A good effort but with a person coming from an iPhone, it has a long way to go. Internet browsing is a nightmare, & downloading emails is slow, with not much control on how many emails you can download.

The touch screen is too small to be used with fingers, & stylus has to be used.
Screen resolution is good compared to previous HTCs but is nothing as good as the iPhone.

Had an iPhone for 2 years, not a scratch. Have HTC for 2 months, screen is full of scratches.

Good phone some great features hard to add what you want to it e.g. downloads not many & they have to be in a certain format to work. Can't have your own home screen the way you want it does not give you option to customize it. The ring tone is too low can't change it, when it's in your pocket etc can never hear it ringing.
