to anyone who has or is getting this phone.there is a hidden front mounted camera in the top section of this phone where the HTC letters are situated sits an extremely small lens type device located at the top left hand corner of the phone.its made up of very dark tinted glass so its very hard to see unless you shine a very bright light on it. im just saying use caution when buying a new phone as we have no idea what these machines are capable of..spying on us or recording everything we do.
I just want to take this opportunity to pay respects to the original SIDEKICK phone for ground breaking many of the ideas used today like the sidekick app store and those ever so useful shortcuts. Miss the kicker.
Definitely my mistake saying this is the first HTC Android phone with a keyboard. I was thinking it was their first "superphone" with a keyboard, then decided that sounded lame, and I ended up with the silly statement you hear in the video. Oh well, still a nice phone :-)
The only thing I don't like about it, or maybe I just noticed it, but the screen doesn't go into "landscape" (sideways) mode unless you flip up the screen. That can be really annoying. Maybe that can be just an upgrade kinda thing that Android can handle?
Does anyone know if this will be able to upgrade to Android 3.0 because the requirements for 3.0 say 1GHz processor minimum but I've heard this phone's processor is really fast.
@AndyBonHelsing1 These statements were suggestions only, consider that the new qualcomm chip slimmed down to 45 nm with the new adreno 205 chip ( equivalent to iphone 4 powervr sgx 535 ) will be optimal to suit for gingerbread.
Look old phones like the Mytouch or G1 could handle 2.1 so why this phone should not ?
@vintoe absolutely not. HTC have made many phones with hardware qwerty keyboards. Early example would be the HTC Blueangel (2004) and more modern versions would be Touch Pro ('08) and Touch Pro 2 ('09).
In the video, he says it is the "first qwerty slider phone for Android." This is, as you pointed out, also wrong.
The HTC Dream, by some known as "T-mobile G1", was the first *Android* qwerty slider phone from HTC. Just not the first qwerty slider.
yo i hate the UK they get all the best phones first with all the new tech. Also i hate that the gms phones get built so well and CDMA phone are built so cheap. i love Verizon service but there phone are shit always plastic. Never any metal just cheap i would buy this if it had 1ghz snapdragon and 8gb of on board memory
Aww man, insane boot up speed, I hope this is the new snapdragon CPU working, if so the G2's boot up time should be faster than this by like a half second.
@jackfucker1 ... Are you calling the person in video a dumfuk, or me? if you directed it at me then, sorry to say your the dumfuk becaue the HTC dream/ G1 was the 1st qwerty with android...
