Unboxing the HTC EVO 4G, part 2

Hot on the heels of yesterday's initial unboxing of the HTC EVO 4G, here are additional pictures and videos (above & after the break)!

The pictures include comparisons between the EVO 4G, the Incredible, the Nexus One, the Hero, and the iPhone 3GS - there's even an OQO Model 01+ cameo...

First impressions? That 4.3″ TFT screen is just phenomenal - the additional real estate really improves the user experience, but the phone remains very pocketable.

The EVO 4G lacks the 8 GB of built-in storage available on the Incredible, but includes 1 GB of flash for applications and comes with an 8 GB micro-SD card pre-installed.

On the camera front, the EVO 4G appears to share the same excellent sensor and optics as the Incredible, but adds HD video recording and automatic face detection. Don't be surprised if the Incredible inherits these features in a future software update :)

There's no optical trackpad or scroll ball on the EVO 4G - the on-screen keyboard includes cursors keys instead...

Stay tuned for more coverage soon!

In your opinion, which is a better phone? the EVO or the Incredible?

[qrpkgrl]

@ROFL69Productions Neither. Both are getting dated.

The battery bubbles when you talk n charge ya phone at the same time also and when you leave it on charge along time after its done

warning to anyone buying an evo - I got one a year ago this August, and the battery in these is apparently notorious for going bad. One day last week, my phone just wouldn't power on. Wouldn't register to charge or anything at all. Took it to the Sprint store. They took the battery out and spun it on the table then informed me my battery had started to "balloon" and that the evo batteries do that in abt a year. got a new battery free of charge though!

@qrpkgrl

Yes both are dated but with Android its always like that. Its dated as soon as its released. But I got my Incredible 1 brand new for free 4 months ago and love it! I dont care for front facing camera. People are still rockin and holding on to their old iphones 3g/s and Nexus Ones. Its all about preference. I just sold an Old sprint HTC Hero for $80 last month and they love it. If you like your phone, Keep it! :P

I prefer my Incredible. Its been proven to be a tad faster on some tests. I dont care for a front facing camera and I love the optical trackpad. Its light and has the perfect size IMO. However, you extra features, 4G and bigger screen (though heavier phone) go with the Evo. But Verizon 3G is plenty fast I've noticed.
