PhoneArena presents a hands-on look at the HTC EVO Design 4G on Boost Mobile.

I can't believe a phone like this with this type of build quality is available as a prepaid phone. They are really stepping it up

I remember when boost mobile was famous in 2007 to 2010 cause of the $50 plan and all the chirping thing it stop in 2011 with all the androids & black birdies & that sucks wish they would bring the chirping era good old era it was fun to be honest I really don't like android phones windows or iPhones but hey what can we do nothing the old good days are over :/

Well im a 32 year year old married WOMAN who finished my contract and is about to get one of these. I had a EVO with sprint and yes paid over 100.00 a month for the service im going to have the same service provider and a better phone for half yes HALF of the bill... And im not financially deprived im a RN just like saving money.. :) Thank u kid in basement that is a AWESOME phone.

Don't get me wrong, the HTC EVO Design is a beautiful device. I was actually going to purchase it but then I heard about the HTC EVO V which has a bigger screen(with Corning Gorilla Glass) and Dual Cores while being 1mm thinner...for the same price of $300. Knowing me I would've regretted purchasing this phone while knowing that a completely better device exists.

This phone looks really nice in person its good on YouTube and I'm jot even on 4g

[CrystalineIV]

go to settings, you will have an option to turn on 4g, just slide it. if you are in a big city (like me im in chicago) or have good coverage then it will work

@yellowflash1231 plus the dual 3d cams look pimp dual 5mp cams and dual led flash

I read a article that said that boost will throttle you data speed after 2.5gb, and also is on the boost mobile website

[Ricky]

Yes its true go on boost mobiles website and you will see the details

[malialik]

bro there is no comparison
s3 is a BEAST
but the evo design is pretty good too

[sorstudios]

Boost mobile plus this phone is the greatest thing ever.

[cscottturner]

Will the Boost version have the SIM card slot that the Sprint model does for GSM roaming outside the US?

[Fritz]

P.S. the virgin mobile phone is better right now, but they dont offer shrinkage, and i would expect more phones to be released soon on boost as well. When boost got gingerbread it was just 1 phone, then a month later another phone, then a month later another phone..

[CrystalineIV]

true true. i do like the design of this phone though. it feels nice in the hand. idk why people say its heavy it isnt to me

[guillermo]

I'm holding out for the next Boost phone :-) I'm perfectly contempt with my Warp and don't feel like at I need a front facing camera, "4G" WiMax speeds or a SMALLER screen. When other YouTubers switched to the Marquee, they said "I don't mind the smaller 4in screen" and 2 months later "Man I miss my warp!" So, yeah...

[illsim]

i need a full review on this. im buying this phone next week off gate

[qliphaus]

Well its a matter of opinion... If they think one is better then it's THEIR opinion. So if they DO "enlighten" you, it'll still be THEIR OPINION! Now I personally think the Evo V 4G looks and is MUCH better, and I could care less about the 3D, I just think it looks like more of a quality device.

[OoMostHighoO]

Unlimited for 35 Data, Talk, Text etc. You can't go wrong it just a smarter option.

[CrystalineIV]

no. wimax 4g. its the same speeds as hspa+ 21 on t mobile basically

Somebody stated earlier that Boost throttles after 2.5 gigs of web. I have Sprint and verizon and boost mobile. Boost nor Sprint have ever throttled any of my phones. Sprint is completely unlimited as is Boost with no throttling
