If you want at least a decent camera, don't buy it!
After returning the first, I decided to give it a second chance, I really wanted to like this phone, I liked the display, the construction quality, the sound, Sense interface, etc., BUT the camera is abysmal! No matter how many updates it got, it still can't take an acceptable photo or video. Images lack detail and sharpness, as if over-processed, they look like watercolor paintings. In videos, it is very slow to focus and sometimes it doesn't manage to refocus at all (yes, I unchecked the option "Lock focus in videos"). The dynamic range is virtually nonexistent - if you want to get the sky right, the rest of the image is almost completely dark. If you get the rest of the image right, the sky is always just white. The colors are all over the place - greens are yellow-ish, red is pink, etc.
My antique Nokia E72 takes superior pictures in all respects and situations. The highlights are always blown out and faces always look weird with very bright and very dark areas at the same time. I know a little about photography, I'm not a pro, but I regularly use a DSLR camera and several other compact ones. This camera is the worst I've ever seen on any phone.
It's really a shame HTC has gone so low. I've been using their phones ever since their first Pocket PC devices with Windows Mobile but I can no longer recommend them. I paid almost 400 euros for this phone and I feel cheated.
