My friend said he's getting an Evo. I'll get him to report back. He's always critical of his phones.

How about a comparo infamous? And if you had to pick one
every survey that AT&T or apple that I do I always say I want 4G, cheaper plans like sprint, more droid phones like evo, and flash. |

FYI, engadget reported 2 problems with the phone. One was the glass detaching and another was touch dead spots.

the touch surface on the EVO and incredible arent as responsive when it isnt grounded.
ie. the phone is lying flat on a table, not in your hand. |
meh it is way easier to use the phone in your hand than on a table. They will have a fix for that soon.
|
the 69.99 plan is a single line plan for 450 mins, unlmtd text and data included, unlike the competitors who charge you $30 add ons, Sprint builds it into a package, So overall you pay less with Sprint than anywhere else unless u are going with a pre paid plan / service ...I too was on the SERO plan, $30 a month..Sprint will not allow you to add the Smart Phones on that plan whether you upgrade or buy the phone out right, a previous poster stated they just buy phone and add it on, trust me..that is not true, i was able to get the Instinct on 2 years ago, but things have changed, i been fighting with Sprint for days to get them to work with me on the SERO to help me adjust to " normal " plans ...after 30 or so calls and e-mails to corporate ..i settled with the $59.99 EDRP, plus a 20% discount and was able to get them to credit me the difference in cost in credits to lower my bill to $50 a month with the added $10 data plan or 4G service charge ..so not bad, $50 a month for two years, by then the pay as you go plans like Virgins $25 a month, 300 mins , unlimited text & data will have some nice android phones or maybe even the iphone..cant wait to get the EVO, should be in the mail anyday, Radio Shack has it at $199 ..so u dont pay the $299 like at Sprint and have to wait for the $100 mail in rebate ...had to settle things with Sprint with my plan before i could go phone shopping and they are sold out

thx for the compliments, just trying to help, also for those of you on Sprint with a contract running out, if you are not aware, there is a department at Sprint you can " bluff " or try to get them to retain ur service with called " account services or retention department " there main purpose is to retain you as a customer and can score some pretty good deals as far as a renewal or service plan that can save you money for staying with Sprint, always good to have a game plan when calling, such as why you want what you want, such as a better deal with another company, Sprint is really the best deal, but you can compare all options and bluff other competitor offers or options, for instance u can say i have been speaking with a rep at T-Mobile and has offered me such and such, and ask what are you willing to do to keep my service? keep in mind that this dept was better in the past at helping customers, sometimes you just need to call and call until you reach a agent who is willing to help, even e-mailing dan@sprint.com is a corporate e-mail if you have a legitimate beef, i felt i did , as i had a killer plan but was not able to add phones onto my great plan and was forced off it, keep ur cool, dont curse and continue the quest if need be, someone at Sprint will help you. sorry for the long story, just trying to help lol, and good luck
|
^Yeah most companies do that. ATT is smart with trying to keep it online so no room for negotiation. Plus my contract dates on my 3 lines are staggered so I'm less likely to cancel.
|
another great post...retentions FTW...
...and ATT is alil sneaky huh? |
Well it was my fault since I had gotten them at different times. However I think they got pushed back in time for the 4 pre-sale since ATT wants everyone to get a 4.

http://www.sprintusers.com/forum/sho...hlight=HTC+EVO http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Mobile-P...at190800050010 BTW, I am sorta awake right now... :tomato: |
I am not sure if I like it... when I did the 360 spin... it looks like an Oreo cookie missin' a half... IMVHO... but like many things, the actual item may be da bomb!
def makes it look even thinner! 360 spin link...:toocool: http://images.bestbuy.com/BestBuy_US...ml?sku=9955611 |
I got the Evo on June 4th and I havent had any of the problems listed... I did drop it on the second day I had it and put a nice big scratch on the corner :tomato:
I went from the HTC Touch Pro (POS winMO) to the Hero and now the Evo so ya I like HTC Phones haha. |
Evo 4G overclocked to 1.2GHz
Tweaked snapdragon! ... that's 30% faster... and its already fast (at least to me)... http://admin.androidcentral.com/evo-...rclocked-12ghz |
best review by far! PRE vs EVO... with two guys testing them...

My buddy just got this phone and I had a chance to play with it last week during our road trip.
This thing is HUGE! The screen is amazing, some of the best pictures I've seen taken by a phone, the oS is okay compared to the Pre. I find the pre simpler to use but maybe because I'm just a lot more used to it. I find it strange that HTC made such a Zack Morris phone in an environment where all phones are getting skinnier and slicker. I was kind of excited for this to be a potential upgrade from the Pre but now I will have to wait. I just don't think I want to haul a Netbook sized phone around with me everywhere I go. |

I just can't get over it. 4.3" screen is way too big. I'd have to sew on bigger pockets onto all my pants.

I think it's safe to say that Android has more customization features than iOS. I hope Android catches up on apps as I'll consider one next year.

my uncle was able to get an evo and after playing with it for the past week my fiance decided she wants one but i cant seem to find this phone anywhere. Even calling and asking the sales rep, they dont even know when they will be receiving the phone. Crazy on how long the waiting lists are. I wonder if HTC is doing this as a publicity stunt, it wouldnt surprise me if they are.
|
I really want this phone. Wish they'd have a release date for Canada. :bored:

Because nobody cares about the pre like they do the evo. It's serious competition to the iPhone. If the evo was on AT&T I might've gotten it instead
