Hm love this phone I own it. Well this is solid phone. It is fine but at times when running real time processing like AUDIO DSP or intense RAM usage it seems to jitter. But it is solid and amazing and yet beautiful. The audio output is not too powerful but Audio CLarity and sound quality is great. The screen is great, the battery
life is fine if tweaked a little. SD Card size of up to 32 GB is great love that. It is just brilliant device. Def beats iPhone 3GS and 3G!
@candytoss Depends if you want more speed in a phone or more durability but not to far behind in the speed. More speed Desire S, A lot more durability but not that far in speed and tech The Legend.
prolly muffled because ya dropped in a test... derh! lol nice phone though... sorta wondering if i wanna venture into smartphone land or stick with basic phones. lol
I want to get this phone to replace my retro samsung a640. I was wondering if i should get the Legend with Virgin, or if I should switch to Telus and get the Desire... any thoughts?
@ScreaminBeastly61 well, i went to wirless wave and tried this out and my friend has the desire. The Desire is slightly older, and i think its lower quality, Other than that its pretty much the same, but this phone is also $50 less, for the same screen, android, etc. i would go with this one
@Aerosmithfan507 Oh really? I thought the Desire was newer than the Legend. The Desire has a 1GHz Processor while the Legend only has a 800 MHz processor... anyways thanks for the suggestion. I just wanna get rid of my old flip phone. haha
@ScreaminBeastly61 no problem, the Desire is a few months older i believe, but i have samsung flight that i wanna get rid of, so im getting either this one (legend) which i would have to unlock or a Blackberry Curve 9300 or 8520. But your right the deisre is faster than this but still, anything has gotta be better than an ancient flip phone, lol
@ScreaminBeastly61 sorry guys just to clarify things. The HTC legend is the replacement for the hero and is considered a mid range phone, hence the 800mhz clock. The Desire is a top end phone that is more or less identical to the nexus one (bar htc sense and the hardware bottons). Hope this helped!
Hello you guys! if someone could answer this that would be awesome! I have an issue with the Conversations in sms on my HTC Legend. It does not automaticly scroll down to the bottom when i open a sms thread so i have to scroll past 200 messages to get down to the bottom! I tried restoring it but nothing happened. Pease help me. Cheers
phone is not bad, but after sale service is terrible!! My phone was sent to their service centre, had been damaged during the repair. called to their customer care, they promised will call back 48 hours never called... rubbish service
i have been wanted this phone but dont want to go on the contract so i was just wondering if i just bought the phone out right can i still use the internet through wifi? plz help..and also if i can use skype on this android device...my provider is virgin mobile <--sucks
Ive watched camera test's drop test's and now this review , and it all looks promising but if i am going to be on a contract what would be better this or the iphone 3gs ?

for games, the iphone win
for design and non easily breakable its the htc legend who wins.
Legend = design, social phone, some games
iPhone = easy to break, but really good hardwarespecs!

@IcyFr33ze if u gonna buy it for good price choose the htc legend but if u gonna play games on it buy the "htc wildfire S" or HTC Gratia.
