recent update puts the photon on a different level! !!

I'm not seeing the lower $100.00 price with the photon. but I think that we can all agree that the evo3d is out selling the photon about 10 to 1.

At Best Buy the Photon is $99, the Evo 3D is $199. I was at a Sprint store the Friday following the Photon launch and they had sold 2 Photons in that time. All this is pointless to me, I can see myself with the E3D for a *long* time.

I see myself keeping this phone longer than my usual few months. I use this thing way more than my netbook. I have it all right here in the palm of my hand.

There both great phones. I don't see too much difference in them other than the 3d part (gives me a headache ). I have found the photon has better radios than the evo 3d but its not a huge difference if your in an area with good to ok signal. I'm not going to lie I'm not a huge fan of ether display after coming from the nexus s. The evo probably has the edge but not much. I would love to see an android phone with Motorola radios, samsung screen and vanilla android! It was a tough decision between the evo and photon but because i was coming from a nexus s 4g that could not hold a signal if i was standing under a Sprint tower i decided on the photon and have been vary happy. I think i would have been happy with ether!

that is just it...while the radios on the EVO3D "may" be not as good as a motorola, it can be almost too hard to tell the differance in real life. upload and download speeds are the same, signal strenth is about the same, and so on. now samsung on the other hand, all I hear is bad radios in most of their phones, but what do I know.

but if you are clearly in a bad area, don't expect the photon to work some magic. even with a strong radio, you may just wind up roaming like everyone else.

Go and trade that piece of crap Evolution and get the newly updated photon ...it fixed all issues being only 2 really and now the phone is blaaaaaaaaazing fast!!!!!!
