It's only been a few months since the HTC Magic
But the leap forward HTC's made in the meantime is phenomenal. That's down to the new Sense overlay on top of Android. HTC's stuffed in loads more widgets to pop on your home screen - of whi...

The editors didn't like
Progress needed for multimedia
Overly dependent on Google services
The Hero is a more mature Android phone. Progress still needs to be made but it is certainly the best of the phones currently using the Google OS
Poor camera
Laggy OS
Lack of video codec support
Slow internet browsing
Below par camera
Slight lag
Video performance
Needless lip on body
Average video app
Interface overly complicated
Uninspiring looks
As slick as the Hero looks
HTC could still fine tune the hardware a bit more. The camera lacks a flash
The trackball feels cheap
And that lip on the bottom juts out even more than Leslie Ash's face pillows. While it feels fine in the hand

Some issues with Flash video support
Some people may be overwhelmed by customisation options
Angled ‘chin’ design an acquired taste. Limited internal memory. Memory card slot under cover. Disappointing camera
Abstract: I feel dirty in a way, and Ill tell you why. This is and always has been a Windows Mobile site. To be given a HTC Hero to play with for a couple of weeks? No.. we dont want it. Why? Because its powered by Google Android - a new competitor for Window...
Epic customisability; well-designed home screen widgets with live updates; easy-to-use keyboard; convenient Android Market for apps; multitouch capability; Flash support; 3.5mm headphone jack; Facebook integration
Sluggish at times; Flash video is dodgy; no easy way to back up and restore; button and menu overkill
If you can stand the Hero's occasional sluggishness, it's a fantastic smart phone packed with great features. We like its distinctive looks, and the innovative user interface brings Android much closer to being as fun and good-looking as the iPhone OS...

At last the phone weve been waiting for has finally arrived. The HTC Hero has emerged blinking into the light, complete with the new Sense UI, to unleash a smackdown on the iPhone 3GS and the Palm Pre. Android upgraded, this is the most powerful Googl...
The Hero is a fantastic step-up from both the HTC G1 and Magic. With the new Sense UI and Android strapped to its back its a true contender for the do-it-all phone top spot.

With the HTC Hero, Android has finally come of age. It's almost the complete smartphone package now, helped no end by HTC's software rejigging and solid and sexy design stuffed with up to date hardware. iPhone, if you're listening, it's ti...
