hey everyone Danny Webster here from pocket comm and this is the hardware tour of the HTC EVO shift running on Sprint's 4G WiMAX network so let's get started okay so the first thing you probably noticed this is three point six inch WVGA resolution screen that's also glass and capacitive multi-touch that's 480 resolution across and 800 resolution up on the bottom we have these four capacitive buttons they're outlined in a chrome accent I don't know if you can see that too well on the camera but there you go you can see it kind of like that if I move the light in the reflection on the outside of the screen on the glass we had this chrome bezel unfortunately it's a little bit sharp I don't know if you remember that HD two's a camera on the back of the device it was a little bit sharp it's kind of like that the entire thing is somewhat of a blue accent color I don't know if you can see it on the camera but it's blue it's not actually black it's a blue hue to it and the outside of this is metal on the top we have a light sensor along with a speaker grille for our headset we have an LED notification light underneath the speaker grille on the top we have a 3.5 millimeter headphone jack our power standby button which is kind of weird it's not exactly on the top it's more of on an angle to the back sort of so if I go to this side I have the volume rocker and I also have the microUSB port which is a little bit different than most devices that I've seen because it kind of goes in backwards and I can show you that here if I have a micro USB as you can see the flat part goes up whereas the curved part goes down so it's a little bit different it's kind of like the HD 2 I don't know if you've ever use that phone but it's just like that on the bottom we have our microphone and on this side we don't really have anything on the back we have a 5 megapixel camera with a LED and our speakerphone and we also have a sprint 4G emblem I'm going to take off the battery cover and we'll go to look at that CD micro SD card slot and all that great stuff it's a little bit tricky to get the battery cover off it's also in this rubberized material which makes it easy to hold in hand let's see here I hopefully don't break it ok there we go so we have a 1500 milliamp hour battery underneath the battery we have our micro SD card slot which is capable of holding up to 32 gigabytes of space so it comes with a 2 gigabyte card and it's time weird you have to put it back to pull it out you have to pull this little tab right here and put it back in you have to push it in and then push the tab down it locks in place so you just put the battery back on this device is running at 800 megahertz and it does have 512 megabytes of RAM the radios on the device are a CDMA variant along with D Bluetooth 2.1 the Wi-Fi b/g/n and it also has a built-in FM radio if we slide out the device which I've already done we have a Google mo on the back and we have a full QWERTY keyboard with a function button that allows us to access these other keys so it's a four row keyboard and I have to tell you it is rather tricky to use it doesn't work very well because the buttons are so flat it doesn't work that great I find myself actually using the on-screen keyboard just because this one is so tedious to use so this has been the hardware tour of the HTC EVO shift 4G on Sprint's wife max 4G network the device does cost around a hundred and forty nine dollars with the two-year contract if you like our videos make sure you give us a thumbs up and also leave some comments down below in case you missed the unboxing I'll post a link right about here and stay tuned for the software tour coming up next thanks for watching
