Oh my lawd not again :banghead:

I'll answer this time though. I had the Evo LTE and I don't regret leaving it behind. It was a solid device (even though it was prone to bending) but the overall experience is better on the S3. Samsung is a lot more dev friendly compared to HTC which takes its sweet time releasing source and making sure exploits to gain s-off are harder to achieve.

I went back and forth between which to get and I'm convinced the GS3 was the right choice.

Nope.... Sense still causes performance problems like before and makes the phone sluggish. You would hope by now that htc would improve upon sense from a performance and feature perspective but unfortunately no, or so it appears that way. Out of the box most people say that you have to root the phone and load a custom rom to make the phone what it should be. That right there is what made me get the sg3 instead as I usually just run stock with root and don't load custom roms (usually) so to have to do that initially kinda sucks for me.

No phone is perfect and all have their little annoyances you just choose what you can live with.

I had both. The SGS3 is better. Sprint is the problem.

I actually had the LTEVO last week and have no regrets about making the switch... the phone just was not on par with this beast despite having almost identical specs. multi tasking seemed difficult for the LTEVO and Radio on it was horrible.

To me the evo lte isnt even the s3 most competition. Id give the galaxy nexus that luxury.
