HTC EVO Design 4G Review

[natsu5291]

I have the EVO design 4g and I love it the camera is great n clear

[thegreatest94]

How much would this phone cost for a new sprint costumer?

[peachfuzz333]

HTC evo 4g or HTC design?

[Evohz]

Which one would be better? The Evo 3D or the Evo Design 4g?

[MobileTechReview]

@Evohz The Evo Design 4G.

[Evohz]

@MobileTechReview Could you do a comparison video or something? I can't decide between the two.

[donutgabe]

@MobileTechReview Why do you recommend the Design over the 3D? Other than the Design's International compatibility, the 3D has better specs (better CPU, more system memory, etc.)

[liltweetie1]

Where is everybidy getting these phones for a $100.cause when I checked they was talking about $375 to $600.!

[TheLuxuride]

Is the Hero S the equivalent of this phone on Us Cellular? Seems like i had read that somewhere.

Also Serenity ftw.

[GAMEROFFORTUNE]

Im trying to decide between iPhone 4S or Samsung Epic 4G Touch??

[NiteSoldier88]

lol..... hand friendly

[twototwo444]

Lisa,

I really need some help here Should I buy a - htc EVO Design

- Motorola Photon 4g

- htc EVO 4g

- htc EVO 3D

- Samsung galaxy S epic 4g

Thanks! all of these are around the same price on ebay. I really need a nice bright screen.

[c2g1980]

@twototwo444 The epic 4g has the deepest colors & most vivid screen + a keyboard. The evo 4g is an awesome phone as well w/the more liked interface by most. After using the epic, the colors on the other phones look a little washed out but the screens are just as bright. The 3D is a nice phone but it lacks a flash for the camera. The Photon is nice as well but its has more lag in the browser & the interface than the others do. Just my 2 cents, hope maybe this helps.

[MyEric3000]

I just got it and using it.

[mikepourch]

Great phone..best phone I've had thus far..

[miguelmej]

Better than the first evo4g???

[PASSPORT29]

What's the difference from an EVO 4g and this phone?

[c2g1980]

@PASSPORT29 This phone has world capabilities & double the ram, higher resolution screen although smaller, has the newer HTC Sense & has improved camera quality.

[botafogo42]

evo3D ftw....but i switched for a photon nd its kinda better but its still good :D

[nintendonick]

lol flash

[Dannyao95]

what is the better phone for a lot of downloading

HTC Evo Design

Motorola Attrix

Samsung Infuse

Thank u sooo much for your help looking for a budget smartphone

[MobileTechReview]

@Dannyao95 If either carrier works for you (Sprint or AT&T), the Infuse 4G has more storage and a better camera.

[iTechHelper1]

@MobileTechReview but sprint has unlimited data! its wayy better for alot of downloading

[mrtwinkiemaster101]

@MobileTechReview can you give me an answer honest answer what is a better phone htc evo shift or htc evo design

[BeautyRUSHXVII]

Ughh her voice is so annoying and boring !

[theawesomeofstudios]

what makes it a design

[Swiftor96]

HTC EVO 4G, HTC EVO SHIFT 4G, HTC EVO VIEW 4G, HTC EVO 3D 4G, AND HTC EVO DESIGN 4G. What will be the next EVO in the EVO family.

[jonathanjbone]

I have this phone it works very well and it does plays netflix

[TheMichaelb628]

the regular evo is out dated going on what 2 or 3 years now i heard they are discounting it ! about time lol :D but i love that phone i have a shift becus i dont like all touch screen phones but im getting a evo design becus this video

[MeliiLynn]

How did you get the movies on your phone? and did you have to pay for it?

[xiejiahong]

Cool gadget. I'm considering buying this gadget. Thanks.

[FiremenRideUnicorns]

IS the screen as dark in real life as it is in this video?

[cd949604]

@FiremenRideUnicorns no,basically is like that to save battery life

[Vintuxx]

best review I've ever seen on youtube. really helpful

[MobileTechReview]

@Vintuxx Thanks! :) Please share our reviews. :)

[LITTLECAT287]

WHY DO THEY CALL IT 4G DESIGN.

[TheCanavisativa]

can you play netflix movies ?

[MobileTechReview]

@TheCanavisativa Yes.

