iPhone 4 vs HTC Desire personal comment
Nowadays, it's too common that every human has AT LEAST one smart phone in their pocket. I could simply see a 50-years-old ajumoni (aunty in korean) playing angry birds with iphone 3GS in the bus. @.@ Well, what I want to say is that, I think that technology has come to a point where mobile phone has been integrated into an advanced tool that not serve only the function of sms and dialing.
mp3 player + laptop + PSP + radio + (etc...) = smart phone
and I have also integrate my mobile phone from Sony Ericsson w850i to HTC Desire.
Not a bad phone, I can comment, although it still has something I'm not very satisfy. But overall speaking, it's nice and it's more than enough to let me enjoy it~~
My sister is the one who bought me this HTC. Why is she so kind to buy me such expensive phone? (It costs RM 2199) Well~~ Long story~~~ -.-||| with terms and conditions applied... HAHAHAHA.... And she's using iPhone 4, which was my first choice, but I changed my mind at the very last moment. Reason?
iPhone is way too common!!! I can see iPhone whenever I opened my eyes!!!! LOL!!!
Okay~ So now I have something to say about these two phone: iPhone 4 and HTC Desire. For those who want to purchase either one of these phones, PLEASE think carefully~~
(Well, I'm not going to go through the spec of these phones)
(Please refer here for iPhone 4)
(Please refer here for HTC Desire)
In term of appearance, I think iPhone 4 takes the advantage, at least in my point of view. It's very class and it is scratch-resistant for both side, although my sister put a casing for it. It still looks good. HTC Desire might looks like iPhone 3G. So I think iPhone 4 win~~
Price
This is one of the reason why I choose HTC Desire. Refer to the website I posted below the images, iPhone 4 is much much more expensive than HTC Desire. (RM 3030 for iPhone 4 and RM 1870 for HTC Desire) Seems like the price of HTC Desire drops since the last time I visit the website, but it's reasonable as HTC Desire is launched in Malaysia on May 2010. HTC Desire wins~~
Internal Memory
This is what consumer seldom mention. Let's put iPhone 4 aside as we can choose either 16GB or 32GB for the internal memory, it will not be the problem. Although HTC Desire states that it has 512MB of internal memory, but when I got the phone, it has only about 50~60MB left. WHERE'S THE OTHER 300++MB????? My friend has just answered me. The 300++ MB has been used for the OS. I've asked the agent of the HTC and I got a disappointed reply "It's like this, we can't change it". Besides, although Android 2.2 (Froyo) allows us to transfer some application to SD card (8GB), but some applications don't allow us to do so. So, the internal memory is still a problem. iPhone 4 wins~~
This might be one of the big reason for you to change your mind if you want to buy HTC Desire, because this is a big issue. A smart phone which doesn't allow you to install many apps is NOT A SMART PHONE!!!
Market/iTunes
As you all know, Android Market is like iTunes for apple. We download applications from there. Although iTunes has some interesting and unique applications that Android doesn't have, but Android Market has 70% of the applications are free!!! For example, Whatsapp is one of the application I used. It's free for Android user, but iPhone users need to PURCHASE it from iTunes. So, HTC Desire wins~~
WiFi Problem
iPhone 4 has completely no problem with it's WiFi. It's perfect. But for Android phones, like HTC Desire, they don't have much problems too, except one. Seems like Android's phones' WiFi are not compatible with some router such as D-link. The reason is still unknown. I've searched many website and asked many people. Seems like the similarity is D-link router. I don't know the reason, too. iPhone 4 wins~~
Camera
Well, both don't have any problems at all~~ I shall call it a DRAW~~ LOL Both 5 megapixels. It's more than enough~~
Resolution
It's actually not a very big problem for me. iPhone 4 has a much better and bigger resolution than HTC Desire. But really, the resolution HTC Desire has is enough for me. I have no much greed for it. LOL.... However, iPhone 4 wins~~
Casing
It's so unfair that iPhone 4 has so much casing type to be sold everywhere but HTC Desire has only one type!!! haha.... Choose iPhone 4 if you are someone who focus on appearance... LOL HTC Desire does not have much choices. =X
--------------------------------------------------------------
Well... that's all I can say about these two phone. Honestly, I'm kinda regret that I didn't choose iPhone 4. But owning HTC Desire doesn't make me sad too. It's considered perfect for me. And if your budget is limited, HTC Desire is more than enough for you. It has an interface iPhone 4 doesn't have. If your budget is not enough to buy HTC Desire, but you still want a smart phone? Choose HTC Wildfire then.. LOL
Anyway, HTC Desire receive the award 'Phone of the year'. So I think I have no regret for buying though... XD
Thanks for the listening. Stay Tune.
(It's Junhyung from BEAST again~~ >.<)
