No front-facing camera?! Pass!
Sure, the specs are nice, but by Feb. 2011, that's going to be the norm.

Samsung trying to fail with that one button crap. Whenever I use a iPhone now, I rage at the lack of search key.
What does this have to do with the Evo?
Why is it running MIUI?..

It's a fake!
Mismatched specs and the photoshop on that ad is terrible, my 3yr old could do better. In one spot it says 4.3" screen, and the other says 4.5" Also the redundant duplication of the specs listed, fake!
I smell lawsuit from apple maybe? That is a total rip off imho.

As with any Samsung phone the specs on paper make the phone look superior, but real world usage the phone fails. Yea front facing camera should be standard in 2011.
Hoax or not, its ugly, and does look like a iPhone wannabe. Fanboys will just look at you and laugh if your caught holding that. BTW why is this posted in an EVO forum?

I would assume that its because the OP has an Evo. Also, probably because this phone doesn't exist therefor it doesn't have a forum leaving the poster to post where he/she normally does. Where do you suggest this be posted?

I got my One X today man this thing is nice.
I was an Inspire owner too and I remember you used to rule that forum. I am shocked that you left for iPhone! I moved onto the Galaxy Nexus when it came out and sold off the Inspire. I had an upgrade available now so there is no way I could pass this phone up... I love the phone but do miss the stock feeling of Android 4.0 so now all I really need is Root and CM9!
I remember you from the Inspire forums. I switched to the Note then the Nexus, now I can upgrade and I may get the One X. Good to see people attempting iPhone and regretting it, so I don't have to. The reason I'm maybe thinking of the One X is the camera, I'm going on holiday and don't want to be stuck taking GNex quality shots along the coast of Italy lol.

Just left my international GSII for this bad boy. (The GSII was the best phone ever btw). Freaking loving the screen and the sick build quality. It's so much better than Samsung's crap plastic
I too took a detour through some Sammys (The other phone at home is always iP - a conscious decision that works well ), Great to be back to HTC.
SGS2 was great for that generation, but LTE/batt life sucked and was a bit clunky (I have large hands), so wasted no time in getting my H1X.

The GPS is why I ditched my Inspire. I do a lot of things that use the GPS (mapping / running / cycling). That GPS would not stay locked and would turn a 5 mile run into a 15 mile run with all of the zig zags it would add to my course. Great for the Ego, but a pain in the A$$ otherwise.
To Answer your question the HOX is lightning fast to lock and stays locked pretty well from what I can tell. I have not used it with a gps app other than google maps yet but I am happy with what i have seen so far.

That's my main beef with the iPhone...who wants their phone to look the exact same 5 years from now?? I just find it boring as hell. And WAY too thick.
You know what's funny about Apple though, they fight tooth and nail to get Android off the shelves and say their software is the key point of their pitch but they neglect to mention all of Googles' features they use on a regular basis for one when you search for anything on an apple device it uses Google, can't blame them there right.
Now their saying their new 3d maps are going to beat Googles Maps but G Maps has been in beta for a few years now, they know what works and what doesn't but if Apple wants to give it a go then it should be interesting.
I'll stick with this device, there will always be something wrong somewhere with anything some one has, nothing is perfect otherwise there wouldn't be competitors.

That's the way it's headed anyway...Google is about to blow the provider model out of the water with their next gen Nexus devices (which should even put your mighty gen1 Nexus to shame), working directly with more manufacturers and selling directly to consumers. And I can't wait...I think they'll be doing all us Android users a big favor, longterm.
Apple really good in steal ideal and make it better than the original one. if you look at notification bar on iphone, it's really nice and i think it does better job than our android notification. I also like their notification badge/alert/ pop up for message/mail/FB... Still i can get popup app from play store but i want some thing that come from the operating system itself... I takes android phone because it's open, not because it better than iphone.
Yeap...open source FTW!!

I will not flame you or anything but id suggest trying a site like craigslist in order to get a trade. Its kind of hard to trade an Iphone on an android site you know?

Not to mention its XDA. All I used to see was douches all over these forums. The guy who said "Hurp durpy shouldn't be here", ok still no need to just talk **** at the guy. First of all its just a phone, their not important whatsoever. Just because we are Android users doesn't mean we go on hating every Iphone user. Their are some that *gasp* are not fanboys of their crappy products.
I'll do it pm me. The gs3 is a little laggy for my taste and the ui is very cluttered and cartoonish. I prefer the smootheness of iOS and perfect synchronization across products. Also this phone feels way too cheap, like its a toy. Screen is really nice though, but then again so is the iPhones but just a little smaller.

Now to see how far HTC pushes the ITC...
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/09/10/apple_htc_patent/
For those that don't want to click, HTC is seeking to ban the iPhone 5 in the US due to the fact that HTC owns 2 patents relating to connecting a device to a 4G or LTE network.
Realistically, they'll probably just use it as leverage against Apple for something else rather than have an all out ban on importing the devices; but it will be interesting to see the result.
For the phone specifically...I agree *yawn*. 4 inch screen, big deal. 5 icon rows, whoopie... Absolutely nothing new in that department.
Sammy is also gonna strike at apple with its 12% of the world's LTE patents

Whoopie? Really? 5 icon rows may seem like no big thing to you but I'll have you know that Apple has a patent on the number "5". So nobody has the right to use 5's without Apple's permission.

According to the articles I've read about the HTC case the only thing they've done (for that specific case) is ask the judge to invalidate the patents...

Agreed, the S3 was the same. nothing exciting
I was a little late to the smart phone era. The main thing that got me to the iPhone a while back was the fact that you could jailbreak it. At the time, in my opinion, and personal knowledge, Apple iOS had the apps and the features that I wanted in my professional and personal life. Since then, the manufactures, developers and community like this forum have taken the high end android based phones far pass anything Apple could put out. I want to break my phone so I can get a SIII or something just to keep testing out all the awesome things coming out. Keep up the work guys!

I'm givin' her all she's got, Cap'n!
But seriously, when (if?) there's an S4, it really does need to be a significant upgrade from the S3. Why spend all that money for a new phone just to get a little bit more RAM, a little bit faster processor, and a few other very minute improvements? I was ready to sell my SR to get an S3 just before they announced it, but I decided not too because it was so underwhelming. Based on today and *trying to be a reasonable individual* I think that, compared to the jump from SR to S3, the iPhone 4S to iPhone 5 is a pretty good upgrade.
