Touch screens, touch screens, touch screens… does the monotony ever cease? Well, even though the HTC Hero does have a touch screen, it does appear that the mobile phone manufacturer has made a concerted effort to also include buttons into the fascia of the touch screen phone in question, giving it a dynamic look in contrast to the rows of copycat models that are currently dominating the shelves.
Many mobile phone manufacturers have achieved sleekness by making their phones flat, contoured and rectangular. As you see when you take a look at the HTC Hero, this device looks extremely distinguished because of the bottom of the phone, which protrudes away from the flat screen to make the phone more punctuated. It could be said that the phone looks slightly like a flip phone when the flap is down, like a good mobile phone should.
A good shock to the system is the presence of buttons, all of which share a purpose in the phone?s usability. To the left and right edges of the array of four buttons which are present on the model, there are two buttons which allow the user to accept and reject calls, with the other buttons that are on show making Internet navigation a bit of a treat. This comes as Flash support and multi-touch for when you are having a browse on the web are included as standard.
HTC have taken the success of Android and have personalised it to make it fit into the phone?s look, feel and purpose. HTC phones have a track record of having an emphasis on social-networking and Hero?s contribution to the roster of models has not let its predecessors down. The Facebook client is just one of the social-networking apps which have been optimised for mobile phone use in an extremely feasible way.
A brief look to the specs reveals that there is no internal memory for users to play with and there is sole reliance on microSD cards more or less. You can find solace in the fact that you can have as much as 32GB of external storage in the form of these memory cards, which can be more than enough to exploit the fantastic music and video clients that the phone presents (and with a standard headphone jack, you would hope this would be the case!).
The camera is good, too: 5 megapixels, to be exact. This is great when you have the lighting all set up and ready for your picture, but may not be too good for the impulsive snaps that many people take whilst they are on the road. This phone does not have any flash, meaning that night shots are a no-no with this model.
Before you go racing to the shops to register you interest in having this model, it could be worth noting that the name isn?t just HTC Hero if you are in the UK. This is because the Hero is also commonly referred to as the T-Mobile G2 Touch in the UK, despite the phone being available on the Orange network, also. The past couple of months have been an un-debatable success for HTC, with this latest model being the ?hero? of the line they offer.
