Customer Review

It should my entry in the 'App World' will and I really wanted to buy the Desire. After its price but rather increases as falls and my entry is not equal to a half thousand worth it was then but the Wildfire. With slight abdominal pain because I had repeatedly read from 'coarse pixellated display'.

After 2 weeks then came the Wildfire. First surprise on the packaging which is only slightly larger than the mobile phone, only much deeper. When you consider that what eg LG partially drives for expenses for a representative packaging, piano lacquer and inside samtähnlich, then the impression HTC is rather modest. But well, I do not want to use the package but the SmartPhone yes. For instructions, quick startup and a very successful power supply / data cables are included.

First impression of the processing: very valuable, good feel, easy and liegend.Die in hand battery and the memory card are already inserted, it just needs a release film be removed from the battery. The first opening of the housing causes abdominal pain because there with the aid of nails requires a certain effort of giving rise to fears that the arresting pin of the housing lid break. But is not so. The plastic is hard and tough, not prone to breaking. So went flawlessly.

The MicoSD card slot is located inside the new card is inserted so the housing must be opened, the battery is disconnected but so that the smartphone can remain switched on. Nevertheless, I would not advise a frequent change, should the closure system of the housing cover is not too often use to avoid wear on the lock cam.

Now the cell phone still loading that goes quite fast, about 1.5 hours and then the first turning. The 'boot' of the phone takes a perceived eternity, is just more computer than phone.

And now times very clear: of for gross pixelated display. That's simply not true. The display is clear, bright, of rich colors and makes an excellent impression, even outdoors in bright light, only in direct sunlight, it becomes problematic. Anyone from a 'normal' phone comes (me K810i and E63) will be thrilled. Who, of course, previously looked at an iPhone or AMOLED display will notice a drop in resolution. But this is then described as coarse resolution simply irrelevant and greatly exaggerated. The size of the display is sufficient only prolonged surfing is not much fun, but that does not much better even when slightly larger Desire. PinchtoZoom functioning properly. For real surfing on the couch you should buy more, on occasion, a Web Pad when these parts are available for times and cheaper. But then quite well under Android.

The setting is a soft Guide afloat by equip, a Google Account is helpful, my T-Online mail was quickly set up and the various screens also. (Almost) everything can be arbitrarily move, Widgets and App's can be combined individually, top!

About the Marketplace applications are quickly downloaded and installed, I have everything important Drava (there are in the network good must-have lists). From the train schedule on Taxiruf, ÖVPN and 'near' are to the surrounding boxes with collection times everything is available at no charge. So far I have not needed a lot Paid App.

The telephony function is impeccable, only the Speaker for open listening sounds quite tinny.

The camera and video function is good enough for a cell phone, for more one takes but then better the digital camera or video camera. For quick 'shot' in between or documentation as the flip chart sheets, the camera is always good.

The Market Place is naturally not a model of clarity on the phone display, the best way is to similar previously Google inform what you're looking for and wants to have and then targeted on the Market app download.

The service is pleasant, sometimes very mpfindlich, here a familiarization of keyboard phones is necessary, but in 2-3 days you get the grip.

What is not so great are the sensor keys for example are real keys while Desire. The sensor keys are very close to the lower soft keys of the display, as you arrived at least at first often wrong.

The optical mouse is available but what is to be good reveals itself to me rather less, I use them simply do not, but they do not interfere.

What is simply a bad design is the USB port on the side (the Desire it is bottom center). Although there is a docking, but has a small USB cable that you then have to side 'poke, great :(

Likewise, it is a pity that is not supplied with at least one Gummistöpselchen for the headphone jack, hopefully, the inner dust-proof.

Also not thought through the switch on top of the phone on and off, you must press only 1x, 2x short would be much better, because as that happens unintentionally or by pressure in the pocket, etc.

For power consumption: Everything we know of 'normal' mobile phones, ie 1 week, and happy times longer you can forget. In the set-up and match phase is the evening of the battery to 30% 'down, reloading is announced. Visitors should put on a screen you look at the energy management and the app for the mobile Internet. This allows the power hogs like WLAN, GPS, 3G, etc. selectively on and off. If one does so, for example at night, the mail will not be pushed, then while largely Telonienutzung also a service life of 2-2.5 days in there. But then you just use the functions wg. where you bought usually the part has not. The short charging time, it is unproblematic times quickly reload in the office or in the car. That's for other smart phones as well, even the much-praised IPhone. Who wants this technique has to live with it.

Bluetooth is available, can be used with other devices to pair, unfortunately I am not yet succeeded then also establish the connection. After google the problem does not seem to be unknown, but I have not found any solution to maybe someone has a tip.

The HTC Sync tool works, but it syncht only data directly on the PC on the Wildfire edit can not. That was just the Nokia Synctool ideal. Outlook data will be transferred, for example, the addresses, and new entries are gesyncht, strangely enough, not getting the changes made in records, since I'm still looking what it could be, hints are welcome.

The Radio and music functions I can not say anything because I do not use.

Absolutely recommended is a data flat, I have the 1GB data Flat of Simyo, which was good enough pull the data for all major functions.

Here again the positive and negative factors:

Plus:
- Free processing
- Haptic
- Display
- General functionality and operation
- App Market
- Equipped with system software including HTC Sense features

Minus:
- USB / power port side
- Closely spaced sensor and software keys
- Bluetooth apparently not yet mature
- Sync tool for improvement
- Power consumption / service life (no devaluation as typical system)
- Speaker sounding very tinny

None of the minuses is a real no-go. The device is really fun, and is effective for very reasonably priced. I can not newcomers to the Android app-world highly recommend they are not willing to lie almost doubled for the Desire, so ***** 5 Stars.
