Re: Best android phone for sprint

Well, "best" is a rather subjective (or is it objective?) term, but I have owned exactly five Android phones for Sprint, including:

 

Evo

Epic

Intercept

Moment

Hero

 

My favorite, hands down, is the Evo. In fact, I like it more than my iPhone, which I still have through AT&T until my contract expires. I like the big screen, it is very fast both on and offline, and it has some great capabilities, many of which have yet to be fully utilized through. The only downside I found is that the battery life is not very good at all.

 

The Epic is also a good phone, with a great display, perhaps the best display I've seen yet. Also not a great battery life, but it is a fast phone on and offline.

 

The Intercept was HORRIBLE. It was slow and constantly choppy.

 

The Moment was a decent phone, fairly fast to move through and a good display. I'm just not a fan of the sliding keyboards,

 

The Hero was also a pretty good phone, but I hated the trackball. It made it hard for me to find a case it would fit in.

 

Of all the phones I've ever had, my Evo is my favorite, followed by the Epic, and then the iPHone, the latter of course not being available on Sprint.

I use the Evo.  The latest update really helped with battery life.

Was that latest update sometime in the past few weeks? If so, I can't wait to FINALLY get my Evo back and check it out. The battery life has been my only complaint.

Re: Best android phone for sprint

I will have to suggest the EVO. I switched to Sprint from AT&T just so I could have the EVO.  I like the EVO so much, I wish there was a  CDMA version of it. After having the EVO for two weeks, my wife, who had an iPhone, decided she wanted an EVO. So back to Best Buy. Then my daughter saw it and decided she needed one. I made her buty her own (from Best Buy).

 

I have had the EVO since June and I am VERY happy with it. I will start developing AIR applications for it this winter, as time permits.

 

I will also add that I love the Cyanogen ROM.

The Transform is just the new version of the Moment. It's the exact same phone. No change in hardware at all. Although, there is a bonus: Sprint ID packs bog the phone down with unnecessary apps, and short of rooting it, there is no way to disable them. Avoid the Transform and Zio.

Look at the Optimus S if you don't mind the lack of a physical keyboard.
