I have to say that this is my first smartphone. Something I've played around with before a Samsung Galaxy S (me personally was far too clunky but super display!), Samsung Galaxy Ace and even the HTC Wildfire S. Ultimately I decided for the HTC because it is more compact than the Ace. From the service I both felt as pleasant. The HTC Wildfire S I set up within a few minutes, I have to say, easier than here, the wireless set up, for example, really go jo no longer well! HTC Bravo! The smartphone I use a "prepaid card" in the Austrian mobile network of "Bob". The Internet and MMS facility was here a little more demanding, but also went with a little research on the net apace (if someone needs help for Bob settings, simply send me an email: [email protected] ). Setting GMX Mail and Gmail account was super easy and went quickly. The operation of the touch display works very well (but I had concerns about text messaging was unfounded, simply take Phone cross and is very easy to type). The smartphone responds quickly to inputs, games I have not tried. The annoying T9 dictionary I immediately turned off. Download Personalize + different apps going even for a novice like me smart phone easy and hassle free. So far everything good and recommendable. So now the only (for me) negative point of HTC Wildfire S: the battery! with tinkering and adjusting much I have now brought to almost 2 days (approximately 10x the battery charged so far). I must say though, that I might max. 25 - 30min a day Surf, 10-15 SMS write and about 20-25min per day on the phone. Battery performance I would describe as mixed, given the fact that, in principle, any smartphone is associated with this problem ... ;-) Who just a phone wants one week durchält without re-charging the battery, should on no account to a Smartphone access - regardless of manufacturer Anyway ... For everyone else - buy recommendation for the HTC Wildfire S from me! PS equal Screen Protector and Bumper to order damits long "beautiful" remains.
