Sprint Regains the Smartphone crown with the EVO 3D

Today at CTIA, Sprint announced the HTC EVO 3D, a phone that everyone expected the Thunderbolt to be, but even better. The phone has yet another version of Sense, which is looking better than ever, and it has a dual-core processor. This is the first phone by HTC to feature a dual-core processor, which happens to be a Qualcomm Snapdragon one with each core at 1.2 Ghz. Of course, the phone is 3D featuring two five-megapixel cameras that can shoot 720p 3D video and 1080p 2D video. The phone also has the ability to view YouTube videos in 3D if enabled. The EVO 3D will be launching in June on Sprint's WiMax 4G network. The phone is slimmer in width than the EVO 4G but has similar thickness and height, so this device will be a little more pocketable, but still large as it features a 4.3 inch display. Sprint also announced the EVO View 4G, the rebranded version of the HTC Flyer. What is shocking is the Flyer has a single-core 1.5 Ghz processor, which is slower than the phone it will be launching with. I believe that the device will be launching with Android 3.0 Honeycomb, but I am not positive as the Flyer was originally supposed to with the updated version of Android Gingerbread (2.4). Be sure to bookmark and share this post, and I will se you guys soon!
