I am going to be getting an android phone and I have some time on my existing contract. I like the EVO 3d but am wondering what your opinions are about waiting for the galaxy s2 LTE? I called Rogers today and they said they have no idea when it is coming out. I think over all the EVO seems like a great phone but I don't care about 3d so thats not an issue.
Your opinions would be great
Your American cousin from the U.S. says: Yes!
up to you, since you posted in the evo 3d forum, im gonna say get the evo 3d.
NOPE!!! We all hate it! (sarcasm)
Just playin'... I have personally played with an SGS2 and a Thrill plus my wife has the Evo 4G. Also my wife had the Inspire and I had an Atrix on AT&T. I would never trade my 3D for any of them.
Just my opinion though. Do what you like best.

You don't tell it, you must use buttons....Duh...
Over this past two months. I own the Photon, Galaxy S II, and the Evo 3D. Here is a quick rundown of what I like/dislike about each phone
Photon Pros: Tremendous battery life, extremely great signal, Great Camera
Cons:Screen seems "pixelated" but I got use to it. Better in sunlight than the Evo 3D, NO DEVELOPER SUPPORT as of now(This is a big no no for me)
Galaxy S II Pros: 4.5" screen Sprint's version, Best looking screen but the resolution made all the icons look big, screen is great in sunlight. Light weight and thin, battery life
Cons:No developer support as of now, back cover is plastic
Evo 3D Pros: 3D camera I really only use it to watch Youtube clips in 3D. Great Developer support which is a big big plus for me since I constantly need to flash different roms
Cons: worst 2d Camera out of the three. It's not horrible but it's just avg and not good like the Photon or great like the Galaxy S II, battery life is avg I usually get 14 hours out of it before it completely drain
Hope this helps and for your info I just switch back to the Evo 3D today because the Evo 3D has the best developer support out of all the phones!!!!
I'm coming from a Nexus one and currently using an international sensation (w/ edge speeds only ) and am looking for new phone b/c I can't take the slow speeds anymore. I'm mainly trying to decide between the HTC Amaze and HTC sensation 4g, but open to other phones as well.
I haven't personally used the Amaze before, so I figure it would be a good idea to ask you all for your personal opinions of why you chose the Amaze. I generally prefer the HTC build quality over that of Galaxy S2's. However, the sensation seems sleeker than the Amaze and is a more popular phone, which means more development activity (also, I read something about how Tmobile is taking it off their shelves but keeping the sensation..??). On the other hand, the Amaze has 42mbps data capabilities while sensation is only 14.4 or something =/.
Well I cannot say for certain whether max data speed has much affect on average speeds or not but max I've gotten on my amaze is about 13mb/s but anything above 5 is pretty good imo. Now as far as preferences... I like the feel and sleek design of the sensation much better, it felt better without a case or anything but I was always paranoid without it having a case and I had dust under the screen a lot... I've had possession of about 4 sensations and no matter what rom I ran. The amaze was smoother and faster out of the box. That's saying a lot imo and the camera is great in my opinion. This phone also seems more consistent and less prone to issues. That's just my 2 cents

