Now I am not as much into CDMA as when I actually had Sprint but I've seen the rezound and honestly I've grown to dislike Sense quite a bit. It's such a resource hog, some apps don't work on it, and those widgets are so clunky. Everything is over the top. Sense 4 is quite an improvement and I actually like it, I actually use the Sense 4 clock on any ROM I flash. I'm a themed AOSP kinda person though. I basically throw Nova themed with icons I like and a transparent genie widget and transparent power widget etc... so it looks really nice and clean and FAST, I mean I throw AOKP when I can, hands down the best ROM imo on any phone.

But I digress. I think it's stupid to compare exynos to krait. I'll be getting an SGS3, but haven't decided if I'll get the american 2GB ram version or intl exynos version. My opinion is that the Sprint SGS3 will run "better" than the Evo LTE because touchwiz is a lot lighter than Sense and ironically they gave more RAM to the phone that needs it less (I don't know why the sense framework uses so much damn RAM). It's the same SoC, basically the same specs. 2GB ram is so stupid on a phone, I never suffer low ram issues on 1gb and I have like 10 apps open, lol.

That article was pretty arbitrary. It's a matter of preference. These days HTC is looking more and more like Apple with no removable battery and no SD card slot (although I think the Sprint version might have an SD slot?) and locked bootloader (so stupid) that you either lose your warranty to unlock thru the htc dev crap or you can't even do that on the ATT variant. The devs had to hack that shit.

So yeah , SGS3 vs Evo LTE. Same shit under the hood.
agreed on Verizon and HTC not having removable batteries. ugh, that's just makes no sense to me. Sense 3.6 is a resource hog for sure but the custom roms do a great job removing some of the bloat and speeding it up quite a bit. Plus I love Apex and use that alot these days. Sense 4 is an improvement for sure and I've tried some of the betas out there for the Rezound. The SGS3 should be great as well. I just like the hd lcd screens more so I really like the Evo LTE screen.
