In my opinion about the HTC wildfire I think its a stunning phone on the design and then performance. It has a great capacity of holding the space on your phone, this is good because you could always back it up. The only major bad thing about the phone is the start up time but that comes on most phone's, if they could speed up the start up time that would be perfect. The bad point about this phone is that the market on android updates on its own time compared to the other android phones which I think is ridiculous because its still a android phone so why doesn't it do the same as any other.

The HTC Wildfire is a smart little phone, although it is not the greatest. It can be slow at times, and when you have too many text messages and conversations stored in it, this slows it down. I think it looks quite smart and the base colours are rather nice as they are metallic and make the phone look quite modern and it is quite handy when using the net on the go. I would definitely get another HTC phone after this one. Some of the apps you can download are great and I dare say that some are better than the iPhone. I have managed to play pokemon yellow, red and blue on my Wildfire which is such an old school game, and I have become addicted again!

The battery life is not too bad as long as you do not have all the widgets going on it. I tend to take these off and just have the necessary apps there as you have to charge your phone every day if you don't.

This phone has great features and is very easy to use. I love the amount of apps you can get and the touch screen is very good and responds well. I would recommend this phone to anyone as a cheaper alternative to the iPhone. The battery life could be improved but it does last longer if you keep the wifi turned off. I have never had any problems accessing the Internet via the phone which I use on a daily basis. The size of the phone is good and it is quite light and not too bulky and I have so far had no problems what so ever with this phone.

The phone is an easy to operate smart phone that has very good android apps, the marketplace is clear to use but sometimes does not have the most up to date versions or latest craze. The pricing is good. I use my phone daily to call, text, email and news apps. The Internet browser is good although sometimes with heavy use the battery does not get me through to the end of the day. It works well with computers and does google functions such as GMail very well. However the phone does crash or call/text the wrong people as well as loading slowly. For an affordable smart phone it is worth having. If you have the money there are better versions.

This phone has excellent features. Battery life is poor but you could say that about any android phone. Overall this a really good phone. You can access all your email, twitter, facebook on the go. Wifi is great, especially when you are overseas as it allows you to connect to your email and surf the web without having to pay the horrendous data roaming charges. This has been superseded by the S version so you should get this for a really good price. Compared to similar priced phones out there on the market this tops them hands down. Get yourself a great phone at a bargain price.
