So I'm due for an upgrade of my EVO 4G and I can't seem to find any information on new phones coming out for Sprint. I know there are a few people, sherm and IMEX who are Sprint lovers. Which is going to be the next best phone or should I even consider waiting for the new Iphone 5? I love my android but after almost 2 years it's definitely seen it's better days.

Sprints 3G is very meh, so I would definitely go for something w/ 4G. Right now you're best bet is probably the Galaxy S2.

I have the iPhone on Sprint and its great, when connected to Wi-Fi, but the 3g is pretty shitty here.

IMO, I'd wait it out a bit.

This. Not really any other options on Sprint.

I'll be getting the iPhone 5, I believe it is slated for a June release. Our contract isn't up until August or September.

I maybe doing this. I love my android and I love android in general. Have a android tablet also but I think I'm ready for something new. Doesn't help that my 2 year old Ipod touch just decided to act like it's possessed turning on and off and on and off.

Sounds like you need to stop buying junk that doesn't matter.

I have no idea he's on ATT and just got a new phone when we got back from deployment. We dont mix bills(other than housing) so I don't pay attention. I don't want to switch from Sprint. I pay 116 a month for 2 phones w/ unlimited everything.

Oh well nevermind then. I figured his contract might be up soon, then he could wait and buy the iphone 5, then buy you the iphone 4 with the price drop.

Sprint doesn't have any good phones because their service blows.

Hope this helps.

The service is actually good. If you live in the sticks then that's your problem. I've never once had a problem with service with them.

I love my sprint service. Unlimited everything is great and the 3G in Columbus works great for me. We have to get a signal booster for our house in blacklick but that was free and let's us receive calls in and around our home. I currently have the samsung epic but will upgrade to an iPhone next January.

The new EVO 4G LTE starts pre-orders at the beginning of May.

I haven't heard too much about it, other than it will be their first LTE device and is supposed to be nice and slim with a sweet screen. The new Galaxy Nexus will be out soon, too.

I would keep an eye out on CTIA in May for any other new devices and more info about those. Sprint usually announces big launches at CTIA or right around that time.

I'm kind of in the same boat. Still on my EVO 4g, ready to upgrade, but nothing out there worth $200-300 and locking in for 2 years.

Sorry, I'll try harder to make you laugh in the future.

Just kidding. Fuck off.
