  • I have an iphone 3g and HTC evo , and the evo battery life sucks ass ! even with all the radios turned off and on my iphone last almost the whole day even with everything turned on

  • this guy needs to go outside

  • the iphone is on wifi and the evo is on 4g? wow this guy is really stupid ..of course wifi will give better battery life

  • Seriously dude? I would have thought that someone who apparently gets phones from the company to test out would do some sort of research on the phone. When I got my EVO it was with my dad's upgrade so he had it until the rebate came in. And he does not know anything about phones. Out of the box, yes he had to charge it 3 times a day. He gave it to me for 40 minutes, I looked online, and played with the settings a bit. 2 days of very normal use for me easily, and I love messing around on it.

  • Finally someone who shows that iPhone kills in battery good video you should see the 5S battery amazing

  • iPhone is better simple as that

  • There's no fanboy worse than a fandroid....

    Proof is below...

  • I went from IPhone to HTC now i am with IPhone again ....... Say no more .....

  • LOOL. OMFG. STFU, You're if you and the robot review EVO 4g guy talk normally like this. You guys are fucking annoying.

  • I have the EVO and I would have to agree that it dies extremely fast and their is nothing you can do about it.

  • I have an Iphone 3gs, for over a year now, this was not a fair test, although the battery of it went down a shit load regardless

  • I dont like the fact that you left blue tooth on and and gurantee this really wasnt a fair test guranteed you fan boy you loves the iphone well simple reality DROID IS BETTER! DEAL WITH IT! droid has surpassed the iphone on all capabilitys the Iphone 4gs is the biggest let down they only added four new features which are ALL already avaliable for droid and were about 6-7 months ago siri is nothing new used it 2 months ago IPHONE=SHIT!

  • @turgo82 Nintendo paved the way for video games, but now they're being left behind.

    The iPhone was great when it came out, and it was in the lead. But now, with all the new android phones, it's being left in the dust. Use whatever makes you feel comfortable, but the iPhone is developed by a major corporation, you only get one choice. With android, you can chose from hundreds of devices.

  • you're a fucking idiot fanboy lol

  • shut the fuck up you annoying ass geek.

  • how did you get to that screen that shows what is chewing up your battery Chris?

  • The iphone always laggs on the smallest things ever such as how the notification pops up everytime ur on an app or surfing the web that gets annoying and also multytasking and etc. The iphone can bring that to the next iphone 5 and every ifuck user will be all new to it when every htc user knows they had the idea first thats why i hate iphone they lagg on giving what the people want and when they give it they take out a new device( and its the same) and they think its better

  • If you look on the evo he has 4g and bluetooth on.

    Whereas the Iphone is only connected to wifi.

    SOOOOOOO DUMB!

  • @RandomMan800 actually the iPhones bluetooth is on... the little symbol is next to the battery percentage

  • @RandomMan800 ok your dumb if your not blind you can see that the iphone has bluetooth on

  • Chris is too stupid to use an android device!

  • UR HELLA GAY AND A BIGASS NERD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • how does it campare the htc eveo 4g to the back flip

  • man it seems everyone hates you with pretty good reason to hate you. I wonder why is that? hhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmm

  • smh dumb iphone fanboy fuck ...u sayin the iphone bar=ttery wont lasy but yet u have every single thing turned on ...dat piece of shit 3gs or even the iphone 4 aiint got shit on the evo 4g or the evo 3d .....make a review with real facts next times , not bs .....#NEXTTT !!!

  • FAG UR all stuck up lil bitch ... the iPhone is shit compared to the evo

  • Nice job misleading people Chris! I use to have respect for you.

  • Take off satellite, Bluetooth, and 4G if you don't use it, commonsense Chris.

  • He probably just got done charging the iPhone

    .

  • First make sure that 4G is turned off on both phones.... o thats right the iphone doesnt have 4G haha

    Nice try Chris but come on now

  • Ur a faggot ass fucking queer with a gay voice. I posted this from an evo 4g so suck my swype keyboard bitch

  • @TheSpetza

    You must not have a life.

    Sad.

