Preview of HTC desire!

So, this is the current flagship device for the company HTC in Pakistan until HTC Desire HD arrives. The desire is an amazing device. This device has a 1GHz Processor which is blazing fast and makes browsing the Internet a breeze on this phone which cannot be compared to any other phone available in the market today. It has full flash support unlike the iPhone which makes viewing web pages on the phone identical to the computer. Also you can capture High Definition videos on the phone at 720p which is going to be a definite plus for a lot of people. This device has been a killer device in HTC's portfolio since under a year and is still competitive or better than current releases from other manufacturer's.
the HTC sense User Interface deserves a separate mention. This is basically a skin over the normal android UI and adds so much more to the overall experience leaving rival LG, Sony and Samsung android phones way behind. A video of the sense UI is attached below.

In Pakistan this phone will currently set you back RS. 39,990/- rupees as you can see here. This phone will be out of the reach of many because of the price but at this price is in your range, this is an absolute editor's pick for now!
