AnonD-33543, 17 Apr 2012Hello dude can u plz suggest me a good android phone?? it w... moreDude go for the evo 3d why
1. Its more powerful than the galaxy s
2. It will never get ICS.
3.Samsung touch ui sucks. Htc sense is the best ui on the market.
4. Price point could be the same.
I know you have to make some compromises but take the htc.As i've used both phones b4.
Note that smartphones these days dont give you much battery life,it all depends on ur usage.

A friend of mine has told me that you could also consider the Samsung Galaxy W I8150, which is selling at a very low price now.

There is no easy answer to which phone is the best one that suits your requirements.
The Evo 3D is excellent value for money. The downside is the battery life which is poor. It has a 1730mAh battery but it is inferior quality and doesn't last long because the Sense UI draws a lot of power. I purchased a 3rd party 1900mAh battery which gives about 25% extra life. The Evo also has a poor sound chip and doesn't sound very good, but meets all your other requirements.
The only other phone I would recommend for what you require, (and not just because I own one), is the Samsung Galaxy S. It has excellent battery life, I get 5 days from a charge, an excellent sound chip, and a very good camera. The Galaxy S III should be released in a few days time, so the price of the Galaxy S should fall soon after. It might be worth waiting.
I can't tell you what phone to buy, but if I was looking for a good budget Android phone then these two would be at the top of the list.
I hope that helps.

I have had the phone for a few weeks now.Its a beautiful phone and everything is running smooth. The only things I dont like about it is : 1- the battery life is not what u might expect, but gets u through one day of continuos use. 2- its heavy and bulky and hard to carry around. It wasnt much of a problem in winter, I used my jacket pocket, but i donno what to do now as its getting warmer and i am not wearing a jacket. Its too big to fit into my jeans pocket.

Freefaller, 15 Apr 2012Attn: All those who (like me) purchased this phone from Asd... moreso it seems like the issue is your phone..:)
and there's a lot who prefer custom OS for androids..since the custom ICS and sense 3.6 is already available for HTC Evo 3D, i think it's a good buy..there are a lot of this for sale that has no HTC warranty, so rooting the phone won't void any warranty..meaning this is already a good choice for those who's thinking of buying it, and can live with the custom OS for it, since everywhere i read the custom OS for this phone is great..

Attn: All those who (like me) purchased this phone from Asda.
I ran a Benchmark test on my phone and discovered that it is identified as a HTC Shooter.
It appears that this phone was only released in the US, and Wal-Mart, which is the parent company of Asda, have dumped their remaining stock on the UK market to get rid of it. Spec wise, it is the same as the Evo 3D spec, but the question arises with any future update to the Firmware. Will the phone be recognised as a Evo 3D or not, because if it isn't then you won't be able to update it.
Only time will tell.

Me, 13 Apr 2012wanna buy this phone but freefaller make me think twice. so... moreIts good. The only thing about it is the battery which is just average. Which would improve with ICS 4.0 and new sense UI which will arrive soon. Above that everything else works great for it price.

the ice cream sandwich 4.0 will be released with HTC SENSE 3,6 not 4.0 , still good because developers will simply add htc sense 4.0 to evo and other phones..i mean its available right now for rooted mobiles ics 4.0 and sense 4.0 , ive tried it,its goooood
just a note, ,i set the data rate in the camera app(htc amaze app) to 4mb/s and recorded video it works,ive tried up to 10mb/s and it works using the original 8gb microsd class 4 that came with the phone.
i now bought a new SanDisk Mobile Ultra microSDHC 32GB, Class 6 (its ultra which means 200x which means it supports up to 30mb/s in read and write) ,it have the similar speed of a class 10 non ultra.
i recorded videos and achieved the max data rate of the camera app which is 20mb/s
so frame rate; 30fps and data rate 20mb/s in htc amaze app which i amazing , so smooth and bugfree, lagg-free video
so conclusion, buy another microsd with class 10 or class 6 but ultra,video will better,camera take faster pics,apps faster,faster loading time...everything smoother

@ All those who like to vilify me for my views.
I don't hate this phone, in fact I quite like it.
What I am trying to do is point out the problems I have discovered so that anyone thinking of purchasing this model will get an idea of it's shortcomings.
The phone has a MAJOR problem with battery management due to it's outdated Firmware and outdated Software. These two problems are well known to the HTC engineers but they have never bothered to address them. That is shameful ! The phone is STILL stuck with Android v2.3.4 and Sense 3.0, and if reports that I have read elsewhere on the Internet are true then it won't be updated with ICS and Sense 3.6 until August or September.
Finally, I would like the Fanboys out there to have a look at the HTC Homepage...
http://www.htc.com/uk/about/
...Where it clearly states, and I quote "That’s why we encourage, embrace and celebrate users sharing their perspectives. The strength of the HTC community lies in its authenticity; it’s the most accurate and honest voice of real-world understanding available".

First of all, I don't own a Galaxy S II (but it is on my wish list). I only own the 1st Gen Galaxy S.
Secondly.. Thank you for (unknowingly) supporting what I have been saying; that the Evo Firmware is seriously flawed. Even you have stated that you had to install a custom kernel to improve the battery life.
