<b>The phone of the year has evolved</b>
What happens when you take a multi award-winning smartphone like HTC Desire and improve it? You end up with HTC Desire S, showcasing a spacious 3.7 inch screen, a stronger and slimmer unibody design, with a heightened sense of intelligence, speed and clarity. It's reliability on a whole new level.
<b>Evolved browsing, smarter & faster</b>
Visit all your favorite websites from the palm of your hand. Need to see something more up close? Simply pinch the screen to zoom in or out of a page, and watch the text reflow automatically to perfectly fit your screen. Run into something that sparks your curiosity? Just press on the screen to highlight text and quickly look it up on Google, Wikipedia, YouTube or the dictionary.
<b>Memories, now in HD</b>
You can now capture any moment wherever you are because your phone is now a quality camera. The improved HTC Desire S comes with an impressive, all-in-one camera and HD video recorder to capture and replay all your moments in crystal clear clarity.
<b>Evolved to be more you</b>
Tailor your phone exactly how you want it - easier, quicker, smarter. Create shortcuts by putting your favorite web links, apps or phone numbers right on your home screen. And since you have 7 different homescreens to make your own – fill them with widgets that give you live stock updates, weather forecast or social networking updates from your friends... HTC Desire S will change to whatever is important to you.
<b>HTC Sense</b>
HTC Sense is an experience designed around many little insightful ideas. Ideas that seem so simple, you think “why hasn’t any one else thought of that? It just makes sense.” It’s a phone experience full of lots of little surprises, delighting you every time.
<b>Face-to-face conversations</b>
You can be in two places at once with your HTC Desire S. Even if you're miles away, you can be there in an instant with live video calls straight from your phone.
<b>Maps that never keep you waiting</b>
Maps are stored on your HTC Desire S so you can access them instantly – with zero wait time and zero data roaming fees. Pan left, right, up or down, the details display straight away. And there's more - the maps are integrated with a compass so they always point you in the right direction.
<b>All the news in one place</b>
There's no need to wait for the latest news bulletin, because the HTC Desire S syncs with Google Reader. This means you instantly view all the news and commentary from your favorite websites and blogs in one place. Find a website you like? Add it to your reader with one single tap on the RSS icon. With HTC Desire S, you'll never miss a beat.
<b>All your email accounts in one place</b>
Like most people you probably have more than one email account, which isn't easy to manage on a phone. HTC Desire S merges them all together into one inbox so you can see everything on the one screen. They're color coded so you know what's what, and you can sort them by importance, groups or content. Super organized and super efficient.
<b>Share it to a BIG screen</b>
HTC Desire S has a large 3.7 inch screen but when you want to share your photos or videos to a bigger audience, HTC Desire S allows you to wirelessly stream them straight to your TV via a DLNA connection
