HTC Smart - User Reviews

  • This phone is outdated, but I am still using it as it is a very useful phone. It is just useful, not smart. It is a bit disappointed that it can't connect to wifi. However, it can still phone and surf the internet using data. The most important is: it is unbreakable. I drop it on the phone for 100+ times, but it never breaks, just like Nokia 3310. Now, I even show to my friend dropping my phone! Indeed, it is not a smart phone (although it's name is HTC smart), but it is certainly a good phone ti use.

  • my htc laptop and phone i have lost my manual i cannt get where to turn on the phone for the past one 1year i have not been using the phone becous i can put it up please help me put it on i need the phone to be put on

  • My HTC Smart has the same problem, second phone of the same model I've had [the shop I bought it from would only replace] and they keep giving me the 'Oops, system error has occurred. Restarting' message. To begin with HTC claimed it was my service provider's fault, then later accepted blame but did nothing to help or offer a solution other than to factory reset it [you lose everything, unless you save to sim or the memory card]. Frankly, I've completely lost faith in HTC and would never buy from them again.

  • my htc keeps comin up with the oops error message too it really gets on my nerves its been sent off twice for that reason and it keeps doing it.

  • my HTC keeps freezing on me. It makes it so i cant listen to music unless i go to 'file browser' and listen to each song individually. If my phone dies, i have have to turn it off or it restarts its self, i cant view any pictures until i move them in to a different folder (really don't understand that). sometimes if i'm listening to music through headphones, it plays through the speaker As well as the headphones, and other times it tells me it doesn't recognize the device... i got the headphones with the phone... it bloody should recognize the device. I have a problem at the moment, i cant use the internet. anyone know what the settings should be? Im on GiffGaff network, which is a add on to O2. Please help, my phone has already been thrown down the stairs.

  • Well, here's the solution: take out the battery, put it back, and turn the phone on... If you get really pissed-off, simply smash it against the wall, like I did to mine :) ( It's still working :)

  • I bought HTC Smart, and I'm definitely dissapointed in it! There are some good features, such as camera(pictures only, video lags A LOT, even if in slightly darker area than in open @ noon... Decent quality pictures(2048*1536), though...A couple of(stupid) games, no downloadable games...Slow CPU(300 MHz)... No Wi-Fi... Every couple of hours, I get the message: "Ooops! A system error has occured. Restarting" . 1st time, I waited 4 5 minutes, and nothing happened, so I took battery out... But, 4 less than $100, it's not that bad...

  • Mine keeps freezing doing just about anything on it, and I get the 'oops an error has occurred. Restarting' message a lot. Anyone else have this problem or know how to solve it?

  • guyz i bought thz cell yesterday. lets see wht amazing in it.....

  • internet is not at all working after the subscription of internet packs. but it will work by without activating internet packs

  • i have HTC smart, my phone make restarting and tell me notification (Ooops! a system error has ocurred... restarting! ) and it repeated again and again, so the phone cant turned on. is anybady that can halp me?? thank u for understanding me.

  • well i don't suggest anybody to buy this cellphone because i bought this two days before & this don't have any special spec in it even the camera quality is not good just it's style is smart nothing else

  • try and upgrade ur HTC smart !!!!

  • i have a htc smart. realy awesome phone. but when i dial someones number and press the call button, suddenly within few seconds it`s showing ending call. Please help me guyz

  • Good phone for the first month then went drastically downhill. Starting with the good points, HTC has defiantly thought about the design and the feel and look of the phone is awesome, the interface of the brew OS is run of the mill and looks fine and the camera seemed to work nicely with 3mp. Now the bad points. The phone is incredibly slow, sometimes takes two minuets to bring up contents or app menu (due to the slow processor), the touch screen works alright but with the phone being so slow it could take 30 seconds to register your touch (annoying if texting) the screen is low res so it makes it look a bit tacky. The battery life is laughable with the phone lasting less than 12 hours while on stand-by. The HTC smart is the worst phone I've ever used. I even had to fork out more money to buy a blackberry as I was on a two year contract. Only buy this phone if its under £1

  • takes long to start up .the power pin is the phone was faulty sent to htc from durban and all my data was deleted .i cannot view my sms and delete sms also

  • y doesn't it suppotr mxit

  • This is the worst phone that i have ever used and i hate HTC and i will recommend this to anyone i wish to take revenge

  • Heh heh heh......I suggest not selling it to ANYONE. A true piece of JUNK !! If u plug the earphone in, when u plug - out, the speaker gets muted until u restart the damn phone ! Camera is good, but it needs people to stand still like a goddamn statue which is not possible especially for a child. I took at least 200 pics of my niece (2 years old), 190 of them got blurred for the movement !! ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC !!!

  • Yes, good to know that u're not gonna buy it. What a true piece of JUNK HTC has produced !! :(

  • Nasty piece of junk! I had network problems, software problems and camera rubbish! I bought it from O2 for £40 and I thought it was a bargain. I soon realised I had been conned. The camera takes very blurred pictures if an object is moving and video is pathetic. Id put the music player on and people would look at me strange because Id have my headphones in and sound would be coming out of the speaker as well as the headphones. Id try ringing people and wouldnt connect unless I changed to 2g. When the message inbox got full then the phone slowed down badly. Awful sound sucks. I sold it just in time. Suggest you dont sell to a friend.

  • cooollll fon in reasonable price

  • ha ha quite well said. Actually i had a bit intrst 2 buy it nw i hv 2 go 4 andr 1 as i don want 2 b cursed :D

  • how can i format my cell............. m using dat 1.........

  • is there anyone here that can give me a battery for this phone please i need a battery for this phone?

  • Worst phone ever created. Honestly do not understand how they can sell such a faulty item! The 'new phone buzz' you get everytime you get a new mobile lasted a week for me - as it broke after 8days. I have had it for a year now due to a contract, I have had it repaired 3 times and replaced with a new model. O2 finally understands and they are now replacing it with a different phone - a good phone. Do not get this phone, a brick Nokia would be a better option. Hope this helps

  • Of course yes. I also got very bad experience with phone & now I want to replace.

  • How do you download Whatspp on the Htc smart because I can't.

  • best phone ever

  • I thought it was a good phone at first but the touch quickly went bad and i had to replace it because it was basically impossible to text and do anything. it was even hard to switch on! not a very good buy.

  • htc smart

  • Awesome Camera clearity with flash

  • -how to have an animated wallpaper-

  • -why is my htc smart phone restarting even if i didn't do anything with it...and how to remove easily my messages without clearing it up one by one...-

  • Battery's life is too short!

  • To be honest, it's a "D U M B" phone. :( I purchased this phone on November 29, 2011 and since then, it's been a headache to me.....I'm from Bangladesh and I use 2 connections (GrameenPhone and Robi - which was previously known as Aktel). I used Robi sim on my HTC Smart....it went well for first 3 days, in the 4th day, I found that my phone's on but no one could reach me !! I checked the phone & found it ON!! I restarted the phone and the phone became ok. But this problem went back again and again with irregular intervals. I searched the web for the firmware update, downloaded it from HTC website, but the update couldn't be installed ! I inserted GrameenPhone SIM then, it didn't show any problem and ran well. The other thing is, One day, I inserted the headphone (obviously original one from HTC) for listening to music. After listening, I (gently) pulled off the jack, after that the phone's earpiece stopped working !! This problem was gone when I restarted the phone. NOW MY QUESTION IS....how many times will I have to restart my cell?? Why is Robi SIM not working on this Set??? I've got rid of that phone giving it to my wife and she's using it with GrameenPhone (as she says it takes great pictures at least, so don't sell it away, if u sell it, u may have got curses from people!!)

  • It may be becoz of socket problem. i too had the same issue.. i started using different headset and after few days that icon disappeared . and now i am using my htc headset and its working good.

  • I dont know of multypayer but I play youtube on this phone using bolt2.5. Simply download bolt2.5 from boltbrowser.com

  • HTC Smart is not an android phone, it rather uses Brew Mobile and is java enabled. So if u want whatsApp, go for WhatsApp.jar app anything other than java jvme cannot work with it.

  • You dont condemn before you ask your question. All u need is right information. U'l surprisingly enjoy the phone. As for me, there's nothing I want to do that I can't do with the phone. In reply to your question, go to you will find most app u need there.

  • Adi, It seems u are very happy with this phone as much as I do. People seem to want more than their money can buy. Pls do you know where I can get adobe viewer for this phone model so that I can view pdf files with my phone?

  • Download bolt and use bolt to play youtube.

  • Go to File Browser in your phone menu. You'd see two options Phone storage and SD card, select SD card.

  • how do i delete all the numbers that i save at the phone but not from the SIM?

  • Frnd hving prob wit it, then find me on [email protected] in fb or sent ms in [email protected]

  • I don't have any problem with my phone. I have a perfect little bag and i don't let it fall. battery life is great. photo's i have taken is perfect, music is good and i will never get a nother phone. if you look after your phone your phone will not give any problems. A.L

  • How do u get an youtube player for htc smart. Mention the web site pal..........

  • If your going to get a HTC android device don't get this one, it's flimsy & despite HTC being absolutely amazing, this doesn't reflect the company, they wanted to make a cheap smartphone, so they did. If your budget is this low you'd be better buying a Samsung jet. If your going for a smart phone, go expensive, because if you go cheap, it's not going to be worth it. The hardware in this device is SIMPLY NOT CAPABLE OF RUNNING ANY OS! not worth the trouble.

  • plz dont buy thi fon...very very very very bad..just fuck off....... Go for nokia e63....is the best one i hv ever seen....

