i have this phone for 6 months now and I am really pleased with him. it's a very good phone this price and has all the apps as the high end phone so there is no big diference. about the 1.6 android, i think its better to have a phone working flawllesly with 1.6 than buggy and slow with 2.0 because this phone maybe couldnt hande it right.
only thing is that after a little while it started to slow down because to much apps but i dont think this should happen.

@joshskaterrocker Im in a similer boat dude, its either this or the bb curve 8520.. I just cant decide, i guess this is an android phone with seemingly better features which may sway me in the end.. Hmm
Hi i was wondering if someone could tell me. Im thinking of getting this on a contract, would that mean i could use msn and facebook (internet is included in contract) cause i cant decide wether to get this phone, the xperia mini or the blackberry curve 8520.. Please reply :)
i want to move to android in the summer miss android had the g1 and loved now had a couple of phones since then now i have the iphone and I hate it can you root the tattoo
Does this phone update automatically all its applications (like meteo, twitter, facebook) even if we don't want to use the 3G connection, but only the wifi ? Can we set it to only use the wifi? Please answer =) !!!
There's a cool option to start the mobile without internet, so you dont get charged.. I was worrying about the same thing but Android is really intelligent there. You can press and activate mobile internet when you wish. Another great thing is that if it has to choose between 3G and WiFI it will automatically choose WiFi so you dont have to pay.
I just got this phone today and its like you say amazingly fast. Altho as its my first touch phone I ever use its realy hard to get used too but thats problem at my part, the phone seem to work flawlessly so far... :) only had it for 10 hours but yeah I like it. And as its small and I hope it will get pretty good battery life :)
the tatto give you 7 home screens, facebook/twitter integration (unique to android), gps, decent camera, replacable battery and loads of features. and its super fast. see the video.
whats a dounut phone? im getting a new phone does anyone have any advice i really like the tattoo but i also really like the LG crystal because of the s class interface
I juz got my htc tattoo this week and it's great. The problem is tat I does not know how to sent thing through the Bluetooth. The music is louder than the other htc phone.
Resistive screens get a bad review, I have one and they're not bad, they easy, you just need to be careful and respect the screen and it will respect your comands.
I've not tried HTC's resistive touch screen but I have tried MgW's and it was dreadful. Then I tried a Nokia 5800 screen and it was also terrible to start with but then Nokia released a firmware upgrade and the sensitivity was increased and it was much better!! I might buy one of these tattoo's today. I'm hoping that the email functionality is good on it.
Well the Touch 2 and Tattoo's are tweeners, not AMAZING but Tattoo has Android making it better than the Touch2, otherwise they're exactly the same.~
I find the screen easy to use, although everynow and then the unlock touch pully (you know, move to unlock thing) will take 3 swipes of the finger, but generally it's ok.
The camera isn't amazing, it's fine in daytime, but at night DREADFUL, so I hope you have a seperate digital camera, also the internet is AMAZING on the HTC's..
I just got mine :-) Am very impressed with the resistive screen!! I can use the tip of my finger instead of my nail (which I had to on the 5800). Not sure which keyboard I like best yet though....think I need time to adjust. I hope they bring Android 2 to the Tattoo. I emailed HTC before I bought the phone and they said they didn't know yet but could confirm that they bringing it to the Hero....here's to hoping! Very quick response from them. Gives a good impression about customer service...
Very nice review! I'm also planing to get one. It's pretty affordable, and from what I've seen on the internet, looks like a great price/value ratio. I played a little bit with the phone in a mobile operator showroom, works very well, I could type with pretty good precision even though I don't really have small thumbs. That was my major concern, but I was proven wrong :)
Q> Can you assign a video clip (e.g. music video) to a contact as a ringtone?
resistive requires a firm press on the screen, requires pressure. capacitive does not and so is supposedly better - but id rather apply a bit of pressure to the screen. my viewty has resistive and its fine. with haptic feedback (screen vibrates when you press something) texting is great because it feels like real buttons - something you wont get with capacitive.
Battery life - I get 1-2 days out of mine. I charge by habit at night time anyway, so it doesn't bother me. Also, I hook it up to charge whilst i'm in the car.
Ja imam n97. "I personaly like it better" se odnosilo na resistive touchscreen. A i ne bih mogao da ih probam, jer ne postoje. Ti misliš verovatno na garmin mape za simbijan. Za android neće verovatni nikad ni postojati, jer im Google ne da. Verovatno znaš da je android google-ov, a da google ima svoje mape. Monopol, šta ćeš...
I have a Tattoo. I think the screen is definitely its weakest flaw. The resistive touch is decent after you get used to it (but you still need to get used to it), but my biggest criticism is the resolution. After switching from a G1 you're getting a lot less real estate (exactly half, in fact).
You've logged into the Android Market there, and there seem to be a lot of apps - has the problem with the lower screen resolution been solved; can you download all apps that someone with a Hero etc. can ?
You can. Mobiles is like computers, you need to care about the operating system. Like nokia got S60 OS Then HTC Uses Windows Mobile And Android Sense. This one and Hero got Android Sense.
