Well, if you were keeping abreast of the happenings at Mobile World Congress, then Sprint's EVO View 4Glaunched today at CTIA may seem pretty familiar to the HTC Flyer you saw there. These two HTC devices are essentially the same, with just a couple of minor cosmetic differences and some UI changes shown in the video that follows. We're still not completely sure about the Scribe pen, though it certainly is an entertaining thing to play with. The Evernote app makes great use of the stylus allowing images to be scribbled on and saved, notes recorded -- with voice and your text input -- and of course everything can be shared. We're not massive humans here at Engadget, and we're happy to report that the device can still stay planted fairly comfortably in hand. A standout amenity is the ability to drop apps from the lockscreen onto a small target, and have that app open immediately rather than having to go find it once you've unlocked the device. All this and more is just below the fold.
I give them some consolation points for having Journey's Don't Stop Believing queued up on the music player widget, heh.
ReplyDeleteYes it really makes no sense to use this. Now is the year of dual-core tablets, apps will be designed to take the advantage of dual-core processors.
