I LOVE THIS PHONE!!! underrated why????hater???ye
Just got the new HTC Desire Z and I am blown away by the slick technology and user friendly interface. The operating system Android 2 is like the interface on Apple, smooth sliding and scrolling, brilliant internet connectivity, wireless and bluetooth. This is an exceptional phone. The querty keyboard is fantastic. Only comment to HTC is that the toggle button is a little fiddly and it would be nice to have arrows on the keyboard to scroll through content. The phone slides open like a streamlined Farari door! This is the Rolls Royce of phones. Well Done. Looking forward to a wider scope of Apps from the Android comunity. Still haven't been able to download skype mobi for some reason. Ciao.

Can somebody please tell me the different between HTC Desire Z and TMobile G2? And I wanna know the price range of both phones.
Lost, 03 Mar 2011How did u update your Desire Z. I am Interested because my phones battery last 3/4 of a day?
... moreIt depends on the use. You should check the battery consumption stats. Go your home screen, press the menu button, then "settings", then "about the phone", then "battery", then "battery usage". I can see from there where the juice is going to. Most of it goes to the screen (almost 50%), so check your screen settings to make it less bright.
There are tons of guides out there to further tune and customize your desire Z. Just need to google a bit.
AnonD-123, 03 Mar 2011What update was this? I wasn't aware there was an update available for the Desire Z. I know ... moreIt is not gingerbread. Just a bug fix update. My kernel version is now 2.6.32.21, and the software number is 1.82.405.1.
Lost, 03 Mar 2011How did u update your Desire Z. I am Interested because my phones battery last 3/4 of a day?
... moreTo check your software is easy. Let me give you some instructions, though I must warn that my phone's language is not english and that the instructions may not be using the correct words. In the home screen, check android's menu button, then "settings", "about the phone", and select the software updates option. You have an option to check if your software is up to date.
This depends on your telco, though. I did not buy this phone through a contract, so I am able to follow HTC's updates immediately, without waiting for my provider to review/customize them.
is the battery life really 9hrs as its provided...??? imp coz want to buy it...
I have been listening about this Z-hinge for a very long time and even at one point of time i too was afraid to buy this phone, but trust me it isnt like it what you see in youtube....
I got this Case (book-type) from Pdair and this phone looks much like a complete business phone and awesome presence. If you think Z-hinge can be an issue for you, get this case.

I want to share my personal reviews on this phone:
Pro's
1. Adequate RAM, CPU and GPU...so no lag in whatsoever
2. Awesome qwerty keypad, well spacious and easy to use
3. multi-touch & trackpad
4. 720p camcorder - awesome video recording
5. Google Android experience with Froyo
6. GPS, tithering, 3G, Wifi - all in one combo
7. Premium metal finish - increase phone look and feel
Con's
1. weighs heavier than other phones (180gm)
>> but you will get used to it... :)
2. Battery mah is less
>> if you are a hardcore user, battery will last only a day, if you disabled edge / 3G you can drag up to 1.5-2days with only calls, however standby is really good (~1.2weeks)
3. Z-hinge
>> Hinge is never an issue, buy a pdair case to make it look more professional
