HTC EVO, The Powerful Beast With Wimax Included. If you are looking for one of the best smartphones with multimedia capability, look no further. The HTC EVO is the beast of the beasts at the present. HTC created this with enough video capability to feel the need to include a kickstand. Read more here about this powerhouse you can hold in your hand.
With a huge screen area, a camera that takes photos clearer than you can see, and the fastest network connections available to mobile phones, you can easily get worked up over an HTC EVO 4G. This smartphone is also one of the larger ones. It is easy to see why with all the great stuff onboard. It is 4.8 inches tall, just barely under five inches. With a thickness of half an inch, it is easy to fit into tight spots if needed.
The camera in the HTC EVO is a shocking eight megapixel piece of photography equipment. Literally, it takes better quality pictures than your eyes will ever be able to tell from five megapixel cameras. The human eye can only distinguish more quality up to the five megapixel level. This is a camera for high definition video also. The EVO is good enough to hook up to a high definition television to watch your personal videos. There is even an HDMI connection included on the bottom of the smartphone. Cementing the total video package is the kickstand you can use to lay back and enjoy the screen.
Speaking of the screen, the HTC EVO has an impressive one. This is 4.3 inches of LCD display. It does all the touch screen acrobatics. Some of them are “pinch and zoom” ( also called “multi touch” ) and automatic switch from portrait to landscape modes. The screen is a capactive touch model, so no stylus will be needed to navigate the screen. The resolution is ahead of most smartphones. The numbers are 480 by 800 pixels. That is in the top category of clarity for smartphones in the world.
You can not talk about the speed of the HTC EVO without talking about WiMaX. WiMaX can be compared to Wi-Fi on steroids. It is easily the one reason you would buy this smartphone for. It is around 30 times faster than 3G and five to seven times faster than Wi-Fi. That is just the download speeds. WiMaX also goes much farther than Wi-Fi. The formal name for the WiMaX ability that the EVO has is “4G”. The EVO is first in the United States with this feature. Other smartphone models are catching up to this EVO technology as you read this.
The other power point concerning the HTC EVO is its processor. It is running a 1000 megahertz Snapdragon chip. This, combined with Android, makes operating the EVO quick and easy. No waiting on things to load or to stop operating. The Android operating system also brings nearly 100,000 applications to your EVO. You can practically do anything with it that you can do with your laptop.
Perhaps the only drawback to the HTC EVO is the limited choice of colors. There is black and white. The white model is the newer of the two. Both are available at this writing. Look for this smartphone at the Sprint store. The price is hovering around $190 dollars with a new account.
