I know, I know, this has been talked about ad infinitum, but I can't be ar5ed to do a search so I'm gonna ask all over again. So there.:smt019:smt064:smt019


I can now get an upgrade for my phone contract but I'm a bit unsure what one to get. I spoke to Viper (I think it was him but could have bee Scoobs) last weekend and he reckoned the HTC Desire was pretty good. I was thinking of the iPhone but have heard about problems with apps etc. Can you get apps for the HTC? I know next to nothing about these things but would like to, well, broaden my horizons, as it were.

Discuss.



Cheers all.:D

I've had a HTC Hero on Android for ages now and love it, it just got upgraded to 2.1 software.

I just took delivery of a HTC Desire today for work also, feel free to come fiddle with my buttons whenever you want

HTC desire is nice, as long as you accept that ANY smart phone will have a poor battery life. I'd look at the Samsung Galaxy too if that's your bag

just go to a shop and see witch one you like best .
all smart phones are simlar now so its just about gooing looking which tariff and phone suits you most.
on here you will just get mixed opinions so its better to go see for yourself .

Just make sure its one that comes with a grammar checker

Should be

"Which Phone?", not "What Phone?"

:p

Is that the same as a Verna streak, but different?

Looking seriously at the Samsung Galaxy S here, supply of the desire is rather poor just now

That's because it's the better phone!

HTC Desire HD is out soonish I think.

Galaxy has a better screen, both run android, Galaxy has the odd stutter but still has a lot of room for improvement.

Might just wait a month or 2 still, my current PoS reboots it's self 2 or 3 times a day which can be frustraiting at times.
