not trying to flame but the above example is not a fair comparison. keep in mind that HD means nothing more than quantity of pixels, not quality. so just because it has an 8 megapixel sensor, doesn't mean that the image quality is better (in fact, sometimes it can make it worse).

both devices need to be recording at the same resolution (720x480, since i assume that is the max of the Incredible), without both at the same resolution, there is no point in comparing as you wouldnt compare the image clarity of a 1080p camcorder to that of a standard-def handycam, no contest. or at the very, very least, take screen caps from both of them playing at 480 on YouTube.

seeing the blue in the sky is due to the aperture of the Evo being slightly less open due to it focusing on a different part of the image at the time (notice that everything else is darker on the Evo, and so a bright sky is more viewable). with these type of cameras, they are constantly adjusting to try to make sure as much as the image is viewable as possible.

to have a real comparison, all of these things would need to be controlled:
- both recording at the same resolution
- a very controlled light source (inside with very bright lights)
- both phones secured and stationary right next to each other

give me all of these and put the videos side-by-side and then anyone can be the judge.

other than that, i do believe that the Evo's camera will be better than that of most and I can't wait to pick this phone up! although i do wish that OEMs would stop trying to up the megapixel count and focus on putting in more quality sensors that can actually compare to any non-camera phone digital camera. but then again, most people don't understand that more pixels ≠ better quality, so i guess there's no point.
