I had an HTC Hero (you know, the one that won all those best gadget awards) before and that was good, but this phone is fantastic. 10 reasons to buy: 1. Large, bright, high-resolution screen. Photos and text look great and really clear - which is good for looking at email attachments or facebook photos. 2. It's thin and very comfortable to hold. It actually feels less bulky than the i-phone 3GS my girlfriend has in my opinion. 3. It's really fast - you just click on something and it appears. No lag. Multitasking, you seem to be able to throw almost anything at it. 4. The 5mp camera and flash are surprisingly good, and you can upload photos straight onto Facebook. It is a real step up from the HTC Hero I had before. 5. Google maps is better than ever on it, and you can get instant directions. 6. MP3 player is really, really good - it seems to be much clearer than my old HTC Hero was, and sounds more vibrant, with sound quality very much on a par with the iphone. I've downloaded a really good Amazon MP3 app means allows you to buy from Amazon huge amounts of DRM free MP3s recorded at v high bit-rates and download them direct to your phone. 7. Everything is super-intuitive - Really good email, text message and social networking integration. The keyboard is really good, and the way they've done predictive text - even when you have typed some wrong letters - is really impressive. 8. Really good, solid-feeling build quality. Nothing feels cheap and plasticy about it like some old Nokia phones I had. 9. It's much cheaper than the i-phone and the new Sony Ericcson x10. I managed to get mine on T-mobile with (per month) 300 minutes, 300 texts, unlimited internet, unlimited landline calls and free phone for £25/month as a new customer, which is absolutely cracking. 10. Web browsing brill. Flash. Multi-touch/pinch to zoom. Pinch to zoom. With Flash, with Flash 10.1 coming out soon this should get better better.
