“Supersonic” now "EVO" HTC EVO 4G coming June 4 $199.99

http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/htc-evo-4g-is-sprints-android-powered-knight-in-superphone-armo/
The handset is centered around a 480 x 800 4.3-inch TFT LCD, with a Snapdragon QSD8650 1GHz processor under the hood (the CDMA version of the QSD8250 in the HD2 and Nexus One), and even a helpful 1GB of built-in memory and 512MB of RAM -- hello app storage! Even the battery is bigger than the HD2, and the camera is an 8 megapixel monstrosity with flash, that's capable of 720p video, and is augmented by a 1.3 megapixel front facing camera for good measure. The phone features HDMI out (though you'll need an adapter for turning it into a TV-familiar HDMI plug), 802.11b/g WiFi, and an 8GB microSD card
HTC EVO 4G features the latest version of the increasingly popular Android platform, Android 2.1, offering more than 35,000 apps as well as a mind-blowing list of features, including:
Simultaneous voice and data capability in 4G and Wi-Fi coverage areas, enabling Web surfing and more while the conversation continues.
Offering a new way to search with pictures instead of words, Google Goggles works with everything from books, DVDs and barcodes to landmarks, logos, artwork and wine labels.
Superfast 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor ensuring a smooth and quick movement within phone menus.
Two cameras – an 8.0 megapixel auto-focus camera with HD-capable video camcorder and a forward-facing 1.3 megapixel camera.
Built-in mobile hotspot functionality allowing up to eight Wi-Fi enabled devices to share the 3G or 4G experience on the go with a laptop, camera, music player, game unit, video player, or any other Wi-Fi enabled device.
Integrated HD video capture with the ability to capture and share live video via the Qik Web site, Facebook, YouTube or Twitter.
Ability to easily watch video with the device on an HDTV via an HDMI cable (sold separately).
Custom Web browser optimized for the 4.3 inch display and Sprint 4G speeds to deliver a full, no-compromise Internet experience.
A handy kickstand built into the back making it easy to watch videos on-the-go.
Adobe Flash technology ensures that rich Internet content, such as embedded video and animation, are displayed the way they are meant to be seen.
Pinch-to-zoom and automatic text reflowing provide easy Web page views.

Nerdgasm! Nice.

This thing is gonna be sick. And I was just starting to really like my Hero now that I have 2.1 working on it pretty well...

Mobile hotspot app... potential for concurrent data and voice calls... AWESOME.
My decision has been made... the N1 is nice but this thing, once stripped of Sense, will win.

Oooo can't wait to get out basic training and get that beast

Anyone familiar with Sprint's retention department procedures? If I call in and say I broke my phone without insurance will they early upgrade me? I want this ASAP.

If your phone fails 5 times they're supposed to swap it for "something of equal or lesser value"
Chances are you'd get a Moment, MAYBE, MAYBE an N1. as far as the SS, keep dreaming.

I hope they don't saddle it with a huge extra monthly fee for 4G. I'm nowhere near a 4G area, but I'd love to have this phone for its other benefits.
I'd be willing to shell out full price for the phone if they get it in the $600 or less range, but that's just a one time hit. I'm not a big fan of increasing my monthly bill, especially if the increase if for a service I have no chance of being able to use.

Will be out this summer!

I work for AT&T Mobility as a CSR in retention. We will early upgrade someone at 6 months of tenure on their contract if they've lost/broken their phone. At that point, they can get whatever they want being that it's a standard equipment upgrade.

Samsung Galaxy S2 Specs (2GHz, 1GB RAM, etc.)

Source: http://www.redmondpie.com/samsung-galaxy-s2-specs-will-blow-your-brains-out/
The current generation of smartphones – with their 1GHz processors and 512MB of RAM – are already very impressive at what they can do. But rumored specifications (along with a photo) are spreading of the next generation of Samsung’s Galaxy S smartphone – the Galaxy S2 – and its specs will. freaking. blow. your. head. off.

It is supposedly scheduled for release sometime in early 2011 and will supposedly have the following specifications:
-A 2GHz Processor. Possibly the next-generation version of Samsung’s Hummingbird CPU.
-1GB RAM along with 4GB of ROM. This is, as with the CPU, twice the magnitude of current-gen hardware.
-32GB built-in flash memory. MicroSD card slot expandable to 32GB making the Galaxy S2 able to hold 64GB of data.
-8 megapixel camera with full HD (1920×1080) video recording. Current-gen smartphones record video at 720p (1280×720).
-A 4.3” 1280×720 Super AMOLED display
-GPS, Bluetooth 3.0, b/g/n Wi-Fi, accelerometer, gyroscope, proximity / ambient light sensors.
-Run on Android 3.0 “Gingerbread”
While all these specifications are well and sweet, I really, honestly believe smartphone manufacturers, especially of the Android variety, should focus on increasing battery life by optimizing hardware + software instead of just blindly increasing clock speeds and doubling RAM. My HTC Desire still doesn’t last more than 15-16 hours whereas Taimur’s iPhone 4 blows past the 24 hour category without even going below 50%.
And yes, these specs are rumored. But if HTC and Motorola’s intentions of releasing 2GHz smartphones are anything to go by, they aren’t unbelievable.

