I would be happy if it came out with a 4.7" screen, because then I wouldn't feel a need to downgrade from my 5" DNA. On the other hand, an aluminum phone with specs superior to the DNA may just force me to switch carriers again. :?

It's launching tommorow!?
Do you have a source?
I would love to know if it shows up on Verizon or not. (Current contract ends next month, was waiting it out to see if this phone releases or to just get the DNA)
i think we wont be hearing anything about a verizon variant, so it wont matter

It's kind of standard in forums where a large number of users are interested in switching to a device. It's off topic, but I see it a lot. Like in the Rezound section there's a thread for people discussing the DNA with fellow rezound users, there was probably a rezound thread in the thunderbolt section last year, etc.
It will worth if they put on the new Qualcomm cpu...as for design htc is really great on design for phones....but personally love black & red combination. That's why I own sensation xe and rezound except DNA...as for build quality I am sure would be great...if the m7 aka one will be same as in render photos...I think that will be very beautiful but not as DNA...
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
well if this phone has a 4.7 inch screen I see no reason I would downgrade to it but at 5 inches, I may just have to dumb my DNA, I am on att so Verizon not getting is is not a issue for me.
The 4.7" screen will mean higher ppi....and that might be their only point against other OEMs.....that's sum trick from HTC "oh let's pull them to the 5" barria then run back and make a phone smaller for every day use" ...to be sincere 5" should have been a no go area for smartphones ....phablet and 5" is brtter

Whatever. Imagine these phones to be like the great wrestling tag team of Legion of Doom. The DNA is Animal and the M7 is Hawk. These devices should dominate of thier carriers. The DNA will thrive on the Verizon network and the M7 will be good for Sprint. Eventually, the M7 will come to Verizon but I'm not ready to jump to get it. Its just another phone and in my mind I have the best on the market.

Yep unless its coming to Verizon makes no difference to me at this time. I doubt it will and even if it does it will take months.
i can care less about the m7 honestly. im happy with my dna, but what id really love to see a sense 5.0 rom or ota for the dna
The design is sexy. I'm loving the DNA but I don't mind HTC starting to push design in that direction at all.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Xparent Red Tapatalk 2
Not enough of a hardware upgrade to make me hypothetically regret my DNA purchase (since it isn't available on VZW), but hopefully some of those UI changes will percolate over to the DNA (perhaps contractually already in the pipeline, and the reason for the no-thanks from VZW?). While it's a crazy pain in the ass to get to the local photo storage (why not have a drop down menu for the cloud options?!?!), the Zoe gallery previews from the Youtube video look really great - very Harry Potter-esque, if you will. Obviously, the exclusive hardware things like the speakers and OIS camera are nice, but the DNA takes acceptable photos, and nothing, not a Nokia or HTC, is ever going to take photos that replace my Sony NEX-5N.
Hopefully, the Zoe enhancements aren't hardware dependent, but otherwise, would love to see a quick upgrade for the DNA to Sense 5.

Well see thats my question.
will the Evo 3d be a Lg phone or a htc phone?
It has that Samsung feel to it, but it's a pretty sweet phone. It feels solid and the little chin bit feels nice in the hand, but I'm not huge on the plastic myself. Nice to see it at least come to Sprint, I'm not entirely sold on these dual cores as I don't game or take in a whole lot of media on it sans music / random videos. 3D phones ... ehh, it should be the big phone of the 2 and I know the 3D toggle will be there ... and there is all that talk about 3D on displays that don't really do it justice ... blah blah blah. I'd consider the Nexus S, especially for just a year. Will be interesting to see what is what.
I'm itching to find out how much it'll sell for. I don't have any problems with selling my Evo to get my hands on a Nexus S on Sprint.

they will soon. probably at ctia. but their dual cores are inferior to the tegra/samsung dual cores. @ 1ghz vs 1ghz, htc/qualcomm's is about 25% slower. qualcomm is setting them at 1.2 ghz so it'll make up some of the gap but power consumption will shoot up plus the tegra 2 is 5nm smaller so tegra 2 is overall more power efficient. i'd personally want a tegra 2 but not much of a choice.

Its just hard to take Samsung serious when it comes to phones. I mean the rule the tv world but I just don't like how they support their phones(taking forever with updates/fixes). Very hard to believe the nexus s is a sammy product and not an HTC.
Nexus S IS NOT SAMSUNG's. For the last time, GOOGLE wanted the phone, GOOGLE gave samsung the specs, GOOGLE tested it, and it's aosp. It is no where close to the **** support that the other samsung craphones get.