  • My samsung champ last longer n better than this phone lol:D Htc is smart cuz only they know how bad their phone is n we come to know after we buy it lol:D

  • The spec's and other comments on this phone made me feel pretty confident with my purchase... and I was for the first few months but now the touchscreen reaction time is at an all time low and the battery is the worst I have ever experienced an overnight charge with keep the phone on for around about 6 hours and thats only sending a few texts and maybe a phonecall. Horrific. More negative features are - not being able to zoom in on photographs which you have taken, internet connention is slow and sometimes doesn't even connect even when in a 3G area, the friend stream is pointless as the phone hardly connects to the internet... i'm moving to a blackberry to get away from this nightmare phone!

  • To be true enuf at first i ws using Lg KP 500, also known as Cookie..i found it better than HTC smart. I have been using ths htc 4m past 6 mnths approx...At an initial stage i found to b the best fone bt later i found out that it has only gud touchscreen better and smoother than ny other fone bt once once u start filling ths fone with contacts and msgs...the fne becums slow n starts hanging. Sumtimes it so happens that if u disconnect a call, the ringtone keeps on going and u have to switch off the fne then. Guys HTC smart is a another name for HELL...So dnt purchase it. The only benefit it has is its economical and gud touch.

  • change a lock screen wallpaper for default

  • I had the same problem with battery life.Now I charge my cell 1 time a week. Try to change a lock screen wallpaper for default.

  • Can what s up.app can be installed

  • You can save to memory card, you just have to find the settings to change it.

  • samsung chat much better......... dude....... buy that phone.........

  • can we install skype or nimbuzz software in this phone?

  • definitely Nokia C5-03.. C5-03 got wifi and 5mp camera +gps .. u get almost nothing when compairing htc smart to nokia C5-03. i wonder what doubt u for the choice?

  • I agree man.. this phone is below par, performance wise. Opening messages is unacceptable.. takes like.. 4 seconds or something, or even more. Highly disappointed in the features.. I had to download third party j2me apps to have the slightest of fun. Only three crap games. Very few features. Not even a notepad. Video is crap (15 fps, super slow, like being on a lagging PC), useless. The ONLY benefit I got from it, was converting HD videos to 320x240 and watching them on it. Those look quite good and don't lag if converted to the right bitrate (298 Kbps video because the poor CPU can't handle it). Sigh.

  • very bad phone...gets stuck most of he times...takes time to open messages..

  • its a very awsum phone....only one thing is mising wifi.....dats it...

  • had many expectations about this set, but very disappointing, poor performance .

  • youre right.

  • Is this is the cheapest phone by HTC?

  • I need help to synchronise my phone with my pc. I have tried and failed the number of times I have tried. Any help put there?

  • delete all trash.

  • i have a problem with the friendstream, i have been receiving errors like " phone storage space getting low" and "download facebook fail"? please help me resolve this one...

  • I got this mobile with a lot of expectations...with my first salary but,its disappointing.....mobile restarts thrice a day, it takes along time to select a character ,downloading can"t be done to memory card......battery life is a big problem .i am reallly disappointed.

  • htc smart is very good read mail and facebook very nice opreting

  • samsung chat is better for chat htc is very good mobile its feature is very good

  • htc smart is way ahead samsung chat dude. the only problem of htc smart is its limited battery life. it lasts only about one day with normal use. other than that htc smart is 10000 times better than samsung chat. cheers

  • i m confuse which phone to buy HTC smart or Nokia C5-03

  • hey i just wanna know one thing,,,, htc smart is better or samsung ch@t 335 is better.... tell me is any body is there or not....

  • the phone is soo good in its battery life and good in sound

  • I got this phone a few months ago, purchased at £100. The first few days, it was ok. Nothing more nothing less. As the weeks went on it started to crash, go super slow, and ahh non stop havick. Generally, this phone is AEFUL. My mum's £10 phone is 10x and over better than this! no exageration. Its so unbelievably slow, its ridiculous. It takes up to TWO MINUTES TO REPLY TO MESSAGE WHEN YOU PRESS THE "REPLY" BUTTON. Thats only the half of it, when your calling someone it will say "phoning..." and then it will crash for about 20 seconds. EVERY time. This isnt just my phone, I've looked at a lot of other reviews about this mobile and there all very similar with identical problems. It may look nice, but its REALLY not worth it. TRUST me!

  • Very bad phone. It starts hanging and restarting anytime. Moreover, the battery life is worst. I am tired to charge the battery all the time. I feel cheated.

  • I bought this mobile with so many expectations as this is my first mobile from HTC.. Now i am totally disappointed with this mobile. There are N number of disadvantages. battery backup is very poor not even to the 10% mentioned in the spec., BREW MP OS doesnot supporting even some most familier applications, getting switched off so many time in a day etc.. etc.., I will never suggest this mobile to anyone.

  • hey i was really keen to buy this phone but looking at the comment im scrd now..do we have the servce center for HTC.

  • it is really good phone in such good price. you should check its settings before using it. battery life is poor, but still ok.

  • i want to buy dis fone my usage s oly textin nd listenin to songs oly ill neva use any other applications can i buy dis mobile.. plz reply me..

  • Does This mobile support Arabic sms & how ? Thx

  • If any body is thinking to buy HTC smart, I suggest u to not purchase this phone. This phone have many disadvantages 1.Automatic off while playing mp4 video. 2. If u use phone browser then phone memory start decreasing. 3. We can't download or receive file in memory card. 4. It's available phone memory is only 70 mb when you buy this phone 5. It can't support txt, doc, pdf files 6. Internet browser is very slow. 7.battery life is poor.

  • To start with good features,camera,touchscreen,music are above average.But as everyone's desire to get more than what u pay for there are few backlogs.While browsing the touchscreen irks u a lot.It doesn't support YouTube,office files and the list goes on.The error message for restart has occurred thrice in a months usage.It's ironic that they call it HTC SMART.To conclude as I have said before about the desire to get more..I think I have expected a lot.It is a very good phone for the price I have paid except that they could have gone that extra mile for few basic things.

  • i'm agree with u all..

  • its gud in luks,features....bt facing the oly prob tat d fon keeps restartin..it startd 4m d very 1st month i purchased t...shows..."OOPS!a systm error occured..restarting" first it got correctd tself..dn d prob continued 2 full days tat i hd to switch t off n take for repair..

  • i have ahd this phone for just over a month, its shuts down while im listening to radio decides to restart (what the H), very short battery life,frezzing while you are busy on it.HASSLE of setting applications or there any........

  • i have ahd this phone for just over a month, its shuts down while im listening to radio decides to restart (what the H), very short battery life,frezzing while you are busy on it.HASSLE of setting applications or there any........

  • not open you tube how to installed application but not suppeted files int he phoine ple stop this models or try any new all progrm software installd

  • Yes,the Smart comes equipped with FM Radio.

  • has anyone had problems syncing with HTC Sync on Windows 7? i've been trying for weeks

  • no wifi hun..........

  • Does HTC Smart FM? As it is not shown in the company website's model description?

  • Any one having problems with the mobile hnging and restarting and memory card support should get theur ssoftware reinstalled from htc service. I used to have the same problems but they stopped after i got the newer version of the software. They also added a Backup which allows you backup all your contacts, sms and settings to be backed up to your memory card.

  • How can I install applications...?

  • its the best phone i've used from htc, concidering it being the only affordable smartphone. Everybody complaining about the phone must check their settings on the phone or hard reset and everything will work fine. Im more than happy with the phone

  • Its a bullshit fone.. cos A.Disadvantages: 1. The batt backup is nil. 2. The OS re-initialises itself.It says "OOPS! system is error.. restarting"...atleast two to thre times a day. 3.the response time for any operation is very long. 4.It can't support 4 GB...leave alone 16 GB..cos d fone just hangs wen u r trying any kinda application.. 5.The speaker fone quality is also poor. . B.Adv: 1. Good looks n sleek design.

  • go to umnet.com and ul get all application...after downloading application copy it in your mobile from pc and jo to java menu n search n install....theres loads of game for this phone

  • this mobile better than apple I4

  • [email protected]

  • Can anyone tell me how to transfer downloads from the downloads folder to any other folder on the fon to allow more space for xtra downloads? i like this fon and indeed errtin about it. Really, this fon isn't for simple users.How do i also download Htc fon softwares. i have been able to access quite a number of them from the HTC website but unable to download 'em. thanks

  • This is my personal opinion, This phone does what its intended to do and does it perfectly well. Audio is clear and good, Videos are good, Good Widgets, GUI looks great, Good presentation and lots more.... on the whole good value for money, for Rs: 6700/= i cannot expect Apple Iphone or Adriod based phones, This is good. Negatives: Brew OS doesn't have many games or Apps available on the web. Video player has few issues, the video seek bar or progress bar doesn't show video more than ~40mins of play, The mobile switches off automatically while watching videos, for reason unknown. Camera may be a issue, coz its a fixed focus rather than a auto focus.

  • thanx frnd for telling please give me ur id i want to know more about it please i want good touchphone in 7k

  • This is a very good phone. So far it has served me well. Everything that I need is featured int his phone. It is the simpliest way to get connected. Every phone has a feature fit to its user. So if some guys tell you not to buy a particular handset its because they are dumb enough to know what they need. And some of em don't have money to buy even a cheap one.

  • good for u... but keep us posted about ur experirnces with it..

  • this particular model is not good... u will get it frm any authorised dealer for min rs 7300/-, the company says it has touch,3g & many features but in reality u will get only a touch & good camera for 7300 bucks...can't use of 3g,,... so if can afford to spend 7300 for luks,touch & camera,,go for it.... even i was vry vry attracted to it.. it luks awesum in reality but den i talked to a person who was using it & after hearing his plight & bad experience i decided not to buy it.... if u have same budget go for nokia c5-00 or sum samsung phone & if u can strech it, den go for htc wildfire or sum other phone...many options available for budget upto 12000/-.... now,d decision is urs//....

  • i m gng 2 buy HTC smart....is it good mobile phone..

