It would be interesting to see how far this phone's processor could be overclocked to help deal with some of the more demanding functionality...may be something to think about.]]>Jun 28th 2010 4:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/]]>Jun 28th 2010 7:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/
I completely and totally agree with that statement, but is it just me not being able to recall this, or did Engadget never say this until iPhone 4 came out? I've seen the gallery and vids of the iPhone's camera and camcorder functionality, and I agree, it's better than my Evo's photos. I can see the graininess in my 8 megapixel photos. I just don't ever recall Engadget saying "quality matters more" so often until the new iPhone came out.

It's as if the writers of these blog entries feel "insecure" about the iPhone's lower megapixels, even though they're right. :P]]>Jun 28th 2010 11:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/
@spartandre217 "That's one of the funniest things ya know. When people used to say that phones had better resolution than the iPhone they were completely ignored by engadget, now they're doing screen resolution comparisons."

@JXCGunrunna "It is like browser tests. Engadget did a browser test on every phone that came out and compared it to the 3GS. they do not do that anymore since Android phones are faster."

so I guess my theory of not recalling hearing "quality matters more, obviously" until the iPhone 4 came out wasn't so far fetched...

hey look at that, i just agreed with myself...]]>Jun 28th 2010 11:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/
To be fair though, not many handset manufacturers have come out and said they purposely went for quality over the megapixels in recent years, likely due to the massive misconception by the average public that more megapixels equal a better camera.]]>Jun 29th 2010 2:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/(http://www.prestigemerchantservices.com)

Putting that screen resolution on an Android device is an insult to the platform...]]>Jun 28th 2010 4:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/No disagreement there. I like the design of the phone, but that resolution is pathetic. The UI might scale OK, but everything else will be horrible to use. ]]>Jun 28th 2010 5:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/the xperai mini is the same rez yet somehow on that smaller screen i find it perfectly okay.
that phone still sucks though. but i guess, if the pixel density is there, 320 x 240 can be done.]]>Jun 28th 2010 5:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/
Anyone who buys this likes the look, in a baby step kinda way, and/or wants to be an AINO (Android in name only). ]]>Jun 28th 2010 9:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/Jun 28th 2010 4:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/Jun 28th 2010 4:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/Jun 28th 2010 5:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/

"but the iPhone keyboard is definitely the best, I like the layout and the no vibration, and the fast multitouchness of it, and the ability to hold a vowel like a and get options for àâäæãåā"

Well i can tell you on the Desire, vibration is an option, when you hold a letter you get the options just how you like them, If you don't like the layout just get another :D]]>Jun 28th 2010 4:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/Jun 28th 2010 4:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/Jun 28th 2010 5:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/Jun 28th 2010 6:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/Jun 28th 2010 7:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/Jun 28th 2010 4:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/Agreed, the lack of resolution and mhz seems to be hurting this phone. All reviews I've read say the Aria never stutters and is just as small as this phone is.

Second the price you're mentioning: It's official retail price is 279€ in Europe *including* VAT. So without VAT it's around 220€ or 270 USD. Street price will probably be around 249€ with VAT or 200€ without VAT which is around 250 USD.
