Everyone is different, its got to feel good in "your" hands. All these new devices are amazing. I really can't stand when people bicker back and forth over who's phone is better. They all do pretty much the same things, and they also all have there own unique, endearing features. They all have things that make you scratch your head and wonder why. Its all good. Peace bro!
EVO-LUTION 3D
Totally agree, I don't feel there's anyway to definitively label one better than the other. Both are dual core, 1 gig of ram, hi res displays, HDMI out, etc. Performance will be about the same, each will do some things a lil better or worse than the other.
At the end of the day, I'm sure the photon will deliver the performance we've come to expect from high end devices these days. The EVO 3D has definitely done so in my opinion. I love mine as much now as did on launch day.
There is no such thing as an across the board perfect device. The beauty of Android however is that there is in all likelihood a perfect device for YOU. For me the choice was EVO 3D, galaxy s II, and photon, three high end dual core beasts. Being an original EVO owner I leaned more in that direction. Galaxy s II didn't even have a tentative release date and looked too much like the iPhone , and I didn't find the photon as aesthetically pleasing to my eye as the 3D. I also felt that if i was going to get a phone with a skin, go with the best which I think is sense. I went with the EVO 3D and couldn't be happier.
Some People will say photon is better because of the laptop and car docks etc and while I think those things are great its not as though they're coming with the phone, u have to buy them later. World capability is nice, but if you're not a hardcore traveler then its moot. Some will say EVO because of the large hacking/rom community.
Bottom line both are great and instead of looking to nitpick and try to one up other devices I appreciate the fact that Android and Sprint have given me such worthy phones to choose from
