HTC Wildfire : An Impressive Phone

By Mark Walters


Keeping up with the latest technology is important to most people in today's society. One way people are doing this is by switching to smartphones for their communication needs. Smartphones are not new but they have recently entered the mainstream. One of the top providers of smartphones is HTC. They have a wide variety of products that mostly run on Google's android software. One of their newest phones is the one we will be discussing here: The HTC Wildfire.

If you have ever owned the HTC Desire then you might recognize this phone's design. It is similar in many ways and also shares some characteristics with the Nexus One. Despite the fact that it is designed to be an entry level smartphone it has much to offer. Features include a 582 MHz processor and 384 Mb of ram. The screen is a decent size with a 3.2" viewing area and the onboard camera takes pictures up to 5 megapixels.

The wildfire performs well, offering a variety of HTC proprietary widgets that allow you to maximize your communication needs. Friendstream allows you to keep up with all of the major social network sites and the music player supports a variety of formats. We suggest using headphones though because the external speaker leaves a little to be desired. The apps run smoothly most of the time and if there is something additional you need, simply find and download it from the android market.

When it comes to applications, some of them may have issues with crashing. This is known as force closing. While there may be issues with some, others run seamlessly. You should also be aware of the battery life of this device. It is advertised to have a life of around 12 hours, depending on the tasks that you have running on the device. These tasks include taking photos, videos, and connecting to the web, talking on the phone and texting.

In order to maintain a price point that is in line with other entry level phones, HTC uses a standard LCD screen. Despite this, there are no problems with the view. To sum it up, this phone is just what people who are new to smartphones need. People looking for a smartphone without a contract will find its low price advantageous. The HTC Wildfire offers many great features for its users at a price that is affordable.
