Detailed review
After owning EVO for year and a half, it's a good "upgrade". With improve maturity of Android OS and growth of Android Ecosystem, as today, iOS no longer hold any advantage over Android. If you are on a stable and well covered Sprint network area, this is the must have phone. However, given the reception performance in low signal area, you might be frustrated. This phone DOES still having a recovering problem going in-and-out of low signal areas.
