Abstract: HTC really does change features and phone design rather seldom, at least from the perspective of someone who has been in contact with most of these models. Some may say that these phones are rendered monotonous or boring owing to that fact, but HTC see...

I have seen a number of phones in my time but the features that HTC has crammed into this one are very impressive. Android OS is picking up steam and for all of the anti Apple enthusiasts out there this is the perfect phone to wave in the face of their...

Great HTC Sense UI, super fast Snapdragon processor, large AMOLED screen
No music player equalizer, no hardware send/end call keys