[TheGhettoboy456]

@TheCanavisativa yes

[kissmmysass123]

@gzeigerman well, that's not true. How many truly high end smartohones come out without dual-core? I'm guessing you have a flip phone or a feature phone. HTC EVO 3D ftw

[kissmmysass123]

Why is the screen so dark? :0

[cd949604]

i got this phone :) its awesome

[cd949604]

im going to get this phone

[blackistheword7]

Just tweak your phone if batt is dying fast ,get atk in market

[TheHololo1234]

Just got the EVO Design yesterday and I really love it. I had the EVO 4g before this and I'm absolutely in love with the Evo Design. The phone is extremely fast, beautifully made, cheap, and is the perfect size. I loved the EVO 4g but the bulkiness was some what of a hassle, especially if you had a case on.

[ItzBecauseImBlack]

The HTC EVO 4G has better tech specs and a 8megapixel cam and cheaper WTF!

[weheartcupcakes]

@ItzBecauseImBlack this is the htc evo 4g...

[MARTIN3Z91]

Alright guys if y'all could tell me if this device is good on battery because I don't wannt a evo 3D or epic touch where the battery dies in like 3 hours or so...or is it the same shit with the battery as the ones I listed.

[anfbro25]

Odd that the EVO Design 4g doesnt have an HDMI out like my EVO 4g. I'm running Sense 3.5 which is the newest Sense UI now.

[TheDundermifflin12]

can u get apps like twitter and angry birds on this phone

[MobileTechReview]

@TheDundermifflin12 Yes, you can.

[blackistheword7]

Well,I've turned mines back in and the EVO 3d I have now is better. Enjoy what ever u choose.

[blackistheword7]

Android is better than osx ,this phone rocks so far the two days Ive had it. Back gets warm in the back once in awhile ,signal is good.light,classy,great qhd screen.thought I miss my orginal EVO 4g ,if I'm unsure by the wk end ill give HTC EVO 3 d a shot . But it does look a lil clunky. I saw a review where the signal is not to good on the inside on that phone.all round n round its about what u want on a phone to meet your needs... 3.0 sense is beautiful,

Text is good on the design ,batt ok

[thelyricsgrl]

@gzeigerman Thanks a lot that really helped! I wasn't really sure about the whole single/dual core processor thing so thanks. And I have a couple of friends with iPhone4S on Sprint and they all say it's really slow and they are really annoyed with it. Thanks again!

[narutofan4765]

Hey guys,I might be getting this phone and i was wondering how bad is the battery life really can someone give me a estimate of how long max?

[NoLaTvShow]

@narutofan4765 I jst got this phone lastnight battery life is ok i guess cuz u have a lot of apps running I said abt 5 hrs if u not on it a lot

[MrKrk2005]

how do you get sprint tv on this phone? Sprint store reps couldnt even answer this

[MobileTechReview]

@MrKrk2005 The phone comes with Sprint TV app, you need a plan that includes the Sprint TV service to use it.

[MrKrk2005]

@MobileTechReview thanks but i got the 69.99 plan with the other $10 fee its not on the phone already as an app.. were u able to access sprint tv on this phone personally?

[gzeigerman]

Damn, I've been using my evo design for 2.5 days without a recharge, while downloading emails, texting, calling, and playing games. Can't do that with an evo 3d.

[MobileTechReview]

@gzeigerman Excellent!

[thelyricsgrl]

Lisa, I'm getting a new phone from Sprint around Christmas time, and I've narrowed ir down to between the HTC Evo Deisgn 4G or the iPhone 4S. I can't decide which to get! I'm pretty much a textaholic and I would be using the phone alot (We have Sprint's amazing unlimited everything plan) and either or these phones would be a major step up from what I have now. Which phone would you reccomend for me? (the 4G doesn't matter, becuase there isn't 4G in my area) Just phone would be better? Thanks!

[gzeigerman]

@thelyricsgrl Evo Design for sure. No one needs a dual core processor on a cell phone, it's useless. Single cores are still lightning fast. Plus, you can expand memory capabilities on the evo design, the on screen keyboard is much better than the iphone 4s, and it's $100 cheaper. Iphone really has nothing above the evo design in terms of practical features. And the evo design works much better on sprint's network at this point in time than the iphone.

[DocJerky]

Anybody hear about how to root this phone?

[BBSroll]

did this come out before or after the evo 4G?

[MobileTechReview]

@BBSroll The HTC EVO 4G came out in May of last year, the HTC EVO Design 4G came out in October this year.

[Th3Batman561]

What fone should I get dis or evo shift ??

[gzeigerman]

@Th3Batman561 This. Evo shift is older, slower, and there's no need for a physical keyboard.

[justjustify85]

super duper...ou yea...



