need to really get my hands dirty with it and see what it can do, but I am keeping my options open.

That's expected; jumping from one OS to the other is way different than just switching phone manufacturers. Android to Android isn't that amazing; Android to iOS (or, preferably the other way around ) is.
Either way, seems you're warming up to your phone nicely. Always good to hear that. If you stick with it, great. If not, I would recommend the One X should this phone disappoint down the road. You have some time to test drive it, so get what you can out of it before making that final decision.

I'm not asking you to make up my mind for me, I need to play with the phones and do that myself. Just wondering if anybody has any opinions or advice?

I would make the decision based on; what 3G speeds you get now, if where you live will get Sprint's LTE soon, and if you already have Wimax coverage.
So I guess I'm saying it kind of depends.

I am in columbus OH, I have 4G on both att and sprint and i imagine ATT and sprint will both have LTE here by the end of the year.
I haven't read up much on the HTC One X or the Samsung Galaxy SIII, but one thing iI loved about the evo was how easy it was to root/flash and not brickbrick the thing. Looking at the note forums, I see a lot of posts about bricked phones. Granted I haven't read all the details, but it seems rooting/flashing is less safe on the note, which kind of sucks. Are the One X or SIII any easier to root/flash?
Just realized I was viewing the international note forums. The art note forums seem a little more user friendly

Well, if I knew for sure about LTE coming to my area within a year on Sprint, I would stay with Sprint. Personally I would get a Wimax device OFF contact (Epic Touch is Sprint's best Wimax device), and wait til the end of the year to see if LTE will actually come. Then make my decision. If you are completely done with Sprint though, just jump ship now. No reason to wait.
