I love how the screen takes up the whole phone, and no big ugly bezels, looks sleek and thin.

Bezel = frame surrounding the screen. Like on monitors the black plastic casing around the LCD, or the iPhone, the huge black part above and below the screen.

Ohh ha the iPhone. You're always holding it wrong hahaha got love CM FAX.

I dunno....but looking at the picture, it seems there is a bezel.

Still a frame but that thing is pushing those edges.
Phone is total sex.

ahh so this is the phone you mentioned to me i have a feeling this is the evo 2

I hope it's not, I think it's ugly. looks like a big hero/nexus thing.

Might be the Evo 3D. Makes sense. A pyramid is a 3 dimensional geometric shape. And those specs are similar to the Optimus 3D, so it should have powerful enough hardware to do it. Hmmm... Now, I'm kind of excited for CTIA.

It's supposed to go to TMOBILE but hopefully it goes to sprint, it's a nice ass phone.

This. It is a GSM phone and supposedly destined for TMO. Sprint is CDMA so it will not work on Sprint's network.

I've got friends and T-Mobile and their internal communications confirm that this is coming to T-Mobile but there is some confusion that it might be a multiple-standard phone (eg, GSM+CMDA) so it might come to Sprint all at the same time.

pyramid
i want this phone already.hoping and wishing and from what ive been reading going to tmobile. t mobile has to get this phone..my touch 4g is good and all but just isnt great. sprint got the evo and now the inspire for at&t and thunderbolt for verizon..i think it would be great for tmobile like it was for sprint basically attracting new customers to the carrier for the phone(evo)..ive been waiting for a phone like this and i hope it comes with tmobile

Whatever happens, I just hope Sprint gets something as slick looking as this, and of course with the awesome specs to top it all off. I love my Evo to death, but I wouldn't mind upgrading when my rebate comes up in July

Looks = +1
Specs = +2
Phone to tmobile = -4

Confirmed version headed to sprint.....with 3d!
sent from a terminal in the NIGHTLANDS.......

It's possible.
See: Android Central's article on Sprint's expected announcements for CTIA.
(Can't post links, as account is too new.)
Guess Tuesday can't come soon enough.

Would you upgrade your ET4G to this phone? SHV-E120L

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my Epic Touch 4G and would definitely buy Samsung again. I have to say I would consider upgrading to his phone if Sprint got it (a CDMA version) within the next year -

http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/21/samsung-shv-e120l-comes-out-of-the-development-dark-is-the-xtin/
dual-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 4.7-inch 1280 x 720 HD display, 2 megapixel front-facing / 8 megapixel rear camera, 1GB RAM, 16GB of onboard storage, WiFi, Bluetooth and NFC.
Yes, there is always something better coming and this is the only phone I would think about.

It looks like a good phone and the specs suggest the phone should be pretty awesome, but I don't see myself going away from the ET4G any time soon. The development is just starting and who knows what could be made out of this phone. It's good enough as is to compete with any phone so who knows what kind of performance we could see with stable roms/kernels/tweaks etc. The 4.52 inch screen is just the perfect size imo. Anything bigger might as well be considered a tablet.

I don't really need to go much bigger than 4.5 - but 4.7 would still be just fine for me. The 1280 x 720 resolution would be sweet though. The processor on the ET4G is GREAT so going to 1.5 isn't a big deal for me. I don't really care about the NFC that phone will have so for me it really comes down to the higher res and I think the 4.7" screen will actually be the perfect size for me. That would be about as big as I could go and still do 1 handed typing.

I don't even think the proc is even a upgrade. Maybe even a downgrade.
My next phone will have to come with jellybean on the OS. Otherwise I will have nice hardware running on aged software. With Samsung don't expect anything more than what is in the box.

I'm hearing rumors the ET4G won't support EVDO rev B. If this new phone supports it, for me that would easily justify my next upgrade.

I won't be jumping to that with that CPU in there. It will be slower than the ET4G for sure.

Im perfectly fine with the ET4G for a good while.

right. adding GHz wont help an inferior GPU.
Mail-400 is a beast. There is an article explaining why the Tmobile version, even though clocked at 1.5GHz, wont be better than the exynos. Im sure it will still be a good phone, but ill take exynos over snapdragon ANY day.
if sprint did get it, the only reason id consider it would be because of the enhanced resolution as long as it was a super amoled+ or better, other than that this is my dream device

Throw in a quad core exynos processor and then we'll talk. The Epic Touch is almost perfect.

on top of that, a9 architecture is much better than a8. snapdragon cores are heavily modified a8's, but still wont beat an a9

I will say coming from the EVO 3D to the Epic Touch 4G I didn't really notice a speed difference. I don't play video games on my phone so maybe that is important for some people. I think sense can probably have an impact on perceived speed/smoothness.
I will say if the ET4G doesn't support EVDO rev. B, the network speed would be far, far more important to me.

[Q] will there be a good replacement in 2012?

I love my phone but it.s getting a little old
i hope they will release a new good qwerty phone this year.
my wishlist is
bigger screen amoled, it doesn't bother me with the size
better hinges
more power, a real top of the line phone, with hoppefully the same overclocking capability
hdmi out for emulatorgaming
better and faster camera, the focus suxs
and a thick phone with a decent battery, none of this ultrathin crap
ARE THERE ANY PLANS THIS YEAR FOR SUCH A PHONE?

Na, like with the desire z, i'll just wait until the first blond 14 year old girl buys it and then don't know how to use it, buys a iphone instead then sell it to me for little or nothing
I payed 210usd for this last year, almost new :0
(Tapatalk, phone)

I'm also wanting to upgrade this yyear, probably going to get an android tablet next month, in which case, if there isn't a decent phone similar to this by july, ill wait for an iphone 5

the droid 4 looks like they have the right idea, but its to thin, and i dont like when they waste so much space on the front, no need for buttons,
and i dont like when they make some parts of a phone thin and others thick.

bigger screen, bigger battery and this would be mine

As I've said in numerous identical threads, get the MyTouch 4G Slide. We have overclock, our ROMs are mostly Sense-free with CM9 around the corner, and there is no hinge problem.

I don't think mytouch lineup is even available here.. its ugly anyway. Droid 4 would be the phone to get atm, but i'm fine whit DZ for a year more @least..
For more power i'm getting android tablet once the new ones come out. Probably transformer prime, but first, i want to see whats the Lenovo tegra 3 tablet. I would like a proper stylus enabled tablet.

The MT4GS is less than five months old and still a top-of-the-line device that's beaten the Galaxy Nexus in an Antutu benchmark test.

Should I buy the Evo 4g ?

I was wondering if I should buy the evo 4g. I have the evo 3d but do not want \ use the 3d features. I also am looking for a phone I can unlock fully. The Evo 3d is stuck on HBOOT 1.5 and S-on. I think the site below has my answer but I'm checking with you for your experiences. The general idea is to trade or sell \ buy a new evo 4g. thanks!

I have used the mentioned steps with success in downgrading the HBOOT on a EVO OG. I too have a 3D with HBOOT 1.50, unlocked & flashed. I rarely use the 3D aspect of it, except as a parlor trick for my 3D deficient friends. I bought the 3D mainly for the hardware specs(which are being quickly subdued).

I love my Evo, but with other phones on the market now..i wouldn't but it.

Yeah, I was also looking at the hardware when I got it. I figured the 3d was just a good bonus. I still like the phone just want to have an unlocked one for ICS and all the changes coming.

For me, going from the 4g to the 3d was a BIG step up, the processor is WAY faster. I couldn't imagine going from the 3d to the 4g.

The 3D is slated to have ICS availble for it sometime in Q1. No need to root/unlock. If you wish to not wait, use HTCDEV method to unlock and flash via fastboot. Once, the source programming for he 3D is readily available, customs will follow! As stated I have a 3D and flash the heck out of it, even with HBOOT 1.50. Good luck! I would advise not buying a EVO OG. Sprint buyback program is only offering $90 for an OG, pay more than that and you're upside down!

You see what i use don't you?VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV the best phone i ever owned!

Whatever you do.. Dont be the guy that got a great deal online only to find out the previous owner had a large unpaid balance and that large unpaid balance was tied to the specific EVO 4G. It was either he or the previous owner who had to pay the unpaid balance before activation. That so-called great deal turned out a nightmare.

true dat my evo is gonna be come a real nice android based mp3 player / maybe just a voip phone or something

Good GOD the camera on this is AMAZING!

I timed the burst function and it'll take TWENTY pictures (have burst mode enabled and hold down the camera on-screen button) in about THREE SECONDS!
And every time I tap that on-screen button it'll take a picture INSTANTLY! My old Moto Droids got nothing on this!

yeah no shutter lag its great

Coming from the HTC evo im not suprised.... Evo had a way better camera =~(

Samsung's cameras have usually been pretty good for me.

Had the Touch Pro 2, the camera sucked lol....

1st panaorama

The Touch Pro took much better pictures than the Touch Pro 2 and the EVO 4G (EVO 4G's camera sucked!). EVO 3D's camera is good, and the GS3 and GNII have even better cameras. Not sure about the EVO LTE, but I'm sure it's as good or better than the EVO 3D's camera.

The EVO 4G had a pretty decent camera in good light. Night pics totally sucked as the flash white washed them terribly. The EVO 3D's poor camera was the main reason I got rid of it.