[alania421]

I've heard a lot of good things about this phone and am considering getting it cause it's perfect for me. I'm not a big phone user but I would like an affordable HTC.

[und34d96]

9:53-9:58 THATS WHAT SHE SAID! haha

[cd949604]

@und34d96 lmao

[DaKoopaRulz]

@und34d96 yeah SHE did say that too, nerd

[MsShankie]

@ MrMurder96... i agree!!! lol

[lilgordo98]

do u still have to pay the extra $10 for this phone?



[MobileTechReview]

@lilgordo98 Sprint charges $10 for WiMAX phones, so yes.

[AwesomeFerd48]

@flonkas intuition from a person who obviously knows nothing about phones, this has way better battery life, more comfortable, talk time is better and longer, this phone doesn't give ppl headaches wen staring at it for long amounts of time, and has a plain overall better rating on every single article I've seen of the two online, so I'm not saying the evo 3d is a bad phone, its just not as good as the design

[glamorattix3]

is the head phone jack for 3.5mm headphones? I would really like to know. Thanks for an awesome review! :)

[glamorattix3]

@glamorattix3 lol. never mind. I read your blog about it in your website:) I got my answer.

[dfjr1990]

@glamorattix3 

[dfjr1990]

Respond to this video...  yes

[dfjr1990]

@glamorattix3 yes

[blackstratbill]

the wrord on the apps and all the other words are way small anmd if you have prefect vexis0you caqn see the words are to fine and small

this hpone might have other options that are awesome but the words to so fine tittine so small for someone with bad eye sight

[Th3Batman561]

Should I buy this or the evo shift ??

[deathfinalform845]

Does the battery live for a good while? or does it drain fast, i am very curious to know that.

[MobileTechReview]

@deathfinalform845 If you leave WiMAX 4G on, the battery drains as quickly as it does with most Sprint 4G phones. Turn off WiMAX and it lasts pretty well.

[kissmmysass123]

They could've made the screen bigger....so much bezel

[flonkas]

EVO 3d is wayyyyy better

[moonknightbliss]

thumbs up for firefly!!!!!!!!!!

[iFortyz]

Please do an LG Esteem review from Metro PCS

[vanskiid]

Good review .

[richardb2837]

@MaGiiik13 i dont think evo is getting htc sense 3.0.

[MaGiiik13]

They should have made an update for htc sense 3.0 already for htc evo 4g this is BS

[PRJCTMYHMHD]

great review!

i'm looking to jump into the Android world... i currently have a Blackberry curve 9330 and to say the least im content with it but definitely not falling head over heals for it. the OS seems slow and unresponsive sometimes and half of the apps are crap. soo i'm looking for an Android on the Sprint network. looking for something sleek yet powerful. if anyone could help with suggestions i would greatly appreciate it as i am a noob to the Android World

[bvcl2432]

Lisa I love your reviews they are always at a perfect length, unkike other sites where their videos are short and brief.

[KHALDROGO123]

cant remove battery or sd card? LAME

why not just get a 3d

what a useless model

[toxikh1ro]

@KHALDROGO123

You can remove them, but since it's a unibody design, removing the battery and SD card are just more difficult. But I agree with you, the 3D is definitely a better device.

[sleepyhollow57]

Look like the EVO shift mixed with the original EVO

[MzChelxoxo]

ew until i saw the back design

[MzChelxoxo]

i think i want this

[ray1965mission]

As usual another great review LISA I appreciate all your reviews. People out their should jump on this new addition to the EVO BRAND of devices here on sprint especially since the original granddaddy of all android 4g devices has reached it's END OF LIFE on sprint. This is a great add on to the EVO family

[marioandzeldarox]

should i buy this or the regular evo 4g?

[DisThaTRUTH]

@marioandzeldarox that what im tryna figure out

[louierperez]

Lisa I've been watching review for two years and your reviews are the best ,keep up the good job :)

[MobileTechReview]

@louierperez Thanks very much for your support! We need more friends like you! :) Do share our reviews.

[snizzlefrazzy]

I was actually thinking of getting the iPhone 4 S, but no more. I'm sticking with Android :)

[vargusalex]

Do you have any idea of what phones are going to recieve the Andriod 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update?

[lRAYVNl]

@vargusalex on the new Galaxy Nexus will have it at first, and I thing the Droid RAZR might

[DBZKRN]

@vargusalex all phones which came stock with 2.3 will get 4.0..the nexus s is getting it very soon.

