HTC Wildfire Review
Score: 45.9 / 100
HTC Wildfire is a not so powerful Android phone launched many years ago, packed with a 5 MP back side camera, a medium sized 3.2 inches screen and a good processing unit ticking at 528 MHz.
Though this phone is as big as 4.2 inches long and 2.38 inches wide, it only contains a way smaller 3.2 inches display. This phone is a little bit thick compared to nowadays phones, being as thick as 0.51 inches. This device doesn't feel very lightweight for a device of this size, with a weight of 4.16 oz.
HTC equipped this device with a low level 3.2-inches display, and a 320 x 240 (QVGA) resolution, giving this cellphone a low detail graphic quality. Its display uses TFT capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch gestures.
HTC decided to power this cellphone with a fast processor speeding at 528 megahertz, included in the Qualcomm Snapdragon S1 MSM7225 system chip and only 384 MB RAM memory.
The HTC Wildfire only has a 5 megapixels back side camera. It is capable of capturing videos in QVGA 320x240 at 24 frames per second. To complete the camera, it also includes a few nice characteristics: auto-focus, flash and geo tagging.
This phone includes wi-fi connection (but it can't share it with other devices around, as a mobile hotspot) and the fastest 3G data connection, supported by HSDPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This cellphone works with a SIM card for GSM connection.
The HTC Wildfire counts with a 1300 mAh medium Li-Ion battery that provides this cellphone a below average battery duration. This device has an aproximate 8.2 hs talk time and a 480 hs stand by time.
This phone also comes with a couple nice features as Bluetooth (2.1, EDR), GPS and FM Radio, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.
The HTC Wildfire is very overpriced considering it is priced $ 135, and other similar cellphones are being sold much cheaper than that.
