I am not a person that needs a phone to have all amazing reviews to buy it. I understand the position of a reviewer is to both bring up positives and negatives about a product.
What i have a problem with is the lack of positives and strong emphasis on the negatives on the EVO. I dont understand the bias with this phone. Sure it's not perfect. But it seems like most reviewers finish their reviews with ....I'd wait to buy it until the 4g coverage is better and the battery life is better or sprint doesnt charge the $10 data fee....
How can this phone be superior in almost every way to the Incredible and equal in the areas that its not superior in yet that phone was released with such strong great reviews? I dont get the Bias here.
The EVO has the option to be a great 3g phone plus let many of us use 4g (and that many more by end of year). But for reviewers to say they wouldnt hold off on buying it due to lack of 4g just doesnt add up. Why would they not buy it based on it being a 3g phone. Because of the measly $10. Yet the iphone charged a $30 data plan and a $15 sms plan to so many people who only have Edge (2G). Yet i cant remember any reviews that said they wouldnt buy the iPhone because most of America doesnt have 3G with AT&T. Yet spring charges $10 more (which is still cheaper than iPhone) and now people would hold off recommending the phone. Verizon is more expensive with the Incredible and reviewers give great reviews of it. With the Incredible you cant even see the screen at all during the day outside. Why is this not a bigger problem that an added feature like 4G's lack of ceverage maps?
This has me annoyed. I think its a disservice to Sprint to have these reviews. This phone should be the phone that moves them closer to where they need to be. Instead the reviewers are making this phone a luck warm intro.
