The Sprint 4G systems used on the EVO provides a higher capacity broadband capability than the older 3G mobile devices including the iPhone. The Evo is the first phone that enables the user to video chat without having to be on a Wi-Fi connection. The 4G networks is about 10 times faster than the conventional 3G connection. The only drawback is that 4G is not as widely available as 3G at the current time.

In 2010 only about 30 countries offer the 4G network but there are more countries that will be releasing the 4G network in early 2011. Of course, when 4G connections are not available, the phone can still connect at 3G speeds. A great feature on the EVO is that you can share your 4G link with up to eight other devices simultaneously. Using a wireless network you can distribute your high speed 4G connection to laptops and other devices. A 4G linkage is similar in speed to a cable modem or DSL connection for your personal computer. It also compliments the high bandwidth internet capacity with its super fast 1 GHz processor.

Because of the strong processor, users will enjoy a better experience when it comes to heavy duty tasks such as video chat and gaming. The HTC EVO is the first device to use Qualcomm’s 1 GHz SnapDragon processor, which was specifically designed for 4G phones. EVO’s CPU works together with 512 MB of RAM and 1 GB of internal data storage to provide premium performance. There is also an 8 GB SD card for memory expansion. The massive, 4.3 inch, 400×800 high definition screen allows users to fully enjoy the phone’s outstanding capabilities in 720p resolution. The TFT LCD touch screen is reportedly the largest on the market. It also has a very neat built-in kickstand for a better viewing experience and with its focus system that automatically brings images and text into focus without any manual effort.

In addition to the 4G network and high-performance SnapDragon processor, the EVO is also loaded with many other nice features. It has 2 cameras, one on the front and one on the back. The main camera is found in the usual position while the secondary camera is front facing. The main camera has 8 MP with flash and the ability to record HD video.
