Sprint’s latest smart phone, the HTC Evo, is the first of its kind to come with a 4G network. 4G has only been a buzzword in the mobile industry over the past year. If you’re not much of a techie, however, you may be wondering: what does it mean?
To put it in simple terms, “4G” refers to the fourth generation of mobile cell phone communications. This innovation only improves from the not so bad 3G network. This, basically, means that users of 4G technology can access, surf, and download, upload, or stream data from the web faster than on any other Wi-Fi-enabled mobile device. For instance, this device has data transfer rates of up to 100 megabytes per second, for anyone on a fast-moving vehicle, while users at a stationary point can have up to one gigabyte per second. The smart phone can also serve as a Wi-Fi hotspot for up to eight other web-enabled devices with the help of a pre-installed application from Sprint.
The HTC Evo is equipped with a 4.3-inch touch screen with a 216 pixel per inch density. It’s designed to handle HD video content, real-time streaming, audio playback, and overall multimedia experience on the go. The Evo will feature two cameras, a front facing camera with 1.3 MP that is perfect for video chat and a rear facing 8 MP camera that can record video at 720p as well as dual flash. User will be able to broadcast live from both cameras.
Just like many other Android based devices, it also has a very typical display. It has four main touch-sensitive buttons (Home, Main, Back, and Search) that can be used to navigate its contents, features, applications, and functions. It will feature a processing speed of 1GHz, 512 MB of RAM, 1GB of internal storage and like previously mentioned will run on Android 2.1. It does however, come with a microSD slot that supports 32 GB of memory. With many other great features that were not mentioned, the HTC Evo is set to be one of the if not the best Android powered devices on the market.
HTC Evo batteries are 3.7-volt, the 1500 mAh battery can easily be replaced, recharged, or interchanged among other HTC products. Due to the taxing demand of its multimedia features and 4G services, however, battery life is one of the smart phone’s weak areas. Not to worry, though – batteries, in fact, are among many types of HTC Evo accessories that can be bought to supplement or improve the smart phone’s features, functionality, and even personality. Among the most popular accessories is the HTC Evo case, built to protect and conveniently carry the smart phone. Cases come in many different styles, colors, and designs.
