HTC Hero Graphite Reviews
A great phone but it does have some annoying glitches that make it a bit below perfect. for instance the touch screen, although it feels good, is not the most responsive and if you have big fingers like me then typos are a frequent occurrence. Probably the most annoying thing though is the slow response time of the operating system that means at times there is a pause before it does what you want.
On the positive side it feels great in your hand and the customisable screens are really very good as well as the free applications that are actually useful !!! Lastly i should also say that the battery life is typically, for smartphones, rubbish even if you dont use the GPS or WiFi. Overall i would say this phone is nearly there but not quite.