  • lets see bluetooth, gps, 4g, all services with sync on, and full brightness? while the iphone probably only has the Bluetooth and gps on. wow man you gotta be more fair and quit siding with apple all the time. that's very uncool.

  • ur a dumass my evo get the best battery life two whole days

  • So you had bluetooth 4G (which takes up a ton of battery) and GPS on.. Why?

  • @Iwebguru he had bluetooth and GPS on both phones. He left them on for the test.

  • im an apple fanboy but i have to evo and its a great phone its actualy in opinion better that 3gs but i phone 4 different story but chris your an ass

  • Agree I had the evo for a week and happily returned it. It sucked android os while good has a lot work to go to be great. 

  • Sorry everyone-- but I agree with Chris completely. I had an old iPhone 3G and got sick of paying high AT&T prices. Yesterday I bought the HTC Evo, and my experience has been pretty much the same as what Chris has said. I actually just returned it. Other than Sprint having less expensive plans, there was no advantage to the Evo.  The Evo layout is not very user friendly, it got bad reception, the battery life is very short, the internet crashes a lot, the construction feels cheap.

  • you're a dumb-fuck.

  • Hey dumb ass how about logging off ur twitter or changing the refreshing time on twitter? And turn off 4g when not using it? Or turn off bluetooth?

    Go back to your iphone please, you dumb ass can't handle android phones.

  • I use my EVO pretty regularly, and i can get a day and a half out of it, like ANY device, I close apps and things after im done using it, which is something the iphone does whether you want it to or not!! when you say your "not using the phone", but you have twitter running and 4g and blue tooth, and who knows what else. one thing i will tell you is that I enjoy talking to someone while texting or looking up something on the internet. let me know when you can do that on your iphone 3g

  • IPhone sucks ass

  • The problem is Chris IS BIASED. He uses a lot of Apple stuff so it is no wonder droid fan bois jump on this when a Android Device is given a negative review.

    His test was unfair because it does not supply any evidence the device completed a full charge cycle, the devices were not put through the same test under the same circumstances.

  • you sir are the next 40 year old virgin.

  • some one who dont like android will shit alk them just like people say blackberry sucks every one will not like something if its big girls or skinny some one ill find a way to say hey not for me

  • ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh goo screw ur self stupid fan boys. Iphone is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I can get 7 days out of my Android 2.1 phone. Click my name and check my uploads for proof.

  • stupid ass bitch...cant stand his ass....

  • you have tweeter log in making refresh every 15 minutes.. you have to add the LED FLASHING telling you that a new message arrived.. that drains a bit of battery.. Iphone sucks, it tells you with a little message that something new arrived.. if you didn't heard it. .your screwed until you open your phone.

    My HTC hero is a piece of sh** BUT with Advanced App killer I go from 7am to 11pm without needing to charge.. And with heavy usage.

    Tomorrow getting an Evo :D !! screw you apple and iphone !

  • Install the "green power" free app from the android market and test it again...you'll be surprised as to which phone actually lasts longer...i use it and get 20 hrs battery life out of my phone even after moderate use.

  • Your dumb as fuck , why would you have blue-tooth on? That's obviously what wastes battery life. Your a stupid iphone hag ! I have a iphone 3g and the battery is shit . If you play a game in 10 min it takes half of battery life. By the way im getting an Evo soon!

  • @MidgetG863 If you really are a smart ass, you'd see that the bluetooth on the iphone 3GS is ALSO on. This is a fair comparison.

  • @kttsrwt Your just one ugly ass apple loving piece of shit, your just mad because many phones especially this one kill the iphone , plus your right they both have blue- tooth on , but this little gay faggot , which is also you, has the 4g turned on , on the evo. Which will waste battery life ! And the iphone will never have 4g. Fucking Faggot!

  • @MidgetG863 Why not tell him to turn off cellular network also because that would also waste battery life as well. If you got 4g on there, but you're not gonna turn it on cuz it waste battery life, why the fuck would you buy a 4g phone then huh? What's next? You tell him to turn of 3g cuz that wastes battery? Give me a fucking break. Stop watching youtube and go to college.

