Today, mobile phone carrier Sprint will make available for purchase for all its users a new handset that runs under Google's Android operating system, the HTC EVO 3D. This is the first handset from HTC to offer support for the recording and playback of 3D content, which makes it a highly appealing option for many users.

Moreover, the device comes with high-end hardware packed inside, with the latest version of Android, namely 2.3 Gingerbread, and with the ability to uninstall any of the applications that the wireless carrier loaded on it from the start.

Up until now, all of the content that wireless carrier loaded on subsidized devices was treated as part of the platform itself, and users were forced to have applications they did not want still loaded on their devices.

However, the new HTC EVO 3D comes to Sprint's customers with the option to uninstall any of the bloatware that was preloaded on it, some of the latest reports on the matter suggest.

The handset has been available for pre-order for the wireless carrier's users for several weeks now, and is already available for purchase for Sprint Premier customers, while being set to hit general availability in a matter of hours.

As stated above, the option to simply uninstall carrier content pre-installed on it should make the new mobile phone even more appealing than it already was.

For those out of the loop, we should note that the HTC EVO 3D comes with a large 4.3-inch touchscreen display, complemented by a 1.2GHz dual-core application processor, 1GB of RAM, and microSD memory card slot with support for up to 32GB of external storage.

On the back, the new Android-based device sports dual 5-megapixel photo snappers with support for recording 3D content at HD resolution. It also offers support for 2D recording, as well as for the playback of 3D and 2D content.

The HTC EVO 3D also includes WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, along with built-in GPS receiver, 3.5mm headphone jack, USB port, and the ability to view content from it straight on the larger screen of TVs.
