iPhone 4 Vs. HTC EVO 4G: Which One Will You Buy?
Apple unveiled the next generation iPhone yesterday amidst a lot of anticipation and excitement. As Steve Jobs had noted prior to the event, the announcements at WWDC 2010 did not leave the users disappointed. In fact, Apple has claimed that iPhone 4 is “the biggest thing to happen to iPhone...

I'll take the iPhone 4, then the 5 and 6

First... iPhone makes drool!

The only two things the iPhone 4 brings that hasn't been seen in phones in the past is the gyro and the higher resolution screen....
Front facing cameras for video conferencing have been around for a LONG time. Same thing for multi-tasking environments.
I realize this is an apple fan-boy driven site, hence the bias, but ... seriously... you think the edge goes to the iPhone due to its OS and market? Both of which are severely locked down compared to the Android platform.... and most of the other platforms, to be honest.
You're also forgetting to mention that the EVO 4G does HDMI output, lets you buy a second battery to pop in if yours is running low (or a higher capacity battery if you want a longer talk time) and since it's open and lets you use your own SD card, you can copy whatever data you'd like just by mounting it like any old memory stick... I believe these are all huge selling points.
One other point... since you'll be locked to AT&T, if you want to take advantage of the data tethering you'll be forced to "upgrade" to their limited bandwidth package of 2gb/month plus pay the extra $20/month for tethering ($55/month total... for 2gb of data). If you download just one high definition movie from itunes to show off the high resolution display... say goodbye to using your data connection for the rest of the month without paying overages.

iphone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

im a HUGE apple lover, but honestly i was very disappointed with the new iphone.... my contact is up june 15th and im torn.... wishing the new iphone was better, and really think im gonna jump on the evo..... the evo is hands down better than the iphone, and i dunno how anyone could argue other wise
-
all ppl vote for HTC EVO 4g...didnt see it yet on there hands.....that phone is so bad looks bad, and feel bad....im still IPHONE lover...lol
-
Video is for the Incredible not EVO.
-
I'm lost with this EVO and iphone4. Is the battery a huge thing for not owning a EVO. Is iPhone 3.5 small screen a reason to not own a iPhone. Trust me I know there's a hole lot more to this fight But I'm lost! i4 has face time but only on wifi with other iPhones only. Is that in other closed graden thing going on. Evo has free sprint nav, tv and google goggles. But what's killing me is this battery thing on the evo.
-
Evo will be irrelevant in 5 months while the iphone will continue its dominance
truth hurts, get mad
-
sooo...the evo is better because it has an hdmi output? lololol stop reaching kid...the screen resolution shits on the evos and that gyro technology shits on evo...u mad?
-
i love my iphone 3gs and for now have no plans to buy the new one only b/c i dont get wi-fi where i live...otherwise...its a big HELL YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
funny how this article had a HOWEVER for each EVO thing but forgot to however the lack of support for video over anything but wifi. I have evo and 3gs and I will have both evo and iphone 4, and im telling u unbiasely: EVO > iphone 4. even thogh ill have both and love both!

Apple is clearly the industry leader and everyone else follows what they do
-
clearly the industry leader and everyone follows what they do..... what?
there is nothing that impressive about the 4g. they've practically had two years development time (since the 3gs is practically a 3g with minor tweaks) to design this and i thought it'd offer more wow factor. sure is a well polished device in your hand but the evo tops it in numerous ways. flash.... screen size...handy kickstand...fm tuner....the 4g network is a huge bonus. it definately in some ways is a better phone then the iphone 4. in a few ways the iphone 4 is better too.
I decided to buy both devices. I joined sprint yesterday and got the evo and i'll be getting an iphone 4 too since im so used to iphones and still devoted to them.
really i feel the only downside to the iphone 4 is att's **** data network. most areas are still on edge. its pathetic. im not waiting until 2012 to have 4g. i wish to hell they offered an iphone on sprint. then i'd get rid of AT&T and say goodbye for life.

I was hoping they would come with gorilla glass, instead they now have double the glass to break (both front and back). Watch this video if you want to see gorilla glass in action on dell streak:

try to give any stats kid... no one here thinks Evo is better...

HTC EVO 4G is better and the best by far.
EVO 4G video chats over 3G and 4G, and over WiFi. EVO 4G is superior. iPHone4 ONLY chats over Wifi. iPhone SUCKS bigtime.
EVO 4G operates over 3G network and 4G network. iPhone ONLY 3G. Again HTC EVO 4G is superior.
EVO 4G allows 8 laptops to connect to the internet through it's hotspot. iPhone connects ZEROOOOOO laptops, NO CONNECTIONS AT ALL. Again HTC EVO 4G is Superior.
EVO 4G has HDMI outlet, iPhone does NOT. EVO 4G is again Superior.
EVO 4G battery can be changed in a second, iPhone can't replace battery. Again EVO 4G is superior.
EVO 4G 8mp camarra, iPhone 5mp camarra. Again HTC EVO 4G Superior. Stop the BUT, BUT...BUT...nonsense. Proof is in the facts we can see and feel not in iPhone excuses by the fanboys.
EVO 4G email is the best, iPhone email is a mixup and confusion. Again EVO 4G is superior.
EVO 4G many GPS choices FREE, iPhone pay $99. Again EVO 4G is superior.
iPphone superiority can't be stated, can't be seen, can't be red, can't be put on paper, it's only in the fanboys' statement, i.e., "Android 8mp, iPhone 5mp, BUT....BUT....BUT THEN AGAIN...HOWEVER...BUT...UMMM...HOWEVER....UMMM..."
LMAO at the aaplheads, that are paying higher price for very inferior product that is iPhone4. AAPL made $800 million just from servicing garbage quality iPhone battery.

