Just got this phone i really like it. It feels good in the hand and everything seems like touch screen no buttons at all on the face of the phone. I would recommend this phone to anyone
Getting this phone on my birthday which is coming up, I can't wait. I've heard so much about it. My whole family has it. Good review, lots of information
ok soo wednesday im gettin a new phone because i want to upgrade from my lg optimus s so i deciding this or (motorola photon) or the samsung epic 4g plszx help me cause ion know y i think the phone iss kinda of ugly but yet i still think i want it
Aight so i went ahead and got this over the Evo 3D, The 3D triggered my migraines like mad. I love the photon its 10x faster than my itouch 4(not counting the connection speeds) Loads up youtube videos and internet way faster than my itouch and im also on the same wifi network. Deffinitly get this phone its amazing im very excited.
@4tusito $199 USD. Some Sprint Customers have been getting $150 savings on each phone depending on how long they've been with Sprint. Hooray customer loyalty programs!
Warrup dawgs , can u dawgs help me out plz, my contract expiring in 8days straight from today. And i wanna get one of these two phones , should i get da mathafuckin htc sensation ? Or da fathafuckin htc thunderbolt? Which is a better overall powerhouse? Plz be honost my dawgs. Good lookin out my dawgs. Peace.
I understand the physical and hardware advantages/upgrades but android is android. Even with the new software is still boring. It's almost unessesary to review any android device reviewed if you have seen any android device reviewed. just review the phone and then throw in at the end it's opperating the android software. The end
Do a triple dogfight that hasn't been done in awhile between this, the nexus s 4g and the HTC EVO 3d. You can split it into 3 or more parts. Therefore people can have one stop shop for what phone to get I mean photon has world capabilities and webtop, business features, nexus s 4G is pure Google and has nfc and evo3d has 3d and HTC goodness do it aron
@cl65amg69 Agreed. I think the only wireless carrier out there right now that has true 4G is Verizon, which uses LTE. AT-Mobile's HSPA+ network is a pretty close second to that. AT&T's so-called "4G" speeds aren't the greatest either. Speaking of AT&T's 4G, does anyone know when they're rolling out their LTE expansion to their network?
so i don"t know if this is true but i heard that LTE uses sim cards. So since the Photon has a sim card slot will it be able to use LTE when sprint switches?
@Rmeyer845 this is a great phone much more powerful then nexus s 4g when the bootloaders unlocked it will be da best.nexus is Google developer phones it will always get the upgrades way before any other phone
@phonedog Hey Aaron, how's the WiMAX radio on this compared to the EVO 3D? Do you actually get WiMAX with it or is the good radio not enough to get WiMAX where you're located?
Great phone, my favorite on Sprint. I love the screen, camera, look, specs, UI, basically just about everything. Though I'd never switch to Sprint. The radio's great though, I wonder how well it does with WiMAX in Aaron's house considering the EVO 3D get's 1-5 bars of 3G and 1 bar of WiMAX while this gets 4-5bars of 3G in the same area.
@toomuchgame441 lol, you want to see more of this guy in fashion shows, I suggest you ask him to send you some private video's of him combing his hair and putting makeup on his cold sore. Otherwise, I want to see a full video of phone reviews, not some ugly tacky purple shirt in place of what could be valuable info. And no, he's really not that good, he's bias, he's uninformative, and the only reason PhoneDog has half of it's subscribers is because Noah had originally brought them in.
Aaron I don't think the majority of people care to see your face, lousy hair, baked tan, purple shirt, or cold sore before every one of your reviews. You're not a celebrity, you're a youtube phone reviewer for crying out loud, so spend more time reviewing devices, and less time on your fashion apparel.
When this phone was announced, it was overshadowed by the triumph which was announced at the same time. So idk if people will care about this photon, considering a pre paid phone stole the show lol

Global Roaming > 3D.
I would happily trade the EVO 3D's 3D capability for a better camera (8-12 MP), GSM (World Roam), and the Kickstand.
I would totally pick the Photon 4G if it ran HTC Sense. But now I don't know which one to pick anymore.