  • hi frnds , i wanna buy this phone bcoz of its low cost just tell me please that hows its sound , web experience and in a list that what is this phone lacking . Hopefully i am now looking for ur answers

  • it really is a dumb phone, not worth the money!!! it doesnt have USB modem, it doesn't have a wi-fi, the in built browser doesn't support video streaming, java engine is slow like hell... and u cannot install any external applications... please do not buy it just for the touch screen!!!

  • Using for past 5 months,nothing can be done only tapping the screen............as a whole f..k up mobile phone.

  • Battery back up is too bad!!not worth the money

  • guyz finally got a reliable review of dis phone... this particular model,htc smart f1388 is a very bad phone...plz plz don't buy dis,,,its sheer wastage of money, apart frm touch screen it hasn't got nything.... service centre ppl will not replace ur cell even its a week old..... & special thanx to abhishek for a honest opinion

  • Had this phone from argos had nothing but trouble got a replacement same thing happened again got refund ..steer well clear of this model....

  • My personal experience with HTC smart and other facts. Handset- Good Quality materials plus best build quality compared to nokia and samsung (got 5800 and samsung star/omnia 2 i8000) so far this is has solid feel not plastic type and Htc smart screen is made of glass communication/signal/voice quality - ok clear signal compared to my previous nokia fone voice quality and volume are high and clear got good reception than my other fone in critical low signal places Battery- heavy use 1 and a half day (sms,call,internet,sounds,video playback) moderate use 2days to 3 days (call and sms) light use 4days (sms standby) tips to save battery 1. lower down the brightness to 3 2.turn off keypad vibrate 3. change network to GSM not automatic (under settings mobile network settings) the camera has zoom just go to settings and lower the resolution to 2megapixel or 640x480 to extend the zooming level. downloaded some games from mobile9 and updated the latest ROM. if you want a simple and stylish touch screen fone and has a good quality built buy this. if your looking for feature rich fone buy iphone or nokia n8. i have this fone for 3months still im not experiencing any lags and hangs like others are claiming.

  • just give me your any mail side

  • this phone is so better than ALL OF NOKIA phones , they usualy make phones which they are same , for battery problem you should do this : use your phones charge after you bought them , when it completly used charge it 8 hours for first time , i did it , its so good.

  • last night i bought one and so far there is no problem... it's cheap simple and easy.

Hey firends, if you do not just want to throw this phone away, you could try to update the ROM at HTC offical website. I am glad to have my phone back to normal again.

  • hi... iwant to know that this phn is gud or not

  • hi...... i want this phn is it good or not......if not plz suggest me any of this range

  • Don't buy this worst phone. It hangs everytime. A message comes on the screen "Oops, a system error has occurred. Restarting..." I am repentant to buy this phone. The good looks had trapped me.

  • hello there..after ur successful upgrade, you still need to do some certain compromises, like turning OFF: 1. weather updates 2. automatic time update(you set it to manual) 3. facebook/twitter/etc updates 4. location service update..etc..(less or unimportant stuffs) -You should also adjust your display settings- your brightness should be at level 3 only,or lesser if you can manage -Turn off all vibrations -minimize ringing volume. ***my battery can last up to 5 days on the average,7 days if i dont play with it and just use it for text messaging and some minor calls, but 2-3 days if i use a lot of the apps, esp games and mp3 I have loaded up my sd card with a lot of files apps and games but still workin properly and efficiently..

  • you dont have to pay for anything.. you just have to download the rom upgrade to your computer from , follow the steps and connect your phone to your pc.make sure you have also downloaded the htc sync...it's free.

  • @adamant bro its nt d delivery report wich is a problem..d thing is d beep sound when ussd report is shown..also d phone is slow i hav upgraded the rom bt that doesnt solve d problem

  • you should buy nokia 5230 but its speaker volume is too low.otherwise very good phone comparison to htm smart

  • dont buy this phone.very bad phone

  • Try to get off weather updater and all aplications you don't use.

  • I am also facing the low battery life problem. i already tried upgrading the OS version as suggested by the HTC service centre. But the problem does not seem to budge! may i ask wat is the avg battery back up do u get?? and wat do u suggest me do to ge rid of the problem!!

  • how much did u pay for rom upgrading? thanks..hope to hear frm u soon..

  • its a very bad phone .. i strongly suggest u guys dont buy this phone .. zero funtion ,zero application, baterry life sux, internet speed is very slow..

  • lovin this fone much!

  • i planned to buy htc smart or nokia 5230 i love htc sense and its style...but how abt the brew OS? pls help me which one i can buy?

  • Only java

  • pls help me....why i cant download games?

  • i have read a lot of BAD comments for this phone.. let me tell you, almost all of your experiences(bad & good) i have already encountered... i had a very short battery life, cant read my sd card, slow loading, not a user friendly interface, etc... I TOOK THE RISK OF UPGRADING THE ROM,AS WHAT I HAVE READ FROM AN HTC SMART OWNER, AND ALL THOSE BATTERY AND SD CARD PROBLEMS WERE GONE!!!!!! BELIEVE ME!!!! I almost gave up and already decided to sell this phone, but now i am begginning to LoVe it..now, i can conclude that its only weakness is: IT IS NOT WI-FI READY.. its not a bad phone as long as u know how to use it. before, i thought it really was..but by upgrading the rom using my PC, it solved all my problems.:) I Stongly suggest this phone only to those SMART people, who thinks wifi is not really important,and are computer literate,with a great amount of common sense.

  • The Phone is really sleek. The design itself helps the phone stand out. The screen is a bit of a downer (resistive) since I'm used to a capacitive screen (X6) but is responsive nonetheless. Menu transitions are fast and there's no lag whatsoever. HTC Sense UI is great and the Social Network integration is absolutely fantastic. Web browsing sucks. Even Opera Mini can't save it! Well... that's all cons I could find with it. IMPORTANT: Keep in mind that this is in no way a FULL FLEDGED SMARTPHONE. It is not targeted at those who want the features of a Smartphone but rather those who want a SIMPLE phone which can do most of the basic tasks. So decide carefully before you buy it!

  • why is it there is no WLAN connection sayang looks great and elegant.

  • hi every one does any one know how to add a language of arabic in it i have that mobile i like it but i am on suadi arabia and it does not have arabic language

  • guys.... i really pitty d ones who got this fone.. n really thx fr helping me nt to choose this.. p.s i shud b greatful to yo guys..

  • great htc sense i have used the phone for 8 months im very much delighted but have few suggestions to htc makers for upcoming models in htc , pls improve the battery life which is the significant factor in a phone. sound output can be much louder, missed calls have to be deleted orelse ur phone keeps blinking a signal till u delete them its quite uncomfortable, fm radio needs to be louder as i used an external speaker everytime as the sound was too low. best about the phone is great clarity great touch experience and excellent design of the phone ur torch is amazing, very user friendly options, convinient shortcut slide displays very much satisfied apart from few drawbacks i hope u concentrate on the mantioned putups for ur next phone. overall htc smart is QUITELY BRILLIANT WITH GREAT htc SENSE.

  • dear new htc smart buyers why you are going to purchase this set its very bad handset.,''.,

  • how to view pdf files on my mobile....is it possible

  • de phone dont have any voice recording option. is there anybody... explain about it? how can i get voice recorder with htc smart?

  • @ sunny go to messages settings, then turn off delivery reports..that should solve your problem.. anyway, just bought this phone here in manila.. here's my take about this phone : + execellent build quality (doesnt look cheap at all) + outstanding music quality over the headset + good speaker (though not that loud) + very easy to use + strong flass/flashlight + battery life is actually good (dont know why a lot of people are complaining about it, here's some tips - you have to turn off internet connections coz it constantly updates the stupid weather, change network setting to GSM only, & lessen the screen brightness; your phone should last 2-3 days of average use) - cant play high resolution videos - cant open high resolution photos havent tried the browser coz the screen (low resolution, small size) is not fit for that.. I bought it for P8k ($186.00) which is a bargain, better than my previous Nokia Symbian Phone.

  • The phone beeps every time I receive a delivery report for every sent message, and I am not able to figure out how I can disable this tone.

  • HTC Smart is not a Bad Phone.It's just more complicated than the usual interface u get from other brands. it is not very user friendly, so if u dont know how to operate it ul probably think its a worthless phone. i like the os and the design.it looks very sophisticated and stylish.camera is very good, mp3 is cool. you just nid to modify the settings to make ur batt life longer by dimming ur lights and turning of vibration. display is very very good. looks like a very expensive phone. know the phone first before you judge it.

  • bought HTC SMART few days back. If anyone plan to buy this mobile, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND them NOT to buy this phone. This is a useless moile developed by HTC. Disadvantages are more than its advantages when coming to its features. 1. poor battery life. 2. Very poor internet browsing 3. Cant switch to other audio and video songs when they are stored in a SD card. The next/previous buttons gets disabled when I play the song from SD CARD. 4. The player can only play limited video versions. Infact only two versions(MP4 and 3GP). 5. Phone restarts for no reason. This is most frustrating.. If anyone from HTC see this review comment. pls. take this on a positive note and try to fix the above issues. One thing I want to tell you HTC. This is a FU**KING MOBILE you had ever developed.. Lastly, HTC people are smart enough to fool innocent people and loot their money. And hence the same HTC Smart I think

  • I am also an owner of this HTC smart phone. Although battery is not an issue but the screen has shown the signs of problem within the purchase of one month. Its appearance is getting dim day by day and after charging it gets darker and darker. Now its screen light is also fluctuating. This is all after one month only when I even put my handset with much care. HTC must recall all the faulty handsets.

  • i went to buy this phone but from where i but it as in market they tell it's not avaiable

  • do not buy IT!!!!!

  • Hey Abhi, How do i set location on ma cell. it keeps on searching for the location, but brings up nothing... even the temperature is not shown.. please help.

