As the HTC Hero launched the topics around it is getting hot now. The thing that makes it so special is that this is the third HTC phone released based on Google Android OS. And now it comes with the debut of the customized UI HTC Sense, besides it’s the first Android phone with support for Adobe Flash Platform technology. But what they said about the HTC Hero?
Now people starts to make their opinion on their first impression of the HTC Hero. I quoted few comments from big blogs such CrunchGear, Engadget, and more will be added.
CrunchGear:
Sorry, Palm: this is the new hotness. The HTC Hero with Sense does everything WebOS can do but it uses Android, a platform that is already popular with the geekerati and has a great install base. There wasn’t much to see in these versions – a short hands-on appears below – but you’re looking at what promises to make Android the real killed feature-phone OS: customizability with an eye on processor intensive “data linking.”
We’re going to need some real time with the device to make a final opinion, but we’re cautiously optimistic that HTC has a winner with its new Hero. The beveled edges along the back makes the handset sit comfortably in the hand and the new Sense UI riding a capacitive touchscreen and people-centric approach to managing your information is absolutely dreamy at first blush. We had a sit down with HTC execs and learned that the Hero is not a “Google Experience” device.
