    Featuring a superb, Apple-esque design, HTC's latest Android smartphone — the HTC Legend — is one of the sexiest looking mobile phones we've ever reviewed. The successor to the , the HTC Legend is not just about looks: it offers improved software and superior performance. Like its predecessor, the HTC Legend smartphone has a very distinctive design. This time it's thanks to the aluminium, unibody casing with a brushed finish. Read more

    While the Android platform does not have the prowess of the Apple's app store (160,000 apps and counting), this is a much younger platform that has a lot of potential because of the advantages of the open source operating system and its tight integration with Google related services and apps. It's no surprise why several phone vendors are decking their line-up with an Android based device these days. Read more

    I bought this phone just today, and I know it might be too close to say anything about the phone, first impressions are great! Everyone who is bagging this phone is being very negative. I've found that this phone is easy to personalise in any way you want to; so far the battery life is reasonable as I've only charged it when I actually took the phone home. Nothing bad I can say, I would definitely recommend this phone! Read more