  • @kttsrwt Suck my right nut , you fucking piece of shit , go fuck this little faggot that is hating on the evo .

  • @MidgetG863 both bluetooth are on!!

  • @MidgetG863 @Djluv5 <-- what he said.

  • @MidgetG863 But on iphone you got BT on too....

  • @MidgetG863 As u can see both phones has blue-t switch on.

  • are you stupid? cause u sound like mclovin...

  • your voice makes me want to kill babies, then use the mutilated baby corpses as clubs to kill more babies...

  • @money2themax You have a problem with fanboy's. If people like something that's there choice. This is not north korea. When people say fanboy I say grow the f up.

  • He's right had it for a week. Horrible. Happily returned it. The worst battery life I ever seen. The os does not work well with the hardware. Now I see why apple makes there own stuff. Took it off the charger at 8am by 1pm it was at 28%. It was slow. The response was a nightmare. Froze up 10 times in the week I had it. The os needs alot of work Not sure what people see in the android os I see alot of people are leaving these android phone now that the iphone is on big red I dont blame them

  • You can read alot about the battery life of the EVO 4G and also other Android phones. He may come off a little like a fanboy but that's probably because he thought he need to defend himself against some people.

    I guess it's all about the preference though.

  • fuck that battery you fuck that iphone htc all the way 

  • fuck that battery you fuck that iphone htc all the way you fucking

  • HTC phone battery life= SHIT, i got the Mytouch 4g i full charge at 4 PM next morning at 10 AM it says low battery, i didnt use it ONE second it just sat there...

  • @ASSYRIANLEGEND make sure you have the 4G network turned off, that's what drains the battery when you're not using it

  • 3GS!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Guys don't hate! I have an Evo, but I can still admit you can get better battery out of the iPhone.

  • My Evo lasts all day and still has about 20% battery left. I charge overnight. Also use taskillers. They really help!!

  • LOL "IM NOT AS BIASED AS SOME PEOPLE THINK I AM" REALLY? HAHAHA WHAT A FKING DUMB SHIT.

  • ha ha ha ha ha stupid! your not bias?you showing the Evo whats on the Screen and you kep hiding your Gayphone ahi hi h hi hi hi hi ih

  • So this is what an iphone fanboy sounds like

  • Wow i just saw Steve Jobs prying your lips off his ass LOL

    Why did you not show what was running in the back ground on the iphone.

    Did i hear you say your not bias.

  • FUCK U U STUPID SON OF A BITCH I FUCKING HATE U ,U SHOULD JUST STOP MAKING REVIEWS BC OBVIOUSLY NO ONE LIKES SOOOO STFU AND GO STUDY LIKE U NORMALLY WOULD DO !

  • Wow you sound like a fag, i was subscribed to your gay ass channel, i dont know why, but not anymore. However you still suk balls, and sound like your jerking off while recording this. The Evo spanks that junk ass gayphone... i mean iphone of yours all day. Its no wonder your being hated by many.

  • I am at 14 hours with my evo, my daughter used it to watch youtube for long time,and I used it like it was ment to be used, it is apparent this geek is blinded by his iphone. same shit goes on when ya compare Fords to Chevys, I am glad we have so many choices, without variaty we all would be STUCK with iphones, dig intended

  • I use to watch ur vids but now I am unsubscribing cuz ur a apple fan boy to the death and turn off 4g it takes a lot on all phones and bluetoouth

  • My EVO lasts an entire day with a 40-50% charge left the second day. And I do quite a bit of email and a few calls. Battery life is fine - just charge once a day. I have the 4G receiver off cause u really don't need it - web browsing EVO on Sprint network with 3G speed is faster than my iPhone 3G with wifi. EVO 3G vs iPhone 3G speed is like cable modem vs dial-up, so if the battery life is not as long, so what, you don't waste your time waiting for pages to load.

  • EVO is still way better so fuck u, O and no 1 likes ur video LOL haha

  • I use to have respect for you, but youre stupid

  • this video is a bunch of bs i get 8 to 10 hrs with moderate to heavy use on my evo and i have gps and bluetooth on, dont believe me i can show you proof of it even lasting me 18 hrs with moderate use.

