The HTC Smart Touch phone may not be a power-packed Android with a super-fast processor like the HTC Desire or HTC Legend, but it certainly has its charms, too. This little HTC invention has really lived up to its tagline of being “quietly brilliant.” The company hasn’t launched a global marketing spree for this one and it doesn’t need to either, the phone speaks for itself. This phone is definitely a smart choice.
The phone is available in pink, white and black colors and also has a plausible design.
HTC Smart doesn’t have many features or an app store, but it does have all the necessary things you need and use on a daily basis. Indeed, it is a 21st century phone that gives you good performance and is reasonably priced. Many reviewers are true when they say that this is HTC’s entry-level, so anyone can use it. You really don’t have to be a high-tech person to figure this out.
It is a 104 x 55 x 12.8 mm semi-smartphone with a 2.8-inch screen. It has 3G connectivity but lacks wi-fi. There is also Bluetooth, USB data cable connection for other data connections.
A great feature of the phone is the integrated Facebook and Twitter applications that help you keep in touch with your friends. It also has smart dial, 3.5mm jack, micro SD card slot that can add up to 16GB of external memory, and a 3-megapixel resolution camera with LED flash. Seriously, what doesn’t this phone have considering it’s the cheapest HTC phone to date? However, it has been packed with brilliant features. The QWERTY keyboard has also been rated as quite good as typing is easy and convenient. It doesn’t have many flaws.
The browser has received a lot of criticism for being too slow and the fact that this phone does not have multitasking is also a major problem for those who are used to expensive Android phones. There is no camera for video calls and there is no voice dialing either. The software also doesn’t support an app store, so the number of apps on HTC Smart is restricted to the ones that come pre-installed. As we said before, this phone was not built for luxury purposes but for practical users. It has been dubbed as an “entry level” phone.
In general, this phone is for average people who don’t want to spend too much money on a phone that can’t work. The HTC Smart is easy to use and packed with all the necessary features one would expect from a basic “entry level” phone. If you’re looking for something affordable and convenient, this phone might be the one for you.