iPhone battery sucks, really sucks.
iPhone battery sucks so bad that you can't replace the battery.
iPhone battery sucks so bad that customers had to make AAPL $800 million last year just servicing SUCKY iPhone battery. Don't believe in the AaplHeads hype, believe in the facts.

This article stated all the BETTER points about HTC EVO 4G, due to lack of iPhone better points the article writer/AapleFanboy had to downplay the HTC EVO 4G superiority by stating, "BUT...HOWEVER...BUT...BUT THEN AGAIN....HOWEVER....HOWEVER...HOWEVER".
Only superiority statement for iPHone I have heard in the lack of any evidance is, "HOWEVER....BUT....HOWEVER...BUT....BUT...HOWEVER".Notice also, everytime iPhone MALFUNCTIONS the blame goes to the third party, i.e., Adobe, WiFi, ATT, Apps and etc...etc...
Bye..Bye...iPHone...AAPL, walk back to the caveman's world.

EVO? REALLY? WHY IS THIS QUESTION EVEN BEING ASKED?
IPHONE 4
I rather see a 3.5" RETINA SCREEN rather than an oversized mediocre screen (for a cellphone thats usually in my pocket). EVO owners will look ridiculous on a call, might as well use iPad as a phone lol.
and the facetalk over wifi, tethering...simple fix....JAILBREAK!
Plus we keep the unlimited internet and get tethering for only $30.00 on data, never had problems with ATT here in LA, our sprint reception sucks here.
cant jailbreak an EVO huh?
Gryoscope, only apple is good enough to add it first.
As for other things like front facing camera and multitasking which wasnt done by them first, as they said THEY DID IT RIGHT!
Friends who got EVO are going back to sprint to switch to new iphone cause theyre EVO dies in only 4 hours (no wonder you guys complain about battery removable and replaceable by user) and he tested it on 4G area,(slightly faster than 3G HA). Plus that **** is HUGE in you pocket (TACKY).
Apps, come on please, apple owns that even if you say its restricted, it has all the apps that are needed and if it doesnt just jailbreak.
iMovie and FaceTalk blows Qik out of the water. EVO tried thats all i can say.
I'll give one thing to EVO, the HDMI output. but thats it.
and Android is nice but still sluggish and iphone is a lot more useful, quicker, easier, and can be cleaned up easily with folders, add themes with winterboard, etc. Android is just okay (who gives a **** about Flash, saw it on an ex-EVO owner and its slow, buggy, and useless to use on phone except for videos- flash videos even slower.
Money wise the iphone is more affordable. $200.00 after mail-in-rebate for only 8gb out of box. that just sucks going through a rebate and spending more just to get to match the iphone's 32GB. i like that the memory is not removable on iphone cause that way you dont loose the little micro cards that when i owned a phone with microsd cards, i never took out anyway.
IPHONE 4 is the choice, no question about it, iPhone haters need to own one before they try to justify their failed attempts at a better phone.

Evo 4 will be gone cus htc is making phones as the technology gets better and reliesing new phones all the time and not once a year but more importantly that tech is ease of use the iPhone is nice for this but really it's preference so get what you want. What's nice about user servicable batteries is custom battery doors with extended batteries for those that NEED it
-
I have an Evo and honestly u can't even browse text and listen to music without the music skipping it's a piece of ****.
-
LOL you got that right.... you can hang the evo on your living room as your tv..lol
-
I got the Evo and loving it, I can actually make phone calls now! AT&T SUCKS!
-
sooo..again the evo is better because it has an hdmi output? lolol...the iphone shits on the evos screen resolution...has better fps for 720p video...gyro technology...more talk time etc...yet the evo is better because u can make it a hotspot for laptops, and video chat over 3g? HA!
you fail, try again.
-
Well said. My wife has the new Evo but can't keep her hands off my 3GS. She will really flip when I get my i4. I jailbreak and unlock my iPhones and use it all over the world. Try that with your Evo and with jailbreak I my iPhone is limitless in what it can do. If I can think about doing it, I'll fund an App that does it either from the App store or Cydia.

Edit: sorry about a few typos.

Probably one of the worst trolls I've yet to see. Try harder fan boy. I ain't even mad either.
