Gingerbread the user interface on the epic Touch 4G is Samsung TouchWiz 4.0 and on the Evo 3d its HTC Sense version 3.0 time to boot up both of our combatants ensue we've got four available RAM on both we got the epic touch before just fired up we go let's fire up the Evo 3d HTC and it's fire it up man we've got the Sprint preview on both little 4G and here we go I'll put it up about the same time that's going to settings and the worse applications why can't I find out what I'm looking for there it is applications running services settings applications running services showing 577 megabytes of free memory on the Evo 3d and 640 to 640 there abouts on the Epic Touch 4G so it looks like the epic text 4G is gonna have around 70 megabytes more of free memory after boot time to read some of our tests we'll start with the Quadra Center benchmark tests and kick those off go to clean start on both alright let's check our results on the Epic Touch 4G 29:56 when evo 3d 19:27 so our winner was definitely the Epic Touch 4G on our quadrant standard benchmark test next up I'm gonna run the smart bench test and we're off good clean start on both and we have a winner in the Epic Touch 4G CPU thirty nine ninety seven to twenty seven fifty two GPU 23:52 1687 and last but not least let's run the Olympic test and we'll run single thread and we're off and we have a winner and the Epic Touch 4G megaflops at fifty-six point one eight six and one point four nine seconds and on the Evo 3d we've got mega flops forty four point nine two seventy one point eight seven seconds so we're all winner on our test at this point has been the Epic Touch 4G it is time for artificial speed test so you can see how download advanced advanced task killer on both so I just killed all the background tasks it's going to start with try me as close as I can that definitely looked to be the epic touch 4g let's try maps again definitely the epic touch 4g it's going to contacts that look pretty close but I think it was the epic touch 4g if I'm wrong please let me know let's try messaging on both not seem to be the epic Touch 4G let's go to Gmail you know we got that but it was definitely the epic Touch 4G again as well let's try to mark it on both was the epic Touch 4G let's try the cameras on both that was definitely the epic Touch 4G let's go to Fandango third party and let's try that was that portion up to there would look to be the epic Touch 4G let's try playing the trailers on both as well see you loads quicker and the winner of loading the trailer was the Evo 3d overall I have to say the epic touch 4g was quicker and absolutely everything except loading the last video alright try a little gaming on both of our combatants and we'll start on the evo 3d and will run the caps of course one asphalt to remember I'm doing this to a camera so be gentle with your opinions I have good start get off of me buddy Oh all right there's the epic I mean excuse me Evo do the same thing on the epic all right a little bit of gaming on folder I can badness all right let's wrap up today's face-off featuring the Samsung Epic Touch 4G and HTC EVO 3d with our browser comparison another one in our pocket now face offs don't forget after this I'll have a video sample from each of our combatants yep ik Touch 4G and HTC EVO 3d all right I've got running off the boss both off the same Wi-Fi network their displays are set to default brightness I've cleared the cache and history on both them both of them are fully enabled for flash and we'll kick this off with paint gadget and we're off and it looks like a pretty even race up to this point and our winner is going to be but Eva 3d looks like it wants it nope Epic Touch 4G got there first you can see just how smooth it is let's try the Evo 3d and again it's not as smooth not bad as you can see but it's just not as smooth let's double tap to zoom in on both give you a look at the text and pinch to zoom no problems on either one and both of them will dynamically rewrap the text to fit the display which is very slick so you've got two great browsers you can see just how smooth it is and how easy both of them are double tap to zoom all the way out boom any rendering issues doesn't look like it on either one both of them seem to render everything very well no no wait a minute one we have here fact I'm almost missing up at the top we're missing an add missing some of the portions to the top here on the Evo 3d so we're entering a little bit more on the Epic Touch 4G than what's rendering on the evo 3d all right what do you see we head over to the mothership and check a few things out there smart phone reviews smartphone reviews and we're off I think that was pretty close Wow epic they see the Evo 3d is well out in front oh and we went to the wrong version on the Epic Touch 4G let's see if it can come back and get anywhere near what the Evo 3d is done wow it's almost caught up again we're running through all the flash at this point I'm guessing the evo 3ds gonna take it we'll see yep Evo 3d is done pretty smooth too still waiting on the Epic Touch 4G to finish loading the flash in there it did you can see the flashy ads running on both and again the Epic Touch 4G is considerably smoother than the Evo 3d double tap to zoom in I would say of the browser's I've used on both on Sprint smartphones these two are definitely the two best I believe the evo 3d definitely feels smoother than the Photon 4G in a Nexus S if it touches four she was first live in a page and again you can see just how smooth it is there's just a little bit of lag on the evo 3d so there's a look at our faceoff for each of Epic Touch 4G HTC EVO three four pocket now this is Craig don't forget to hang in there and check out the video examples from each one of our combatants hope this was helpful take care
