Review: HTC EVO 4G VS. iPhone 4S VS. Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Since the release of HTC EVO 4G LTE, it has been remarked as one of the best phones to hit Sprint shelves. But at the same time, the debut of Samsung Galaxy Nexus gave a hard blow on HTC EVO 4G LTE, and the availability of Apple iPhone 4S also joined in the competition. Let's take a look at the chart below.

From the chart we see that the specifications between HTC EVO 4G and Galaxy Nexus are quite similar. The obvious difference is user interface and design language. If you want to experience what an Android phone looks like, Galaxy Nexus is the first one to recommend. But there are also some HTC fans out there who happen to love the Sense UI, in which case the Evo would likely be the right choice. The design language is rather strong on the Evo 4G LTE, with soft touch gray, red metal, and shiny black plastic comprising the backside of the handset. The GalNex is a bit more reserved. And still, there’s the iPhone 4S to consider. Sure, the display is much smaller (3.5-in vs 4.65/.7-in), but the Retina display easily rivals much larger 720p displays. And few can resist the beautiful minimalist design of the iPhone and the intuitive functionality of iOS.

We cannot say which phone is better but we can gain lots of fun no matter which one is picked up. All three phones are with amazing video playback effect, so you can convert video to HTC EVO 4G, play video on iPhone 4S and enjoy video on Samsung Galaxy Nexus freely.
