NBA Commentators Blows Name of EVO 4G LTE

**int_architect** · 05-27-2012, 09:00 PM

So, during the Sprint-sponsored halftime show of the OKC/SA playoff game, with Charles Barkley holding the phone, commentator Ernie Johnson, Jr. refers to it as the "HTC 4G Light" - not once but twice!

Obviously LTE is short for lite... well if you're on some sort of drugs.

Well it is lighter than previous EVOs so he wasn't too far off.

I heard and saw that too. Check out my other thread and there are some pictures of him holding it. LOL Charles Barkley promotes the EVO LTE

This is good news for those wondering. . .if Sprint is pushing this phone like that, chances are that a national release can't be far off. . .

They're sports announcers.

Not exactly the best and brightest.

Yes, but trashing the company and not know the name isn't exactly what Sprint pay for

That's my point. Sprint paid big money for that time. I'd be pretty upset if I was Mr. Hesse.

I must admit that the phone looked really nice & super slim.

Yea i thought i heard kenny say the network was horrible! Lol then chuck apologized, at first i was a bit offended but with the recent decline of the 3G network speeds, maybe they'll realize that Sprints 3G speeds are "terrible" and need to be adjusted sooner....

yes, kenny said the network was slow, then Ernie Johnson apologized to Hesse. Ernie kept saying EVO Lite. Sprint has a right to be ticked off about that for being the lead sponsor. The magic of live television.
