Nearly There....

Nov 5, 2008

Rating: 7 out of 10 (Very good)
Pros: Dual camera (front & back), Latest version MapKing preinstalled with free registration for 1 map, Good home screen interface, Full QWERTY keypad, nice camera (3MP CMOS color camera with auto focus on the back), Finger scrolling and panning, 3-way Jog Wheel
Cons: Awkwardly place buttons (placed near to the screen when screen is tilted), No maps of east Malaysia, Very bad phone reception
Opinion:
Overall, I'm satisfied with it. I gave it a 7 due to its good interface, slid out QWERTY keypad, tilted screen option and the preinstalled programs. Camera is good but lacking a flash but itÂ’s still ok. I've also read the petition on XDA developers about the QUALCOMM MSM7200 processor which HTC says, is "supposedly" fast. My real and only beef with this gadget is reception. ITÂ’S REALLY BAD! IÂ’m online nearly 70% of the day and I lose data connection half of the time. At first I was blaming the coverage of my network but I began to lose reception even going into a lift or a staircase. My Nokia 6100 gets better reception than this one! The constant reconnection of the data really drains the battery.
