    hi all dere !
    I've been using this device for the past 3-4 weeks. It is exceptional. Coming from Nokia 5800, S60V5 device, i'm having a different experience altogether. Although i was using SPB mobile shell on my last cell, customization options here are awesome.
    A lot of discussions are going on regarding its comparisons with N900 but its not realistic. Only comparisons can be made are with android devices. Persons wanting android should go with it.
    I have used SGS I9000 before, the only real competitor to it. Apart from the screen contrast, vibrancy and front facing camera, SGS pales in comparison with it.
    Regarding the 800 Mhz processor, it is blazing fast compared to 1 Ghz processor of SGS. There were occasional lags on SGS and for a person who is moving to android for the first time and does not want to root his/her device, this is the best. Sense UI is miles ahead of Touch Whizz.
    The physical keyboard is good and is not loose. For normal use you wont find the Z hinge a problem.
    only if you want to find faults, you can find faults with even GOD.
    The only prob I face is battery life, as I'm tinkering with it most of the times.
    Hope it helps !

        It's my first meeting with an android based device. I had to choose between HTC Desire Z and HTC Desire HD but I wanted a QWERTY keyboard smartphone for browsing and I'm sure I made the right choice.

            For me, this has been a very good phone. I had a Nokia N86 and that was one of the worst phones I have ever had. First of all, Android OS is years ahead of the buggy, bad performanced Symbian.

            Choosing this phone was not easy. There were few other options, like the iPhone and the Samsung Galaxy S.

            - I was close to buying the Galaxy S, but it had some disadvantages over the Desire Z: No qwerty, no LED flash, (no pictures in the dark, or flashlight option..) and the HTCSense is service is only for HTC, of course. :)

            Cons:
            - some people may think that the qwerty pops out a bit too easily, not really a problem for me. Accidentally it has never done that
            - In video recording there is one stupid feature. When it get's darker, the FPS decreases, cause the phone tries to make the video less dark.

            After all, a great phone. It has advantages over any other smartphone. And qwerty is always usefull. For example when playing games which had not been invented for touch screen, like emulator games.

                        *Connectivity Issues Anyone?*

                        Hi! I recently bought this phone after a lot of review and absolutely love all the features. However I have GSM connectivity issues at some spots which didn't exist on my earlier phone.

                        Anybody experienced a similar issue? I am looking all over the web, also contacted HTC but no avail.

                                        galax, 22 Dec 2010Is the hinge loose as people say it is? I'm worried it may become really flimsy and might open... moreThe hinge is designed to allow easy opening and closing of the keyboard. The keyboard does not open by itself. If you hold the phone normally, and I stress NORMALLY, you would grip the phone on the sides when the keyboard is closed. Your grip and the tension of the spring will prevent the keyboard from opening by itself. I have had the phone since the beginning of November and the keyboard has never opened by itself when I did not want it to.
