    Pentile screen?

    With the brightness turned down, it's pretty much a non-factor, although as mentioned, when viewing photos or videos the colors can look washed out with a lack of detail. Cranking up the brightness not only burns my retinas, but really shows off that screen door effect. I'm not noticing any lag...

Didn't really get a chance to play with motoblur since lpp was synched. The hardware is awesome though and the phone feels great in my hands. Sent from...

    My question revolved more around CDMA 800 on SMR as opposed to the 4g rollout over 800MHz. I believe the EVO3D has the bands necessary to use 817-824MHz (I think), which theoretically would allow for better building penetration, whereas the Photon does not (at least based on initial docs). I...

    This pretty much sums up my take on the Photon. Just wish we could get final word on the display and the CDMA 800 (or lack thereof) frequency.

    Signal strength and call quality

    Didn't want to start a new thread. Has anyone seen any benefits to having CDMA 800? I know Sprint is just beginning their vision (or whatever it's called) rollout. Just curious if anyone has seen improvements when it comes to building penetration. Signal strength is pretty important to me and...
