There are, I'm sure, other very good smart phones out there. I'm not even going to say that Apple's iPhone is a piece of crap; it's not. However, it's no EVO LTE. IMHO, the EVO LTE blows away the iPhone 4S. I haven't even scratched the surface on what my EVO LTE can do, and I may not ever do that (and that's fine). Despite this, it just is a better phone than the iPhone, the Nexus, the Galaxy S3, or anything else out there right now. Hands down, if you ask me.
And to think LTE isn't even up and running in my part of the galaxy.
I just wish Sprint would advertise and hype the hell out of this, because if you ask me, people don't know what they're missing. Even my brother and sister, both of whom are upgrade eligible from their current EVO OGs within the next 2 months, have been duped into thinking the EVO LTE is not that big of an improvement. I've been trying to tell them it's simply awesome in every way.
For me, this is without a doubt the best cell phone I've ever owned, and that goes all the way back to the 1980s, when they were big, unportable, LED monsters.
