Welcome to the Droid Incredible 4G Forum!

It is NOT a weaker processor. It will trounce the Rezound as far as cpu, gpu go in tests. Will you notice a difference in day to day use? Depends on what you do. The S4 is a beast.

Also, Sense 4.0 vs 3.6 (4.0 is getting great reviews...3.6 is getting complaints for typical Sense bloat).

The battery life will be a huge improvement. The One S battery life is amazing, and this with a smaller screen, underclocked processor and bigger battery should be ever better!

Also, you get NFC capabilities. New bluetooth.

I wouldn't upgrade from a Rezound, either, though. The next round of S4's that come out in the fall will have a GPU upgrade that will be very significant.

Oh yeah, it will have the new camera processer that allows for zero lag shooting.

The camera processor that you mentioned is the one that has all these features in this link, right?
HTC ImageSense - HTC Sense features

If all these camera features are included with that's phone that's awesome! They should be since they are included with Sense 4.0...

"Like most new HTC phones, a lot of noise is being made about the Incredible's camera. There's an 8-megapixel, rear-facing camera with autofocus, LED flash, BSI, f/2.2 and 28 mm lens. HTC Video Pic allows you to shoot HD video and capture photos at the same time."

Hoping that someone puts up some hands-on tests from this conference.

The biggest disappointment for me is not getting a release date tonight. I'm in dire need of a new phone and now I still don't know when I'm getting one.

I just watched a video on this site
HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE for Verizon hands-on at CTIA 2012 (update: video) -- Engadget
and was informed that the camera for this phone isn't the same one that's on the One S. Does that mean that the camera won't be as described on HTC's Sense site? Or does it mean that the camera will have the same functions only it's just a different camera?

I can not wait to find out the answer to your question. Verizon is terrible at releasing phones.

I think I found out the answer a few minutes ago... the camera won't be the same so it won't be able to take rapid-fire shots like the htc sense description says.
HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE Hands-on: Fast and One-Hand Friendly


Then again I read another article that says the camera chip details aren't known yet.
Hands On With the HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE | News & Opinion | PCMag.com



To completely contradict that last link here's another one.
HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE Briefly Shows Up On DroidDoes.com
In this link scroll down to the second image and you can clearly see "Capture faster, take rapid-fire shots. new high + speed 8mp camera"


Are the camera details not known by the people that wrote the first article? The droiddoes.com leak does say that the phone is capable of rapid-fire shots which would make it the same camera described on htcsense.com.


Thoughts anyone?

This might help answer some of the camera questions a bit: Quick Hands-on With the DROID Incredible 4G LTE – Droid Life

It'll be an awesome camera regardless, but if that quick capture thing is important, it sounds like it might not be exactly the same as the One series.

That feature isn't important but it would have been really cool to have on the phone. The pictures I take with the Thunderbolt come out great so I imagine that pictures taken with the Incredible 4g will be the same quality. Taking a picture while recording a video should be a nice feature if I ever get the opportunity to use it.

I saw a few videos from today that showed that pictures during video recording (and playback) are possible. The burst mode where you just hold down the button, which the chip was responsible for, is not available.

I guess a workaround would be to just record video and and take pics of the frames you want, and in that way you can get that same results as burst mode.

Who has the cheapest 32GB cards btw? I'm going to buy one in advance.

Also, I would have to think not having the imagesense chip means that it will be prices lower than it would have been if it had it. Come on Verizon, $99.

This post claims a quadrant score of 4600.

To put that in perspective:



The AT&T One X (with the 1.5ghz snapdragon) has about a 5000 score. The Gnex around 2000!

does anyone think this phone will be released tomorrow?
