Unfortunately, the battery died way quicker, Samsung widgets aren't great, and there is no way to set a time out for my enterprise mandated lockscreen, although every other smartphone I have ever used can do that. And I barely ever use the hard keyboard. Go figure.

I just picked up a White Evo on Ebay.

Anyone want to buy a gently used Epic?
I agree bro...use whatever makes it best for what you need...problem is most of these Evo guys take cracks at the epic and the hardware is superior...but the Evo is also a great phone....also its just a phone....I just like to comment when peeps act like it matters most in the world...its a phone....my Epic is the best phone I have owned...and I have flashed many Evo's...I prefer the Epic hands down....but that is my choice....so nothing anyone says will change that.....I also dont need to toot the horn of the phone or say how other phones suck....I understand though that it is just a phone...I have real life shit that matters more...hell I never even check benchmarks unless I wanna toss out facts in rebuttal to nonsense...hence the comments over a simple thing like camera not working when on a phone call...I for one had never even tried it....nor did others until they probably came across this thread....all it did was let the trolls for my phone is better than yours start...I can always stoop down when needed....but facts usually always supercede "mine is better than yours"

As far as selling the epic...I am sure you will have no issue...hit up the bargain trader, xda, or ebay...it will be gone within minutes....

Oh and my battery life has never been an issue....heck just came off a 20 hour run.....but that varies on use and a lot of other things....but usually 10-15 hours life....plus I hae a spare battery .....which I feel is a need for any smartphone if you are using it heavy.....which I do.....samsung widgets....I dont use them...I use lp or adw and other widgets...lockscreen has never been an issue for me....but I understand your issue....

Good luck with the new Evo!
