HTC Desire Z Review

HTC have been rapidly expanding into the smartphone market specifically with Android operating system. They have released the most Android enabled smartphones this year and it looks as though if they had there way they would be the sole manufacturer supporting the platform!

The HTC Desire Z has the same OS as the Desire HD and is fairly similar. There main differences being the physical fold out QWERTY keyboard (which folds out on a hinged system) and slightly smaller display. The keyboard comes with a track pad making the navigation a bit easier, the keyboard itself comes in at 119 x 60.4 x 14.6mm making it a pretty handy phone and easy to compose a quick email or text message. Physically the Desire Z is heavier than the HD due mainly to the sterdy feeling keyboard.

Rounding the Desire Z up, I am not as impressed with the Z as I was the HD although I do like its size and the keyboard is a real bonus to phone users who might want to go HTC but are put off by the sheer size of the phone and the lack of any physical keyboard or keypad.

HTC have come a long way and I believe we can expect to see more great developments from them in the coming months. I would especially watch out over the Christmas and New Year period as they maybe launching yet another product (it would’nt supprise me they churn them out like cats do kittens.. this one like the HTC Wildfire is the runt of the litter)
