Abstract: Last year HTC's Wildfire delivered a fair compromise between specifications and price. Nearly a year on, HTC has updated the Wildfire. As time has passed our expectations of a budget smartphone have changed.So does the Wildfire S do enough to emulate its ...
Android 2.3 at a pocketfriendly price; small size; topnotch networking integration.
umer Awards last year but since then, other phone makers have managed to produced smartphones with even more features at even lower prices. So can its sequel, the HTC Wildfire S, fare as well in an evermore crowded market?
Pros: Android 2.3 at a pocket-friendly price; small size; top-notch networking integration. Cons: The snapper lets it down and the chip is a tad slow. While the phone runs on Android 2.3, it lacks the power to make the most of it. Verdict: A nice addit...

Abstract: All consumers really want is a compact, attractive device with a decent OS and powerful features at a low low price. Could the HTC Wildfire S be the answer to their dreams?Until HTC announced its flagship€dual-core monster, the HTC Sensation, it seemed li...
It’s not top of the range but then it’s not meant to be, and the HTC Wildfire S makes some very reasonable compromises between flash and cash. It’s not that cheap though, and there are a few rival Android handsets offering a similar performance and fe...
The HTC Wildfire S is a neat little smartphone that fits nicely into the mid-range. This is a crowded sector, though, and as well as handsets designed specifically for it you'll find former flagship models at attractive prices. Shop wisely, and you can...
HTC's Wildfire S is a capable budget phone, but its limited storage space could be frustrating and it's currently not particularly good value on contract. ...
Compact, stylish design / Pleasant to use, Good finish, Decent resolution considering the screen size, HTC Sense interface
Not powerful enough for advanced use, Sound quality and photos could be better
As a fairly minor upgrade of the original WildFire, the WildFire S takes HTC's compact and affordable mobile one step further. It's a functional consumer smartphone that won't disappoint....
Solid and durable body, Great features on HTC Sense 2.1, Responsive capacitive touchscreen, Fairly decent still shots
Under-powered processor, Disappointing video recording, No DivX/Xvid video playback, Too expensive for what's on offer
A rare off moment from HTC. If this was £99 it'd be a formidable entry-level Android phone, but for over £200 the Wildfire S is lacking compared with the competition...
