The editors liked
This is a sleek fast phone
That is rich in applications and functionality. It will put the iPod under pressure while leaving brands like Nokia scratching their proverbial backside.
Excellent design with stunning AMOLED screen. Huge range of preinstalled software. First-class web browser with Flash. HTC Sense is superb
The editors didn't like
The application icons should be larger and one of the three buttons on the base of the phone enabled to activate the screen.
Poor 5-megapixel camera. Battery needs to be managed by the user. Needs at least 8GB of internal storage
Battery life, will be too big for some, unexpected browser closing (likely a software issue), widgets still take too long to refresh
We're certain that the HTC Desire will be a huge hit in 2010. Aside from a few minor points, there is little fault with this superphoneKey specs3.5mm jack, 3G, 5 megapixels, AMOLED, Android, Bluetooth, FM radio, GPRS, GPS, GSM, HSDPA, Li-ion battery...
Fast Web browser, with Flash support; integrates your contacts across social networks; HTC Sense user interface makes Android better-looking and adds handy features; big, high-res touchscreen; great virtual keyboard
Some home-screen widgets need polishing; Android is still somewhat geeky; short battery life; AMOLED screen is hard to see in sunlight
HTC has packed every feature under the sun into the Desire, along with a slick user interface and plenty of processing power. Although not as sexy as the HTC Legend or as polished as the iPhone, the Desire is a smart phone that inspires lust ...

Gorgeous screen, Slim chassis, Fast processor, Good quality 5MP camera, Speedy internet browser, Flash video support
Bluetooth battery stutters, Battery life suspect out the box, Can't delete whole inboxes in POP3 messaging
A step up from the handsets it's replacing the HTC Desire C is a decent budget-handset, although you may want to look elsewhere if you want more bang for your buck...
Abstract: There's no better evidence that Google's Android platform has come into its own this year than the HTC Desire. I may be going out on a limb here, but the Desire is undoubtedly an iPhone killer, even if it doesn't end up selling nearly as many units. I'...
Lovely design and build, brilliant display, excellent web browser, superb integration with social networking services, Sense UI is fantastic
Phone heats up when in use, display is a fingerprint magnet, using optical trackpad to click pictures is inconvenient, camera has trouble focusing on smaller objects, poor FM radio reception, unimpressive battery life
The HTC Desire is priced at Rs. 26,000. Overall it is an excellent device. It looks and feels great, the display is brilliant and I loved the browser and the general speed of the interface. None of the flaws with the device are deal breakers. The batt...
Well designed, comfortable to use, Decent audio quality, Photo/Video capture is quite good, OTA to Froyo available
Battery life should have been better, Handset tends to heat up a bit during prolonged usage
ConnectivityThe Desire is well equipped for connectivity and thanks to Froyo one more addition was provided - 3G sharing via Wi-Fi so your handset becomes a Wi-Fi hot-spot for your laptop or any other device. Bluetooth with A2DP and USB 2.0 are part of...