  • hey.. i downloaded htc sync... now i dont know have to transfer the files which are present in ma phone memory to the my pc. please help... beacaus sync, just sync the contacts.. not everythng

  • if you want to tansfer your pics to to the pc , than its panic. first thing is that your mobile dont have mobile sharing option... so either you have to use bluetooth.. or transfer the pics to the memory card than access through them in your pc.

  • Got some problems with the HTC Smart "freezing" that is I can't turn it off or on. I can't change any settings. It becomes "dead". If I remove the battery and put it back the camera works again. I am also very disturbed with the worst performance of battery. All the good things of this phone is destroyed by this useless battery.

  • how do v sync photos from d fone 2 pc?

  • I have been using this phone for six months now. The first two weeks were learning and I made a lot of mistakes. Getting used to this phone was a pain. Now I am a very satisfied user. It is a friendly phone-- so many features. Really convenient. I am glad I bought it.

  • it's nice................

  • I don't know that if Smart is really a smarter choice.Some comments posted on other sites don't follow common opinion.Some says it is good while others don't agree. I am confused if i should buy this mobile or not.

  • exxxxxxxxxxxxxcellent phone. value for money. music 10/10, camera 9.5/10 (just bcoz of lake or autofocus), voice carity 10/10, display 9/10. worth it.

  • Thanks to all for the phone review. I was about to buy this phone. Thanks for saving my money :)

  • You will regret if you buy this phone. An operating system that nobody has heard of, A battery that has to be charged every three hours, An interface that hangs with every operation HTC is smart. But anybody who buys it will be a fool.

  • wrong*sorry

  • Hello...I have the same phone like this...I just turned it on and I have to choose my short cuts...and I choosed one worng that I have already in my short cuts...how can I delete it?...pls help meee !!! thanks:*:*:*

  • It is not smart ! It is worthless and non-working phone. HTC is a fraud. HTC introduced this handset to rob the hard-earned money of people.

  • how to know that the battery is low, charging and fully charged in htc smart ?

  • If you are an Indian customer then on HTC India site go to Support and select HTC smart model. You will find ROM upgrade option. Upgrade ROM to version 95739 if it is not on that version. The steps for upgrade are there on the site.

  • I purchased this phone just one month in Mumbai. During this short period, I am really tired to give charge to the battery. How I will go to my office and talk to people over phone when the battery goes down after 3 to 4 calls. Is it possible to give charge standing on the road ? Is it possible to charge the battery in the resurant ? This phone is a big headache. I was attracted to buy it seeing its design. The touchscreen works well. But all is in vain due to its battery. Why HTC is cheating Indian customers ?

  • Its absolute hopeless phone.. Apart from battery problems, this phone is extremely slow... Absolutely user unfriendly.... V cumbersum to handle... Its been just 2mths i have bought this fone n i feel like throwing it away in dustbin.... I suggest dont evn think of buying this fone...

  • Ovcourse its not smartphone. Battery is just fine.

  • the battery doesnt last long. ....the battery is rubbish,i have it on charge all the day. ridiculously hard to use, no way of downloading extra stuff - this is NOT a smart phone despite its name. you have to connect to the internet to download picture messages which dependent on contract is VEY expensive, there's no easy menu, the widgets are limited and the box doesn't even have a full instruction manual - you have to download it.

  • This is the most useless phone and also HTC is not bothered about updating the software as if the buyers are to suffer with the model. The Text messaging takes years to load. If i want to reply to a message using my old sony erickson, i would have been able to do it in less than a few seconds and would have already sent the message. If i try to reply using HTC smart, I have to pray to god and also wait for ages for the reply context to appear. It might appear. Or if it delays for too long, then the backlit display will turn off to power saving and again, i have to press the power button and scroll the arrow to unlock and then wait for a minute for the screen to come up and then hope that the �Sorry for inconvenience, phone is re-starting or some crap� message does not appear and then wait for the messages to load which might take a couple of minutes. All this made my friends feel that i`m lazy to reply and eventually led me to losing some really good friends! Besides that, there is no Wi-fi and The bluetooth is USELESS as i can`t transfer files between my laptop and phone. The battery is worst than garbage. No talktime. No standby . All the day I have to charge it. Recently, the USB cable is giving tons of problems� I would blame the phone instead of the poor cable. I have to re-plug the cable tons of times for my laptop to recognize that there is a device� I`m not buying HTC anymore� This is the last and final, unless they can really impress me with a really good software update. Otherwise, GOODBYE HTC!.

  • HTc smart is a bad phone. It will not support YOUtube videos. Zooming option is only for video recording. We cannot change themes more than the phone contains(only 3 themes are in this phone). No Wifi,GPS. No motion sensor. No hand writtings. The battery back up worst. I charge it 3 times in a day. If I do not use it at all,the battery goes down within one hour. Nasty phone. In my opinion it is not at all worth for buying. Waste of money. Gain of anxiety and loss of labor and time. never buy this bullshit.

  • 24/7 u need 2 charge the battery, n i repent buying it...i dont recommend anyone 2 hav it @ all

  • Excellent Model Launched by HTC. Easy to use and a different style i love my HTC Smart....

  • don't dream of buying HTC smart. very bad phone. OS is terribly slow. Not worthy of use. Battery is defective, u have to plug in electricity point all the day. It will be treated as land phone.

  • Never buy it. u have to face a lot of problems.

  • I bought it 20 days ago. It looks awesome, but when it comes to battery backup, it's worst. In these days, people need more batter backup, but even if you dosen't use it, the batter will go down in 1-2 hours. I suggest to everyone that don't buy this phone even if it looks smart; otherwise, u will feel like me by charging it 3 times in a day.

  • i dropped the plan of buying it

  • please any tech-guru tell me from where i got applications for brew mp?

  • plz tell me how the ROM will be upgraded ?

  • To all those who are facing battery backup problems - If you have not upgraded your ROM which is available on htc site you will certainly have this problem. The problem is all the more prominent if you are using SD card. Higher the capacity severe the problem as in if you have 4GB SD card then your phone might hardly last for a day with old ROM version with hardly any usage. My suggestion is please upgrade your ROM and see if the problem still exists or not.

  • Guys, d celfone's workin good... m in love wid d photos i take on my htc fone... n d cell's quite hardy... felt down on d floor frm ma hands many a times, no damage yet...

  • HTC Smart originally purchased on 15/05/10 from Silicon Telepoint, CR Avenue, Kol I started facing problem such as poor battery, SD card not readable at most of times. Mobile replaced on 07/06/10 by Vendor but vendor issued me Invocie with 15/05/10 as date. Again in new replaced mobile follwing problems are faced: a) SD card not readable at most of times. b) Photo taken from camera could not be open. Frrom last 1 month i am not been able to use my mobile. I want my money refunded. Prahlad Dhanani 09903944018

  • Hi PL2, have u ever used this phone ? I can say with comfidence that u have not yet touched the phone, only saw in picture. The looks are not only the criteria. The capability and durability are most important factors. The HTC Smart is the worst phone, inferior to Chinese phone. (i)The battery is poor. U have to charge it all day long to receive calls or to send messages. ((ii) It freezes. U will have to open the back panel to pull out the battery any time of the day. (iii) It has no wi-fi. (iv)Browsing is too much slow. It is not so cheap relating to it's performance. Nokia 5230, 5235, 5530 are the better phones within same price range.

  • hello no one man do buy this phon this is the worsest phone in the world made ny htc

  • A wonderful phone by HTC. I love the design very much.

  • Cant believe someone said "GO FOR"it..Problems are just adding up with my new phone. Phone doesnt read ur memory card..have to switch off and switch it on..Batt back-up is low.Cant find a single app out there on the web that my phone can install and run.. It is disappointing.DONT GO FOR IT...

  • I bought my HTC SMART 2-days ago... the phone appears to be brilliant on the first look... touch response, music, camera etc. But I'm getting very poor battery backup... For example, at 9 a.m I charged it to 100% & when I check it after 2 hours, it was 50% and I had not even used the phone. If it is kept idle, the battery goes exhausted.

  • I am a disgruntled customer. It is my regular duty to charge the battery thrice in a day !!! During conversation over phone, it goes hanged and begins to reboot !!! Imagine, what is going on !!!

  • Can i download msn messenger on this phone?

  • Plz do not buy this phone. It sucks. The battery back up is terrible. You will not be able to do anything with this worst phone.

  • It is said that the talk time is 450 minutes. It is an utter lie. When I talk for 4 minutes, the battery goes exhausted. I have never seen such a bad phone. It hangs frequently. I purchased this phone seven days ago. I am repentant to buy this worthless phone.

  • I charged the phone at 10 p.m. and went to sleep. There were no calls during night. In the next mornig I found the battery fully exhausted. It hangs frequently and I have to take out the battery and again to switch on. The phone begins to restart now and then. I feel annoyed with such a terrible phone.

  • no dont do that

  • I bought this mobile 2 months ago. The first piece I got just wold not allow me to dial out. It would dial and cut off within a second. The dealer immediately changed the piece with a new one. While it looks and feels fine the battery life is terrible. Sometimes in 3 hours time with hardly any usage the battery is low. Also there are no applications for this phone since the operating system is Brew and it's new. SO it's quite a bore. Very hard to go to the number or person you want to call since you take time scrolling and the search function does not help. The camera is great but has no zoom function. No shop in Colombo, Sri Lanka was willing to buy back the phone from me even though it was not even opened and still sealed. On the whole I am very disappointed with HTC Smart... it's not the smartest mobile around.

  • Any1 pls post the download link of its pcsuite.im using it@ Bangladesh bt bought from airtel india.pls help

  • I am fade up with it's battery. Too much worst kind of battery. I suggest not to buy such a disturbing phone.

  • From where do I can get HTC pc suite? How can I do complaint for fake specifications(specially for battery backup) against HTC?

