so, using craigslist, i was able to find a seller to purchase an Evo. trade old phone+small cash amount=Great Deal.
skeptical? yes. but everything checked out--and Sprint confirmed clean ESN and i was up and running within minutes...
i was initially worried about the fps cap and some of the rumors about the phone---but holy crap was i in for a shock.
this phone is AWESOME!
*HTC Sense--wow. what have i been missing!? most people don't like it, but coming from a phone like Samsung, i love it. awesome.
*GPS--sooooo much better than the Moment.
*screen size--good gosh this thing is perfect for videos and photots.
*web browsing---compared to the Moment, i now consider my previous browsing experience as limited. THIS is the real internet--pinch to zoom, large text, and flash! i feel like i went from internet explorer 5 to Chrome.
battery--eh, as expected. the 3500mAh battery from amazon will be my best friend.
*$10 premium data charge==REEEAALLLLY not as controversial as everyone says--it's an extra bit of staying at work here or there, and it's paid for. it's worth it--just pay it. (and if you root, then it's really worth it).
seriously. i was worried about this phone while playing with it @ a sprint store. but when you actually get one to use on your own time and around town--it's unfreaking believable.
i used to read these forums and think everyone was just on the Evo-Hype.
boy was i wrong. it's founded/grounded/confirmed enthusiasm.
wow.
