Pricy HD HTC Desire S on sale in Hongkong



Top features of the HTC Desire S I love: Review Stunning Clarity, HD 5 MP Camera, “zero-time wait” map, powerful 1GHz Snapdragon™ MSM8255 processor and optimized design factor
 
Acclaimed in review, the HTC Desire S has been launched in Hongkong. Launched on April 13. An online supplier listed the phone’s Hong Kong price at ‘US$475’. He refused to say the exact price but calculating the amount from US dollars into HKD, the Hong Kong price of the high-definition (HD) model would be around HK$ 3693.6. the HTC Desire S reviews are certainly good.

The release date of the HTC Desire S has been quite a suspense considering that a host of new features modified and improved from the HTC desire was expected. I have yet to get my hands on the full specifications but the HTC has some interesting features and improvements fm the HTC Desire. For instance, it comes with a good 3.7 inch screen, slimmer unibody form factor, a ‘pinch’ sensor to zoom in or out of a page and yes, HD camera.

Succeeding the award-winning HTC Desire, the new HTC Desire S claims to boast of better design and more power and speed. With Qualcomm’s new 1GHz Snapdragon™ MSM8255 processor, 768MB memory and the latest version of HTC Sense, the company assures that the HTC Desire S offers an “exhilarating mix of style, innovation and features that extend people’s mobile experience in ways that feel personal and completely original.”

Overview of the HTC Desire S

The HTC Desire S is referred to as the “upgraded version” of the HTC Desire. The HTC Desire S is slenderer, stylish and with Qualcomm’s new 1GHz Snapdragon™ MSM8255 processor  it assures powerful functionality.

Another feature that would have road hogs loving the phone is the Map application. The maps are integrated with a compass so ‘they always point you in the right direction’. The search and browse functionality is so fast that the company is saying there is “zero wait time and zero data roaming fees.” According to the company’s news release, all you have to do is “pan left, right, up or down, the details display straight away.” And there's more - the maps are.

With the latest Android platform 2.3, Qualcomm 1GHz Snapdragon™ MSM8255 processor, internal storage of 1.1 GB and 768 MB RAM, HTC Desire S offers snappy style, performance and power.

HTC Desire S High-Definition (HD) camera

Thanks to the HTC Desire S’s 5 megapixel camera, 720p HD video recording and VGA color fixed focus front camera, users will always be ready to capture any moment wherever they are. The HTC Desire S, showcasing a spacious 3.7 inch screen with 480 x 800 resolution and Super LCD technology, allows better navigation and an exceptional visual experience. Designed with 3C and less than 12mm thick, the HTC Desire S is touted as a “stylishly slim” and weighing only a light 130g. In other words, the HTC Desire S combines power and speed – far more than that of the HTC Desire – or so that’s what the company says. I’ll keep you posted on this phone.

The only UC Browser version that works on Samsung Wave 525 (Bada OS)

It's been about 4 years since the Samsung Wave 525 was launched. When it came out in 2010, it was one of the best mid-segment "smartphones" that hit the market. How many momentous, technologically-superior smartphones have come and gone since the Bada OS Wave?  The 525 must now feel like a dinosaur - and it is. In terms of its web browser, the most troublesome dinosaur ever. Prior to using the Samsung Wave, I'd used several other phones and none gave me any problem when using the internet as did the 525.  Browsing experience had never been so much a problem unlike the one the 525 gave me since i bought it three years ago. The various versions of UC Browser , a nifty little mobile browser that was touted to be the "fastest browser" for mobile phones that time, was the choice of wave 525 users. The only problem? In a world where every app and gadget was either android or windows, none worked for Bada OS (Samsung's own operating system). The Sams...

Yet, the  'Walkman' slider phone, released in 2009, remains one of the most popular mobile phones in the market today. An overview of the phone will give us amble reasons why even mobile phone reviewers still cannot beat the little device down, even in this age of the Xperias and the iPhones. Here is an overview of the  main features and specifications of this hardy little Sony Ericsson flagship phone. Overview: The Sony Ericsson w995 is a "Walkman" Slider phone. When it was released in 2009, the device offered probably three of then-biggest features to mobile phone users - a then-unheard of 8.1 Megapixel camera, 8GB Memory Card and 3G - one of the first pre-3G era phones that came with a 3G network band. My guess on the reasons for the phone's popularity is users' relentless hunger for big MP cameras. Only high-ends such as the Xperias, the Nokia Lumias and...