  • @Iqbal.. U can get it from NRP (National Radio Products), Chandni Chowk, Kolkata There's no phone no. mentioned in their bill, odrwise I wud hav forwarded dat 2 u :) The shop is located just one lane ahead of d E-Mall :D

  • In "adexmart" online shopping site, the rate is Rs. 7650. You may prefer C-O-D (cash on delivery).

  • From gsmarena and all other websites, I knew that the talktime is 7.5 hours (2g). But I got worst kind of battery back up. Everyday I have to charge the battery though I do not listen music or do not take pix or connect to internet. I am fully dissatified with the performance of battery. I wrote to HTC. They answered me that the talktime is only 4 hours !!! HTC is cheating to the customers.

Superb Clarity :D > So is d sound quality. Listening 2 songs on my htc fone is no less than listening 2 songs on an apple i-pod. > D touchscreen is superb :) But a few things really disappointed me... > The fone doesnt come wid a memory card. > No phone cover or scratch guard. > Battery backup is not that good.

  • I bought smart bt I can't put memory card songs to music player.how could I do that?pls tell?give me a link of htc pc suite.wat typ of app support brew os,,,,pls help

  • Frequently I got message from Airtel service provider that the cost of last call/message is Rs. 0.50. Thus the balance is being minimized every time, though I did not make any call or did not send any message. Who is the ghost who is using my phone and my balance is being incurred ?

There is nothing smart abt the phone, the only thing i do well is facebook. it should be called HTC Facebook. Pls Help!!!

  • Now I would like someone to help me. I have downloaded flesh player,flesh lite and many other programs from my computer to the phone.Unfortunately all of those when on my phone's SD card read: file type not supported. I m sailing online and the website has a mini client to command yr boat even from computer.I get from mini client all the data necessary except the map/image which I get on my computer when connect to mini client. I need the map to know where are the islands for example. DAMIR

  • SMART to PC and opposite. The reply to several of you who asked. 1. disconnect yr charge cable from the electricity plug and insert the same to appropriate USB entrance on yr computer and the second end to yr phone. 2.buy mini card(cca 5 US $)and insert it in yr phone by opening back cover.In the settings on yr phone go to USB to PC and press mount SD card. 3.on yr computer download " HTC Sync for BrewMP". yr computer will recognize SD card as removable disk E.you download the staff from yr computer to that disk and you will get it to yr phone.Opposite frm yr phone to computer (exml. camera shot)tap on camera shot than go to meni(first under the screen)press more and choose to "copy to album" and it will arrive on yr computer which will ask you what you want to do with that image.You could choose to view it or download it or sand it by mail. DAMIR

  • To All the comments that was made you do not know how to operate a phone i have this phone 6 months i do not have any problems with this phone eg:network,applicatons,and much more

  • is this htc smart is wifi ready??!! i need an answer pls.

  • I can't download from internet files bigger than 10 MB by this phone! Even using opera mini or bolt.

  • This is Really nice phone except little network problem.... Shah... smart around 8000 wildfire 14+ ... what a comparison boss........ This is simply nice phone at Low cost

  • I have bought this mobile few days back. Pros : Touch screen is surprisingly fast. 3.2 MP camera is satisfactory with lot of clarity in photos. Ultimate look since a lot of metal and metal like things are used for making the body. 7 home screens available where u can add quick contacts on 1 screen and frequently used applications on another screen, All the photo and video collections on the 3rd screen etc. Easy moving from 1 screen to other. Music player speaker is good. Cons: Battery backup is low (U have to recharge for every 2 days or so if you are watching a lot of videos.) FM radio comes with very less sound. Video capturing of any moving object(even slow moving) is useless as u won't get any clarity in the video. On screen QWERTY keypad has small buttons and hence difficult to type. Back panel has to opened for inserting micro SD. I don't browse much on mobiles and hence no comments on browsing.

  • You can disable it from data services in settings, both whether and my location.

  • Just go to call history. Use the menu button (small button) which will give you view and delete option. Either you can delete all call history from here or go to view and then you will have all incoming, outgoing, missed call history. You can delete specifics from here using the small menu button.

  • Dont buy the phone. U can get better options at a cheaper price & much more options at a marginally increased price from Nokia & Samsung or even LG

  • Sound is decent. But be aware that u'll find very difficult to find a sweet spot, sometimes sound will be too high for a level and one notch down will be too less. Nothing great about the music. u don get any equalizers either.

  • The phone is real good one...I dont know why every one is complaining about the battery and othe rstuff..I have been using this phoen from past 3 months and have never faced any issues with battery or any other pronlems...This phone is worth buying ya...People thinking about this phone can buy it ne time withot any secon thought..Trust me u gonna love the features and the phone....The best part about this phone is the when you use the earphone to listen to misic its as good as a apple or a sony walkman phone....M in love with ma HTC smart......go get one fr urself.....

  • Hi Mr.......... I am very sorry no other option by removing the memory card and charging kk... but remove one time and charge that is enough for you . atleast u will get one day battery life k... take care..

  • this phone is excellent, can i ask why everyone is moaning about battery life? because i have had no problems... this can get through a day of heavy use no problem, and for the price it's very well built...

  • So is there any solution to battery drain problem apart from not using SD card? Is HTC/Qualcomm already working on this issue? Any updates on this are welcomed. Because if they are then it make sense to keep this phone.

  • well frnds... i am also a smart user.. it is a really decent phone with a battery prob... my phone never get restart as stated above by different users.. u jst need to update ur rom version from htc website and after that it wil work fine. sound quality is very gud and restore and backup feature is also very gud so that u will ever going to lost ur valuable data.. even sms also. u cant get every thig under 7.5 k tab. it is way better than nokia as nokia is quite slow.

  • I have no problems with the battery, but it seems like the OS is getting slower each day. Even though I barely have data on my sd card (it's 256mb btw)...

  • He i work for a telephone company and the desire is much better then the wildfire or the smart

  • realy need opinion frm u guys,which is better between,HTC SMART,DESIRE,WILDFIRE?

  • HTC Smart ... F3188 is the worst phone I have used till date, I am using cellphone since 1997, since then I have used Erricson, Nokia, Sony, Nokia, LG, again Nokia, Samsung,and now HTC since 35 Days now. But I swear by NOKIA now, each time I shifted from Nokia I was dissapointed, and Nokia handsets I could use more than 2 years, but other I shifted very early. This handset I bought as I HTC but am VASTLY dissapointed. I dont reccomend any body to buy this handset, Just go in for any NOKIA and you are assured. I am feeling like selling this handset may be at 7000 also I have purchsed at 9250, any body Interested in Mumbai??

  • This phone is having a worst battery i have ever seen. I mean if you put the SD card (mine is 4GB) and the phone switches off by the end of the day with just normal use. By that i mean no music, no net surfing and only calls. Thats it. But if you remove the card and it works for longer duration. But my point is whats the use of a phone with only 200MB of internal memory who just virtually supports SD card and not in reality. I am fed up with this phone just withing 10 days.

  • can u mail me the link where i can download touch games my mail id [email protected]

  • Hi viewers.. Why your battery is getting down means? i feel that when u switch on your camera . but there no option to switch off.. so the battery getting down.. so go for factory reset then type 1234 and then you can stop your camera to switch off.. then dont use camera.. so you will get nice battery life ok.. while at urgent use the camera.. now u can save your battery life..

  • Hai viewers i have battery problems at first.. one person told in review that remove the memory card and charge ... i done like that.. now am getting battery life more than one day also.. i feel that my mobile battery life better than before... dont keep more messages in your inbox then automatically it will get slow.. you tap messages option, then click menu button then go for deleted messages and again click menu button, then tap the "clear all" option..now u can open your messages as faster than before

  • Guys, i regret a mistake in my previous post. I did not mean that HTC users are dumb... I just simply meant that this phone in not HTC Smart, its HTC Dumb.

  • This is the worst phone i've ever used and i think this will be true with most of the HTC Dumb users... Jus been 2 months since my purchase and i'm fed up with this phone. No Bday reminders, No Speed, Nothing special, and n number of restarts per day are its awesome features. This phone has made me go back to the trusted phone makers like Samsung, Nokia or Sony Ericsson. Never an HTC again in my life. Messages take atleast 2 minutes to load and everytime there is an Incoming message the phone just hangs... Fellas i love gadgets and i'm telling you this is the worst phone u could ever buy.

  • the label state made in taiwan, does that mean it's still made in china?

  • hey, I frequently use sound recorder in my phone to compose music. and I'm thinking of buying HTC Smart. does it have sound recorder? I heard it doesn't.

  • u can not install outlook express bcause this phone's "OS" is brew, so u can't. u can install office like excel, word, ppt through google search or any search engine......

  • Dear Anonymous, You mean took out the SD card and charge the battery?

  • hi how is htc? can we go for it.. battery life? how abt applications can it read pdf..? is it preferable

  • if your having battery life problems with your htc smart,then remove the sd/memory card,my phone was being charged on a daily basis,took out the card,now i charge it once a week.

  • any body tell me, how much sms memory in this phone.

  • It is not Android. It is a budget handset. You cannot expect high end features like smooth playback of any video type and massive app support on a budget. Either save for a high end handset or expect nothing more than a nice looking touch screen phone that has software issues. Android, Symbian and iOS are the better OSes right now so bugs are ironed out quicker on them.

  • guys, will i be able to install 'UpToDate' medical search engine in this? so far its supported only on windows mobile. Any ideas?

  • Guy, i bought this phone more then a month ago. I bought as it is "HTC". The thing is that it is wirst phone i have ever had in my life. Within 2 weeks, its has been gone to service center twice. Well, some of its worst features are as follows - 1. You can't do any thing while video streaming, just can expand the screen. 2. No media equalizer in music player. 3. hangs every time i operates it. 4. A very poor browser, cannot support multipl streams. 5. No type and find track system, you have to scroll down the whole list of tracks to play a selected one. 6. Software corruption is daily like problem. My phone has gone to service center twice due to this problem only. There are many more problem which i am not able to memorize because my phone is still at service center from last 2 days. Bottom Line - If you have lots of waste money and want to experience worst cell phone, then go for this phone.

