The Sumptuous HTC Desire
HTC isn’t exactly a household name in the UK just yet. However, with the likes of the new HTC desire, this Taiwanese mobile phone manufacturer is sure to make its way to the limelight pretty soon. Here’s a quick look at HTC’s newest Smartphone in the market.
Mobile Phone Features
The HTC Desire is definitely a feature-packed device. As a mobile, it has everything you’d need and more. It is a dual band device over the 3G network and is compatible with four different networks for 2G. HSDPA, EDGE, GPRS, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth connectivity options are all on board which means that the device offers excellent alternatives for both voice and data connectivity.
Other prominent features include a 5-Megapixel camera, a GPS receiver, an FM stereo, and a long-lasting battery which will give you up to 360 hours on stand-by and approximately 6 and a half hours of talk time. All in all, this is an extremely impressive array of features, considering the great HTC Desire deals available.
Eye Candy
The HTC Desire is one of the coolest looking Smartphones we’ve encountered in a while. Sure, it also has the same candy bar form factor, but somehow, the device is able to stand out. Perhaps it’s because of its larger than usual 3.7” AMOLED capacitive touch screen display. At an amazing 480 x 800 pixels, it can display up to 16 million different, vivid colours. If not, then maybe it’s due to the fact that it comes in three different colour schemes (black, silver, and brown) which all possess a subtle elegance.
If that’s still not it then maybe it’s because of the compact design of the Desire which only weighs 135 grams and has the dimensions of only 119 x 60 x 11.9 mm.
Soft Touch
To top things off, the HTC Desire has a very impressive software list. Not only does it sport the highly regarded Android mobile OS (version 2.1 or Eclair), but it also comes with HTC’s famed Sense UI. The 576 MB of internal memory teams up with the Desire’s super powerful 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor to deliver unrivalled clock speeds and virtually limitless multitasking options. Plus, there are even pre-installed social networking apps which automatically connect to Facebook, Twitter, and Flickr – a definite treat for all social butterflies.