  • turn the bluetooth off. Duh.

  • MY EVO LASTS ALL DAY BEAT THAT CHRIS PROILLO

  • so answer me this one, since you aren't "biased" or anything if I have the same usage on my screen and 80% battery, plus i've been up since 7am, went to class and work and it's almost 6 now. HOW is my battery not "dead" and you haven't used it at all? hmmmmm

  • I like how for the last two hours ive lost 5 percent while i have android system 59 percent display 17 percent wifi 12 percent and cell standby for 12 percent....yes i like to actually use my phone.. and i do

  • i get 10+hours on my evo texting constantly. by that i mean i have well over 1000 a day... battery does not suck

  • @lockergnome Turning off the bluetooth is smart if your not using bluetooth. The auto sync that constantly runs should also be off & if your not using wifi don't let scan 4 wifi constantly. My evo gets 8-10hrs on 1 charge. I use bluetooth just not 24 7. I use wifi quite a bit but I turn it off when I'm not using it. Its no more than 1 step to turn these on & off w/out going n2 the settings. When you leave background sync on u'll be refreshing 15 to 20 apps in the background continuously.

  • your an idiot i use my evo all the time and the battery lasts from when i wake up to the time i go to sleep retard. You are incredibly bias i guarantee your iphone didnt have bluetooth tunning the whole time

  • You didnt even show the usage on the iphone 3GS

  • its because you have the bluetooth on...

  • you had bluetooth running the whole fucking time what did you expect

  • Ok, we get it, your not that biased!! No need to be a douche!!

  • This kid is a retard...Sprint, HTC, or Google's shortcomings? I have the EVO and my battery is find. How about Apple's shortcomings? I can hold my EVO anyway I want and I don't drop calls.. why dont you put that in your video? By the way you sound like the annoying nerd that I did swirleys to in high school.

  • NO no I have the same problem i have to constantly kill apps. check my battery and and average time life for my battery is 4- 5 hours at best...

  • this is so true my buddy had a evo and he had to charge it every 4 1/2 to 5 hours. I would say its because of the shitty google os. But what do I know. He with others im sure have returned it. Because of this and other reasons that include the screen coming off the phone and a choppy os. IMO google android os was rushed out the door and sucks.

  • Sprint says if you have low 4g signal to just switch to 3g. You had 1 4g bar assclown

  • You do act like a fanboy Chris apple my have good battery life but it lacks alot of features that some of us want in a phone like flash, size, networks, speed, data plans, and true customization. I don't like feeling locked it to a service and phone i like freedom to choose carriers and plans. Sorry but you don't speak for alot of us just the ones who feel like being screwed by Apple and AT&T. You might want to try talking about phones when you actually use more of them Chris

  • you are so fucking stupid, who the hell would put a bluetooth on a phone that you could see who your talking to, just put it on speaker you dumb ass. P.S. I'm 12 and iphone sucks dick.

  • you are so fucking stupid, who the hell would put a bluetooth on a phone that you could see who your talking to, just put it on speaker you dumb ass. P.S. I'm 12 and iphone sucks dick.

  • you are so fucking stupid, who the hell would put a bluetooth on a phone that you could see who your talking to, just put it on speaker you dumb ass.

  • I have the Sprint htc EVO. Your video does not lie, you are right on point. The EVO is a power hungry device. I solved this by purchasing 4 extra batteries and 2 external chargers. From the looks of it I will need to buy 4 more batteries. If I really want to use the phone none stop I will have to change batteries every 2-3 hours. Batteries were cheap $5 each on ebay well worth it though. Overall I saved money as my plan $79 unlimited everything a month on Sprint vs $120+ a month on AT&T iphone

  • that's why God created removable batteries

  • All I have to say if you are in love with your iPhone JUST SAY IT. Don't bash other devices because of your apple fetish. Shats so funny is the fact that I'm typing this on an iPhone. And as of tomorrow. I'm officially making the change to the evo. I've been apart of the iPhone craze, put up with AT&T robbing me. Hope you and your iPhone have a happy marriage. Cuz me & mine are divorced!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @getduhmoney704 FUCK IPHONE

  • Its funny how iphone users are getting a jelous that there may be a better phone out now. So far the Evo is doing better than the Iphone. But who cares. Buy the phone u like and stop comparing. If u like this brand or that brand then so be it.

