Evo 3d on its last leg bought the 8XT this morning

Hey Guys,

Well I was thinking about holding out for the Ativ s but my evo 3d's touch screen decided to stop working. I went to a store in Longmont and they refused to sell it to me off contract for some reason. Drove down to Boulder and picked one up without issue. It is a very sweet phone! I thought the screen resolution was going to bug me but I can't even tell at all which I think is due to the smaller screen size. The Phone is snappy, games are fast and fun. Don't have any regrets about this phone 1 bit. I also get to keep my upgrade since it was only 399 off contract so hopefully next summer sprint gets some more windows phone love!

Congratulations on the new device and welcome to the Windows Phone family!

Trying one out for a week. Mu h nicer than my arrive, miss the keyboard though. On screen sucks.....

disappointed that my applications did not auto install.

may buy it if I can get used to the screen boRd instead of buttons.

It's good to see a fellow EVO3D owner loving the switch to WP8. I'm waiting for the NEO personally. I'm going to take DW up to Sprint today to checkout the 8XT. Keep us updated on your WP8 journey with Sprint.

At $400 + tax, I may just do the off contract thing too. Particularly if it keeps my monthly payment low (currently $55 with my corporate discount.) That way I still have some dry powder in case Softbank introduces a killer Windows phone in the next year.

I will be picking mine up Friday the 26th. Buying sans contract but have a trade in that will knock 125 off the price and bring it down to 275. Already have a 32gb SanDisk micro sd card available.
