HTC Desire or iPhone 3GS

Im a fan of the Android OS that runs on these phones keith :happy2:
v2.1 is sooo much better and the improved hardware of the newer phones means it runs swiftly.
v2.2 is imment to be rolled out too, the pace at which updates are coming is pretty mindblowing.
HTC add their own customisations (called SensUI) on top of 'vanilla' android, a lot of people prefer the way it looks/acts.
the downside so far is that updates can be slower (as HTC have to wait for the update then add SenseUI back on top) , but the 'fragmentation' of the android versions/platform is being addressed :happy2:
Current top of the crop are
Motorola Droid , really kick started the android 2.0 phenomenon but getting old now
Google Nexus One v2.1 but will get updates first as its 'Googles' phone.
HTC Desire : v2.1 +Sense
(the two above as Ive said are basically the same phone)
HTC Incredible is the new king.
I used to love my N95 , jumped to v1.5 android (a tad too soon) , but love it and desp want a NexusOne/Desire :signLOL:
Its also worth mentioning that Nokia are making good improvements with their new 'v3' symbian OS
just dont expect anything like decent battery life if you use all its functionality.
also google maps nav is now enabled for the UK (free satnav)

I'm trying to swap my Satio for an Xperia X10 at the moment - I'm keen to move to Android too.
I tried the HTC at a dinner party last night and I really liked it. If I ever jump ship from Sony Ericsson (the Satio was a huge let-down!) it'll be to HTC.
My other half has moved to 3GS recently (from SE) and really doesn't like it. Just my 2p.
JOHN_O - Symbian is dead. The Satio runs s60 V5 (licensed from Nokia!) and development has more or less ceased. They are clutching at straws with the new version(s) in an effort to keep up with Android and Iphone OS.

I was torn between HTC Touch HD and the iPhone 3G at the time. Then I heard a new iPhone was gonna be out and when it was released, the Touch HD had been discontinued. Hence I went for the 3GS.
The iPhoneis a reflection of how macs used to be - very safe and easy to use but a bit limited unless you jailbreak it.
john_o:
x10 is another good call animal :happy2: but a bit of an unknown tbh
v5 s60 ok , looks not bad though. shame the wagons moving pretty fast before nokia even get on it ...
Hurdy:
Love that comparison Stealth :grin:
