The next EVO - What do you want it to have?

I've heard Sprint has been sending out invites for CES, and the HTC Zeta is wild rumored to be some some of EVO succesor. What'd you like it to be named, and what features will fancy you?

Not gonna happen at this rate sprint will not ever be getting another phone! Look at it the only high end phone they have now is the galaxy s2
However verizon gets like a new phone every week! I wanna switch but the plans are so expensive on big red! And no unlimited data!
Hopefully they will catch backup and give us some new phones! I have an upgrade waiting for the first quad core or the galaxy nexus

Like the OG Evo,
It should have the best statistical hardware,
which will allow an extended usable lifespan,
with minimal/NO gimmickery (3D etc),
The hardware should be ample to handle multiple generations of OS updates.

As for me I want
2GB RAM, 4GB ROM
1.8 GHz Quad Core
10MP cam with 3MP front facing
Optional 4G
Optional Stock or HTC Sense
720p - Retina Display like
Ice Cream Sandwich
I'd name it the HTC EVO Fusion?
I dunno...

The iPhone is just a simple phone with iOS. Not that revolutionary, + all Apple wants is marketshare. I'm pretty sure Google wants it too, but Apple should have gone to all carriers in the first place...Apple's screwed themselves.

Well I surprisingly reversed my burn in.
Anyway amoled non pentile is coming in due time. Samsung couldn't yet make full rgb at such a high pixel density...yet. but it will get there soon. Just look at the time line for their previous development from amoled to plus, and extrapolate that time.

I want at least 8mp camera, 2GB RAM, 1.5GHz Quad Core, much better GPU, microSD support, higher capacity battery and a non-pentile display (I would prefer LCD2 but its Samsung)

Thanks. Knew there were more. Figured the first 2 were enough.

I want the full Google experience:
Google fiber rolled out to major cities as network backbone for Nexus flagship devices. Pentaband still present for use on GSM networks with 100 mins and 100mb per month for GSM roaming included. Google voice and SIP used for voice on fiber network.
More realistically:
-16gb storage is fine, but Google experience phones are also granted 20gb on Google Drive.
-Nexus available on Play Store within 2 weeks of announcement. No carrier lock. Same $399 price.
-Super Amoled+ HD
-better GPU
-Wireless charging or at least car and desk docks with functional 3-pin at launch
-Dual core, or quad core with Ubuntu for Android
-Application settings and data auto backed up
and restored using Google Drive (especially game data)
-Air play like functionality
-Better voice control

Only three things: better camera, MicroSD slot and please, don't make it bigger! Bigger isn't = better. Just take a look at Galaxy Note adds, only elephants can use it :-( I don't want to carry a tablet in my pocket every day.

Everything is just about perfect. I would love to see higher premium build material and larger battery. Dual core SoC and Pentile screen I can live with.

micro sd slot, better gpu, better camera, tegra 3 or better, better battery, and most importantly, please google find a company that has better build quality than samsung like motorola or htc (and if possible waterproff)

The feature to auto delete duplicate threads like this one . Also the feature that makes you use search before you post .

It was mentioned... just didn't read =P
- Google

Still don't understand the need for 2gb of ram on a phone. There is no app that utilizes that, no arm processor manly enough to thrash 2gb of ram and it's just a battery suck just to have 2gb of ram. The I need my this or that instantly just doesn't justify keeping bigger ram in a phone for the battery drain and almost instantaneous output for a .5 second gain. This is one of those things where efficiency of software, hardware and better I/o from storage need to be hammered down. The whole 2gb of ram thing is just ludicrous for a handheld. Much bigger gains are to be had from discrete gpu ram and faster storage. And those cost more money and suck battery too. But while we're making corny wish lists gddr5 ram and ssd in the next phone. And octo core. Why stop at 4 even though there is no use for it? And just to blow it out I don't want a battery on my next phone. Just terminal leads for a 12volt I can carry in a back pack. That way it solves the whole non/removeable battery thing in one fell swoop, the phone will be lighter and and can accommodate all our ludicrous technology wants. Or is it needs?
Dear Santa, I really like what we have. Id be happy with an a15 dual core, sgx543mp2 and all the other accoutrements omap chip sets have and an SD card slot in the jelly bean phone debut. I was a really good boy this year I promise. Love spanky.
let it be.

[DISCUSSION] New Nexus Device?

I have been discussing the expectations of the next Nexus device with Qbking77 and other ACS members.
Have any of you heard any news or even rumors of the next Nexus device?
Also, what are your expectations of a new Nexus phone? Including:
-Screen specs
-Internal specs
-Etc;
Input would be GREATLY appreciated on this! Thanks guys!

I think is going to be another Samsung phone. That's what I read, that google had chosen them again.
I also heard that we were going to see 5 Nexus phones but I highly doubt it.
I will probably be a quadcore but i don't really see anything wrong if they go dual core, maybe same screen size or a small bump to 4.8 to be along the lines of the Galaxy S3. 2gb or Ram and improves screen, possibly still pentile technology, which i don't mind to be honest. A 8mp improved camera.
I hope they use this OMAP processor or Exynos. Something completely open source for easy hacks and tweaks.

i havent heard new rumors for the next nexus apart from 5 nexuses rumors..
and my expectations for the next nexus following todays android phone footprint:
- made by samsung (again)
- 4.65 to 5 inch HD SAMOLED screen (with + maybe?)
- TI OMAP 5 processor
- 1 gb of memory..
- 16/32 gb internal storage (no external memory)
- 8 megapixel + FF camera
- curved glass screen
- notification light
- NFC
- possibly with android 5.0
and im hoping they will make only unlocked version..

