The HTC EVO is the first Android device that is 4G ready and available on the Sprint network via manufacturer HTC. The EVO packed with a 1ghz snapdragon processor ( similar to recent HTC Android smartphones),4.3 inch touchscreen an 8mp camera with 720p video recording, 1.5mp front facing camera for video calls 8GB of internal storage, HDMI out port; all running Android 2.1. Lets take a look at how well HTC EVO Stacks up.

Hardware

The HTC EVO is a lovely looking device, granted it looks a little larger. The device feels comfortable in the hands and is well weighted. The addition of a kickstand also adds a different flare to the device, with 4G that allows for better mobile streaming and Video conferencing. The kickstand gives a HTC EVO a more natural fit for its function.

***VIDEO REVIEW***

Fring Test CAll

There is no native Android or HTC app for video calling. Fing is an app which you can download from the Android marketplace that does exactly that. The app support various video calling programs like yahoo messenger, live messenger, AOL, Skype and a few others. Simple add which of the services you use be it Skype, yahoo or AOL and you are good to go. You can video conference on 4g, 3g and Wifi with Fring.

In conclusion the HTC EVO is a top class Android smartphone, that rivals any other smartphone on the market. With a lovely large 4.3 touch screen, HDMI out, a solid 8mp camera and 720p video recording. There really isn’t much to ask for except for say better battery performance with is the one major draw back. This maybe be resolved with an upgrade to Froyo. I can’t wait for the expansion of sprints 4G service which I couldn’t test( no 4G in Boston yet. Cmon Sprint) In all the HTC EVO is the cream of the crop and I dare say the Smartphone put there that everyone should aim to beat.
