Sprint Epic 4G Review

After trying the EVO 4g i decided to try the EPIC.  Here’s my bad and likes about this phone.
Bad:
* This type of screen gives out great colors and contrast, but fonts are not as sharp as they should be due to the screen door effect of this type of screen
* Email app has no HTML (am i missing something here?)
* The dialer only shows one name at a time when you start typing
* I think the response time of the pixels is a little high cause you can notice ghosting.
* I would have preferred the home button to be on the far left.
* The wifi has lost connection a few times. Not sure if its a freak thingy or norm.
* Wish the 5mp version would be wide.
* They should have put the connections on the bottom. (if i put it on a car phone holder the cables stick from the top)
* I think the speaker is not loud enough.
* When you put the phone on the sofa it sits on the speaker which almost gets muted. Is it so hard to put the speakers like the iphone on the bottom of the phone ?
* The stupid action buttons. Was it so hard to have them actually either stay on all the time or have the symbols written on the body ?! why do they disappear ? i just dont get it.
* It takes forever to charge the battery, and with a phone that is power hungry you want to be able to quickly charge it.
The good:
* I think this screen has a much better touch hardware than the EVO.
* Excellent Keyboard. (I think better than the TP2)
* Good form factor considering the keyboard.
* Seems pretty responsive, but i didn’t load it up with apps yet.
I Couldn’t stand the screen it truly really bothered me so i took it back.
Comments are welcome.
