HTC Wildfire

I finally decided that it was about time I settled on a smartphone and I chose the HTC Wildfire. After hours of research I came upon the decision that I would get it. For ages I had my eyes set upon the handsome blackberry curve 8520 but lack of features and bad quality camera meant that I would not be fully satisfied had I bought it. I was about to click the place order button on Amazon on the Blackberry when I looked back for one final check at the HTC Wildfire and the rest... is self explanatory.

Now... enough of my waffling on, let me say what I think about the phone

Pros...
1.) Well... um lovely handset, yeah I like the colours on the metal mocha and the curve at the end where the optical button is was nice. Very well and ergonomically designed
2.) The Android layout (HTC Sense) is really useful, good-looking and creative
3.) Social Networking, Texting and calling is amazing
4.) For its RAM specs (Just over 384 MB RAM and 528 Mhz proccesor) it runs very smoothy on errr... most games...(you know what the cons are gonna be about). No but seriously it does run a lot of games very wel, apps tend to be fine... brilliant as a matter of fact

5.) 5 Megapixel camera is excellent! (I'm used to horrendously awful "dumphone cameras")
6.) Youtube is fast and internet is fast
7.) Loads of features!

Cons...

1.) The screen resolution is said not to be as good as other more expensive smartphones out there (you can hardly notice this though)

2.) Can't run high spec games (Wind up knight, Minecraft pocket edition) <= (It will run steincraft though heh heh) (Don't worry guys this will run all the classics like : All the Angry Birds, Ninjump, Tiny Wings, Cut the rope and loads others

3.) Cannot run some apps for unknown reason ( It cannot run some apps, as I said, I'm not sure why I just can't see them on the Android Market which means they are not supported!)

Abrupt Stop!!! More later!!!

I recently acquired one of these phones and so far, am very pleased with it. It does everything one would possibly want and it makes very clear calls. Get one yourself at

They cost a tenner and are very sattisfying. If I can work out how this website thing adder works I will add a video review of it. In other news. I have joined the City of Bristol rowing club and that is going well. Contact them from their website if you want to join. They have a junior squad for kids so not only adults!
Also, I have made yet another video for Youtube so go on and learn all about, urr, um, rocks... yeah.
