My first impression of the EVO 4G. (coming from a HTC TouchPro 2)
The day I ordered an EVO I found out that my SERO plan could take it if I wait till OCT. So I’ll return it and see what comes out around OCT.
What did I think of it? I’m coming from windows mobile 6.5 with HTC improvements (as well as a custom rom)
- I really miss the X button that you can hold and it will shut down the specific program. plus the little pull down on the main screen where you can shut down unused programs.
- I miss being able to quickly check all my emails with a few screen swipes
- Strangely enough the on screen keyboard (resistive screen) on the touch pro 2 is better. It really annoys me that if i already touched a key on the screen it won’t register it but the one next to it if i moved my finger a little (as i brush off to press the next button).
- I don’t like the fact that you can’t select where you store your media and it just searches the entire SD Card
- SNOOZE!!! i miss the different snooze options.
- I think the icons should be closer to each other, medicine so much space wasted.
- The stupid camera lens sticking out really bothers me, misbirth i know its a matter of time for it to either crack or scratch.
- No way to just shut down the cellular (yes i know there’s an app for plane mode + wifi)
- There is no easy way to customize the lock screen (to show agenda etc)
- The camera is really sub par.
- Very little internal storage space. WHY ?!
Pros:
- It’s much faster than my old TP2.
- Marketplace for apps.
- Front camera. I can see it useful
- Better integration with Google services, navi, cal, etc…
- Thiner and lighter.
- I like the bigger screen.
