What Sprint Android phone should I get?
My 2 year contract is up with Sprint, and I'm looking to upgrade my phone. I like my Sprint 4g Evo, but it's showing its age. Either way, I figure I'm paying phone rates for a subsidized phone, so I might as well upgrade... and I'll admit it's a luxury I enjoy anyway and am willing to spend some money on right now. I'm invested into the Android architecture (applications primarily) and don't have much interest in going to an iPhone right now.
I'm not sure which phone to get... should I wait for the Samsung Galaxy III (And who knows when that will be on the sprint network), or get the HTC EVO LTE? Or something else?
Thanks to my fellow wooters for your advice and suggestions!
Forget droid (negative rating ensue), buy apple, phone, pad, and stock!
I was eligable for an upgrade this past December. Rather than drop 200 bucks on a new phone (I was looking at the Galaxy S2) I decided to keep my Epic 4G. It's still almost as good as anything out there plus it's a slider.
@allhighruler: Yeah if you read the question you'd have seen right now I just don't have an interest in going to an Apple phone, reasons being I've invested into the droid architecture (read: apps), it would be foolish to buy a new iPhone with a new design on the way, and I also don't like how Apple does things. But thanks for making it clear you don't like reading things.
@hottubrf: sooo... I guess, how does that answer my question? I must have missed something in reading that...
Get the Evo LTE. Just as good of hardware as the HTC One X line.. it should last just as long as the original Evo itself.. I'm still using my Evo!
@figgers3036: Oh no, I read your comment. I just don't like androids. They're buggy, cr*ppy phones. I mean, I love the workman ship of the iPhone 4s. That glass body just makes it feel expensive. That antennae that makes it feel like a heavy duty phone. If your worried about apps, I mean, common. What's spending an extra $50 to get them all on the iPhone app store? I have spent more than $300 on apps (not including music). I would much prefer the iPhone. And to all you people who down vote comments that support apple, get a life. The voting is for the review and how the person expresses themselves. If you have a problem with it, LEAVE A COMMENT.
@allhighruler: I'm already spending $200 on a phone, I don't really want to spend more on top of that for the Apple premium, especially considering a new one is slated to be out at the end of the summer anyway. It would be a wildly foolish purchase, and it's obvious you came just to bomb the question, not to actually answer it. That's kind of rude when I was actually looking for advice on an Android phone.
@druke: Yeah same with my old 4g Evo. This is the direction I was leaning but I was wondering what everyone else was thinking too. Thanks for the advice!
@figgers3036: They still offer the Epic 4G at a good price.
@figgers3036: Fine, the only phone that I can bear to recommend thats not apple is (uhhhgggg) The samsung Galaxy S III