  • hey guys ibought this phone it was extremly good,and i dont face any problem..maybe whos people buying this kund of phone maybe they dont know how to use it!!!!!

  • do not buy this phone because,i purchased 3weeks aga and now i want to sell this phone due to poor battery life,i complained twice and i got new battery also.but no use.

  • hi guyz bought dis fone few days back and i would like 2 install microsoft office and outlook express .... how do i go ahead and do that ... plz help me!!

  • I advise to every.. plz plz never buy this phone, it is completely waste of money. I purchase 3 weeks before and experienced so many issue even after ROM update available from HTC commercial site. 1. sometime it hang and restarting auto. I noticed this at charging time, when dealing with contacts, watching video songs. 2. No proper management of call history 3. No equalizer in music player 4. Low Battery issue 5. Sometime phone not ringing, not buzz, no sound in play music even with full phone volume, meida volume and alarm volume. you have to restart phone. I will never purchase any HTC phone again.

  • thank u frnds.. i was abt to buy dis HTC smart piece.. ur comments helped me alot..

  • can anybody tell me if i will be able to change the OS to android 2.1 in HTC smart. I would also like to know how smooth the system will work once after installing android. thank you

  • No dear This camera of this mobile is good. But other facilities are dam bad. So from my point of view never go for it.

  • I am a frustrated customer of HTC Smart. I brought Smart 2-3 months back. This is a very bad phone, I never thought of HTC to launch such a bad phone. I experience some points which are missing in this phone are � Calendar does not support recurring events, no method to store birthday kind of events � If I set picture in a contact, no method to remove only change of image is possible � Phone browser does not support many formats so this facility is a waste. � Java applications makes phone slow and drain battery so again waste. � Many times while surfing over internet browser will give unreported exception and mobile will restart. � Battery of mobile is week compare to other HTC handsets. � No customized ringtone for contacts. � Even more no app store only java midlet applications are available which makes handset slower � Except user interface everything in this handset is waste of money I made. I brought the phone because of the tag mark of HTC. I lost my faith on HTC. Friend never ever think to bye this phone.

  • ok had the htc smartphone 2 for bout a week and it does wot i want a phone to do it makes calls and sends texts what else you want a phone to do for this price touch screen is actually quite responsive to touch ok messages take nearly all of 2 secs to get into bout same time as it takes to press a button to go into ur inbox on any other phone lol as for internet surfing i thought ot was bloody quick on it

  • how can i transfer files from HTC smart to my PC? i do not want to use bluetooth, and my PC did not detect the disk drive ( i do not have SD card yet, it is saved to phone memory for now), even after downloading htc brew sync and sycing it. please help! i need to drag and drop into my PC...

  • well its a cut down desire. so it wont be quick not at 300mhz. think about at. good budget phone for p.a.y.g other than its naff.

  • So you dont suggest anyone for buying this phone.........after all HTC took the courage to understand the Indian market for launching such a low price model.....

  • Have had this phone for a moth now and it sucks. Sorry HTC, you failed this time. Not very smart for a supposed smartphone. Multiple apps open at once? Sure! Except it can't. Isn't that one of the premises for it to qualify as a smartphone? The touch is somewhat slow as is the loading of messages. No downloadable app support either. Maybe should they should have waited for the Brew OS to have an app store or something. I'd rather suggest the Samsung star or Nokia 5530/5230. Similar prices, better function. Will be moving to the iPhone ASAP!!

  • how is camera of this phone as compared 2 nokia 5233 coz i dont trust htc when it comes 2 camera quality plzz tell me abt it frnds... thank.....

  • not that bad of a phone. i only had it for a day so far and its been okay. all i found that was a little annoying was loading of the messages took awhile...a little sluggish there... besides that the touchscreen is pretty good and responsive. just lagging when using friends stream too. listening to music is pretty good. the earphones are respectable, the ones that come with it. the internet browser seemed at little mediocre. doenst really have a video player which is kinda stupid. but looking through photos is good. pretty good phone. think it is better than nokia 5233

  • worst mobile

  • Hi am once again telling .... don't get this mobile... all facilities are good... but battery sucks....... very worst... go for another mobile... i got the replacement as a new mobile... the second mobile is totally waste......please viewers all will tell good mobile... but dont go for it....

Plz tell does this smart phone hang ?? I have used K550i of sony ericson and by me that was the best phone ever (irrespective of any other companies's mobile set) for phones under Rs 8000 category, is this phone is better than that or equal to that phone

  • how do u get it at such low price i bought it for 9960 in delhi

  • its by a good make, it has good features and it looks nice. the way it works lets it down.

  • hi bro i got this phone for 7750 from mumbai...the phone is really good for the money but u need to forget about d applications.u can install very few java apps 240x320...it has a nice camera with excellent led flash light...nice sound quality with fm radio...touch screen response is good...7 home screen...nice weather application and 9 favorite cotacts with their photos...so overall a nice decent phone better than nokia phones which u mentioned.

  • friends i am getting this phone for rs 8000,so should i opt for this phone,or should i go wid nokia 3233,5230 or 5235.an another point of concern is i have been using HTC phone & it sucks interms of camera the guys using thig plz let me know abt the clearity of the camera.and the above mention phns r 16m resolution scrn.& they have an better procesor than htc smart........ rply plzzz..........

  • There is no auto rotate function. you set it manually in a menu option when you press the function/settings key just below the HTC logo....

  • Hi.. guys as a mobile dealer I have never used phones more than 15000 price range but within that range i have exprimented many brands including so called NOKIA,SAMSUNG and LG. Don't forget to include BLACKBERRY. but what I found this HTC-Smart is simply gorgeous.Those who don't bother Wi-Fi and Video call can't find a better phone than this.So if you don't use the above two facilities you should not waste your money on anyother phone because you can't find a beteer phone at all in this price

  • does htc smart has Accelerometer sensor for UI auto-rotate...? pls explain

  • where is the auto UI rotate function? can anyone explain this.

  • good

  • really? gosh thanks. 9900. reasonable price.. goos good. thakns very much

  • I had Sony Ericsson k800i, and unfortunately i broke it, and had to buy something, and bought this one (was much cheaper then k800i). After k800i, i can say that this one is a complete disappointment! Facebook focused, unfrendly phone, with only a wallpaper change in regards of customisation. As soon as i get money for k800 im gonna run this one over with a steam-roller. They focused on facebook and touching and forgot about user friendly, and ease of use..

  • I brought this phone from irla market fine connection n its cost me 9000

  • to access your sd memory/storage card press your arrow / back button , "the big shiny button" then press file explorer , there you should find your internal memory and storage card.. hope that helped.

  • Wow my friend bought this phone yesterday and were really pissed off!!!!! Brew mobile lives to its name its black coffee in the trash! First when you insert a memory card the whole loading process takes out the whole battery charge! Another thing its qwerty keyboard is for the 7 dwarvs finger, i'm mostly dissatisfied with the over all performance i thought that nokia china phones are the worst but this one is should have a new word in the dictionary for a very bad cel phone!

  • HTC Smart is 10 times better than any touchscreen phone below 10,000rs. it is very effective than CORBY or MONTE.. Guys go for it....

  • what's brew mobile OS? there are too many OS like: iOS, Symbian OS, WindowMobile OS, Android OS, etc...

  • I have been using HTC smart for past 1 week.I bought the phone to view pdf files so that i can read my books in it, but i havent been able to do so.Could any body suggest me what to do ?

  • I work in a phone shop and i was extremely happy to see that HTC had not forgotten the 'little people'. The high end high spec phones are all well and good for alot of people in this world, but there was a serious hole in the market which was screaming out for a affordable not crazy techy touchsceen phone. I've spent the last few days playing with and messing around with the in store model of the phone and i cnt fault it really. The quality of the software offered by HTC does not differ so greatly from the Tatoo or Hero but thankfully is nearly half the cost. Gold Star to the HTC guys for this one.

  • I had purchased this handset a month ago and ever since has been lying at the service centre bcos of Network failure and Battery malfunction. I got a replacement and I was happy . The company people said that there was a problem with the earlier handset- I had already got the software update done for it atleast 3 times . But again the new handset also had the same problems .As advised by the service centre - I got my SIM changed but to no avail. So Beware . It is a cheap Smartphone with features that would make u feel that u should instead have purchased some other phone- each time u handle it. The FM sound is so low - u have to b in a soundproof room to hear it well .

  • i am going to buy a phone. which is better?why? htc smart,nokia c6 or nokia n96

  • Hi guys, erm i got a 8GB microSDcard, but the music player can only play music frm its Phone Memory. However, e phone memory can only support 15 or so songs. How do i effectively use the SDcard memory so that i can have many songs on my music player? Is there any way to read the songs in the memory card instead for music playing? I'm nt really gd at these stuff T_T thanks

  • htc smart it is a much better phone believe me!!!

  • i hv never used a touch phn....wud u all suggest this hv once used the se p1...is the os easy to use...i am getting this with airtel for 9.5k.Really liked the looks of this phn.Also does it support push email kindly let me know thnxs

  • Overall the phone is very good. It lacks GPS and wi-fi. I have been usingg it for couple of days. Voice quality is excellent in this mobile.

  • Baught yesterday at cost 9900/- from gurgaon. Its good phone.....

  • I have that phone and he is brilliant. If you want buy it, thrust me that phone i the best.

  • samsung corby pro,nokia 5535,

  • UI is nice!

  • It rocks!!! Too good phone at a cheaper price. It's perofmance is too good

  • Is java the download app??

