I really like both these phones and can't seem to decide. Can someone help me with this dilemma and the main differences that would help me decide between the two.
The big question isn't which phone. I have the X and I came from a Storm. Love my new Droid but from what I've seen of the Evo 4g, it looks pretty good too. But that brings me to the big question, which carrier do you want? Sprint or Verizon? Depending on where you live this will be or "should be" more of the selling point. Good luck, I think you'll be happy with either.
right now im not with any carrier, im in boston and by Q4 of 2010 it will get 4g and with sprint i get unlimited data and messaging as well as 450 minutes for 70 which i would have to pay 90 or something in verizion
I had the EVO for 30-days. In my opinion the EVO is aesthetically amazing (I like rounded corners), has an amazing UI (Sense), can be rooted & ROM'd, has a kickstand (should be required on phones of this size) will only get better with updates, and once you get used to the size (in about 12 hours or less), I realized the benefits of messaging, video, and web browsing were worth it.
I like the X because it's on my carrier of choice. I won't lie - I will miss Sense, and although there are apps/widgets in the Market that can substitute, non look as polished as HTC's. However, I believe the build quality is amazing, the screen is gorgeous (as is the EVO's), battery life have been slightly better than the EVO was, it sounds zippier (Sorry, but the EVO - regardless that it has the same processor - just didn't perform as quickly), and I appreciate it's dedicated GPU. The main reason I am getting the X, is because I actually fell in love with the EVO's screen size, and realize I wanted something similar with my carrier of choice.
Nobody, in this forum, that has an EVO should feel like they are missing out. We X'ers and you EVO'ers have really made out perfectly in both cases.
wow thanks alot what a helpful post you nailed it. whats up with gaming in the evo? plus can you resize widgets in the evo like with the droid x through some app or customization or something? Right now im going for the evo