[BewareOfTheRabbit]

iPhone is the best. Fuck all you android faggots

[BewareOfTheRabbit]

Same as the HTC Legend

[MikeAvenger08]

Just updated my Galaxy S 4g from froyo to 2.3.5 without rooting....yes I want a cookie ;)

[OzTheGenius]

Lisa, I'm in love with you. I just want to know will you marry me??

[SaMKan3]

@OzTheGenius Hahahaahah ohhh pleaseee.

[stolic2012]

The screen looks horrid! I see why samsung is dominating now... htc really needs to work on their screen tech, love their designs but their screens are just crap especially in direct sunlight

[loseverette]

Just upgraded my moms hero to the design and she loves it!!

[MobileTechReview]

@loseverette Excellent! Go Mom!

[rockband2rookie]

Skrillex, on a youtube commercial? MY WISH HAS COME TRUE!

[lopezr1000]

i really like the black metal band in the back of this phone

[choobplaya]

what is that weird hand behind MTR

[MobileTechReview]

@choobplaya It's a part of our logo.

[YeahYeahReptile]

This makes the evo 3d look like garbage lol go figure.I had 3 Evo 3d's within a week.There still glitchy plus this phone seems faster and a WAY better camcorder

[TheAstonMartian]

Evo or iPhone?

[kyokeun]

@TheAstonMartian Samsung Galaxy S 2, Nexus Prime or HTC Amaze.

[TheAstonMartian]

@kyokeun That's the thing. Too many choices. I bought a Motorola XT720 and I know never to buy from Motorola ever again. The processor is too slow and they don't update the system.

[kyokeun]

@TheAstonMartian I know. Motorola sucks. But if you want to keep your phone for a long time, I will go for Meuse Prime because you will get latest updates like my Nexus S and the processor and stuff won't let you down ;-)

[TheAstonMartian]

@kyokeun Thanks man. I will take a look at the Nexus S. Hope it does the job. Motorola looks really nice and has a state of the art camera but the processor is so slow that at times it crashes and I have to remove the battery and then restart it which is time consuming. IPhone's are nice as well but almost everyone has them.

[kyokeun]

@TheAstonMartian Yeah, you probably can get Nexus S for free now, but Prime looks promising ;) Be sure to check that out too. It will be out in November

[TheAstonMartian]

@kyokeun Wow. I have never heard smartphones for free. Nexus S is a smartphone. I thought it would be a bit expensive. As for Meuse Prime, I got nothing in google after I searched for it.

[MobileTechReview]

@TheAstonMartian We will bring you a review of the Galaxy Nexus. Stay tuned.

[don198769]

No competition for the Atrix 2. 

[TheSleepingBrain]

It looks...interesting

[xavierp0nce]

I thought the latest Sense is 3.5?

[champtheboy]

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ---

[JogBird]

1 moar year on my contract with my pos htc hero and i can finally get a new phone, it wont be an android though

[lordangel1221]

There would be nothing like the HTC EVO 4G

[LoveLiveLifeUnique]

Great review but personally I think HTC is drowning the market with useless phones. All the same. One beast on every carrier yearly.

[Mr99RICH99]

it looks like the original htc evo ! whats the point of making it ?

[mobiletechkid]

Can you go to a sprint and have them turn on gsm and use it on att 3g?

[MobileTechReview]

@mobiletechkid No, actually firmware blocks it from using with AT&T and T-Mobile in the US.

[MrKittxatans]

I got a question. Can I use my Tmobile sim, and use that phone, like any other Tmobile phone ? Or Its something different ? Located in CA.

Thanks.

[MobileTechReview]

@MrKittxatans No, you can use the GSM overseas only.

[MrKittxatans]

@MobileTechReview Thanks for the update !

[SR5127CL]

@MobileTechReview Can you use it for Verizon? Thanks

[MobileTechReview]

@SR5127CL No, you can't.

[nick71082]

Love all your reviews maybe a little better light next time? :D

[suaveeze]

I am going to troll and say this is a waste I have 3d and if they were going to make another evo make it atleast 4.3 alot people just as I wanted just a newer evo without 3d but with screen battery life 8mp camera .... I'm hating just mad HTC didn't do anything smart for HTC people that fell in love with the original

[khompressor]

Lisa rocks! Great video reviews.

[PSPRULESnotDS]

g n a r l e y.......

[juicylovex3ily]

does it have better battery

[KiraismyLord]

Lisa has the best video reviews ever!

[spongeonwater]

nice
