oh god no memory card slot either? wtf is this an iphone? fuck how long am I goign to have to hold onto my evo before we get a good phone?

It has 32gb built-in.....but according to specs I found HTC says only 26gb is usable. This was a HUGE mistake for HTC to make.

Sorry....no interchangeable/high capacity battery option...and no memory card slot? That was a HUGE mistake for HTC to make. Specs and performance won't matter if your battery goes dead while trying to use it. Some people actually DO use all the memory their phone can use (I have a 16gb card and I've only used about 5gb of it so I'm not one of them)....movies, music, pics, documents. I don't see this phone doing very well against the SGS3.

Disable fast boot and it'll fully shut down.

i like to flash and mod the shit out of phones. A phone being locked and not having a battery to remove is an instant deal breaker for me.

yeah that's a good point, how do you force a hard reboot? On all my android phones it does a bullshit shut down when you hold the power button, it's not really off, you press the on button and the lock screen appears.

It doesn't have an easily removable pop-out/pop in type battery. You could still grab a small screwdriver and tear it down and replace the battery if you needed. You just won't be able to quickly swap batteries if your phone is dying and you had a spare.

Yeah I'm a total battery hoarder. I have 7 batteries for my evo and I swap them out all the time. But, that's because it's battery life is complete dog shit. Hopefully this one is better.

god damnit I forgot about that... son of bitch.



Oh well, maybe I'll try it, if the battery goes out I'll just have it replaced I guess.

Non-removable battery on that phone though, would not recommend.

Unless they get a variant of the Samsung SGS3, no.

Is there any better phones planned in the near future?

The Evo LTE is the sprint variant of the One XL.

It's the sprint variant.
