The editors liked

  • Pocket-friendly size
  • Nice design
  • Affordable
  • Wireless N capability for faster web browsing
  • Tiny metal shell feels just like a Desire S
  • Solid and durable body
  • Great features on HTC Sense 2.1
  • Responsive capacitive touchscreen
  • Fairly decent still shots
  • Includes the latest Android 2.3 OS
  • Android 2.3 at a pocketfriendly price
  • Small size
  • Topnotch networking integration.
  • It’s easy to judge budget smartphones as inferior to more costly handsets
  • But in the HTC Wildfire S we have a smartphone that offers features similar to pricier models. We love the unibody design that combines form and function. A 512MB internal memory can easily be upped to 32GB using a microSD card
  • Offering plenty of room for music
  • Photos and video. The HTC Wildfire S’ 3.2-inch screen offers
  • Truly pocket-sized
  • Improved screen resolution
  • Up to date Android 2.3 software
  • HTC Sense offers an easy connected experience
  • Great design
  • Smart design
  • Android 2.3
  • HTC Sense
  • Compact
  • Stylish design / Pleasant to use
  • Good finish
  • Decent resolution considering the screen size
  • HTC Sense interface

The editors didn't like

  • 600MHz processor is a little slow
  • VGA video recording produces unimpressive video clips
  • Design
  • The HTC Wildfire S is slimmer and lighter than its predecessor - it only weighs 105g and it's just 101.3mm x 59.4mm in size
  • So you can comfortably hold and
  • You'd never guess it was Android 2.3
  • So little has changed
  • Under-powered processor
  • Disappointing video recording
  • No DivX/Xvid video playback
  • Too expensive for what's on offer
  • Low screen resolution
  • Short on internal memory.
  • Umer Awards last year but since then
  • Other phone makers have managed to produced smartphones with even more features at even lower prices. So can its sequel
  • The HTC Wildfire S
  • Fare as well in an evermore crowded market?
  • The dinky size isn’t for everyone. One downside to the smooth unibody is getting used to holding the thing without accidentally dropping it. You also cannot play Flash video. And even when playing non-Flash video
  • The HTC Wildfire S tends to struggle. Web browsing could also feel a little quicker
  • So overall media performance feels limited.
  • Slow processor means sluggish performance
  • Not suitable for large-handed users
  • Camera is disappointing
  • Might be bettered by legacy devices still available
  • Limited multimedia performance
  • Finish on the back is a little slippery
  • Low res screen
  • HTC Sense can't be updated
  • Not powerful enough for advanced use
  • Sound quality and photos could be better

  • It may very well be HTC's low price Android offering, but that doesn't mean the HTC Wildfire S is the best affordable Android option. The HTC Wildfire S is however, the new micro Android option. If your fingers are the size of a grain of rice, and you're ...

  • Initially priced at S$388, the HTC Wildfire S has spent sufficient time in the market and should see a few price adjustments from its authorized resellers. The same can be said for its immediate competitors, the Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini and Huawei Ideos...

  • I'll have to give this HTC Wildfire S a 7 out of 10. Its major strength is that is really DOES make it easier for me to connect with everyone else. It is very handy and can easily fit in my pocket or evening purse. My only concern would mostly be related ...

  • Despite its apparent faults, we can't help but feel a certain affinity for HTC's little Wildfire S. It still has the wonderfully-intuitive Sense user interface, which is arguably one of the better Android based smartphone UI's out there. Plus, in the end...

  • Touchscreen. Good color reproduction and very responsive, Solid build quality and good design, The Wildfire S is loaded with Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) while most competing entry level Android handsets are still stuck on Android 2.2 (Froyo)
  • Price. Most expensive entry level Android smartphone, Bundled micro SD card is only 2 GB

  • Este celular tiene una buena cámara (5 megapixeles), un diseño atractivo y una interfaz intuitiva y sencilla (Android 2.3 y HTC Sense 2.1)
  • Si quieres disfrutar al máximo de todas sus funciones necesitas de una memoria microSD ya que la capacidad interna es mínima
  • Excelente opción para los que están entrando al mercado de los smartphones. A un buen precio, el HTC Wildfire S te permite tomar fotografías y compartirlas instantáneamente, además de navegar en Internet y descargar aplicaciones desde la tienda Google ...
