89 of 93 people found the following review helpful Smart choice in a dense smart phone market; great features, functionality, February 17, 2011 By  35-year Technology Consumer "8-tracks to 802.11" (Mid Atlantic, USA) - See all my reviews    This review is from: HTC EVO 4G Android Cell Phone for Sprint (Wireless Phone Accessory) Before addressing the hardware and functionality of this phone, let's address quickly the five-part equation that makes up your overall smart phone user experience: (1) the hardware...the phone itself (2) operating system software (3) installed applications (4) the network (overall, and where you happen to be using the phone at a particular time) (5) the service provider In some cases, there are serial dependencies on the factors above, as many phones are tied to specific operating systems or service providers. Or perhaps you spend a lot of time in an area without 4G service. Just remember that even if you make a great phone choice, deficiencies in the other areas can diminish your overall user experience. Don't move to a smart phone without some research into these choices. Which provider? Which mobile operating system? Who can offer me the best service, or the best combination of value and service?

HTC is definitely better, more stable, browsing is better, battery life is worse but the overall quality and the sturdiness of the phone in question is penultimate. Let me try to tell you why I am so enamored by this phone. 1. The browsing is excellent, the downloading is quick, the web pages load in seconds and even on 3G the phone is super fast, I have never switched on the 4G for more than an hour and feel it should only be done when you're downloading a very big file. You may wonder what the purpose of 4G is, so well, although the 4G function is there, this phone is faster than any 3G phones available on the network by a mile (Hero, Moment, Optimus S to name a few) So the browsing is excellent. 2. I used GPS once while trying to locate a bar a friend of mine was at in downtown. Anyone who's been to downtown manhattan knows what a headache directions are there but...

I've had it since it was released. I'm now 18 months into my phone and i'm just as happy with it as i was the day i picked it up. I'm coming up on my 2 yr upgrade with Sprint and i don't have any intention of upgrading. What would i upgrade to? The I-Phone doesn't have 4g. The software has been very stable and Sprint tends to update the EVO before other phones. My only complaint is not being able to remove some of the useless apps the come pre-installed on the phone. I've been able to do most everything from my phone when i'm not in my office. Best thing i ever did.

Customer Reviews

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Screen Protector 

I like to buy the best products out there, which normally means I buy the more expensive items. But come on, this is a piece of plastic to protect my iPhone 4 screen. I have only bought a screen protector once before, for my toddler's iTouch, and had bubbles all over the screen. So I thought these screen protectors were all garbage. But after getting a big scare by accidentally putting my iphone in my pocket with my car keys, and getting a very light scratch on my screen, I thought I'd give these screen protectors another try.

And again, I thought I'd try some of the cheapest at Amazon, because, well, it's just a piece of plastic. If I was wrong, I was only out a buck or so, and could then go and buy the expensive screen protectors. But this time, I researched around and read some blogs, and found out dust is the culprit for bubbles. Taking that advice, I followed the directions and was able to put the screen protectors on 2 iPhones bubble-free! Here's what I did:

1. I chose my desk as the place to do the application. I wiped it down with an all-purpose cleaner, then wiped it down with a damp wash-cloth. I also did this during the day, with bright sunlight coming into the room. Do not try this at night, I don't think it shows all the dust hitting the screen.
2. Turn off your iPhone. You want to make sure the screen stays black, it's much easier seeing dust.
3. I then used another damp wash-cloth (if you squeeze it and water comes out, it's too wet. It needs to be barely damp), and wiped down my iPhone, front and back.
4. Then I got the little piece of cloth that shipped with the screen protectors and wiped the screen down until it was as clean as I could get it.
5. The iPhone was laid down on the damp cloth so it wouldn't rock and slide as i was applying the screen protector.
6. Peel off "Side 1", and start by lining up the camera hole and the ear hole. Then slowly lay down the rest of the protector on the screen, making sure no bubbles form as you go. You will get some, but if you do it right, they will only be near the edges.
7. Once it's laid down, then take a fingernail and apply gentle pressure from the center of the screen towards the edge. Basically driving the bubble out from underneath the screen protector.
8. The last step, peel off "Side 2".
9. Done!

Should only take about 5-10 mins. But it's so worth it. I bought the matte version of these and it's a nice improvement.

So my initial assessment that screen protectors are garbage is wrong, my technique at applying the screen protectors was garbage. A little bit of homework on the Internet, dust control, and I got a quality result. I highly recommend these screen protectors from this seller. I'd buy them again!

5.0 out of 5 stars Undisputed champion of touch-screen tactile feedback

(REAL NAME   

This review is from: Invisible Gamepad for iPhone, Android, iPad and Tablets (Wireless Phone Accessory)

These stickers are to-date the best possible option I have found for tactile feedback on a touch screen. I play a lot of "hardcore" (high-difficulty) games such as twin-stick shooters and side-scrollers which a touch-screen really, really does not lend itself to well.

