HTC EVO ONE for Sprint to launch in June with large display and battery

no, it's definitely $20. even if it's changed i got it at $20.

my family travels all over the country and Verizon's service is definitely better and works better for us overall. also Sprint has ALWAYS had terrible customer service. Sprint was actually the last carrier we were on before getting Verizon. we haven't looked back.

Yes you are grand fathered but he is not. I have been from NY to Puerto Rico. and I have driven from Massachusetts to Florida with Sprint, and maintained Signal all the way down with out a miss in service.Sprint will meet or exceed Verizon by the end of 2013, and have coverage in most major market s by October for the iPhone launch. By all means leave now before it gets good and then wish you had stayed. The grass always is greener else where until you get there. Verizon is not the largest carrier because of growth, its because they cannibalized the competition. Don't be swayed by grand fathered Verizon lovers. Wait to see whats going to happen. You have invested in unlimited for a reason don't kill your investment before the fruits of service come to bare.

there you go again thinking that Sprint will just magically pick up the pace so much that they'll catch up to Verizon even going as hard as they are. xD
ultimately if you want better service it's definitely at Verizon but you're going to have to pay for it and if you want to keep your Unlimited Data it'll just mean that you won't have the best service. i probably wouldn't switch but if you're certain you need that better service you will certainly find it at Verizon.

Who's to say that they won't according to the map of coverage they may. You don't know that they won't for sure, and can only say in my opinion they won't. I can say that their coverage map suggest that they will close the gap. Ultimately its wait and see or bail....your choice. For me to join Verizon I have to pay almost 200 more for phones, and to get unlimited I must pay about 180.00 a month. This is for unlimited text calling and data.

Service for me was spotty towards the end of last year and coverage is back to where it was and so are speeds. I drove from NYC to help a friend move to Florida last year and had great service every inch of my trip Down I95. Network Vision will extend in NYC to way upstate NY by June and other secondary markets by October.

Kill the hate....you like Verizon great I have nothing against it. Being in business for 25 years I can tell you if it ain't broke stick with what works. My territory is NYC, Long Island, New Jersey, Staten Island, and Connecticut and Sprint worked for me all the way to Massachusetts. I had service at a Marriott in Massachusetts with Sprint where my adversaries did not with Verizon. Do what you feel is right for you! If coverage is coming to your areas wait and see.

Stale indeed.

That's how Sprint does it, get a good phone and rest on its laurels for two years. It's not as bad as T-Mo's recent lineup though, in my opinion.

24. KingKurogiii posted on 28 Mar 2012, 22:40 0

yeah, i'm not sure if what Sprint does is really right or really wrong but they definitely need to stop becoming so out-classed in the long term. it may be that they didn't think it would be good to push WiMax devices any longer so they may pick up the pace a little more when they start flipping LTE switches. definitely agree about T-Mo's line-up though. i hate having to suggest the Galaxy S II to people on T-Mo being that it's their best handset while knowing there is such, such better phones elsewhere. IMO they need a good, high-end Motorola. the Defy was a good phone for them. i have a friend that still loves his.

Especially when the T-Mo GSII has an S3 instead of an Exynos...

oh Miz, Miz, Miz...you must be feeling pretty gutsy to troll on the King this evening. i don't even remember the last time you tried that. xD

let me respond to your question with another question. why would it not be? an improvement is an improvement. you're gonna have to do better than that guy. ;P

29. Yummy posted on 28 Mar 2012, 23:24 0

Well, I think you should give them some time, and see if they bring anything new to the table.

28. KingKurogiii posted on 28 Mar 2012, 22:54 0

i don't see why not. Samsung has never exhibited that kind of stinginess. the Droid Incredible launched with a Super AMOLED display before Samsung could get out of the door with their Galaxy S series which have matching screens and just recently their Super AMOLED Advanced variant actually debuted on the Droid Razr.

32. Commentator posted on 28 Mar 2012, 23:48 1

Unless I'm mistaken, the Incredible used a regular AMOLED screen (I'm just going by what it says in PA's review of it.) It is true, though, that the Razr, PadFone, and One S will all use a qHD SAMOLED screen before any Samsung device (that I'm aware of) does.

33. KingKurogiii posted on 29 Mar 2012, 00:22 0

the Incredible does actually use one of the SAMOLED variety. that's why HTC switched over to a traditional LCD one after the delays Samsung was having manufacturing them for it. their prerogative was to the Galaxy S line.

My guess is the GS3 will launch around the same time if not sooner

55. EclipseGSX posted on 29 Mar 2012, 10:35 0

HTC doesn't really do sequels except for the Touch and Incredible series so dont expect an EVO 2

67. bayusuputra posted on 29 Mar 2012, 14:09 1

so if you are forced to choose between iOS and Android devices, both without expansion slot and removable battery, you still choose the one with lesser features?

what makes a good ecosystem anyway?

if i were force, i will still choose android that doesn't have expansion slot and removable battery.. at least i am not too dictated.. just my opinion..

69. phoenixpr posted on 29 Mar 2012, 14:39 1

I only LOVE LOVE my Android because of the removable battery and expansion slot. Nothing really compare the the great Apple ecosystem. Android is OK comfortable for me if I continue. Like I said if these are my only option, then it's a no brainier. I have to be honest, I am praying I don't have to go onto an iCrap iPhone as long as the new Android aren't like the iCrap iPhone. with the above mention issue...

68. rallyguy posted on 29 Mar 2012, 14:21 3

So far the indication is that it WILL have a micro sd card slot.

I wonder if the 2650 mah battery is enough though. I much prefer removable battery. I also carry a spare battery and know that my phone will always work while walking around.

70. phoenixpr posted on 29 Mar 2012, 14:43 1

I agree, walking around, not like my iPhone iCrap looking for that outlet all over the city like headless chicken. I like the extra battery in my pocket, way way smaller if I had to carry my cell plug. LOL! I mean really, what else are they going to make me carry.
