The new HTC Desire that goes on sale in Telstra shops next month, comes with the Google Android 2.1 operating system and the brilliantly fast 1.0 GHz Qualcomm processor. It also has a built in FM radio, automatically lowers the ringer volume when picked up, and has a 480 X 800 WVGA AMOLED screen.
The pub where I decided to bench test the HTC Desire was located in the middle of Mosman in Sydney. It attracts some interesting sorts - millionaires, footballers, stock brokers, lawyers, retirees, and even labourers working on local building sites.
Every person who saw the phone commented on the high quality of the new AMOLED screen with several people comparing their iPhones with the new Desire. They claimed that the high-resolution AMOLED screen looked great and was ideal for viewing video's and still pictures.
