  • HTCs Sense interface provides a highly configurable suite of seven home screens, Sense UI collects contact events from multiple sources, Microsoft Exchange support, Android Market for direct software download
  • Lacklustre camera, No frontfacing camera for twoway video calls, Moderate battery life
  • The Android platform has come of age in the Hero. HTCs Sense interface is superbly implemented, the device itself is intuitive to use, and the software is largely well thought-out. Wed have liked more internal memory, longer battery life and a bette

  • A hugely likeable phone that excels at web browsing and manages to just live up to its ambitious name. However, a couple of quirks prevent us giving it an all-out recommendation. ...

  • The HTC Hero has a lot of things going for it, with an impressive multi-touch screen, easy-access social networking apps and Googles ever-evolving Android OS, which HTC has customised, adding a few tricks of its own. Its still not quite as straightf...

  • Syncs perfectly with social networks, excellent internet features, super responsive touchscreen, onetouch access to Android Marketplace.
  • Camera can’t capture night or motion shots; phone may slow down when storage fills up.

  • I like it, I prefer it to the Magic, but that is personal choice and I am sure many will like the Magic over the Hero.The day to day use and the endlessly customisable screens make this device great to pick up and play with in quieter moments. The auto...

  • The HTC Hero is superb and the best iPhone competitor we've reviewed so far. Our only disappointment is that HTC didn't use a faster processor. If you’re not bothered by the slight lag though then we couldn't recommend this phone enough.Like this phone...

  • Abstract:  There are a few little niggles about this handset, such as the jutting lip and the fiddliness of taking pictures with the trackball. But the drawbacks are far outweighed by the multimedia and business centric benefits on offer, not to mention the possi...

  • Abstract:  Androids may dream of electric sheep, but HTC dreams of producing a touch-powered phone that can really give the iPhone something to worry about. With the Hero it pretty much manages to turn that dream into a reality. We know you've probably looked at t...

  • Abstract:  I feel dirty in a way, and Ill tell you why. This is and always has been a Windows Mobile site. To be given a HTC Hero to play with for a couple of weeks? No.. we dont want it. Why? Because its powered by Google Android - a new competitor for Window...
