Sprint releases videos of EVO 4G in action
Sprint released a couple of videos that show the HTC EVO 4G at work. YouTube HQ is demonstrated and the quality of the picture is fantastic over the phone's 4.3 inch capacitive display. Another app that was displayed was Google Googles, which comes pre-loaded on the handset as part of Android 2.1. The visual search engine uses the EVO 4G's 8MP camera and scans an image to come back with search results. In the demonstration, Sprint's 4G network flexes its muscles a bit and you can see how quickly the information came back to the user. Speaking about speed, the carrier shows off web browsing on the phone, including the Pinch-To-Zoom function, and Flash support. The pages render exactly as they do on your desktop computer. Other featured apps include the Layar Augmented Reality browser. Take a look at the videos and we are sure that you will start to have those strange feelings that you had the first time you saw the iPhone or the HTC HD2 in action. Your mind will turn to mush and drool will come from the corner of your mouth. Every waking moment will be consumed with getting your own unit. Or maybe not. Either way, you have to admit that the EVO 4G is an amazing specimen.

@herbiederb, because it's coming in two different colors. You get the white one and I get the black one.

What's funny is on any google device currently you can put it in HQ mode. The only thing that changes is it identifies it automatically. Take any Android phone on youtube. Hit your menu key, Hit more. Hit HQ. It will look the same. What's funny is it actually looks best on Nexus 1 and Close second on Moto Droid, cause it has the same resolution as the EVO, but it's on a smaller screens.

I have the original samsung instinct and i can play youtube hq videos, of course screen is small and video is smaller but usually not many hiccups or artifacting.

Well based on the phone you can get better quality of the HD exp a 1080p tv vs a 760 p tv. But i did enjoy the fact that sprint played a crapy dragon ball Z cartoon with horrible picture in the first place up against a beautiful pictured film of spider man.

i think with sprint's recent no risk trial period i am going to carry the phone around for a couple weeks just to play with it. i'm not out of contract and dont want to leave tmo, but i still want to see what its like since i live in sprint's 4g coverage

4G is a game changer. The EVO 4G, not so much. Is the phone cool? Yes. Drewl Worthy? No.

You must be talking about the next gen iphone? I wish more would have replied to the comment instead of voting it down.

29. E.N. posted on 02 Apr 2010, 17:36

By 4G I meant 4G speeds and not the iPhone 4G. I wish more people replied also instead of just voting. I guess they couldn't find anything to say. But it's true. There's nothing really special about the EVO 4G except for the 4G part. And the camera I guess
