Good: Easy to use phone if you only want it for phone calls and text messages

Bad: Memory..very bad

Comment: Got this phone as a Birthday present and to be honest very unhappy with it. Have only downloaded 4 apps and thats it, internal memory used up even though i have also got an sd card for it. Only buy this phone if you dont want to download apps.

Good: PRICE,Gprs,Wifi and generaly fast

Bad: Small screen,average camera and low internal memory( 90 megs)

Comment: Considers its price (around 120 euros) there is not a better phone in the world.
If you know basic programing you cant overclock its processor from 600 mhz up to 1400 mhz!
Cheers!

Good: Battery Life for a android cell, wifi, gps, htc sense, smart dial, call clarity, ultra portable, htc hub, htc like apps etc

Bad: low internal memory, camera quality, no gorila glass etc

Comment: Over all its a budget phone and best value for money in this segment, because of HTC and far better than Samsung's cheap cells.

Good: Its size,its looks,its functions and its camera

Bad: Battery life

Comment: The explorer is really great its slick UI is really fun and easy to use.Unlike the review my phones camera was better than my moms iphone.It's fully custamisable and how it merges contacts with facebook is great.The only problems I've had are the battery life and lags.I use the explorer right before Iy go to school for around 45 mins (listening to music and playing games) and the battery is half done and when I don't use it at all it lasts for around one day.The explorer has a small 600 MHz proccessor but the only time I've seen lags are when u turn the power off then.on it can mainly be seen with the lock ring,the browser and opening apps.Overall the explorer deserves five stars its a great way to experiece and the htc sense UI.I'm using the explorer to write this review right now btw the spell correct or auto correct is perfect its corrected almost every word.I highly recommend it really get it.

Good: What i expected is what appeared. truly amazing!

Bad: its kinda small also low camera.

Comment: Amazing however i dont know if its the right option as (my opinion) weird phones like vivacity and sanfransisco 2 are coming out which are just a little faster. what would you decide. (also i would go to htc explorer, as it is an actual phone made by a great company)!

I want it
