...rabble rabble rabble.

Now that I finally have this thing, I just need to rant. After using it for 35 minutes, here are my qualms:

1. The battery life sucks!
2. Sense is terrible!!!1!
3. Can I turn Sense off?
4. The radios are terrible!!!1!
5. Two dead pixels!!!!!!!
6. The camera is actually ****-poor.
7. The battery is terrible, absolutely positively trash.
8. The screen is washed out.
9. Mine's flimsy - the build quality suckz!!

That is all. I'm returning this as we speak, hangin on tight for the Samsung Galaxy S3 Epic 4G LTE HD.

PS... I love this phone! Enjoy fellow EVO LTE users

Sounds like this is a bit over exaggerated. I can't help much since I don't have one but this seems a bit extreme.

I can understand a stuck pixel, or some hard ware issue it does happen from time to time but this is quite a list for what 35 minutes of use?

FYI, Given Samsung's history of radio issues/problems I don't think your going to find anything better there either.

I believe I sense (no pun intended?) some sarcasm in this post. Mine is charging now...

**elvis077** · 05-24-2012, 06:40 PM

No, sounds pretty legit. I'm sure that the phone its exactly as people describe. So instead of going to pick up my pre order, I'm going to pass.. J/k I'm going to get it right now, because all of those problems are you, or your opinion, and I won't have a single issue. But please let us know how the s3 is.

Sadly, I agree with 90% ofmwhatnyou said. I am vey underwhelmed with this device and ice cream sandwich. The whole reducing the screen area of every app is really annoying and a deal breaker . Why have a 4.7 screen effectively reduced to 4.3 by the software?

**mobius1484** · 05-24-2012, 06:45 PM

I feel like not even having it for a day isn't a very good indicator of battery life.

Are you really complaining about the battery after 35 minutes? Let me guess. You are a 14 year old and you begged your parents to early upgrade and buy you this phone? Sucks with a z?

It takes several (correct) charge cycles until you get the best results.

But by all means, you should take it back and get a Samsung especially if you want solid build quality.../end sarcasm

**pteezay** · 05-24-2012, 06:50 PM

You can't even fully charge a phone in 30mins. Ever heard of conditioning a battery? C'mon man.... Give it a good charge and full days use before posting a quick comment like that. Did you have the LTE radio on? Not to mention what phone did you have before? A crApple iPhone?

**MDteX** · 05-24-2012, 06:52 PM

So far all of the apps I've tried have been full screen.

**bbrammeier** · 05-24-2012, 06:53 PM

Trolling maybe?

**Paul627g** · 05-24-2012, 06:53 PM

I couldn't give any part of the phone a fair shake after 35 minutes... Enough said.

**aztecgod106** · 05-24-2012, 06:55 PM

Wow..I'm at lost for words...really. I would usually say your ignorant. Wait....i just did :-)

That really was a kickass sense pun. Well played.

**Love Divine** · 05-24-2012, 07:09 PM

Was hoping you guys would catch the sarcasm... Not blatant enough?

I frickin love this thing

not really, you have to understand, it's hard to catch sarcasm over text or forum. w/ a post like this, no one will understand your joke unless you say so from the beginning.

Thank god, I was about to give up on humanity altogether. Enjoy your phones everyone. I really wish Sprint had good signal in my area and I would pick this thing up in a heartbeat. But, I guess it's not meant to be.

**Dakota 35-2** · 05-24-2012, 07:30 PM

I have noticed a worse signal with this phone that I did in my last OF EVO... *Shrugs shoulders*

Can I see a screen shot of that? If that's the case I think I might stay with my nexus...

**jaescott** · 05-24-2012, 07:38 PM

Now I'm looking at my nexus screen... maybe I'll just wait on my evo

I predicted this complaint. I don't own the phone but feel the same.

**venomousranger** · 05-24-2012, 10:12 PM

I love this phone. It's amazing, especially compared my EVO 3D. But my 3g keeps disconnecting and the WiFi is super slow and I usually get a network error.My wife's Epic Touch 4g has no issueswith connections and my roomates IPhone 4s (Sprint) are working fine. I think that I have gotten a bad phone but I am going to take it to a Sprint store to see if they can test it for me. It's a sweet phone. Looks so cool that I don't want to put a case on it but I am going to end up dropping it.

**Quis89** · 05-24-2012, 10:30 PM

I figured the sarcasm was obvious when he began by saying, "After 35 minutes of use" and then led into "Battery life sucks!"...

That seemed like a dead giveaway to me...

mine does the same thing 3g and wifi.

**MDteX** · 05-24-2012, 10:41 PM

Mine is just the opposite. This has a much better signal and connection than my old EVO. Wifi has been very fast.

Then in the last paragraph he (she?) states that he LOVES the phone and encourages FELLOW Evo LTE owners to enjoy their phones. Obvious good natured sarcasm.
