Is there a True Evo 4G successor coming soon?

[WifiMaxed]

I have been reading about the HTC's 1.5ghz quad core "Edge" which would make a worthy successor to EVO4G. I keep running across HTC's 2.5ghz quad core code named "Zeta" Does anyone know anything about this HTC device? I have read that both the "Edge" and "Zeta" are going to be at MWC 2012. MWC can't come soon enough!

I guess I answered my own question. I have to say this is freakin pretty awesome. I guess either 1 of these devices would make a great EVO2. enjoy the article.

I like my EVO..I really do. However..after it being rooted incorrectly, not by me..I was hospitalized at the time, my friends grandson did it..never again. I wound up having a friend who works at our local Sprint store do it for me, while he was at work. It worked way better than it had ever worked even when it was new. Now, after 2 or 3 months and several drops later,I find myself pondering what next? So far the Samsung Galaxy S II Epic Touch is a strong contender, maybe even the newer Samsung S II + or whatever its sobriquet is. Either one would be a suitable replacement to my EVO.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0" tablet PC, great little tablet, and is made by Samsung, as is better than half the electronics in my house. Maybe the Galaxy S II or the S II + might turn out to be the biggest POS ever made by Samsung..but I seriously doubt it. It makes no difference to me weather it the current Galaxy S II or the next newer version, which ever one I can afford when I am able to upgrade the 1st of May. My bet is that either one would be a good replacement for the EVO.

welcome to the forums!!!!!!!!!
well by then the galaxy nexus will be out for sprint. and this phone looks awesome. i just took my upgrade for the evo 3d and i love the phone. but the specs for the galaxy nexus is pretty amazing. plus it has lte!!!!!

Is the Galaxy Nexus going to be the next "big thing" for Sprint? I remember a few months before he EVO was released (and therefore afterwards), it was Sprint's flagship phone. I have an upgrade available April 1st.

IMO the dual-core Snapdragon Krait chip thats supposed to be in the Sprint version seems much more impressive than NVIDIA's Tegra 3. The Tegra 3 will probably have slightly better battery life and probably scales better, but there are almost no applications that are properly optimized dual-core chips yet. Though to be perfectly honest I may just hang on to my Evo 4G until I start hearing real news of Adreno 3xx. Just knowing that its in the works makes me hesitant to get too excited about the HTC One Series on phones

"non-removal battery"

That sucks!

 

[Lord Vader]

I agree. In fact, that might be a deal-breaker for me. I currently use the 3500mAh high capacity battery in my EVO. Moreover, I have a couple extras to swap out when I'm not able to recharge my phone. This 2650 mAh battery is almost 1/3 smaller than the current maximum capacity one I use, which means it's likely to run down more quickly, and since I can't swap it out--I'd be forced to plug it in somewhere--I'm effectively without the use of the phone during the time it's charging.

Who's the "genius" who thought of this? Some iPhone wannabe???

My guess is that it's a necessity resulting from implementing the kickstand. I assume the kickstand will not be designed poorly like the Evo 4G, but I still expect that it will tuck into a recess on the back of the phone. If this is the case, AND they are planning on sticking a larger battery in there, AND making it thinner, then I might expect that the battery shape may need to be unique or implemented in some way that will not allow for wasted plastic on structuring a durable battery compartment to allow for ease of replacement.

Granted, I would also still prefer the replaceable battery, but I value the kickstand more though.

 

[Lord Vader]

Considering I don't use the kickstand that much, its value to me is nowhere near the value of a removable battery.

 

[dan330]

also.. i am in the opinion that non-oem batteries do not perform as well as the OEM designed batteries..

so a 2650 OEM battery might do just as good or better than 3500 non-oem.

then you add in the better power efficient CPU and maybe a few other new tech designs to help save power consumption...

maybe this 2650 kwh phone will last a really long time.. and surprise us all.


i did say "maybe" !!!!

 

[Lord Vader]

My Seideo 3500mAh batteries are the best maximum capacity batteries out there and perform just as well as the original, relatively speaking.

 

[gonowhere]

Proof is in the pudding, I'll wait to see what "actually" comes out and how it performs before stating something is a deal breaker before its even out or tested.

Just FYI...I have an Extended Battery from Sprint that I bought at the time I got my HTC EVO phone and I love the Extended Battery.

This is the first phone of the "one" series that really impresses me. It has a decent sized battery and when you consider that it will have a more efficient CPU it may run for quite awhile.
With the newest 4.67 tons and my 2600 battery I can have 2 gmail accounts, gtalk, latitudes, a yahoo account all syncing throughout the day and still play 7 1/2 hours of Pandora with 30 minutes of phone calls.
I just hope that it is possible to have the battery replaced if its old.

Looks like EVO4G lovers (me included there) will get its next evolution in the HTC One.
It pretty much stays true in spirit to what the original EVO4G was but with updated internals.

Some will say the EVO3D was the successor to the 4G but I never felt that way even with the 3D turned off.

The Htc One X will not be on sprint. Sorry.... In order to improve the mood. Htc did announce and Htc Evo Lte which is an improved versoin of the One X. The kickstand has been improved and may other things.

Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE preview (video) -- Engadget

What do you guys think? Is it now time to upgrade our Evos? I have had my upgrade credit since last October with Sprint, but have seen no reason to upgrade. I live in Omaha, and we never got Wimax, so I never got to use 4G. It would be awesome if a majority of people in this forum upgraded at the same time so we could all move over at the same time.

Looks like I found my next phone!