  • even if there was a flaw that when u went into a certian widget it bricked the phone i dont think very many of you would admit it or just call the review bias. BTW hearing all this talk about widgets makes me think of a mac book. that defiantly use to be an argument from mac users to get pc users.

  • I hope you can take some constructive criticism here, this kind of video doesn't do you any good, more to the point, it lessens your credibility and makes you look kind of silly. If you would do truly unbiased reviews with out these needs to backlash you'd go a lot farther to being respected and listened to.

  • There is no Empirical evidence here as you suggest as you could have very easily rigged this video by putting in your charge adapter for a few minutes and then removed it 4 hrs ago and wallah, short battery life. Your tone also suggests that you are less than honest and are simply firing back at comments that don't agree with yours. I get 15 hrs or better with mine and I don't turn everything off nor do I turn everything on, just the stuff I constantly use and I use mine frequently.

  • i always find phones other than iphone are slow and sluggish. nothing beats an apple. simple and fast. u don't need to turn off anything.

  • why the fuck do you even have bluetooth on if you didnt even use the phone? you can see that its taking 30% of the battery..

  • You guys can hate on this video, but a week ago I was in love with the Evo 4G, and than I got an oppritunity to switch over and get an iPhone4. Well the fact is these phones are very similar, other than the Sense UI, and IOS4. I like the Evo but what is the point of having so many features if you have to turn them of, because you want to save battery life. I just dont understand that.

  • Ok first the battery is gone on the evo...you said you havent used it all day..yet clearly it says you used bluetooth...my favorite is when he says in his gay little voice "if you cant see theres an amber light blinking"... my next favorite is when he says "iphone idle (ha) i mean phone idle".... THE IPHONE DOESNT SHOW WHERE YOUR FUCKING BATTERY DOES IT?

  • @adamant376 yeah, he just hasnt used his iphone very much the day he filmed this. i can tell just by his voice that he's an apple fanboy faggot.

  • finaly thanks he is a fag

  • You, sir, are a whiney-little-gay-nerd. You were annoying as hell when you hosted Call For Help back in the Tech TV days. I hate you.

  • Fag

  • LOLZ you said iphone idle and this video is about you not being a Apple fanboi ROFL

  • Hahahaha, this guy actually blocked one of my accounts from posting on his videos because he doesnt like being called out for his biased reviews! Awesome, dude, if you cant take the heat of a public outlash for your crappy iReviews, then dont make them!

  • Comment removed

  • If you're not going to use 4g, Turn it off

    You also used Bluetooth and called people through at least 60% of the battery.

    You probably have Wi-Fi running when you don't need it to be either.

    Obviously you don't know how to use a phone other than the iPhone.

    Only stupid people use iPhones >_>

  • @Tyko9464 It kind of sucks to turn off Wi-Fi and bluetooth every time you don't use it.

  • @paveluds

    Its really hard to push two icons. Makes my fingers hurt.

  • Comment removed

  • has this guy even been through puberty?

  • hell no and i am 12 no lie

  • Your report was lame and showed that your bias for iphone definitely effected your post... How is it everyone else gets twice to three times out of it than you did? This makes all your posts suspect... Get real...

  • psh, you call yourself a reviewer? what a bias douche :/

  • u turn off the blue-tooth and wi-fi then saves your battery 

  • ya no shit LOL Ya i had a evo for a week and returned it worst phone ive had. This is was my first android phone horrible. I didn't like the ui the software is slow and choppy. And yes the battery ahh the battery i had the phone for a WEEK and charged it twice a day. Just got the iphone 4 two weeks ago. Love it and no i don't have reception problems or gripping problems. And where i live at&t is awesome. thx apple for my iphone 4, Now I see why so many people love them.