What do you guys think the battery quality will be?

Jesus, its only 8 threads under this
http://ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=817358

Doubting this, especially if scheduled for early 2011.
Specs looks two gen ahead of current, but if for real, I like it...well, except for the 4.3in screen.

I fail. Delete thread please.

I don't care until they actually give me froyo.

I don't know it sounds more like someones dreams/wish someone had more then a matter of fact...can anyone confirm that Samsung will be releasing Galaxy S2 at all?

they do love dangling the proverbial carrot in front of us don't they?
seriously though, why would you ever need dual core phones? I understand it's the next logical step, but I don't plan on bit torrenting HD porn from my phone. The original Galaxy still seems plenty new and amazing enough for me to not care about another phone for at least a year.

You can't never have too much speed on a phone. Flash contents need quite a bit of CPU and GPU power, emulators will benefit from this, Browsing Speed, Multitasking, etc.
It can't hurt to have the phone boot up faster either.

OMG this again....dud research its beeen posted few down from you......
its fake this rumor started July 5 and people are just blogging...ect of late for attention or they have been living under a rock last few months
Also you would think with these guys bringing up such an old rumor/news they would have something else to go on other than repeating what already been said almost 4 months prior.
You guys really think specs for a new galaxy S would "leak" just few weeks after its predecessor's release...just my opinion

I'd have to agree with the quote in the op though. Instead of doubling the specs, phone manufacturers should work on increasing battery life. The iphone doesn't have ridiculous specs but still manages to do nearly everything android phones do and do it smoother while still lasting a full day.
I don't really need my phone to do much more than it currently does. It matches the iphone in 3d smoothness which is great.. Now I just need it to open and close apps smoother and last a full day. The g2 does it with less ghz, so it should be possible with the vibrants current 1ghz processor.

G2 does it with less mhz/ghz is because it is on a 45 nm fabrication vs. vibrant's 65 nm fabrication. The smaller the more efficient.

http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=cpu&id=a10010&c=samsung_s5pc110
CPU probably handles 800mhz at a really low voltages and found it to be the sweet spot that also conserves battery life
And to answer why its faster well maybe its designed better, such as better cache and maybe some type of "hyper threading" technique....that would explain the extra pipelines on the scorpion ...raw speed isn't always everything
BTW this is all just a guess so dont hold me to this..i know PC's not so much this

The Motorola Atrix 4G and HTC Inspire 4G are the two top Android Fighters on ATT right now. For those of you who are looking just for a highest end smartphone and not the accessory ecosystem that the Motorola offers, it can be a fastest race. Both the Motorla Atrix 4G and the HTC Inspire 4G are Android 2.2 (Froyo) devices at the time of announcement. The Motorola Atrix 4G uses a 1 GHz dual-core Tegra processor to drive a 4-inch screen displaying the Motoblur modification of Android 2.2. The HTC Inspire 4G uses a 1 GHz Snapdragon processor to drive a 4.3-inch screen displaying the Sense modification of Android 2.2. The HTC Inspire 4G has the larger display but the Motorola Atrix 4G has much higher resolution.
The processor speeds are same, but dual-core usually outdoes single-core when discussing processor performance. The HTC Inspire 4G has 4GBs of onboard storage and the Motorola Atrix 4G has 16GBs of onboard storage. The Motorola Atrix 4G has the larger 1930 mAh battery whereas the HTC Inspire 4G has a smaller 1230 mAh. Thus, the HTC Inspire 4G usually runs out of power before the Motorola Atrix 4G when subject to same usage patterns.
The Atrix costs $199 vs. the Inspire’s $99, but the added money gets you a dual core CPU on the Motorola and a front-facing camera. But HTC fights back with a larger 4.3″ display that’s a pleasure to use, and a higher resolution main camera that takes much better shots.
Comparison - HTC Inspire 4G vs Motorola Atrix 4G
​We also putting together a video comparing the two top contender Android phones on AT&T right now. We look at size, design, features and speed too on Video.

Great review thanks.It has helped me in choosing my new phone I’m about 95% sure i’m getting the atrix now. I was waiting for this showdown. i was just surfing the net for comparision like this

God, I'm so conflicted right now. Inspire has community roms(with Gingerbread!) and its half the price.
Atrix is dual core(should be more futureproof), higher resolution and has a better battery life.
What do I do!!!!!!!

