Abstract: The HTC Desire was the What Mobile Awards 2010 Mobile Phone of the Year, so there€s definitely no pressure on HTC to impress us with the Desire S, oh no!Since the original Desire was released, there have been almost too many new high-end Android phones to...
HTC has a certain knack of taking on an OS and doing more with it than any other rival. The Desire S represents the most accomplished interpretation of Google’s Android 2.3 Gingerbread OS. You see, I have nothing but contempt for manufacturers who simp...

It almost feels too small now, Android 2.3 actually adds little
There’s a lot to love about the HTC Desire S: it’s beautiful inside and out, with a solid software experience. We must admit however that we’re not sure who it’s for: original Desire owners will prefer the raw power, potential and screen size of HTC’s ...