If you care for custom roms, the Amaze is not for you. Frankly, the ones available suck, if you're looking to ditch Sense. They still have large elements of sense remaining.
But if you don't care... the Amaze is a nice phone. Good build quality with an amazing camera.
go with the amaze if you want the upgraded camera, HSPA+, and the increase in RAM + CPU.
go with the sensation if you want more dev support, and the increase in battery standby time.
i've never seen 42mbps personally, but i often reach 20 mbps on 4g.
imho you can't go wrong either way.
First of all, if you care about speed which location are you on.. it all depends where you are or how the draft of 4g is on your place.. yeah they say it @42 mbps but in reality you can't reach that speed.. again it depends on your location for the speed..
The Amaze has a 25% faster processor, 33% more RAM, 4 times the internal storage (16GB vs 4GB), an NFC chip, dedicated camera and camcorder buttons, a wider aperture F2.2 camera lens, a better front camera (2 MPix vs VGA), supports HSPA+ 42, 802.11a WiFi (in addition to b/g/n), and AT&T's UMTS freqs in addition to T-Mobile's.
best ive ever gotten on my amaze is ~9 mb, but then again, it all depends on network load, signal strength etc. if youre rom flasher, the only thing youll miss is lack of roms. hopefully that will change soon, im already sick of bloated ass sense...
Former Nexus one user
Having owned the nexus one and now the amaze I can see where you're coming from. If you like the size of the sensation, then the amaze should feel perfect for you. I think its a little too big, but it seems like it's impossible to get a phone with decent specs that isn't gigantic. But here's just a quick overview:
The camera software on the Amaze, is just simply spectacular.
Amaze has some pretty sweet download speeds I think I've hit like 13-17 a few times.
Better specs that the Sensation.
I think both the sensation and amaze were posted as being end of life phones over on the tmonews site. If you can wait a little longer maybe you can hold out til the HTC Ville comes out.
i just got my htc amaze and let me you man, i do not regret getting it at all! its amazing! its so fast! and hopefully X will get ICS to work for our phones!
Both are great phones, the only thing IMO the Sensation has over the Amaze is OVERWHELMING Dev support

This is the only advantage Sensation has over the Amaze. The Amaze wins in every other regard. Faster, better hardware specs, awesome camera and nicer screen. That said, Bulletproof ROM is quite nice and I can't wait for ICS to hit.
I also come from Nexus One and I absolutely believe Amaze is HTC's best phone to date. Nexus One was fantastic and Amaze is a worthy sucessor. Of course, it you want to wait, I'm sure HTC One X with its quad core will be great as well.

Maybe a good poll idea? The Nexus One will always have a soft spot in my heart too. It's the OG in my book. The MT4G in my opinion may still be the best phone. I get same speeds running CoreDroid (which is a sense ROM btw) on MT4G as I do with my Amaze and it's a single core CPU. I do love my Amaze though. More pleasing to the eyes, and a bigger screen. Not to mention the AMAZING camera

I do believe thats because gingerbread doesnt fully support dual core
Sensation is only good for its dev support. But its also bad because you won't make up your mind on which ROM to use because there are so many of them!
Go with the AMAZE...once ICS and CM9 comes, dev support should pick up really fast.

They would be here by now. Unless XBoarder and Binary get it cracked, I don't see CM coming over. And the task at hand is a mighty tall task. Enjoy the devs we have, they're all we got.

im bringing our own ics over they will come people or i will just have to make 10 user accounts to be 10 dif devs lol
okay, so i also have been looking to upgrade to an amaze. my last android phone was the mt4g, i traded that for a hd7 to try windows phone as i had gotten a little tired of the current batch of roms that were around and my screen was dying. i am not a fan of sense, i really would never use it, which is driving me away from this phone. is there any chance of an aosp rom in the future, cm7/9, anything non sense. i have read your reasons for why its better than the sensation 4g, and while i would love to have a god camera and a slight amount more of ram, the increased data doesnt effect me in arizona where we dont get real 4g. the sensation is sounding like the better choice atm cuz i like the idea of having a aosp rom and a possible chance of seeing cm9 on my phone. so again if anyone could tell me if there is a chance that aosp will someday (hopefully soon) be on the amaze it would be helpful in helping me decide between the two phones. thank you.

sensation xl in titan case? cool.
Looks nice if this is real
Cool...
我非常期待呀...
We hope very....
much Faster
before I share your : D
2nd page shows WP 7.5 on Sensation XL. Ehm what's this? I guess they switched ....
Yeah they switched the cases...
Totally fake.
Both devices are running on the same board so you can easily swap them and get a running android on htc titan or running wp7 on sensation XL
This is fake, see this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=wPUCCsBQyss
This man changed housing HTC Sensation and HTC Titan. Look at the paper towel and screws - are the same.
