If that's so, then I'm happy to know that Sprint decide to keep the EVO line alive. Yea!So its going to be called the EVONE.....LOL
Check this speculation out....
HTC One X to be renamed HTC EVO ONE on Sprint? | Ubergizmo
Sprint HTC EVO One Detailed
HTC hasn't really been known of making real great quality screens. So how is that SLCD2 screen? I keep hearing its pretty awesome.

Well, I guess I'll have to wait and see what Motorola does for Sprint, but I'm eagerly waiting for the announcement next week.
Ooh, I was just doing a size comparison on Phonearena...Even though I like the idea of screens getting bigger, the overall real estate of the EVO One is bigger than the 3D or the MoPho. Not sure I like that. I wasn't a big fan of the SGS 2 size either, even though the phone was thin, it just didn't feel comfortable holding (to me), so I'd imagine this would feel the same/similar.
How can they increase the screen size without increasing the overall real estate?
Calling all CPU/GPU-nerds and dev's:
Will the S4 have as much legs as the OG Evo's CPU/GPU? Will it still be super-fast as more multi-threaded app's and processes hit the market?
I'm still rolling with the OG Evo, and love that it's just recently feeling slow/outdated (but still just as awesome as my wife's recently purchased iP4S = suck it, apple!!) and giving me the itch for a new upgrade. I'm stuck between the Evo One and SGS3, and trying to determine if I want current domination in theoretical benchmarks, or possible future domination as the dev community picks up the pace in multi-threading...
Thoughts?
ICS is how. The way I understand it, ICS eliminates the need for "soft key" buttons because the buttons are integrated into the OS. So where there's soft key buttons on the current phones, that portion of the current phones could be used for increased screen viewing.
oops who doesn't like icing though!
this feels like the original EVO launch all over again haha. rumors of the phone (accurate rumors) start to spread 2 months before release, followed by pictures a few days before the announcement then the agonizing wait until release
Yeah, I forgot about that. It would be nice if a manufacturer could get on board with that and make it happen.
However, even if they move them on screen they will still waste screen space a majority of the time. I'll miss my hardware buttons. Internet browsing without a dedicated back button will get frustrating. And an on screen button would take away from my window view. A notification bar style button bar or using gestures would get annoying.
I like the menu options a lot of applications have too.
Home is handy occasionally, but Search has always been pointless for me.
htc never made any screens.. they purchase from manufactures..
but.. i am on the fence about which might be better..
Amoled = to colorful (can be adjusted).. but has good power consumption and contrast.
SLCD2 = better colors, more natural..
I'm bias, I would say!? When windows started the smartphone, I've had and HTC phone and never really gave thought to other phone... especially after all the tech I know say that HTC phones are easier to hack and updates comes quick!
I was, until Sprint came out with their first Motorola Android superphone, in the Photon.
The "official" updates for Motorola have been on par with HTC's. It's Samsung that has always lagged behind (at least, in the US market..and prior to the popularity of the SGS 2). That said, the locked bootloaders which plagued Motorola phones, as far as rooting is concerned, definitely had a factor in people who wanted to root their phones immediately.
To this day, I haven't even ventured into the rooting realm yet, so that's never been a "deciding" factor for me.
