Sprint announced epic 4g are crap and places them on enf of life status...
 

Sprint has announced our beloved epic will get the death penalty in october. I guess our phone is a piece of crap now. The bad thing is I don't want a phone that is labeled end of life as the stigma associated with it means I will be a laughing stock in the creed department. My upgrade is in november... anyone wantto trade their evo 3d for my epic 4g

um..if it gets the job done..why is it a piece of crap?

I have yet to see anyone laughing at anyone for the phone they use..

Realistically speaking the specs is same as the Nexus S..so as long as the Nexus S lives..so will the Epic...

sprint exchanged my brothers epic for the nexus.

You've never laughed at an iphone user??? I make sure I laugh at at least one every day. And if you can't see the humor check this out.

But I wouldn't laugh at an Epic for the record.

All phones eventually are discontinued. Spring didn't say they were crap. They simply are at end of life.

Drama much?

anybody that thinks this phone is crap is 90% a user who dont know squat what there doing and 10% dont know what there doing. wheres the proof of this statement op, link please?

Well let's face it the specs on the epic 4g was fine for high end a year ago. Today is another story. To be high end it has to have duel core, 4gigs of ram (onboard storage and sd is a plus) qhd display, and the latest overlay. Even the rumored epic 2 is only single core and the sg2 are duel cores. Notice the laked epic 2 pics did not say galaxy s 2 on it... so now the epic 4g and epic 2 are higher end mid range phones. Yes in its day the epic 4g was great but even duel cores by end of th year will be crap as qud cores will be out. I also hate to have anything other then a flagship phone.

All end of life means us that they aren't producing then anymore. The only people it affects are those who will need to get them replaced in the future. It doesn't even have bearing in how long they will be supported.

Even after end of life there will be plenty of refurbs available plus the phone will still be supported for a while. With 1ghz processor there are still updates that the phone will receive. By the time they stop supporting it most people will be eligible for upgrade or they can just continue using them like the people with the tp2. Plus if its rooted there's alot more things you can do to keep phone like new. It's not the end of the world. This happens all the time with phones. It's nothing new.

I was at the Sprint store having my EVO serviced and it was replaced with a Nexus (Score)! While I was there a woman had her Epic replaced with an E3D due to issues she was having.