Stop walking around annd ttalking in circles, look at your currennt phone, andthink about what you want more from it.
Don't get caught up in the hype or technical specs, right now software > hardware in mobile phones.
I got the Atrix and ended up taking it back because of a few things I didn't like; thhat isn't to say I didn't like the phone, it was very fast, but I just don't I need dual cores right now.
I ended up taking it back and I'm using a Nexus 1 right now.
Look at what you want inyour phone. If you aren't playing HD movies all day and you aren't streaming over HDMI or playing super high quality games, you do not need a dual core phone. People keep saying that stuff is being developed, what stuff? Why? There are going to be leas than 2 dual core phones for each carrier this summer, not enough to entice the majority of app maakers to code for that, most likely because there is no reason at this point.

My phone came with a 2 YEAR contract not a 3 month contract. I'm not looking at what I need right now, or this summer, that's stupid. I'm looking for something that will still work OK 12-24 months from now.
So yes, this summer there will only be a few dual core phones. How about next summer? Besides, pretty much all the new tablets coming out are dual core, and that's where you're really going to see the fancy games. I'd much rather have my beastly dual 1GHz/1GB ram phone getting scaled down tablet apps than continuing to have to play crap designed to run well on a 550mhz Droid 1.

Realistically speaking though, applications developed next year are not going to require dual core processors.
That's why I was sqtibg, if you aren't going to be playing HD games, you don't need to get the Atrix.
I have nothing against the phone, hell I rushed to get it on day one. It's up to you on what you decide to get, I'm just offering my oppinions on what you should do.
I admit the post was a little harsh, but if you just stop and really think about whar is needed or necesary aalong with what you need, the process will be a lot easier.
The only thing stopping me is a locked bootloader that I don't know the progress or future of.

God Gimme a break!

This is just an onslaught of high end options! Thought this one had gone away.
http://www.gizmocrunch.com/rumors/6904-tmobile-samsung-hercules-android

How are we supposed to decide which phone to get next with all these choices!? Lol
And for the 'over $350' part... with a new contract? I honestly don't see that happening. I think $200 and maybe $250 will continue to be the price point for high end phones for a while.

This is actually the same dual core family as the msm8660 dual core snapdragon, not sure what the difference is though. But the hercules only has 1gb of ram, even the Evo Shift has 2 gb.

apparently the bold html he added threw it for a loop (remove the )

"It basically matches the HTC EVO 3D, HTC Sensation & Samsung Galaxy S2 in many ways but offers a larger display."
The new toys will always be better than the old toys in some ways . . . what other industry can pry hundreds of dollars from their customer's wallets every year or so, willingly, just by providing new eye candy . . ?

Uh, what are you smoking? The Shift has 512 mb ram.
And the only difference with this phone and the EVO appears to be a .2 inch difference on the screen, and super amoled.
You'd still be trading in a higher resolution, 3D, and a dedicated camera button for this phone.

I look at it this way. I won't be due for upgrade til January, so I'll looking in December, at what's out there. My only mistake with the Evo was that it was already out 6 months when I got it, although it was good in that a LOT of development had already been done on it, still, my next upgrade will be a newer device.

Well losing 3D isnt really a big loss lol... at all. And as far as the resolution, the SAMOLED screen display is still the best there is anyways.

4.5"!!! Dear lord. After having an Evo, I want my next phone to be a 4"... of course it seems like the specs go up with screen size, which is stupid. I don't see awesome specs in anything less than a 4.3 these days.

The Evo 3d and Sensation will both have locked bootloaders(so the rumors say) plus the 3d has a ****ty 5mp camera(ok 2 of them but who the hell cares about taking 3d pics?) and the sensation has no 4G and only 1GB of internal memory(WTF HTC?).. Also this phone(as well as the Galaxy S 2) is made by Samsung. So, while you may be positively torn by this difficult decision, I assure you that I speak for many of us here when I say "MEH, I'm good with my Evo".

I feel the opposite of you. I got my Evo in March of this year and I am glad I waited. My friend recently got a Thunderbolt when it was only out 2 weeks and there were barely any ROMS for it, it was a NIGHTMARE to root and he had hardware problems(which supposedly will be fixed in later versions). However when I got my phone, it had a TON of dev work done on it, and the hardware kinks were sorted out. Of course if you don't wanna root/flash etc then a brand new phone would do great. But I wouldn't want one. Not to mention you never know when the newest phone will be a success or not. Some phones never "take off" and so the Devs don't do much for them. But by getting a slightly older phone I was able to make sure that the there was a large DEV community devoted to it. Some of the device forums for android phones are down right depressing in their lack of goodies!!

