To take 3D pictures and preview them on its 3D screen.

But the screen should have more resolution than the current ones for web browsing.

I've had an HTC EVO 3D since launch, 540 x 960, solid phone.

Yes, I had seen that Phone, but it is old now.

I never cared about HTC as they were just a Windows phone box-shifter.
Maybe they make good Android phones now, but I don't see them in the same category as the traditional manufacturers (which can make worse phones).

HTC is a very good company. My Dad uses an HTC Phone and I had an Aria that I loved. They make great phones

I guess its all personal taste. I like plastic. It is a better shock absorber. To each his own

I am not talking about using plastic, but about the shape.

I also don't know anything about HTC research, while Nokia was known for a lot of innovative stuff.

And the brand name is bland, not provoking attachment.

Curious what this means? How can something feel "original equipment manufacturer"?
Maybe we're missing something? :confused:

The company feels like just an OEM.

What part of Original in Original equipment manufacturer don't you get? Are you talking about aftermarket?
You get a car, the radio it came with is from the manufacturer is OEM, you switch it for a Sony you bought and that's aftermarket.

Strange. OEM is generic equipment. If you want a new battery for your iPhone do you want an OEM battery from apple or an aftermarket battery from some other company? Its not tangible.

OP is this the sort of stuff which usually rattles around in your head before you purchase everything?

By the way, I don't like HTC but their phones are probably the least "plasticy" of all Android phones... they use a lot of metal in their designs.

"Just OEM" like "we don't make full products by ourselves, we always get the software from somewhere else and put it onto our hardware".

I really can't see the point of this thread. You want an 3D phone, but you refuse to accept products from HTC (and or maybe LG since they also had some 3D phones?) because they are "OEM"? By your definition, every Android manufacturer is an "OEM" since they are just getting the software from Google and then slapping their own custom UI on top of it (like Sense, Touchwiz, Optimus UI, Motoblur etc etc.) and tweaking the Linux kernel to work on their own hardware.

I said "just OEM". Sony for example, might be an Android OEM, but they make a lot of other products fully by themselves.

Not really, but if that is your reason why you wont buy a HTC, thats lame. LG makes other products too.

HTC phones are actually pretty good. I just dont like that there is no microsdcard expansion slot.

I know LG fully makes a lot of other stuff. But their 3D phones have low resolution screens.

Also, the HTC phone is not a step up enough in resolution.

And phones without a memory slot are totally lame, including the iPhone.