  • It is true that for now there are almost none apps for Brew, but the same thing was with android for the first few months... Just wait, they will come :) P.S. Download Brew SDK and start writing apps yourself :)))

  • battery very good, 3 day, signal 5 on 5, data transfer 4 on 5,sound little low for my sense 4 on 5,radio ekstra, is easy for use good look, true HTC only 1 downpoint is the brew OS lack of app is so $%&%&/%&(%&$.

  • Which one should i buy HTC Smart or Nokia 5235?? Tell me guys wich one is better???

  • Please let me know how is the battery back up of this phone also does it hang or not...really liked the look of this phone plus it has a very simple os which is easy to use.Thanks.

  • hey this pone roxs man if u wer using samsung sony nokia or samsung this phone is great . u will hav difrent os and totally new type of pone if u go to samsung it sucks to d core .

  • HTC smart is good set in terms of user interface but when it comes to applications there are not much options, all you can do is install Java applications which you can even install in basic Nokia Phones. Other than the applications issue HTC Smart is a worth of money. In am same price you can find Samsumg monte with additional features like Wifi & GPS but HTC is HTC. I hope in coming few weeks we will be able to see some good applications for brew OS on which HTC smart runs, like flash player, office document viewer..........

  • It does not have qwerty physical keyboard, but only virtual. It has normal numpad in portrait mode, or you can switch it to side and use landscape qwerty virtual keyboard. It is not as fast as physical keyboard but it does the job for 4 (of 5)

  • Could any one let me know if this phone supports push email service and also does it hv a qwerty keypad...or does it hv the regular keypad..getting a good rate with airtel for the same...Thanks in advance

  • It's a rubbish phone. With less money you can a S5230 Star or a 5230...HTC you failed!

  • Had this for a few weeks now, £100 on o2 pay as you go in the UK, now it's down to £90. Great for the price, quite slow at times but that's the case with most phones in this price range. User interface is probably the best I've used on a phone, will be sticking with HTC in the future from this experience.

  • not a great phone at this price its basically just a slight upgrade over the feature phone u can get bada os samsung phones which are better at this price

  • go get the IPHONE pal!

  • I like it very much it is very useful. I strongly recommend all of u to use it.

  • i hv jst buyed it.........and m finding it awesome.............but ya battery backup is poor nd even functioning is lii bit complicated................

  • battery backup is poor.phone heatup during charging

  • 300mhz processor!!! HTC are you kidding me?!!

  • Just had a play around with the phone, seems good to start with, camera is good quality for its pixels and touch reponsive is good. does concern me that you cant view streming on it, not a function i need but for the extra affort or cost it would be worth it to make it stand out above the rest in the price range. (ireland market)

  • i am supplying htc etc. but htc is uncomparable to other brands. quality. but

  • damn it...wtf i just got it and it cant stream...i installed java on it and it work too slow.. it cant be possible at all? even with an app? :(

  • HTC can't stream media from youtube.

  • Can anzone tell me if this model supports streaming i got the phone a couple of dazs ago but i cant stream zoutube on it? Can anyone help, thx

  • hey guys, I have been using this phone for i guess a week now i got to admit that all the rumors stating that the phone it useless because it has brew os in it are completely fake.The user experience is very good and trust me guys i have used phones of all the leading manufactures.The only one downpoint is the brew being a new os dosent have many apps to its name but i have heard that many apps are due to be launched for the os in a couple of months.And i almost forgot the one thing the phone needs is a improvement in its cameras software as it dosent host any basic or advance tools for both photos and videos

  • Samsung Jet

  • hello Friends, Have been using this phone for the last 3 days. Was using a Nokia E71 prior to this for 8 months and god knows the number of times i have cursed the crap that Nokia makes in the name of phones now. They just make a new model and get it into the market while we customers are the guinea pigs on whom the experiments are done. Gradually thru trial and error the software is updated. No wonder Nokia is losing its market share. My phone used to hang frequently, plus so many complaints from my friends, clients that my phone is switched off. Another problem I faced regularly was when i answered a call and it never connected (i mean the phone just got hung). Getting all fed up i just wanted a phone with only 3 things..good call quality, network signal pickup, battery life. I dont want anything else.I mean isnt that what a phone is supposed to do first and foremost?? The HTC Smart is my first experienece with a touch phone, plus the HTC brand. And its been satisfying for the 3 days that i hv been using it. Took a couple of times getting used to it, but i kinda like it and I think it will grow on me. The battery life seems nice, i charged it fully yesterday morning and after ummmmmm 30 hours it still has 50 percent battery left. I get maybe 15-20 calls per day averaging 2 minutes each. So i guess the battery is decent enough. I just hope it doesnt ditch me like the bloody Nokia !!! Regards to all!!

  • my phone budget is between 12k to 14k which touch screen phone should i buy

  • touch feel awesom

  • i bought it today...after initial rush, i must say i am not much enthused. better os would have helped. also no wifi, no front cam, fixed focus cam

  • It is too good and powerful smart phone on BREW OS. Touch sensitivity is too good,and features like photos are very nice.

  • should one buy this or samsung / nokia

  • i am using this cell since last few dayz...it is like a basic phone with everything okay....i wud suggest to buy tattoo as it comes with android and u can install java app only in smart...for more concerned ppl wait for htc wildfire..it may launch in july...else htc phones are best smartphones in the world so if u have a resent htc model think dat it is the most advanced tech u can buy at time...

  • I second you. I too hate windows mobile os. It's horrible.

  • answer to anti htc.hey i thhink or sure you are a stupid .im anti nokia .se.samsung im so sorry for you.htc is the best of the best.and finally shut up

  • Any phone got to do with HTC or Windows OS = D I S A S T E R. I hate Windows OS phone because of it's unstable. I swear I will never buy and will continue to discourage people from buying HTC because of it's flaw design. My warranty was void just because I was told my phone got contact with water and that the sticker color changes to pink (indicate that water been in contact) Can you imagine that you can actually see the sticker inside the housing by removing the battery!! OF Coz moisture seep in!!

  • For all reviews I have been reading about HTC smart is that reception of signal is excellent, sound is clear, and this is what is every one of us expect when using mobile phone. All other is about what any of us want from mobile phone we use. Surfing internet? Thanks, but on go I use my netbook, lightweight and much comfortable then loosing eyes on 3� screen. Same for Wi-Fi, in office I already have desktop, as well at home, 22�. For pictures here is slim pocket digital cam with 3x optical � so cam in phone is for.... I use it just to see how it's look like... Radio, music player � ok, for some time waiting something somewhere to kill the time. I'm sure that here around we can find something better for this price regarding mobile phone adds and apps, but HTC offer HTC Sense for all others. And for me this lovely weather screens, not a reason for buying mobile phone but HTC knows what I love. Just nice looking cheap simple phone for simple people like me with ordinary functions on 2,8� screen, without tendency to �skip away� when operating with one hand.

  • I have this phone (for a couple of days now) and there is no Acceleromter feature. However when you are on the internet or messaging if you press the little hardware key underneath and to the left of the HTC logo, you are presented with an option to change from portait to landscape. The setting remains until you change it next time.

  • Is it possible to change OS in this phone?

  • How do you mean pil. I would like to know more abou

  • basic phone.

  • Hi all,just got this phone for my 12yrs old daughter who have choose just for the colours,touchscreen,basically knows nothing instead of Nokia 5800 Xpress which I recommended.The reason,not to have the same phone with the brother.The Brew Os is a pilot platform that HTC buy from Qualcomm just to see how is the process works and stability.For those phone geek,this is not for you.Htc Hd2 is the best phone ever which supported by xda developer,to give such a huge applications to the phone.It beats the IPHONE! .Im glad to have one for myself.Whenever I see people using the IPHONE,I feel sorry for them as they just follow others blindly and not really understand,as HTC says '"The Phone gets you"

  • Does the snap have a keypad? How is the apps updates for this phone? Does it have office and hows the os software

  • over all very good phone in this market rate.camera is very class.voice clarity also very well.It is very handy phone and nice touch with every button.I am very satisfied with this phone.

  • yup Sumanth... am too findin the same prob... i hav to restart when i move somethin to my memory card... the bluetooth accepts only 2 songs at a time.. and for 3rd it ask the pin.. crap... gettin pissed off evryday... hope they upgrade the OS soon...

  • Cant believe someone said "GO FOR"it..Problems are just adding up with my new phone. Phone doesnt read ur memory card..have to switch off and switch it on..Batt back-up is low.Cant find a single app out there on the web that my phone can install and run.. It is disappointing.DONT GO FOR IT...

  • u r absolutely rt.... Look for a os while buying phones.... For geeks os is important... Totally i have used some htc phones running wm os it totally rocks....

  • i brought this mobile... a very good mobile considering the cost... camera is not good at night.. headset is good.. very good resolution... nice mobile... a new experience for me... different from nokia and sony... a mobile for a change too... GO FOR IT..

  • Good screen resolution. Light weight, good design, good sound clarity, camera ok. Does`nt play MP4 format, Dont have apps available for download, cant figure out where to adjust equalizer, no widgets option. Overall thumbs down for this phone.

  • i got this phone this week, hv been using a nokia all this while and facing difficulty getting used to smart, so can sum1 help

  • The only turn off with this device would be wifi , which is easily present on most samsung and lg devices with 8k range . But again after using HTC gene for 2 yrs , I love HTC and windows mobile . Brew brings with itself a much faster interface hopefully , so that should be the catch of the device

  • i bought this phone just 3 days back nd i found this phone very fast nd user friendly. i hv been using nokia 5800 nd this phone is quite faster nd UI is very good. well Thanx htc for giving such a good phone at a very attractive price!

  • can i do online trading with any one of htc mobile, pls inform me.

  • just stupid phone ? missing android OS? similar and more specification brand mobile u can find with less price !!! 10 k is expensive compare to other brands ????????? average rating of handset is good..

