good point, a dock is only semi useful though, im not carrying around a dock everywhere, bring on the case with included kickstand. I'll make my own if i must lol.

That would be FTL for me as well. All the cases I tried out for the EVO just made the phone too bulky for my tastes.

BTW the kickstand is an accessory. just saw it on ustream

evotitans · Mar 22, 2011

havent been on here and forever......glad im back today.

Where's the kickstand??? Thats what made the EVO stick out beyond all other phones.

Oh well, I'm still drooling......

dkotoric · Mar 22, 2011

dude besides dual core, I feel like the evo 3d has nothing else I would upgrade for

Directly from Sprint's Fared Adib via Engadget: asynchronous clocking on the two cores. Wow, either he is completely mistaken, or Evo3d is using the MSM8960 processor. I hope this is correct, because asynchronous dual core defiantly will help the evo3d achieve amazing battery life in conjunction with the 1730mah battery.

Harsh on me again lol.

I'm disappointed too. The front looks almost exactly the same as the current EVO. I was hoping for less bezel and more screen, or the logos not to take up the bezel space on top, and the back looks pretty ugly to me.

Kickstand isn't a deal breaker but it definitely sucks to see it missing.

I'm a little disappointed. The 2 things that are most disappointing, based on the specs released, 1) No Kickstand, and 2) Taller phone than current EVO.

Other than that, I'll just have to think about it until it's closer to the release date. I'd still likely to be content with my current EVO for another year, without a doubt. The main thing that's keeping me intrigued is the talk about the processor in conjunction with battery saving capabilities.

The 3D stuff and the improved camera is a bonus, but not crucial for me. The dedicated camera button is a plus for sure.

Link ftw, please.

im disappointed too. I wanted wimax/lte with a kickstand. smh.

So, to summarize, there is nothing that Sprint unveiled today that we didn't already know from the leaks. No LTE, no kickstand on EVO 3D.

Taller means more movie-friendly aspect ratio.

evomattnc · Mar 22, 2011

yeah the only reason i would consider an upgrade is because of the dual asynchronous processors, its enticing but i may actually weigh pros and cons now and wait for my official upgrade.

-EDIT- Nevermind. I thought you were talking about it having no kickstand...don't mind me.
It's in the video, but took a screen cap:

But the screen's the same size.

I believe we wanted a link fo rthe kickstand accessory comment from sgt slaughter on ustream....

spridell · Mar 22, 2011

I am watching the video on Streamly.TV| Live

they had the original EVO next to the EVO 3d and the screen on the EVO 3d just blows away the original EVO screen.

Much much much better

jackgibbs · Mar 22, 2011

yeah, hopefully that casing isn't final. I don't like it, and it makes no sense at all to take away the kickstand...

also, with the two cameras vertical in portrait mode, does that mean you have to flip it to landscape to use the 3d/stereoscopic features?

True that, how much taller do you think it was? looked like it was 1/4 inch or less to me...

Yes but if I'm eating my lunch, the Evo propped up on a kickstand will look much better than an Evo3D laying flat on the table :cool:

cabbie · Mar 22, 2011

this is terribly disappointing. one can hope that a quick hardware revision will bring us our kickstand back. without a kickstand, its not an evo.

Yeah, I realized that after the fact. This website has kickstand indicated as something that can allow the phone to be viewed in portrait AND landscape:

HTC EVO 3D details revealed

-NEVERMIND- Source is these forums...LOL.

cabbie · Mar 22, 2011

and the amount of space the cameras take make it look harder to hold the device

They just went offline but was the first time i saw someone do a ustream of the event like that.
StreamlyTV on USTREAM: .

I could of miss herd about the kickstand but i am 100% sure there is one for the view, though wanna say he mentioned there is one for the 3D too.
