If bendylegs69 is going for an andriod handset then no, Nokia don't do the andriod thing unfortunetly

I have the desire and as I've stated elsewhere it's a great piece of kit. Very easy to use, fast and does everything I want it to. The only other phone I considered was the Sony Vivaz for the hd camera but I've heard so many stories about the touchscreen firmware on SE phones being buggy as hell I gave it a miss

the touchscreens on my satio is fine 8) it was either that or the HTC HERO 2. it was down to personal preference.

That's basically the HTC Desire but with a trackball

True, the hardware's almost identical - but the HTC sense UI is very nice.

I've got the Desire HD and I love it! It's fantastic. Some people say it's 'too big' and 'heavy' but IMO, they need to grow a pair and MTFU :twisted:

I've got a desire and it's great. Would definitely recomend it, I didn't go for the HD because it was more money, plus at the time I thought it would be too big, but now I'm used to a smartphone sized phone, I'd be happy with the HD too.

Look on Techradar for a review.

Have a look at the x12 otherwise known as the arc from se. Fantastic piece of kit.

I've got a Desire provided by work, it's mediocre. Android is overrated and reminds me of Symbian with a facelift.
Admittedly it's functional and pretty, but it wouldn't be something I'd ever buy myself

Funny every review I read it was pulling 9-9.5/10......

Saying that tho I have an x10 and wouldn't have another - nothing wrong with it but could do the same things on a desire for less money, and probably a nicer looking handset.

Depending on network the new HTC sensation is out this month or next, and that looks like a very nice bit of kit!

I have the HTC desire and although I do rather like it, the battery life is a bit poo and has been known to run out of power before the end of my shift at work.

i have a HD7 HTC, yes i was the one who got a windows phone, its a bit different from 3.5 years of iphone! but getting used to it and good quality.

Still got my HTC Desire. Still like it. Waiting on the new Nokia Windows phones to be released before considering the upgrade (though quite fancy the new Pre 3)
