To note, I would read up on specific device issues and not generic ones.

For example, rootlinux, have actually used the evo lte and gs3? Because your response seems to be more towards other HTC and other Samsung devices, not these ones in specific.

Also make sure you are comparing sprint gs3 because the international gs3 has completely different processor.

Amamba - the easiest way is to just buy it on sprint, then return it within 14 days andbuy it at a 3rd party. Nothing substitutes hands on experience.

Though overall the things you mentioned can be tested on store display models too. load up apps on the evo lte and open a bunch of them and see how it does multitasking. Then install an app that checks signal strength and compare both of them side by side on signal strength.
