HTC Desire Review
HTC was traditionally a business that manufactured smartphones for other people, providing the technology and design for other brands to sell as exclusive products. However, switching from the Windows Mobile operating platform to Android saw the company develop its position not just as a manufacturer for brands like Google, with the Nexus One, but also for its own products, which most recently have included the Legend, and now the new HTC Desire.
The first thing that you notice about the HTC Desire is that is certainly has the appearance of a smartphone, with a well built look and feel and a nice big touchscreen. If you know your smartphones, you’ll probably also notice that it isn’t too dissimilar to the Nexus One. What differences there are a quite subtle, the Desire has a useful mix of touchscreen and clickable buttons, to give users the best of both worlds, and the Desire doesn’t have the Nexus One’s unibody construction, but it’s still well built and good to look at.
The HTC Desire complements its looks with top quality performance as well. The bright, clear images you see on the 3.7 inch AMOLED screen are delivered by a powerful 1GHz Snapdragon processor that can call on 512 MB of memory to make sure it’s able to handle just about any demands you place on it.
With a 5 megapixel camera that also has autofocus and an LED flash, the HTC Desire gives you everything you need to get great shots in just about all situations, especially with the wide 5:3 format making sure you get even more in. Video capture is high resolution, if not high definition, so recording moving pictures will give you results almost as good as your still images, and better than many of the other smartphones on the market.
Since abandoning Windows Mobile on most of its smartphones, HTC has forged ahead with Android, and the Desire demonstrates even further development with HTC’s Sense user interface. Overlaying the Android platform Sense works well and lets users easily and smoothly navigate around the phone. Recent additions to the Sense user interface have included the social network aggregator Friendstream, as well as the home screen manager Leap, and these only help to strengthen the case for the HTC Desire being a smartphone that people love to use.
The HTC Desire builds on the success of Google’s Nexus One and HTC’s own Legend, and gives smartphone users a little bit more. With impressive technology, and a user interface and software to match, HTC has reinforced its position as one of the big smartphone brands.
