Yay!!!!!
Be nice if the Evo 3D review was on one of the above lists mentioned.
See the big picture of the device? Well look right above it in the big, bold, blue text that says "Read our EVO 3D initial review".
TAA-DAA!! Review time!
The initial review is not the full in-depth reveiw.
TAA-DAA!!!
Got mine Wednesday.. coming from the Hero & Transform, this thing is awesome! I am the point of envy in my office... as one co-worker said "Man, Verizon sucks. I'm switching to Sprint"...
Let the development community now embrace this amazing phone!
Can you please post a video comparison of 2D 720p video and audio from the Evo4G and the Evo3D? This is really all I care about, my Evo4G runs just fine, I just can't stand the video/audio quality at 720p!!! Don't let me down Android Central!!!!
i wanna play with it before uploading stuff but i can tell you as someone who was pretty much in the same boat, YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED!!! lol i was worried about it at first but this thing is beautiful playback is as smooth as anything ive seen!
The audio is way better, as is the video. Looking at the specs of a video I filmed in 3D in indoor light, at 720p, the frame rate is 30.395 fps. The audio is 44,100 Hz, 16 Bit, Stereo, AAC at 64 kbps. The EVO 4G's audio is 8,000 Hz, 8-bit, so that's as big improvement.
The E3D handles lower light much better.
Only thing missing is an unlocked bootloader. Come on HTC where's the update to unlock this?
first one at bb
Had my 3d for an hour now and loving it so far
On my way to bb to pick up mine now
Did anybody tried video chat on the EVO 3D?, it seems the other side receives the image upside-down. Same thing happened with the sensation. No matter if is fring or Qik
This phone is bad ass!!!! Gimick or not, the 3D is friggin awesome!!! The speed is out freakin standing as well. This is a great update to the EVO. GO GET THIS PHONE.......NOW!!!!!!!

I got mine 3d evo two days ago and i am loving it...the only problem i have is the sound volume...it to low. Is anybody else having this problem?
The 3D is not that superior then my EVO 4G. I purchased the 3D at launch day @ 8am and returned it the same day @ 7:30pm. The speed wasn't that noticeable and don't let me get started on the 3D (gimick or what). If it wasn't for the 3D what is actually sparkling the flame for this phone?? Also I know both phones are 4.3" but the 4G screen is wider then the 3D?? I'll use my upgrade for something more deserving.
