The HTC Desire, codenamed Bravo, is a smartphone developed by the HTC Corporation, the mobile phone manufacturer that previously released the popular ‘Nexus One’ device. The new ‘HTC Desire’ was officially announced on 16th February 2010, and was then released in Europe and Australia shortly after. The handset itself boasts one of the most intuitive and intelligent processor/operating system teams in any current smartphone, using a 1 GHz Snapdragon processor, and running the Android operating system, version 2.1. The Desire also includes a very receptive active-matrix OLED (AMOLED) screen that runs excellently alongside the 5-megapixel digital camera that comes equipped. In terms of design, the Desire bears a strong resemblance to its predecessor, the Nexus One, but the features are far more advance. The hardware (that is the Snapdragon processor and the Android operating system) actually has the potential to deliver high-definition video, despite HTC not listing this as one of the phones features. That’s because, reliant on future updates from the manufacturer, the HTC Desire could use Android to take advantage of the video circuitry onboard the Snapdragon processor, and therefore enabling the device to deliver video in high definition (720p on a WVGA screen). In North America, the smartphone should be available in July, from US Cellular, and in Canada (around July/August time) on Telus Mobility. In Europe however, carriers already announced include Vodafone UK, Vodafone Ireland, Meteor Irl, T-Mobile UK, O2, Orange UK, 3, and Virgin Mobile UK. In Australia, HTC are selling the Desire exclusively through Telstra. The smartphone is already on the market in both Japan, and in South Korea, with the device hitting shelves in April and May respectively. As well as the normal brown version, in the UK, Orange will be selling an exclusive black version of the handset also, and the country has seen a huge demand for the device already. Vodafone UK, 3, T Mobile, and Orange, and just some of the networks that have experienced such a demand that they are having problems processing all orders.