But hey tuesday I get it in hands, my new Note
Any suggestions for a good Car nav programm? And ofcourse the must have apps on it, gimme ideas guys!
All I got go say is if you have a upgrade coming up soon this is the phone to get. If your worried about the lack of a physical keyboard trust me I feel your pain but after having this phone for about 3days already I can honestly say I don't miss the physical keyboard at all. This phone is so much earlier to root and install customs roms. The speed is incredible and with the right rom and kernel combo you can easily get over 6000 on the benchmarks score. Oh if your short on cash don't worry what ever corporate sprint store you go to they will buy back your old epic for 80.00. If you got an upgrade coming the touch is the way to go. Did I mention front facing video recorder. Well anyway it was indeed a pleasure being apart of this wonderful forum for over a year I hope to see you soon over on the epic touch forums. Take care.

Why would people update only to be stuck on contract for two years with no LTE? Plus the keyboard is still a need for me or a bigger screen the Galaxy Nexus sized screen is looking good for me. You mentioned it was easier to root and install custom ROM on the ET4G how exactly can it be easier than a one click root on froyo or flashing clockwork mod on gingerbread, then flashing a ROM in clockwork?...also with CM7(which is official on our phone now) we get front facing camera video recording also. So I don't really see the need to get an ET4G

Negatives:
-800x480 screen: So 2 years ago. 1280x720 AMOLED or bust.
-WiMax: They're not expanding to my area, so I'd rather go with the future LTE.
-Quad-Core phones are coming out. Higher performance ceiling at the same battery use, or even less with newer deep sleep modes.
My upgrade isn't until june, so I'll be going Quad-core.
While the ET4G is undoubtedly the best Sprint phone, I don't think it is worth using an upgrade on. The OG Epic is still a very good phone and is only getting better thanks to the great work of our devs. I will be using my upgrade on a quad core LTE 1280x720 monster phone. Probably the GS3.
Wait for an LTE device. Would be the best logical phone choice imo

I bought my daughter (15 yrs old spoiled rotten brat, lol I kid) the Touch. sprint had a nice sale + her upgrade which made it a nice xmas gift.

i was thinking about the white epic touch, but wouldn't use an upgrade for it, just the tax refund.
See a lot of people waiting on the GS3 but the 2 isn't that old, how long would it be till 3 comes out? Are there official mumblings of a 3 with specs n such or is this all just assumption?
No 4G in my area and who knows when I'll get it, not sure waiting on LTE is worth it.
*edit* also I wouldn't be using an upgrade if I did get a new one, just pay for it straight up. Store guys hate it when you get a phone without a contract though.

However its looking more and more that the rumors are true that it will be made by LG and be based off of their flagship optimus g.

Allegedly, there's gonna be a whole line of 5 nexuses (nexii?), with one by samsung, a minor update to the gnex (1.5 ghz a9 dual core). Another would be the lg optimus g nexus (or nexus g) which as you mentioned would be quad core s4 768p, 2gb ram. Another would be the nexus 5 by htc with 1080p, quad core s4, 2gb ram. The new thing about these is that they will have a customization center where you will have the choice of different themes, some of them being manufacturer themes. So an HTC nexus could run sense.

Not sure. It looks like sprint and google are getting closer. Although, it looks like tmo is definitely getting it soon since they cancelled the one x + which means there's something better coming (since its probably not bug related because its being released on other carriers worldwide). That doesn't mean sprint can't be soon though. It does surprise me that lg made their optimus g so close too the nexus release. Idk if the nexii would have a coordinated launch either where each are released together worldwide. They may be staggered over the next few months or so.

hardware benchmarking beats all the android competition out so far.
but must add, american models always have some kinda variance to the original so they might change a few things. seeing that an lg nexus is coming out at around the same time, seems quite likely too.

I think you should try to hold both of them in hand for a while so you can see if dna isn't too big for you. Imho comfort is more important than hardware since both are high end.
I haven't played with any, but I would go with the Droid DNA. From what i've heard, it is blazing fast. But ive also heard it feels like the iphone 5 but bigger. i.e. the remote control feel i like to say. It feels like you're holding a tv remote when using it with one hand but if that won't bother you, go for the DNA.
DNA Droid, simply because it has a full 1080p screen among other things under the hood but unfortunately there is no release date in the UK so ordered a Nexus 4 instead.
