The HTC EVO 4G Android phone comes with Internet-connectivity and video play-back features that enhance the mobile computing experience. The HDMI output allows you to play your mobile video on a big screen, but the EVO 4G only plays MP4 and 3GP video natively. To play AVI files on the EVO, you need a third-party video player with the necessary codec. The EVO's 4.3-inch screen shows smooth video in 480-by-320 resolution or lower, and the video output exports HD video with 720p resolution.
