Who else came from an Evo? What do you like better about the Epic and what are some things you miss about the Evo?
For me, obviously the slide out keyboard is a big plus. I got used to the touch keypad, but I can't stand how much real estate the keypad takes when typing. I didn't think the .3 inches in screen size would make a big difference, but to me it's noticeable. The clarity and contrast of the Epic screen makes up for it though.
One thing I really miss about the Evo is the browser. The epic browser is annoying to me after using the Evo browser for a couple months. The Evo browser just seemed much smoother and quicker when resizing the page. It was also much more accurate when resizing. I'm finding that I often have to scroll slightly to the left or right after a zoom-in to read the text. Never had to do that on the Evo.
If the Evo had a slide-out keyboard version, I'd probably go with that. But since it doesn't exist, I'll be keeping the Epic. Overall, I'm pretty happy with my purchase. Every phone has it's pluses and minuses. Right now, the Epic is the best phone for me.
