HTC Hero To The Rescue

Advantages: Well made, interface is surprisingly good, Android apps are excellent
Disadvantages: Battery life could be better, no bluetooth data transfer capability

...new avenues. Luckily the HTC Hero presented itself to me as a viable option and despite having seen the television advertising campaign a couple of months prior and mocking it's cringe worthy 'Hero' branding I still took the plunge as it posed the most impressive package from the choices available to me. Out of the box: At this time I was still adamant that I wanted and IPhone and realised that the HTC Hero was easily fetching £300 on auction sites. ...
...took the plunge on the HTC Hero and I no longer suffer from IPhone envy. Orange has announced that they will be releasing the IPhone 3Gs on the network by the end of the year and despite this revelation I am still very happy and content with my Android phone and the constant development of the Android Market will ensure longevity. ...

Review of HTC Hero - Smartphone - WCDMA (UMTS) / GSM - white

Great looking Win Mo touch flo phone

Advantages: great looks, stands out from all the other smartphones, good call quality
Disadvantages: lack of QWERTY keyboard

...keys you want. As HTC make a lot of the innards of other smart phones, they are usually a good bet and with the latest iterations of their phones they have finally come up to speed - literaly - by putting in decent processors, rather than having a perfectly good phone in every other aspect and then putting a 200mhz processor in it. The Diamond 2 doesn't have any problems with multi tasking, there can sometimes be a slight delay but only if you are ...
...you want to quickly look back over emails/sms's from clients or friends, especially when you need evidence to prove that your argument is correct! HTC phones are in my opintion unbreakable. I have an HTC S710 as my sturdy back up phone as this particular model just won't break! ...

Review of HTC Touch Diamond2

Review - The HTC Touch Pro 2

Advantages: well designed, good touchscreen, good QWERTY keypad, improved sofware, good widescreen display
Disadvantages: Expensive, no spec bump, no flash module, heavy

HTC Touch Pro 2 It wasn't all too long ago that I was eagerly awaiting the arrival of HTC's first Touch Pro handset, but when I did get my hands on it I was a little disappointed. I obviously wasn't the only one as I now have in my hand the new version, the HTC Touch Pro2. Even with its improved software and a very nicely designed tilt screen, I still needed to be convinced this was a serious alternative to competitive Smartphone's like the ...
...sound clarity. Secondly, HTC have installed two microphones to pick up a clearer sound, and, Thirdly, a chip has been designed to cut out background noise and focus on the speakers voice. All round, the HTC Pro2 is a very satisfying handset to look at… but so was the original, its problems arose when it actually came to living with it, and it is these areas which needed improving. Improvements The Pro2's predecessors, were let down in several ...

Review of HTC Touch Pro 2

Great Business Phone from HTC

Advantages: Stylish, feature rich, range of applications
Disadvantages: Opera application crashes the phone quite often, scrolling takes some getting used to.

This phone was given to me as a gift by a friend. I must say that it's the best gift that I've received in a long time. The phone itself looks just like the Apple iphone and many people have mistaken it for the iphone. Having used the iphone in the past, I must say that the Touch HD is a cut above. It has the same range of features as the iphone and is virtually the same size, shape and weight. What it has in addition is a favourable integration ...
...extension of your office work product generating capabilities. Whilst I wouldn't recommend trying to compose a MS Word document or staring too long at an Adobe Acrobat PDF, the Outlook application is really easy to use and the touch qwerty keypad or touch standard mobile keypad, depending on which you prefer, provides great flexibility and usability in generating emails. Synchonising to your exchange server is also very straightforward and very reliable. ...

Review of HTC Touch HD

HTC Touch Pro The First Real Windows Mobile Phone/PDA/Radio Combo

Advantages: Full Keyboad, HiRes screen, Actually fits into a normal pocket
Disadvantages: Noit the most microscopic phone

This mobile phone has now been superseded by a new model which means that this ecxcelent model may now be very affordable. It’s not as fast as an Iphone but it has far fewer restrictions . The Touch Flo GUI (Graphical User Interface) is a little slow sometimes but still very usable. Like most high end models it has well functioning WiFi (Wireless Internet) These days Wireless internet is available without cost in many places. Now I can use it without ...
...heavier than most but it does contain a high quality QUERTY keyboard that is very easy to use. The E-mail system is easy to set up and the Text Messaging system is excellent, unlike the Iphone it supports Flash which is commonly used on Web pages. The YouTube application is also excellent due to the high resolution display which is also touch sensitive to both fingers and the supplied wand. My favorite applications are the “Outlook” calendar and ...
