HTC Evo 4G (Sprint) - $199, June 4 

So long as you don't find it too large or too heavy, which some of you will, Evo 4G is the best smartphone on the market right now. Android 2.1 and HTC Sense are smooth as butter on Evo, and the massive 4.3" display looks great and makes for the roomiest virtual QWERTY board imaginable. Sprint's $10/month "Premium Data" surcharge is incredibly annoying, though, considering that 4G isn't yet available in most of the country.
