Why is everyone hating on the Evo?

[desairs]

I've seen so many threads about the Apple fanboys and the Verizon fanboys bashing the Evo. Come on people the phone isn't even out yet. I'm not going to say that it's a better phone because in all honesty the only thing that we have is specs and videos. The only real way to judge a phone is after experiencing it from day to day. I've also seen people complaining about the bigger screen. LOLWUT?

I'm a person that likes to have all the facts before I make a decision and I honestly don't know which phone is the best yet. Plus which ever phone I prefer is not the best phone out there but only the best phone for me. It's all subjective.

Haters will always hate but all I know is HTC has been making premium products wayyyyyyyyy before Apple ever made a damn phone. I remember my first smart phone being an HTC SPV/E100 from orange when I was with T-mobile. I ordered it unlocked off ebay and it was one of the best phones I ever had even though it was windows based. I wanna see the new iphone or even the ipad for that matter power up to 8 devices, run on true 4g, and multitask.

Apple is getting worse and worse IMO. There idea of "multitasking" is comical to say the least. Their supposed "new iphone" looks more outdated than their first iphone and don't even get me started on Iad, and the icon pages. Even with 4.0, I don't see anything revolutionary. It's still the same boring OS.

My point is let them hate all they want but HTC is HOT and is only getting hotter with each phone they make. I believe that the EVO will be our dream device that we have been longing for...

I haven't seen any hate at all. Even my Apple-fanboy friends can't deny how awesome it is.

There will never be a device that everybody loves but the buzz on the internet regarding the EVO has been highly positive from what I've seen. I'm getting one, if some people want to hate it, then so be it.

I haven't seen that much hate either. In fact, I've yet to read a single hate thread. If you read the comments on engadget or gizmodo everytime they post an EVO post, everybody is going crazy for the phone. When I read an Apple post, especially iPad related, it's just a bunch of bitching.

 

[eieio]

For the same reason people hate on Apple.. The more popular you are the more haters you will have..

 

[vacoray]

I'd like to put an arrow right through an ipad. Wait is Steve going to sue me for this?

 

[kibble]

See, hatin' on Apple is different though. We should all be a community here and not hate on fellow android devices... Can't we all just get along?

*shields self from flying rocks*

The EVO is a GREAT mini tablet. I dont think people are hating on it they are just expressing why they would prefer a pocketable phone running the same OS over a mini tablet that can make calls. Thats all.

I haven't seen hate. OTOH, I find it hard to believe that the phone will live up to the hype. OTO OH, why isn't it June 4th yet?

LOL. It will crack me up if we can get enough people that the phone is referred to as a mini tablet. Steve might have a stroke!

Because it is the crappiest phone to bare the Android OS

I dunno. For geeks this stuff is like sports teams or political affiliation. We decide what we like and can be vocal about it. Also some people have a lot of spare time and energy. I'll tell anyone why I won't get this or that device but don't really care what they spend their cash on in the long run.

I'm not even going to read neodorian's posts anymore, I'm just going thank each one because I know it will be educational.

the only hate I've seen is from the crow guy and it's all about the size of the phone. I do agree it is an oversized phone, but the minute I held the HD2 I knew I wanted a 4.3in screen, it was simply amazing. I actually would not be as excited about this phone if it was the Incredible or Nexus One.

 

[globalthunder]

I have used the new Evo, its the Incredible but much bigger and heavier. Can you handle the Sprint network?