Well I know that Google said they we're releasing 5 "devices" which the first two were the Nexus 7 and that Q thing...
But yeah, I hope it is Samsung too. I hope to see a thinner device as well. I mean the Gnex is thin but nothing like the RAZR! My father has one and I can't believe how incredibly thin it is!
As far as the innards, your right... It's gotta be quad core...

I've stopped caring about bleeding edge and have started caring about what Google cares about for their Nexus devices. A collection of hardware and software that not only "just works" but does so while giving a fantastic, great performing, and stable user experience.
Love my Galaxy Nexus and when upgrade time comes I'll continue to buy whatever they have up their sleeve, regardless of who they choose to have manufacture it.
Google IMO knows their ****.

Motorola RAZR thinness maybe... But knowing their reputation with Motoblur I doubt they would let Google get away with a device without it...
But YES the build quality of a Motorola would feel slightly better than the plasticity of the Nexus devices in the past...
Let's all cross our fingers! Lolz.

I enjoy the 4.65" screen but I think it's still pushing it. I sincerely hope it doesn't get any bigger than it already is, but I know plenty of people would beg to differ.

As long as the next one has softkey's I wouldn't mind a slightly larger screen due to the fact that the keys take up screen space...
But 5" would be WAY too much... I would never get a Galaxy Note for that reason...

A better battery it's all I want

I don't care if the screen gets larger as long as they go longer rather than wider again like they did with this one.

I say Google will put more ram like 2gn, to not be overshadowed by the s3 or iPhone 5. I also think a bigger screen, more memory(a lot of people have been complaining maybe they listen), and hopefully omap 5.

not a single rom/apps harness the entire 1gb of memory until now, even most costum rom builders here are always keeping their rom memory friendly.. so really theres no point having over 2gb of memory beside spec sheet show-off..
also, smartphone screens caps at 5 inch max imo.. above that would be galaxy note territory.. and i dont think nexuses would compete with note..

Here's what I wish next nexus has:
4-4.6' super amoled HD/plus/super LCD.
latest TI omap/ other powerful processor
16/32 GB storage for international version!
8/12 MP + other hardware features/Low light..etc
1+ GB RAM
battery life Razor MAxx or S3. 3.8V battery
build quality like One X or Razor. as thin as S3/One X.
I wish there are many nexus devices with various screen size. For me 4 inch screen is the best size....

Replacing my arc.

Hey guys so I've been wanting to get a new phone. So far I'm looking at nexus 4/note 2/one x+.
I'm looking for a quad core phone.
Any ideas? Suggestions?
So far I've been advised to wait until january to get a new phone. Or use windows 8 phones. Any ideas?
Sent from my LT15i using xda app-developers app

Its too late for the Nexus 4 cause google wont send it until January, the note 2 is fast but the build materials are bad(cheap plastic), to me looks like the best choice is the One X+...
So you have to wait for the great N4(I have one) or get a HOX+ that is also a great phone
Windows Phone is a joke, you cant even share things by bluetooth

HTC DNA? Apparently it's the best phone.
Sent from my LT18i using xda app-developers app

DNA doesnt have storage expansion. damn.. so many choices. note 2 looks to be the best choice with the cheap plastic aside. note 2 also has a lower pixel density. dna wins at front facing camera but with only 16gb built in its not enough. onex+ has only 1gb ram.
anyone know any other phones with large storage/expansion, quad core, 2gb ram?

Hmmm, 16gb should be enough for everything. But, I guess the note 2 is the best for you.
Sent from my LT18i using xda app-developers app

Well the LG Optimus G have 32Gb, 12mp camera, quadcore s4 pro, 2Gb RAM, also gets the highest benchmarks score than any other phone

I have a Nexus 4. It's fast but 4.7" is *almost* too big for my small girlish hands and the camera isn't particularly great. I think my arc S took much better pictures tbh.
If I was going to buy a new device tomorrow I'd probably try one of these:
http://www.reghardware.com/2012/11/19/review_acer_cloud_mobile_android_handset/
It's an Acer S500. Yes, I'd never heard about their phones either but I really like the design of this, the screen is absolutely amazing, it's nearly stock Android (tweaked lock screen and notification bar and that's about it), it has a removable battery and a microSD card slot. It's only dual-core though but in the videos I've seen it looks pretty fast. But I have no idea if Acer are any good or not.
I just can't get excited about HTC phones.

Probably around May to Oct.

you can probably expect the next Nexus 7 tablet in May at Google I/O, and the next nexus 10 and Nexus phone in late October/early november.

October/November - that's when you expect it ... there are ALREADY rumors about the next one, supposedly called LG Nexus 5 - there's even a picture and some of the spec scheet ... 5.2" 1080p display, 3 GB of RAM, Snapdragon 800, 16 MP camera with 4k video recording, 32/64 gb storage, 3300 mAh battery ... Hell, even if HALF of theese specs are true - it's gonna be a killer phone!
