Re: Sick of my Evo already.

I came from a TP2 (with MaxSense) to an EVO and I'm considering going back. I literally watched 10% of my battery life drain in 10 minutes off a fresh full charge. I was only reading an article on engadget. (Yes, I have ATK. Yes, I have everything else turned off)

Android in itself is buggy at best. I've hit the 'Messaging' button and it opens the web browser??? Sometimes, the OS gets stuck in between panels and needs to be reset. I also miss the lack of hardware keys for phone and end call. It needs some SERIOUS power management, but I feel that's a ways off. Even Froyo doesn't address the power concerns. Oh and the speaker when watching movies is also horrible. I turned every single volume control I had up and still could barely hear it.

On a good note, there are PLENTY of apps at my disposal. And Android is VERY polished with plenty of eye-candy. It's unfortunate that you have to carry a second battery around.

Alas, I wish the HD2 was on Sprint. I love the specs of this phone, but it's got some serious 'deal breaker' draw backs that I can't overlook.
