The HTC Desire Z is a newly released QWERTY smartphone from the manufacturer. A successor to the original HTC Desire, which was recently released in conjunction with the Desire HD, it boasts a number of impressive key features.
Utilising the increasingly common combination of a touchscreen and physical keyboard, the HTC Desire Z offers the best of both worlds in terms of both UI navigation, and efficiency of text entry. As well as this, there is also a 5 megapixel digital camera, Android OS 2.1 with the HTC Sense UI and full Wi-Fi connectivity.
The handset measures 119x 60.4x 14.2 mm and only weighs in a 180 grams, which is respectable for a handset which has a separate keyboard panel. The 3.7 inch S-LCD capacitive touchscreen has the ability to display up to 16M colours within its pixel configuration of 480x 800 making it perfect for viewing photos and video files, especially in conjunction with it