The package is a cardboard envelope containing a plastic sheet of *completely* clear stickers of varying sizes and shapes as well as a microfiber cleaning cloth. Once positioned on the screen they *do not slide*. They don't use adhesive, they work similarly to children window-stickers. You can take them off and reapply them or just leave them on since they're barely visible. The raised rings provide just enough tactile feedback so you can feel the controls without having to look. The touch sensitivity is excellent (though I haven't tried them on top of a screen protector).

Downsides: the rigid plastic will get bent eventually as you're apply/removing and the sticker will need to be replaced (this doesn't bother me because they're so cheap); due to the nature of the "buttons" you can't "feel around" for a button without accidentally "pressing" it.

For comparison:

Fling (tablet): game compatibility is very hit-and-miss as the radius is often too small or too large; suction cups fall off during play; doesn't always register the touch.

Fling mini: covers pretty much the entire screen; not at all translucent (as the photos suggest); form-factor only works for iPhone; suction cups fall off during play.

Thumbies: the button plastic covers a lot of screen and is not at all translucent; doesn't always register the button press; games almost never conform to one of the available button layouts. The dpad slides around; doesn't always register the touch; breaks easily when pulling off the screen.

Joystickers: adhesive weakens over time (does not use suction as implied ("micro-suction"??)); doesn't always register the button press.

Brick joystick (stick type): decent enough joystick but the suction cup slides around way too much.

Brick joystick (bend type): the best physical joystick available but it isn't as great for twin-stick shooters since it's range of motion is so free-form.

5.0 out of 5 stars Moto's best yet 

I ending up buying this phone from Verizon on the day of release, and went with the regular HD opposed to the Maxx for $100 more since it seems steep for a few extra hours of battery life, and I'm glad I did.

I'm on this phone constantly.. E-mail, text messaging, web browsing, pictures, and going through apps, and the battery life is even better than advertised (24 hours). So far over the past 5 days I've had this phone, this battery has lasted 30+ hours, and still was above 30% battery life when I put it back on the charger.

The look and feel of this thing is the next best thing. Its iphone'ish design looks great and the kevlar backing feels great in your hand. The aluminum trim around the phone is just the icing on the cake. I was considering the Galaxy s3, but after using that phone, I hated the way it looked, and feels. I fell in love with this phone the second I had it in my hand. Not to mention, the display is pretty nice as well. The display is equal quality compared to the s3, as well as brightness, which could be a little higher on both phones in my opinion.

ICS runs smooth on this thing, performance is solid, and the Smartactions feature is great as well. Being able to customize your phone settings based on location or time of day is a great way to improve the battery life even longer, and add convenience to your life. I have wifi set to automagically turn on when Im in my house, and turn off when I leave, as well as a Work setting, and a power saver setting to reduce screen brightness and app syncing to improve battery life once the device drops below 25%, which it only got that low the night I bought the phone since the battery was only 30% full out of the box.

Also, I would like to mention this phone DOES has a LED flashing indicator, which is something you wont notice by looking at the phone. The little bar underneath the Motorola logo at the top of the phone flashes, and it flashes different colors for different notifications. (Blue for Facebook, and Green for Texts) .. I'm not sure if this is customizable or not.

Anyways, the ONLY complaint I have about this phone, is that the USB charger port is at the bottom side of this phone, I wish it was at the top on the side. The SIM card and microSD card are in a sealed tray due to the phones water resistant design, so a tool is required to remove the card, which may be a inconvenience to those who frequently need access to the card for whatever reason.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great controller, bad software execution
 have had this controller for a day now. I am really pleased with the controller in the games. It works flawlessly with my games, and makes controlling the game far easier. I was concerned with all the reviews complaining about having to repurchase games they had already purchased. I do have this problem currently with Nova 3, I did not have it installed on my Tab so downloaded it again in hopes that it would be recognized. It was not, but I also had Riptide GP on my tablet already and that was recognized by the Moga app. This points to more of an individual app issue then a problem with the Moga app. I will give the developers (Gameloft, etc) and Moga to fix this before I consider this a major issue. I have noticed that when you go to buy the games through the Moga Pivot app it sends you to the developers website for purchase, not the Play store. This is the problem, because if it sent you the Play store the record of the app purchase would be there and could then update the Moga Pivot app accordingly. This again leads back to the developer of the game causing the issue, they should be driving the user to the Play store not their website.

Back to the controller, it works great, it is a bit front heavy with a phone in the clasp, but having my heavy Amaze 4G does not help. The fact that I can put a Note 2 in there when I get makes me extremely happy though. My 5 year old son picked up the controller and started playing Sonic was very excited and really enjoyed his play time with it.(He was very sad to see it go with me to the office this morning.) I would recommend this controller, with this caveat, give it some time for some of the bugs to be worked out. Being an early adopter of tech is not for everyone, as you can see by the reviews here.
