The recently-released HTC Evo generated a considerable amount of buzz before it was released, but did the Android phone live up to expectations? This article will make an outline of the best features of the phone-for example, its 4.3 inch touchscreen, its dual cameras, and its “Leap” multitasking manager. Each of these features adds considerably to the phone’s capabilities The HTC Evo is, of course, not without its drawbacks-complaints include a low battery life-but it’s feature set rises above these faults to provide a very capable Android phone.

The multitasking manager, “Leap”, allows users to simultaneously view all of their running applications by easily pinching the screen. The HTC Evo also ships with HTC’s Sense user interface, featuring a Friend Stream widget that collects information from Facebook, Flickr, and Twitter and aggregates it into a single interface.

The HTC Evo also features a 4.3 inch capacitive touchscreen that displays high definition content. This is one of the largest touchscreens available on smartphones today. While the size does add to the form-factor of the phone, the HTC Evo’s ability to view and edit high definition makes the larger size more than an acceptable sacrifice for the video content that the HTC Evo provides. This is a phone built for streaming and editing high definition video; the phone goes so far as to include a kickstand that swings out of the back, allowing the HTC Evo to be propped on a desk or table for extended viewing.

The HTC Evo features an 8-megapixel camera, allowing for high definition photos and videos to be captured. Videos can be edited directly from the phone and then rerouted in high definition to a compatible television. The HTC Evo additionally offers a front-facing camera, allowing users to make use of one of the several video chatting apps available on the Android Marketplace as well as simplifying the process of taking quick self-portraits.

Third party manufacturers have been quick to begin to produce a variety of HTC Evo accessories, including the HTC Evo holster and HTC Evo screen protector. It’s important to realize that a large screen such as the HTC Evo’s should have a durable screen protector to fend off pesky scratches and nicks. Additionally, the HTC Evo supports microSD cards, allowing users to store the video and audio they capture onto removable media. The HTC Evo supports most microSD cards, but is limited to 32 GB cards (while new 64 GB cards are now available on the market). The phone itself includes an 8GB microSD card for immediate storage capabilities.

The HTC Evo also makes use of Sprint’s new 4G service, affording it access to some of the fastest internet available on mobile phones. While Sprint’s 4G service is not yet widely available (currently this service has been rolled out in less than fifty cities country-wide), this phone’s ability to connect to 4G will allow it to remain relevant for several years of use. Phone users can expect up to a download speed of 2-15 MB per second, which is signiifcantly faster than other services when it comes to streaming  high definition videos without downtime.
