Sadly the HTC Desire is already on a FedEx van but our second day with the HTC Desire is here. This time there's comparisons with the HTC Hero and the Windows-powered HTC HD2. I also take a look at Google Maps and the Street View system, YouTube and …
It's still processing as I type, but our unboxing and overview video is now online. If you're thinking of buying the HTC Desire then click on, this is one very quick handset and has great specs including a speedy 1Ghz CPU, 3.7" AMOLED screen, WiFi and...
Our first unboxing video is currently being processed on YouTube so, until that's baked, you can soak up our up-close gallery. The Desire is a little lighter than I remember and isn't overly large despite the capacious 3.7" screen. It's certainly very...
OK, we're getting some confusing messages this evening on the HTC Desire. It started this morning when we heard that there was a possible delay to the handset for T-Mobile customers. Later today we had an update from the the T-Mobile Twitter account -...
We're at it again. This weekend we've managed to get just 48 hours with the highly HTC Desire. Powered by a 1Ghz CPU it has 576MB RAM and quad-band GSM / dual-band HSPA / WCDMA connectivity. Around the back there's a 5 megapixel auto-focus camera with...
We've had a quite a few emails relating to the HTC Desire on T-Mobile. Apparently the Desire has failed testing and it's very unlikely to appear in shops on Monday as stated. Other sources are now telling us that it could be another week or two before...
If you're after the HTC Legend on a contract then we've got some deals for you. The HTC Legend deals are available here. You can get it free plus bag yourself £70 cash-back by redemption as you progress through the contract too. We've done quite a bi...

Well lookie here, it's the HTC Desire on the T-Mobile website. Costing absolutely nothing on certain plans, this 1Ghz monster Android phone is now available (yes, live!) and there'll no doubt be quite a few people doing a lunchtime rush to their local...
Virgin Media has now announced that it will be carrying the HTC Desire too. The network already carries the Windows-powered HTC HD2 and has also just ranged the Android-powered Samsung Galaxy with the Xperia X10 also set to arrive soon. At the moment ...

Our HTC Legend story from last week didn't mention one quite important detail. Yes, the rather excellent HTC Legend we've covered is coming to Vodafone UK, but it's exclusive to Vodafone UK. Apart from the unlocked versions from our store and devicewi...
There was another huge Android announcement at MWC that is of course the HTC Legend which is an upgrade to the Hero that so many people loved last year (it also won phone of the year!) Now in a aluminium unibody case with the new version of Sense...
Today is fast becoming a day for Vodafone to put up pre-orders on their coming soon section. Earlier today we brought you news that the Nexus One was available to register your information for over on the official Vodafone website and now comes ...
We've just put the final HTC Legend video online. It was filmed just minutes before the FedEx guy turned up to take the handset away - there was a mad fumble as I pulled the SIM and microSD card out and stuck it back in the jiffy bag. …
Clove have the HTC Legend down to be released on the 23rd March (not long to go!) for a sim free price of £376.00 which is pretty reasonable. eXpansys list for slightly less at £369.99 but you will have to wait until 6th Aoril to get...

Today we've got the 'old close-up camera and filmed another HTC Legend video. This time it's a look at the new features on the very latest version of HTC Sense (Android). This is Android 2.1 and we've got the final build of the OS and Sense GUI on …
Yesterday we showed you some comparison shots taken on the HTC Hero and HTC Legend. A few of you said that there wasn't much difference, but I'm determined to show the difference in quality. Last night, after a few drinks, I stumbled out into the gard...
Quite a few sites appear to have a HTC Legend review unit, but here at coolsmartphone.com we've got something that no-one else has. It's revealed 4 minutes and 45 seconds into our mammoth unboxing video. The video starts literally minutes after the Fe...
We've played around with the HTC Hero for quite some time now. It has a 5 megapixel auto-focus camera but then, so has the all-new HTC Legend we've got hold of. How do the two compare? Well, I can tell you that finally, after all these years, HTC …
We now have a rather massive video showing the new HTC Legend being unboxed and generally fiddled with by my good self. There's also yet more photos of the Legend, plus comparison shots and super up-close pictures. We've already had some of your quest...
Keep an eye on the site this weekend, because we've got a little surprise for you all. We took a shine to a certain handset at Mobile World Congress last month. The HTC Legend was launched alongside the HTC Desire and a Windows Mobile device called th...
There's an interesting story on theregister.co.uk this morning regarding the HTC Hero. According to the item there's issues accessing the Android Marketplace on the Orange-branded model following the recent update. I've tested it here and not had a p...
We've already had a few pics of it, now there's a video too. It's not really an "action" video though, this just shows the camera and the phone generally being waved around in an effort to make you sea-sick. This is another Android device which is ru...
We love the look of the new HTC Legend. But, to take it to bits? That'd be just crazy. The guys at mforum.ru have done just that though, and we get a closer look at how this recently announced device is put together. They've taken the innards of …
We've taken another look at the HTC Desire this morning following our hands-on video from yesterday. Click on to see it in action, this time with a bit more light.. (Note, the video is still being processed by YouTube, so quality might be low)Link - H...
Yesterday we did a video overview of the Desire and Legend but I wanted to show each handset in better light. Here's the HTC Legend video. We actually started taking it to bits on the HTC stand this afternoon.. ;) Link - HTC Legend Video Demonstration
When we first saw it at the London launch we walked out of the event half-way through. We were Windows Mobile "only" then but, after having the device in our hands for the week after, we were won over. It did compete well with the iPhone, it did …
It's not often I post a whole YouTube video on the front page, but this one is worthg watching. This is the HTC Legend and HTC Desire - a full 12 minutes of hands-on fun. I'll not describe everything, just watch it... (it's still processing, so qualit...
Today we got some quality hands-on time with the HTC Legend after we sneaked a peek yesterday. We compared it our Android benchmark - the HTC Hero. The design is similar in some ways, but not in others. The Legend is built from a single piece of alumi...
Well, after the announcement and the confirmation from Orange, it looks like T-Mobile are getting in on the act too. The 1Ghz Android Desire is now sitting on the T-Mobile UK website with a link for updates. We got to play with the Desire today (video...
This morning I was supposed to be blogging from the HTC press announcement but at fate would have it my metro train broke down and I was unable to attend. Thankfully Gears was on hand to post the press information. I have just had some han...
Well, there you go - just minutes after we were told by Yves Maitre himself, it's now confirmed that the HTC Desire will be coming to Orange. The best bit ? You've not got long to wait. This could be the tipping point for a lot of our …
Meet the HTC Desire. This is another Android device, again with 2.1 (Eclair) and the excellent HTC Sense interface. It's got a large 3.7" 480x800 WVGA AMOLED screen and .. wait, isn't that the Bravo we spotted before? Indeed it is. The name has change...
This is the HTC Legend. It's the Android-powered device we spotted yesterday on the Vodafone stand so it's pretty safe to say that Vodafone will be picking this up. Many are already calling it the "Hero 2" due to the "chin" and we can plainly see Andr...
Dan here from Mobile World Congress, just taking some time out from my Sony Ericsson duty to post some Android news for you all. Although not announced yet, Vodafone have jumped the gun with the HTC Legend and have it on display in their stand. I man...
In what is a big 'whoops' moment from KPN, just days before Mobile World Congress and they have leaked the HTC Legend to the world (as if we didn't know already) but this is the first network who has come out and said they are ranging this device. …
The HTC Legend got snapped just the other day. We're assuming this will be the successor to the Hero and, as you can see, that chin "ain't going nowhere" (apologies for the double-negatives). Engadget now have another shot along with a specs list. The...
