Hey , so im Thinking about getting the HTC Evo V 4G From Virgin Mobile When i switch over from MetroPCS. I've Watched Many Video's But i Still cannot see if the HTC EVO V has FACE UNLOCK? Can anyone with this phone verify this please and get back to me :D? Thanks in Advance:D
 
You'll try it out, think it's the coolest thing, and then stop using it once you realize it doesn't work in the dark.
 
yes it has it, and the IDEA sounds cool. but in practice youll hate it.

I stick to the pattern unlock with a hidden trail.

*edit* i had to turn off face unlock mostly becuase it would open by seeing almost any pic of David Tennant. I mean im flattered but i dont want my phone that easy to open.

I was considering the one V as well.

I went with the evo v 4g becuase the daul core, 1gb ram, bigger qHD screen and the 3D (which i use a lot) means it will be future proofed for QUITE a long while.

and with the app world, you never, ever know what app is gunna be the next big thing, or what you might do with the phone on a daily basis.

for me, id rather have enough power under the hood to tackle anything that comes out. I may want to run linux and hdmi out to a screen with a bluetooth keyboard. dual core lets me do that better than a single core.

of course im a mad man who builds ridiculously fast drag racing motorcycles, so theres never enough power for me.

I guess the biggest reason I didnt go with the One V is that its basically the Triumph with a smaller screen.. same cpu as the triumph. no point to pay the asking price and get less of a phone.

the only upgrade from the triumph/one v is the Evo V

and don't bring up the iPhone because its triple the cost and 2 generations outdated. even the iPhone 5 only brings apples phone up to the status of androids of last year.

Face unlock is a security nightmare.

Although the number pin is easily bypassed as well
