I’ve been in the market for a new mobile since December, when I ran out of contract. But ever since the Nexus One was released in US, I knew I had to wait until a android phone was released on the Telstra network here in Perth. Being Telstra, I figured I’d be waiting forever.
I have been following android for maybe a year. I really believe android will give iPhone a run for it’s money.
Well the wait is finally over. Telstra have announced that they are releasing the HTC Desire.
I am hanging out for it’s release what a great phone. I have been reading reviews of some of the differences between the Nexus and the HTC Desire.
Both feature the below
* 3.7″ (94mm) 480×800 WVGA, AMOLED capacitive touch screen with pinch-to-zoom capability
* Android™ 2.1 (Éclair)
* microSD™ memory card (SD 2.0 compatible) supports up to 32 GB
* 5 megapixel color camera with LED flash
* G-Sensor, digital compass, proximity sensor, ambient light sensor
Pros between Models
Nexus One
* Active noise cancelling mic (over standard style)
* Speech to text (where the HTC doesn’t – out of the box !?!)

* UMTS 850/2100 MHz & HSDPA

To be completed . . . . .
