Re: EVO vs Epic.. Thinking of Evo, need opinions

Seems to me like the best time to buy a phone from sprint is to wait till the next one comes out.

Right now Evo seems better better but think about it, when the evo came out it had lots of problems too.

Now that it had a lot of updates and development it seems better than the new Epic. But by the time the next phone comes out the epic may have been greatly upgraded too.

I have had my touch for 2 years and it turns into a better phone every few months as the software gets better, which is why I'm leaning towards the Epic due to the faster hardware.

Durability seems to go towards the Epic as well because its lite so is less likely to break when dropped, and the screen seems more durable from what people are saying technically.

Also no matter what anyone says there are some times when you will wish you had a keyboard, (the rest of the time no need to slide it out, its still thin.)

Call quality seems to be better on the Evo from what I hear, but I think that may be fixed with updates to the radio (am I stupid to think this?)

The Gps seems to be a hardware issue and may never be as good as the evo, but it seems to be good enough. Doesn't have to be perfect right?

Evo is sexier with its looks and big screen, but that may just mean people are always going to be scheming to steal it or jump me.

Also I hear the Evos are out of stock anyway so you can't even get one.

Leaning towards the Epic right now but the call quality is my only concern. I've read online with some people that have tested extensively that the Evo wins hands down. Do you guys think it will be improved with software updates?