  • just stupid phone ? similar and more specification brand mobile u can find with less price !!! 10 k is expensive compare to other brands

  • I have a htc tp and htc p3400i. i would go for htc smart also. because HTC addicts know how worth is every HTC mobile. costing lesser than 10k and enough specifications I think HTC SMART makes a smart purchase. only HTC addicts know what HTC mobiles mean.

  • It seems that this is just a basic tuchscreen phone with pre-installed useful applications. But there are hardly any app that are available that can be installed in this phone (BREW OS)

  • not that good what u get with window os

  • simple and good to use

  • People DONT get decieted by the Brand's name. Unlike the other HTC devices which run on Android or Win-Mo this is BREW, there's not much applications available for this OS and the user experience is not in the good opinion. Just don't go by its price and brand, look for the OS which is the major downside of this phone. I will seldom recommend this phone to anyone.

  • it's not windows based. it's operated by Brew MP which is a custom made OS.

  • Please let me know the sound quality through the speakers - Is it loud? How is the quality in the earphones?

  • I am loooking forward to buy the smart but didn't gt at at nashik,maharashtra.But it not confirmed is it same windows based or not not yet clear.

  • where can we find the applications for this phone? is there a built-in app store in this phone?

  • Htc smart is nice phone but which should buy it. I cant choose whether nokia 5530 or htc touch 2 or the htc smart phone. Which should i buy it . Since the smart phone was not launch in Mumbai . So i need so help ..

  • M a Big hTC fan, and why not,, they have every reasone to feel pride.... belive me the SMART is also the promising phone by hTC... look at the Configration, its mind bloing...

  • what will happen during sweating?

  • its good looking phones. its touch screen is better than nokia 5800 and sony ericsson Aino.

  • The primary reason for that is capa. screens have problems with sweating :).

  • the screen is resistive type. advance technology of capacitive screen are now days lower rate, why htc used resistive screen?

  • Htc get smarter this phone like touch2/3g but its price so good if u used htc u will addicted nokia can lower price but not speed nokia hangs often touchscreen htc best nokia5230 similar one but poor speed htc smart only one odd BREW platform otherwise so good

  • does this phone have flash for camera and how effective is it?

  • Any review links for this ?

  • Nokia 5230 is better. retails around Rs.8K is VFM. go for it

  • I like this phone. It holds good promise for indian markets. It hits the sub 10k range perfectly. It has a good screen. love the screen actually. u cant expect a 4 inch amoled for 9k comon...and looks cute...m sure indians will love it...HTC...3G plsss...don make the same mistake u did before...

  • I like this phone. It holds good promise for indian markets. It hits the < 10k range perfectly. It has a good screen.

  • Behenchod.. Has anyone even used BREW OS?

  • inferior product will launch in india first bcoz its indian govt is permit to these companies

  • The only thing that can make someone go for this phone is the battery life in 3G... and that's that's that.

  • cheap 300mhz processor...!! u never know...if it will really have 3g in it..last time they ditched indians...!! choothya htc

  • Would really like to see the review of this phone i think its worth buying if it has the HTC sense UI and since the specs are just a little better than the samsung star im hoping the price will be competetive with the star in its price range

  • 9900 with airtel connection in Mumbai

  • Chinese site has got hold of the HTC HD3 specifications from some HTC employees. If you thought Qualcomm�s 1 Ghz Snapdragon CPU is the biggest thing for the year 2010, think again?! HTC HD3 will be powered by the Qualcomm�s 1.5Ghz Snapdragon processor. HTC HD3 Specifications Other HTC HD3 specs that have been leaked includes: Display: 4.5-inch display (1280 x 800 resolution) Processor: Qualcomm�s 1.5Ghz Snapdragon Camera: 8 MP camera with Xenon flash, front camera Video: HD video recording (720p), 1080p video ready Memory: 1GB RAM, 1GB ROM Other: HDMI, USB 2.0, 3.5 mm audio jack Capacity: 16GB internal memory (microSD card support up to 32GB) Connectivity: 4G support, WiMAX, Bluetooth 2.1, WiFi Battery: 1800 mAH OS: Windows Mobile 7 Considering the rapid improvement in the hardware specs that HTC is using in its devices, the HTC HD3 specs mentioned above look highly possible by the release date given. HTC HD3 Release Date The release date that has been included with the leaked specifications sheet of HTC HD3 is for November 2010.

  • I have seen and used a sample version. Very handy, easy to use. Not for the gadget freak, who have had a couple of ouch phones, but must say, it´s a perfect "My first touch phone", due to it´s user friendly touch interface.

  • Not So good as Samsung star 3G. 3G has all latest softwares. HTC does not have..they have installed old versions and reduced the cost.... Good Joke.. with customers...

  • WI-FI missing

  • nice phone.....has fm radio, 3.2 mp camera, intiutive user interface, long battery life,great look, low price......definitely ....gonna rock india

  • no WLAN............why?

  • Htc smart prices in india is rs.10,000

  • I don't get what all of you are crying. For the price you'd for this phone, the specs are great, and it's a good thing that HTC tries to break out on the low-end market. I live in Finland, and the phones here are quite expensive (at least considering my budget). Comparing HTC Smart to other phones it'll compete against, it beats (almost) them all. Samsung Corby doesn't have even3G. They don't even sell S5320 Wi-Fi here. All other phones of this price category miss either 3G or QWERTY-keyboard, which are the two biggest things I'd want from a phone of this price category. Yeah, these new Nokia's might be better overall, but I want to try something new, and in addition i haven't enjoyed Nokia's low-end touchscreen phones. If this will get good reviews, this is gonna be my no1 choice for my next phone.

  • Htc Smart videoreview HD MWC 2010

  • 300 MHz + 240 x 320 resolution... hmm... no thanks i rather take touch Diamond which is almost 2 years old and still better.

  • corby,cookie or this??

  • This is a phone to challenge Samsung (corby and others)for this market-the cheap pda phone. Its a open source pda (but no so open).

  • wasn`t brew os what benq-siemens were using? this is a low end phone to grab a market not touched by other htc mobiles,ie aimed at non hi-tec people.

  • i think thats a chip model

  • seems like a nice phone, too bad the price isn't competitive in comparison to the lg cookie, samsung corby/star. HTC Smart will cost �169 back here while the star wifi goes at �149. I am however looking forward to testing the new OS but I'll stick to my Samsung Jet just a bit longer.

  • That about radio? - is it on board or not?

  • lol huh 300 mhz processor..? my watch is more powerful than that

  • lol, it is not a windows phone..

  • The processor is too low?! Do you even know anything about brew mobile? 300 MHz is more than enough to use this OS. A faster processor would mean lower baterry life. I like it, it seems very efficient.

  • Hi I just saw this phone now on this site and I think that it is ok just dissapointed that it does Not have wifi which I am a fan off

  • i dont think the phone is worth ...even if it priced in comparision with corby ..... no wifi ..no 3G .... and a processor of 300 Mhgz for a windows phone .... even a normal phone supports a better processor nowdays ...

  • Buy on: www,eOnMercato,com

  • fm radio in the picture

  • I completely disagree with previous comments. If priced compitatively to Samsung Star & Cookie, for sure, this is gonna be a big hit in indian market. After all this is a category where Wifi/GPS are not expected. However missing radio option is a concern or is this an another glitch in specifications by gsmarea ;-)

  • yea i agree with you. they^re marketed at idiots who think this phone is "cute"

  • no radio, no gps, no wifi.... gonna flop in india 4 sure

  • awwwww......... this fone loook so cute^^

  • Come on guys :) this phone is a real cutie! You damn nerds (me2) have already what we want from htc... go for hd2 :) If you think this phone is so crap, it's because it wasnt even designed or meant for us =)

  • if only it got wifi.. would be nice

  • buy smart be stupid

  • can anybody tell us what is the new os brew ?? i am a good viewer for mobile phones and smartphones world i hear about the new os by samsung bada but its the first time i hear about this os

  • hay ppl....i guess they called it smart cuz its not a windows mobile anymore....they r using anew OS called Brew Mobile.......idk...i guess it ll b agood idea to find anew OS 4 HTC mobiles

  • Poor one

  • No Wi-Fi ..? thats dumb.

  • they forget to add "budget" before the "smart" word.

  • so what.... another "smart-dumbphone". another "low-low-end". another, which'll be more expensive, than i900 omnias & touch diamonds. pathetic ;/

  • in the pictures i read fm radio i am not understand

  • It's quite obvious, that it's not a high end device, so why complain about the features? If it's less than 200� I'd conside buying it.

  • Yeah this is the same class as one iphone, so the iphone funn-girls have found their copy cat to compare with lol.

  • Fm radio? Camera with flash?! pretty low price tag? (I hope!) That's fantastic from HTC!

  • not so bad for cause this isnt hight end smart phone but 300mhz cpu is too baaad and another repetitive design from htc !!??

  • This phone support radio fm , in the diagnostic Gsm write no.

  • well looks like HTC, have made a budget smart phone. specs wise its not that smart. but if its only £100 then that will be the clincher. anything over that it will be a expensive waste. shame HTC i suppose you have to make simple phones as well as awesome real smart phones.

  • i don't get it. beside the new OS what so smart about this phone??? it's lack a lot of features WiFi for start????

  • Totally not nice for a low end HTC. Compare it to Nokia 5530 as it has WiFi and microUSB, unlike HTC Smart with only 3G and miniUSB.

  • What is this? How much will be 1kg of this phone? HTC what are you doing? I think this is a mistake. It's not real... This is not HTC is LTC!!!

  • first HTC dumbphone :D

  • i wasnt expecting such bad specs from htc. a really big disappointment on this 1 and right after the nexus, this is what they come up with? at least it will probably b a cheap 1 for those unwilling to spend lots of money on a phone.

  • there's no wi-fi in this mobile

  • third

  • second

  • first
