How are folks feeling about the build quality? It seems to have a similar build quality to the HTC Incredible on Verizon. I ask because people had said the Incredible felt somewhat cheap and plastic. How is the EVO in this sense?
 
to me it kinda feels like a motorola droid without the slider. Very sturdy with a kinda metallic feel to it
 
I only held one in the store and it felt much better than the Incredible, which feels anything but incredible.
 
The incredible looks and feels like a toy. Too small.

The evo is the most sturdy, classy phone i've ever held.
 
It has a solid feel to me. So did the Hero too. Feels better than the display that they had attatched to a tether in the store.
 
The incredible is, well, incredibly light. I think that's what gives it a cheap feel.
The build of the Evo is rock solid and its Quite heavy that makes it feel like the proverbial brick.
 
The only thing I don't like about my Evo is the button backlight bleed at the bottom edge. Does the Incredible do that as well?
 
I just took my case off to check, I'm in the dark, and I have no bleed through at all.
Try want yourdogsdead said.
 
I would swap that phone out for a new one. Some of them have the bleed while others do not.

I might do that. The bleed isn't a deal breaker, but if there are units that don't have the issue, then it is worth rolling the dice on a replacement. I just hope it doesn't have other issues like dead pixels or something. lol

What is this, a Pre? lol jk

I do one a Pre though, it has been good to me.
 
I had the Incredible for a week and the build quality was not as good as the EVO, the camera lense came off on the Incredible
 
I have the bleed through issue on my EVO as well, not a big issue if it starts to bother me i'll exchange it on tghe 28th day, I'm not gonna have any luck getting 1 now
 
The back of the not-so-Incredible looks like ass! This phone looks and feels great! My Hero seems so small now. Im giving that to my daughter. She hates her BB Curve.
 
If anyone is saying the build quality is less than a++ is nuts.. I've owned quite a lot of phones and this has such a phenomenal solid feel...
