Sprint has announced Today at the International CTIA Wireless event the new HTC EVO 3D. Now I can finally see HTC`s innovation at work after a series of devices lunched recently with the same technical specifications as about one year ago. This is a direct competitor for the LG Optimus 3D as you will see from the below details:
-- DISPLAY: 4.3-inch 3D LCD capacitive touch QHD 960 x 540 pixels screen
-- CPU: Dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 1.2 GHz processor.
-- MEMORY: 1GB RAM.
-- STORAGE: 4GB for internal, microSD card slot up to 32GB.
-- CAMERA: Primary - 5MP dual-lens camera for 3D photo taking, video recording, 2D (up to 1080 in 2D, up to 720p in 3D, MPEG-4/H.264) and 3D (up to 720p, H.264 SEI).
Secondary - 1.3 MP, video chat, video calling.
-- CONNECTIVITY: 3G/4G WiMax, HSDPA, HSUPA, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, DLNA, Bluetooth 3.0 with A2DP, MHL port (micro-USB & HDMI), 3.5 mm headphone jack, A-GPS.
-- SENSORS: Accelerometer, Proximity
-- BATTERY: Li-Po 1730 mAh
-- MULTIMEDIA: touch sensitive buttons, dedicated camera key, 2D to 3D switch.

-- APPLICATIONS: Google Apps, social networking, YouTube 3D, Blockbuster On Demand.
The same as LG Optimus 3D, this device has a 3D glasses-free display. It is good to see a HTC model with 1GB of RAM, decent internal storage and with a processor which has a higher frequency than 1 GHz. It appears that this processor has asynchronous processing. This system makes each core to work independently and thus improving the battery life. The battery is a very strong one by the way, probably the largest one seen in a smartphone. There are no details for any graphic module but since this has the new Snapdragon generation inside I believe is a strong one. HTC Evo 3D arrives with some integrated applications from Sprint. One is the integrated Google Voice with Sprin`s services and the other is Blockbuster On Demand. This last one is an application which offers access to a more than 100,000 movies catalog.
In the end I can see a good news from HTC and I hope they will release an European version of this model.
