Looks like it will be EVO LTE for me.

Am I the only one that plans on getting this phone? LTE in my area probably won't get turned on til around the time this comes out anyway.

Also, didn't ATT lock the bootloader for the HTC One X? I probably wasnt going to load ROMs on it anyway, but the non-removable battery is non negotiable for me.

While there was much excitement around the announcement of Samsung's Galaxy S III, certain aspects of the device were met with disappointment, in particular its Pentile AMOLED display. However, Samsung has defended its use of the subpixel layout — which uses one red and one blue subpixel for every two green ones, which can cause issues with image quality and color — telling MobileBurn that it continues to use Pentile for its AMOLED displays because they tend to have a longer lifespan. But given that most users only keep a device for around two years, we have to wonder whether it's worth the trade-off of longevity for quality. Of course, Pentile displays have been less of an issue in higher resolution devices like the Galaxy Note, but for pixel enthusiasts the Galaxy S III's display may still end up being a disappointment. As our own Vlad Savov explained in a recent editorial, "Pentile displays belong in the past."

I would leave Sprint. It's pretty common knowledge Verizon is the best coverage but worst or second worst phone selection,

I pre-ordered the EVO for 119 off of wirefly... I have 30 days to see how it is and if they turn on LTE out here in the Chicagoland area.

I was hesitant to reup, but the price was too much to pass on.

Read the reviews, and get back to me.

If you're committed to Sprint and have no plans on leaving, you should absolutely buy the Evo. It's well-designed, insanely fast, and ready for Sprint's HD Voice and LTE-filled future. I'd recommend it over the Galaxy Nexus and iPhone, the former because of its superior display and the latter because the Evo's ready for HD Voice and LTE.

As mentioned above, this device easily beats the rest of the Android devices on its chosen carrier and certainly trumps what HTC has done in the past with every other EVO. This smartphone is both thin and light, has the same HTC One features for on-the-surface images with the display being essentially impossible to tell apart from the glass that covers it, and the whole smartphone feels nice to hold in general. This is the Android smartphone to have if you don’t have the option at the moment to pick up any other HTC One device – pick it up soon!

The battery life here is pretty excellent, just like the HTC One X on AT&T and the HTC One S on T-Mobile, you’ve got the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 backing your whole system up with its ability to stay strong without draining the life out of your day via the battery. Count on this device to last you what it’s lasted us, that being 10+ hours a pop with heavy use, no problem. If you’re the type of person who only uses a device lightly during the day, don’t worry about charging it up except at night when you head to bed – always a good practice anyway.

The camera is first class, easily equalling what we’ve seen on the best smartphones on the market and exceeding the vast majority of smartphone and tablet cameras we’ve seen in the past as well. With a combination of powers from the HTC ImageSense chip and the Snapdragon S4 processor’s dedicated architecture for image processing, you’ve got both amazing video and photos coming your way all day long – and all night, too, with night-shot photos as well. Have a peek at our HTC EVO 4G LTE New Orleans ImageChip Tour post to see a massive amount of media from this device and have a peek at a few examples here below as well.
