    EVO 4G LTE and original EVO 4G side by side on my desk OpenSignal running on both.


    EVO 4G LTE -87dBm (65% Signal)

    EVO 4G -85dBm (70% Signal)
    Sprint: $40.99 - $73.00 per month

    So in your case, just 2db worse.

    I have not experienced any differences with regards to call quality but have seen an increase in browser speeds over 3G as others have reported. The user experience is night and day between the two, it's a Metro vs a Maserati.

    How has battery life been for you guys? Anyone have a GSII before the One X? I want to know how they compare battery life wise.

    I get 13hrs - 17hrs. The biggest difference was switching from full brightness on first day to automatic since then. I have GPS always on, update weather every hour, I've noticed battery threads in other forums people with light use or battery saving apps are going 24hrs+. I've now turned "Best Wi-Fi performance" off, there's no word on what exactly it does although it apparently drains the battery. WiFi download speeds are unaffected on my home network with "Best Wi-Fi performance" turned off. Battery is nearly charged right now so it will be interesting to see how this effects battery life.
