“I have a HTC Hero since it was launched, and I have been
satisfied with it, and think it can fill most people’s needs.
However, this phone also has a lot of faults, especially
hardware-wise. But the android operating system makes this phone a
great one, and the sense UI from HTC makes it even better!

“For those interested, the technical specifications are here.
From there, you can see that it isn’t even near the performance of
current generation smartphones. However, it offers great
functionality and covers the needs of most people. It can be used
to listen to music, update status on sotial networks, browse the
web, update you on the weather and make a phone call, all at the
same time! (try doing that on a factory iPhone!! xD), although
you’ll get some lag, especially on the browser (the browser is
great and deals with page rendering and javascript magnificiently!
But I can’t blame it if it lags on pages full of ads, JavaScript
and images, although I don’t experience any lag on mostly text
pages).”
