Thinking of leaving AT&T when my contract expires. Since the iPad was released I don't find myself that fascinated with the iPhone anymore. Perhaps after seeing the new phone at WWDC it might change my mind but "froyo" looks pretty amazing. Never been a fan of android but 2.2 looks fantastic, and my company gets 40% off sprint service compared to my 20% with AT&T. If you have the HTC EVO, how does it compare to the iPhone?
i was wondering about the Droid also, but i'm looking at the Droid Incredible for HTC for Verizon. i've been told it's the best Droid out there, it just came out a few weeks ago. anyone have any experience with it?
So the thing about the HTC evo is the awesome Sense UI (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCodXvFrz5E). It's a custom built skin HTC includes in all their non "Google Experience" phones. In order for their phones to include all the android updates (Including Froyo) they need to embed them into their Sense UI. This means it could take weeks or maybe even months later for all the SENSE updates to come out. I've used Android Phones without the sense UI and they felt kinda clunky imo. It's a perfectly fine UI compared to what the other Smartphones offer on the market right now but I prefer the simplicity of the iPhone UI The thing I like about the iPhone is that Apple controls every aspect of the hardware and software and this usually means it offers a better user experience. The HTC evo is a really awesome phone, but for now I'm sticking with the iPhone because of all the quality apps (and I don't just mean games) it offers.
If the Android will have the same quality apps and games we can get in the App store, I'll switch. Couple that with the smoothness of the iPhone OS and the seamless cohesion with the Mac ecosystem. With that said, I will have to ignore how awesome the hardware is from the HTC because I have to look at the whole picture and the whole "user experience". That's where Apple kicks ass for now.
