Evo Demo Phone at Best Buy

[nuprotocol]

Hey guys, I was at my local BB and they had two nonworking Sprint Evo’s on hand. It was good to feel how big the phone truly is. Like everybody is saying, the phone is really massive. I have pretty big hands and it fills my whole hand. Lol

Although it’s nonworking, the BB Mobile Rep said that it’s close to the actual weight of the real phone. If so, I like the weight, it feels a lot better than the HD2. I took some photos using my TP2 and tried to do a video as well. I never understood why all of the videos we’ve seen show the phone so close.

Well while trying to take video, the phone is so big that it just feels up the whole camera. I had to extend my arm all the way out so it wouldn’t look like I was filming right on top of the phone. Anyway, check out the photos and video.

Maybe some of your BB's have demos on hand. The ones here weren't working, but atlest it gave me a general idea of the size and feel.

ppcgeeks.com doesnt accept mp4 for the video. How should I attach it? Rapidshare or Megaupload?

Yes, it's worth running to your BB to check it out. That way you have an Idea on how big the phone is, and the way it feels. The back feels kind of like the TP2, but a lot smoother and I love the weight of it.

Call first "dabackwoodboy" thats a pretty hefty drive if they dont have it there. lol

I went to my sprint stores trying to check our a demo and NONE of the Sprint Stores have it yet. However, BestBuy has it. lol Go figure..

I hope its not as heavy as the TP2 LOL. My arm gets tired when I'm holding it to my hear.

Wow - the hysteria is building. We are getting excited to hold the mock-up! lol

I even think iPhone fanboys would be jealous!
