I, and many others, previously stated we aren't going to buy into the EVO 3D hype. The Kingdom looks to be the alternative device for those of us being practical with our next phone upgrade. Not sure if the EVO Shift form factor will go over well with the masses.

Still, I am not sure where to go with this...?

If you're down for a single core, so be it.

If it's $100 cheaper I am.

Maybe they'll name it the EVO 2 Global.

I don't really see what difference 4GB makes when you can just drop a 32GB MicroSD card in there for a bit extra $.

You would be losing 3d and dual cores, and maybe ffc-sounds jr to me

I have a 32GB card in my EVO now and still get low memory. Many apps still cannot be moved to the sd card. And some apps still use some internal memory even though they are on the sd card. Good example is yahoo messenger with video chat.

sure it will if it has a sim card.
tp2 has one and it works just fine on any gsm network... even att and tmobile after you unlock it. (no 3g w/tmo i believe) just buy a pre paid sim in whatever country you are going to.

You are aware every version of Android is written for single core right? There wont be anything to fully take advantage of a dual core processor for at least a year. So its pretty much useless right now.

**brownhornet** · 05-06-2011, 09:00 AM

I mean I know people are excited about the whole dual core thing, but you DO realize that the second core isnt even being used yet right?

**derfnoslen** · 05-06-2011, 12:27 PM

I'm going with the 3d.

logic88 · 05-06-2011, 12:34 PM

Ice Cream Sandwich is coming soon.

**derfnoslen** · 05-06-2011, 01:34 PM

If it has the honeycomb features built in then I might wait for something else because I'm sure the Evo .3d won't have in for awhile
