HTC Status: Near Complete Success
14 years ago
The HTC Status. The new "Facebook phone." Commercially exploded lately. I have owned this phone for awhile now, and I can truly say this is a great phone. I don't seem to have any serious, debilitating problems with it; works great, follows up on all advertised services, etc. But, may I warn you, that everything they say it is, is what it is, nothing extra. It's kind of like seeing the previews to a movie on TV, and you know what it's all about. That kind of thing... But anyways, it seems like a pretty cool, seamless phone. I intend on keeping it unless an issue is brought up...Not much else to say. The Facebook button is much smaller than it looks like in pictures and advertisements, but it's not a problem and I believe it may be an advantage. I would say it's a little bit smaller than the size of the end of the eraser on a pencil (Picture below). For some reason I can't download some items from the Android Market, which was kind of disappointing but I got over it. Another small problem of mine is that there aren't many settings for some things. Now later on I do say that it's very customizable, but I mean that in that sense, not in the Settings sense. There's some things I want to tweak in applications such as messaging, gallery, people, etc., but sadly I can't find a TRUE Setting possibility for those items. Otherwise, super fast speed, durable (to this point, at least), very easy to text on, customizable, and handles great. Phone quality is not the best, but it surely works just fine. It might sound like I've listed a lot of Cons, but really I do find this a truly amazing phone. Love it so much, and it fits to all of my requirements. A great camera on it, too. 5MP (Megapixels) I think? A very good camera for pictures and videos. Very easy to use, not difficult to learn your way around it, but it's not TOO simple either. A lot of people have complained about the battery life not being good at all; and I have no clue what they're talking about! As long as you stay mostly off of games and apps and such, this phone lasts from 7am to 10pm at night. It seriously lasts all day, and I text and surf the web and use my phone a lot. A lot of people have complained about the size of the screen; that's definitely not something to worry about, either. The screen is adequate if not MORE than adequate, even if you're using it portrait-style. Perfect sized screen. Love the fact that you can use it on Wi-Fi networks, too. Saves a lot of money/usage on your data plan. Don't worry about the battery life AT ALL, if you've read other reviews. Ooh, and one more thing; LOVE LOVE LOVE the touchscreen!!! Not a fan of full touch phones, but this comes with a navigable arrow set on the keyboard, too, so you can use that for some tasks. You will use the touchscreen to get to pretty much everything, though. This is a great phone for a texter or typer, but if you're not very tech-savvy, it's definitely not the phone for you. I love this phone. Great job, HTC!!

Huge mistake
14 years ago
The overall idea of this phone is good but it does not deliver. I've had it for almost a month now and I've hated it since about the third day. It keeps freezing on me, the memory and battery are beyond poor. And the screen is pretty small. I've downloaded about 6 apps and if I try to download more it starts to freeze and my Facebook will not update.. Really! It's a Facebook phone. You'd think if all else fails, atleast the Facebook will work. That is not the case. The only cool thing about the phone is the keyboard. Also when your in the middle of texting and you get a new text it cuts you off and sends you to the top of the conversation, this is extremely annoying!

not enough memory.
13 years ago
I like the way the phone looks and how it has a full non-touch keyboard for texting. But, this phone has no memory what so ever! It is not meant to be a smartphone at all. I can't download apps because the ones that came with the phone already take up almost all the space. At one point I couldn't read or send texts. I have a 4 gb memory card and only 40 some pictures and most the time can't take any or even look at the ones I have already taken because the memory is so low. I also could not use the internet because of the terrible memory space, which kind of defeats the purpose of having a smartphone. I took it in to the AT&T store and had only 1mb of memory left. It took forever to free up enough space to be able to do the software upgrade that they said would help. After doing the upgrade, I ended up having 118mb of space, so it did help a lot. I will just have to manage my apps every night and clear the data so I will be able to have enough room to do other things on my phone.