  • @rushrules1968 "This is was my first android phone horrible" huh???? thats why the iphone is for you, it's so easy to use even a caveman could use it. Learn to make a complete sentence.

  • lol i have a evo 4g myself and mine lasts for about 24-48 hours depending on my usage.

    1) your 4g is on. Its looking for that 4g wimax signal the whole time.

    2) bluetooth doesnt use much battery unless its being used or being used by a program. turn it off.

    3) yes task killers get bad reps for closing your apps but it really does help

    4) 4g. 720p recording. hdmi out. 8mp camera. 4.3" screen > iphone3g & iphone4

  • @excalibur3 The iPhone also has 720p recording as well, so you can't really list that as a strong point. It looks better on the iPhone, too.

  • @excalibur3

    i like both of these phones, and i think that the htc looks great! and i love the widgets and the gui and all that, but i think why would they make the phone capable of 4g if it just destroys your battery life, and sure you can turn it off, but then what about when the networks become 4g, sorta ruins the point of having it.

  • he sounds like mandark from dexters labratory

  • He has the 4g radio turned on. It is widely know that the 4g radio should be turned off unless you're actually losing it. It really seems to me that this guy is unwilling to really get into using the Evo and setting it up. I get good battery life(not great however) out of my Evo by using a little common sense. I keep my 4g radio off unless i need it...and I manually sync my data most of the time.

    This dosent truly seem "empirical" to me. We dont know the settings of both phones in the vid

  • APPLE FANBOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

  • People should really stop the comparison between these 2 phones. I believe it really comes down to personal preference. They are both awesome phones and have their pro's and con's. After using iPhone for 2 years I'm going to switch to the HTC and try Android. I love the iPhone but I want to try something different. We'll see what's out when my contract is up and try something else. For the record your review of the HTC was obviously biased but hey there are plenty of other reviews on YouTube.

  • I have to say, the EVO battery sucks BAD.

    Coming from a blackberry that got 48+ hours, this POS gets not even 8 hours.

    I've upgraded the battery to 1700, I've killed tasks, I've even tried not using it. UGGG!!! It's so cool, but I'm returning it I think.

  • @jonvssocrates There is a 3500 mAh battery coming out for the Evo. You do have to change the back but dont give up on it just yet! Im sure more updates to improve battery life will become available with the Froyo 2.2 update as well.

  • turn off bluetooth stupid!!

  • I respect your opinion, but I cannot believe that the designers of the Evo intended it to only have a 5 hour battery life in standby.

    I have an htc hd2, and it does not have the best battery life, but I can leave it uncharing over night, and still only lose a few percent of my battery.

    Maybe you just have a bad battery? Maybe the 4G drains it that badly, I don't know. But I don't think that 5 hours standby is right.

  • Comment removed

  • I noticed that you had 4g enabled, bluetooth enabled and GPS enabled. You did not physically use the phone, the device is constantly searching for signals when it is idle, thus draining the battery. This is a poor review of battery life.

  • @OCSwimmerBoi so youre saying you have to turn off most of the features if you want to actually use the phone?

  • @jstntarango That is not what I am saying. I can use the device with most of the features enabled, although, like any device, to maximize battery life, it isn't smart to have EVERYTHING running full power ALL THE TIME. This goes for the iPhone as well.

  • wtf 5 hours,you have a bad battery

  • "web surfing, email, texting, shoving it up my ass till i cry like the little bitch that i am, you know regular usage." it's on 4g you wimp

  • Liar Liar Pants on Fire

  • Liar u probably do this for stupid apple

  • Apple is a communist company. They tell you how you can hold your phone or else you WILL NOT be able to get phone calls due to their shitty antenna mistakes and also AT&T's SHITTY ASS network!! EVO FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • calling this guy a goober is being nice....

    get off your knees "goober" and away from steve's dick, and get a phone that wasnt made for a kid in the third grade

  • This guy is a dork. My evo will last over 24 hours without using it. He obviously turned on all his radios and allowed all his network applications to run continuously.  Moron.
