MWC 2011: HTC Booth Tour – Smartphone Iteration With Tablet Innovation This time last year Taiwanese manufacturer HTC blew everyone away with bold new designs, a fresh ‘Sense’ user interface, and a barrage of handsets targeting all tiers of the market. Needless to say, the mid-range Legend, entry-level Wildfire and well, desirable Desire (not so much the WinMo-powered HD mini) went on to run things in 2010, spearheading the charge of Google’s Android into the hands of many. This time around however, HTC seemed to be playing it incredibly safe, with tweaks, iterations and reboots of familiar hardware and software in their 2011 range. Even the promise of a exciting 7-inch tablet wasn’t enough to quell the fear that the manufacturer might have been spinning its wheels a little… HTC Incredible S – This flagship phone has already experienced some success on the other side of The Pond as the Droid Incredible, and it is admittedly as sexy looking as a top-flight HTC handset can get. The form factor is slick and unique, with the handset’s frame looking almost vacuum formed over the internal organs, whilst still housing an expansive 4-inch Super LCD display on the front. It felt awfully familiar to use, and the presence of the usual tropes of an HTC smartphone were what made it slightly underwhelming to get ahold of. The specs are looking decidedly less incredible now that dual-cores are all the rage, so the 1GHz Qualcomm processor and 768MB RAM get the Android-powered Sense UI moving at a rate of knots. It felt sturdy enough and the built-in surround sound was admittedly impressive when looking at a demo video, the styling was unique, but very little in terms of features and functions held any sway over some impressive competition. Check it out in motion. HTC Desire S – If the Desire HD was a bigger budget remake of the original Desire, then the Desire S is the soulless sequel, riding off the earlier installment’s name. A ‘Titanic 2‘, if you will. Whilst the Desire S looks every part the gorgeous HTC handset (the spirit of the awesome Legend lives on once again in the unibody aluminium frame), the changes in specifications are really very incremental. Running a 1Ghz Qualcomm processor, the performance was snappy but a little samey, whilst the decent Sense UI makes a return, but with few new flourishes. Sleeker and looking more like the original Desire than the widescreen HD, the 3.7-inch display and 5-megapixel camera will be familiar features to those owning the first iteration, albeit now sporting an even more rubberised frame. Playing with it was like meeting an old friend, but one that you’d only seen the week before and had very little new to say… HTC Wildfire S - It’s very tough not to like this cutesy refresh to the entry-level Wildfire, as the Wildfire S hits all the right notes to make for a great affordable device. Arriving in a range of colours, the Wildfire S has a 3.2-inch display, but with a beefed up resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, so an end to those super-blocky fonts and massive icons. It makes for an even more comparable user experience to its bigger brothers, whilst the 600Mhz processor does more than enough to keep the handset nippy when multitasking or browsing the web. It did feel a little fiddly at times to get the virtual buttons at the bottom of the display going, but it was more to do with the size of our hands than the device itself… The 5-megapixel rear camera is becoming standard at the lower pricepoints, but combined with its wi-fi connectivity, Android 2.3-powered Sense UI and a great feeling of fun, the Wildfire S is one reboot that I’d happily sit through. HTC ChaCha and HTC Salsa – Now the much-vaunted ‘Facebook phones’ were incredibly interesting, despite being aimed at texting teens rather than smartphone-loving grown ups. The dedicated Facebook button enables one-touch integration to everyone’s favourite timesink, enabling quick status updates and swift Facebook Chat IMs via a special client. The ChaCha sports a familiar screen and QWERTY-keyboard design, but this time the 2.6-inch HVGA screen is full touch, giving users the best of both worlds. The Salsa is a little more current with a 3.4-inch full-touch layout, but both possess 5-megapixel cameras with LED flash. These were under cover of glass when we were at the booth, so didn’t manage to get any hands-on time, but these little handsets for social butterflies seemed the most interesting, and the most indicative of where the market is headed… Take a look at the promo video to get an idea of how connected these two are… HTC Flyer – Now this got the blood pumping a little… A 7-inch tablet, looking every part the blown up HTC Legend but endowed with some awesome new features. The connection to HTC Watch for streaming movies and OnLive for full-fat gaming via the cloud, the stylus and HTC’s Scribe technology allowing for scribbling wherever you are in the device, as well as a revamped Sense UI for tablets reignited the excitement felt by the Taiwanese manufacturer when they took the wraps off the Desire 12 months ago. If they can inject some of this tablet innovation into their smartphones, HTC might be unbeatable. As it is, HTC’s new phones were a step forward in hardware, software and services – OnLive aside – whilst the competition are taking massive, somewhat risky leaps ahead… Tags: android, ChaCha, Desire S, Flyer, htc, HTC Salsa, Incredible S, Wildfire S