Lol, to crush? Really?

the new 5mp sensors should be better than our 8mp ones, just because of quality. iphone's 5mp KILLS our 8mp any day. so this to me says the 3d will be better than the evo in every way (minus kickstand, and maybe the dreaded bootloader lock, in which case the sgs2 will be the best probably)

That's really just an assumption tho. The reason(according to my google search) that we have crappy cameras isn't the sensor it's the fact that the video has to be compressed as it's recorded(even for stills) to the SD card. SD cards are slow. iPhones don't have them. They don't need the compression. The same manufacturer actually makes the cameras for both HTC Evo and Iphone 4. I'm not a DEV so if that's not true don't blame me that's just what I'm reading. Anyway, since the Evo3D has only 4g Internal it's a pretty safe bet that they will still be writing to an SD card. So unless HTC has figured out how to compress better(and that may not even be possible for all I know) then I'm very worried that the camera's won't be better at all. But if the 5mps look better than the 8mps we have now, and IF there is no locked bootloader then and only then would I even consider an Evo 3D. So here's hoping that they read this post and scrap them all and start over! We want our kickstand!
**** the Whales, Save Our Kickstands!

Bob Freking’s concept involves the announcement of Google Wireless, the company’s own carrier with cheap 4G plans. Also, know that the phones with support for this newfound carrier will lack bloatware and will be thinner, lacking a SIM card, that will actually be built in. Google Nexus 2013 features a 4.8 inch AMOLED display with a 1600 x 900 pixel resolution, a 1.6 GHz Nvidia Tegra 4 quad core processor and a 13.1 megapixel HD camera. The device is suppoed to be sold by Google for $299 unlocked and for $49 locked on Google Wireless.
This “Nexus 2″ runs Android Key Lime Pie, with an updated version of Google Now and G Network, that offers free messaging and calls to other Android 4.2 phones. By the way Key Lime Pie is actually Android 4.2. The phone also integrates the Google Fiber service and as far as design goes, Nexus 2013 has some cool lines at the back, that light up depending on the notification you get. This lighting system is actually the famous logo of the Nexus family. Everything is covered with polycarbonate and Gorilla Glass and other specs include a 2 megapixel front camera and 3000 mAh battery. Beautiful and brilliant work Bob!

Looks ugly and really tacky with the lights at the back. And $299 unlocked? No way.

Good thing its just a concept. Good god it's hideous IMO.

Anybody who thinks a 1600x900 screen is coming is an idiot. Anything over 300ppi is just for bragging since at that point your eyes can't see the difference.

Google is going to be a carrier now? Who's towers they using because they sure as hell don't have a network of their own? Unless the plans are unlimited I don't care how good the phone is. I don't care how mucher slower Sprints 3G and 4G are at least I can own a $200-$300 high end phone and not be a bandwidth monitoring idiot chasing wifi signals around or paying redicuously overpriced tiered data. If Google wants to dominate the mobile market they have to offer unlimited at a fair price.

hi, i just find this wow ,sure this will be my next phone ,
Bob Freking’s concept involves the announcement of Google Wireless, the company’s own carrier with cheap 4G plans. Also, know that the phones with support for this newfound carrier will lack bloatware and will be thinner, lacking a SIM card, that will actually be built in. Google Nexus 2013 features a 4.8 inch AMOLED display with a 1600 x 900 pixel resolution, a 1.6 GHz Nvidia Tegra 4 quad core processor and a 13.1 megapixel HD camera. The device is suppoed to be sold by Google for $299 unlocked and for $49 locked on Google Wireless.
This “Nexus 2″ runs Android Key Lime Pie, with an updated version of Google Now and G Network, that offers free messaging and calls to other Android 4.2 phones. By the way Key Lime Pie is actually Android 4.2. The phone also integrates the Google Fiber service and as far as design goes, Nexus 2013 has some cool lines at the back, that light up depending on the notification you get. This lighting system is actually the famous logo of the Nexus family. Everything is covered with polycarbonate and Gorilla Glass and other specs include a 2 megapixel front camera and 3000 mAh battery. Beautiful and brilliant work Bob!

wow wow wow wow wow ....

I would love 2 have phone looking like that. A beauty ...

Looks like the God of battery drain on smartphones IMO. Oh, and let's just throw capacitive keys out the window, they weren't giving us much success right guys? (Sarcasm). Pretty soon, we'll be able to run a full laptop OS on our phones as these processors start reaching 2GHz+

I really like the design but it's too big for me. A new phone in the size of the Nexus S would be great. :fingers-crossed:

Specs and price look awesome!! Design is a bit mwahh...

The major downside, if this is real, is the lack of sim slot. What about people overseas?
Google launches things worldwide that works only in USA... (google now, offline maps on actual google map version, for ex.)
Is it safe to say that probally there is gonna be a international version and a "google fiber" version?

I really like the price! But there's no way it's gonna be that price =/.

price, phone, plan...I'd go for it!!! That is one sexy phone!! If the lights on the back can change color (and if it were real) I'd snatch one up before it even touched the shelf!!
Definitely, BY FAR the nicest looking nexus yet!!!
