Information On The HTC Desire
In a second attempt to market a device that competes in the heavily populated Android smartphone market, the HTC Desire has been released. The new version expands on the platform of the HTC Legend to provide better usability right out of the box with cues from the Google Nexus One. The HTC Desire is equipped with a rapid 1GHz Snapdragon processor that can handle just about anything. Homescreen options include a variety of widgets and shortcuts for user functionality.
You can use your finger to scroll across the screen to open additional elements available in an application. This provides great functionality to the user. The option is also available in the messaging interface as well as contact screens and music applications. The media player has also been greatly improved. New functionality includes switching between tracks in seconds with just a touch of your fingertip. The HTC Desire also features a screen that measures 3.7″ and allows for great movie playback.
Included ports on the phone provide a micro USB connection as well as a 3.5mm socket for headphones. Also included in the box is a set of wired headphones complete with call/music control buttons. For photos, the HTC Desire is built with a 5 mega pixel camera that features autofocus and an LED flash. With photo capture resolution up to 800 x 400, the HTC Desire can capture photos and videos with excellent quality even in low light situations.
Even though you cannot put a lot on the phone with just its original 512MB memory, you can supplement it to up to 16GB of extra hard disk space. The 3.7″ touchscreen is fantastically easy to use, and you will not find a bigger screen on an Android smartphone. You will find it simple to see what is on the AMOLED screen, and the Sense OS will allow you to navigate its features very easily.
The HTC Desire measures about 119 x 60 x 11.9 mm and you can tell from just holding it that it is well-made. The phone’s housing feels solid and features sturdy buttons and a soft-touch back to improve the phone’s grip and feel. The phone also features four hardware keys and an optical mouse. All of the phone’s hardware is easy to use and provides an overall better functionality than other phone models of a similar caliber.
