HTC Rezound

It works!

What's taking so damned long?

Typical Verizon behavior, update the newest phones, and an odd mix of older phones...
This lack of support for EVERY phone that should get this update, and your bloatware apps that you try to push on us, is the reason that people (not me...yet) root their phones.
🙄

Glad I bought the dev device 🙄 No more of this B.S. It's freakin March and still only the Nexus devices have ICS. If you want timely updates people, BUY THE DEV DEVICE!!! "Later this year" 🙄 🙄 🙄

So let me get this straight... HTC has completely abandoned their not even 2 year old EVO 4G for upgrades? Have abandoned their not even a year old Glacier (MyTouch 4G) for upgrades, and is favoring the Sensation line up OVER the Amaze? REALLY?

There is a reason HTC is not the leader anymore.

While I used to HATE Samsung, and I still wont use anything with TouchWiz, Id rather buy a Samsung phone and root it and customize it than buy another HTC phone. Why? Cause at the end of the day, Samsung is learning to support their line up longer, and HTC has discovered they dont have to....but look where it got them!

Id rather go with a company that will support updates (and yes these phones BOTH have enough space and power) than stick with ...

All the problems we have been having u could atleast showed us some love. Sine of these phones are a lot older then ours.

They are much more consumer oriented in the way they unlocked bootloaders and now at least giving a timeline in their planned ICS roll out. Motorola understandably has their reasons but can they really be justified in light of what HTC is doing?

Get a dev device! Nuff said

The article makes it seem like this is another update. It's the same on I got last Thursday 1/26/12.

I played with a Rezound for a few days and ended up returning it. The beats is nice but it's a gimmick. The Phone has a 1.5Ghz snapdragon processor but Sense slows it down. Don't believe me? Quadrant scores say it all. Plus there was a noticeable lag from time to time. Nothing major but it was just here.

The Droid RAZR was snappier and had virtually no lag. It's scores are almost on par witht he Galaxy S II devices. Not to mention better battery life as well than the Rezound as well. It's also much more sexier than this typical HTC chunky device with same tired design and aging Sense.

Guess who will get Ice Cream Sandwich first? You can get it will be the RAZR since not only had Motorola already confirmed but they're also been acquire...

I had this phone for 5 days. I sent it back yesterday. Having had HTC's (rooted of course) in the past (TP2 and an Imagio under WM6.5) I guess I expected more. The level of bloatware in this device and coming from my current rooted DroidX proved to be unbearable. I'm going with the Galaxy Nexus (assuming it can be unlocked).....
Also - I found LTE to be overrated -IF your primary use is tethering a laptop for email and an occasional PDF download.
I did play around with the temp root options that are out there but again compared to a rooted Droid X running a Liberty 2.0 ROM and overclocked to 1.2ghz ... even the dual 1.5 parameter - I consider - OVERATED.
Lastly - the screen resolution -yes better than the I-phone. But my wife who ha...

Nice right up Eric. I've been saying this all along about the Beats software. I was wondering if you've had a change to install other music player apps such as Player Pro or PowerAmp, which have 10 band EQs. I would tend to think these $5 apps would perform equal or if not better than Beats software. Any thoughts?

If they'll do pure ICS, or hose it with Sense. :/ I like HTC devices, their build quality, etc - but not Sense.

Are the updates based on anything particular? y is the evo 4g not in the lineup but all the phones based off it are?

...the original Evo 4G? I'm suspecting the hardware requirements are a bit "too powerful" for the original Evo 4G and as it is, I'm due for my upgrade here in Jan 2012. Once I see a list of phones OTHER THAN THE CURRENT GALAXY NEXUS S that begin to have it, I'll consider. I'm steering far clear from Samsung for very good reason.....they don't know how or when the right time is to get their Android OS Updates out their to the Market. It was quite evident with the Galaxy S and prior phones from their line.

on my HTC sensation. Have for over a month now. Its overated

I have a pair of Pioneer SE-M390 headphones that could blast me out of the water if I kept cranking them. Didn't cost me $300.00 or even $200.00, not even $150.00 or $100.00, got em for $90.00 after tax, and I have tried beats. I have not used them side by side for a direct comparison, but I will say that my $90 Pioneers sound DAMN good compared to any of those beats headphones.

This sudden fad for these headphones is unfounded, this is pretty much a fad for a graphic equalizer setting, which Dr.Dre is SELLING you. You are paying cash for an O.K. pair of headphones and an equalizer setting. Money well spent eh ?
