We literally just mentioned that the HTC EVO 4G was available off-contract for $549 direct from the HTC online store. We then come across iFixit who have done a complete teardown of the HTC EVO 4G to see exactly what’s inside and what makes it function the way it does.

iFixit are well known in the Gadget world for taking apart high end gadgets, often Apple [AAPL] products, but anything with a high price tag. The latest teardown was made possible because of Google [GOOG] handing out free HTC EVO 4G’s at the Google I/O event that was held recently. The iFixit team managed to get one of the EVO’s and take it home to carve it apart.

iFixit say that the EVO 4G was an easy phone to take apart. All that was required was removing the back cover and then unfastening 6 Torx screws to reveal the insides. [Read more…]
