htc HERO


HTC Hero is our first phone to embody HTC Sense™ - an intuitive, seamless experience built upon three fundamental principles - make it mine, stay close, and discover the unexpected.



Make it Mine
With HTC Hero, personalization reaches a level never before possible. Rather than burying important content under layers of menus, the HTC Hero lets you put it at glance view, with a selection of widgets that can be placed right on the home screen. The widgets themselves can be personalized with a variety of designs and sizes that best match your personality.With Scenes, a new profile feature, HTC Hero becomes multiple phones in one. Create and switch between Scenes that reflect different moments in your life. Your Hero becomes a weekend phone that helps you relax with your choice of tunes, catch up with your favorite friends and capture some memories with HTC Footprints™. And when you go on a trip, your phone becomes your personal guide and gives you instant access to local time, weather and maps.

Stay Close
Today, staying in touch with the people in your life means managing a variety of communication channels and applications ranging from phone calls and emails to Facebook updates. HTC Hero makes staying close as simple as turning to your friend and saying hello. When you view people, you see the different ways to get in touch, you also see all your interactions like emails sent to your personal and work accounts. You can even check for social network updates and event notices as well as see the latest pictures your friends uploaded to popular photo sharing sites.

Discover the Unexpected
Many of the most memorable moments in your life are experienced, not explained. Even basic functions like the dialer will pleasantly surprise you on the HTC Hero. You can find a person by dialing their phone number or simply by dialing the first few letters of their name.With HTC Hero, you can look at things through different perspectives. Your inbox is not just a list of emails, but a catalog of conversations, a collection of notes flagged as important, and a document library of all your emails with attachments. Your Album is not just the photos saved on your phone. It is also a gateway to online collections of you and your friends on Facebook or Flickr.Search just about anything, anywhere on your HTC Hero. The dedicated Search button combs through tweets in Twitter™, locates people in your contact list, finds emails in your inbox, searches through appointments in the calendar and very nearly finds needles in haystacks.

Nokia 5630 XpressMusic review: A sharp note

The XpressMusic family has walked a long way – and shed a great deal of weight – since the 5700. The music-centric Finns have always felt at home on Symbian ground though, and the Nokia 5630 is the next step for them and they’re getting smarter and faster. A sharp mind in a fit body, the latest XpressMusic smartphone packs the quickest processor Nokia have offered to date.

Nokia 5630 XpressMusic Nokia 5630 XpressMusic Nokia 5630 XpressMusic Nokia 5630 XpressMusic Nokia 5630 XpressMusic
Nokia 5630 XpressMusic official photos

XpressMusic is not the Nokia 5630’s only virtue. The subdued exterior reveals little of the talent that lays beneath. Along with the music perks go Wi-Fi, a 3-megapixel snapper, N-Gage support, and S60 FP2 to open the door to a whole world of extra apps.

Of course, it’s not without its flaws but think again before casting the first stone. The 5630 XpressMusic is slim enough – both in girth and price – to dodge its critics.

Key features:

  • ARM 11 600 MHz processor
  • Quad-band GSM support
  • 3G with HSDPA
  • 12 mm slim
  • 2.2" 16M-color QVGA display of excellent sunlight legibility
  • 3 megapixel camera, enhanced fixed focus and dual LED flash
  • VGA video-call camera
  • Symbian OS with S60 3.2 UI
  • Stereo FM radio with RDS
  • Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g with UPnP technology
  • Bluetooth (with A2DP) and microUSB port
  • microSD card slot (16 GB supported, 4GB included)
  • Standard 3.5mm audio jack
  • Dedicated music keys
  • N-Gage support
  • Ovi Contacts integration
  • Contacts bar on the homescreen
  • N-Series-like gallery
  • Carrying pouch supplied
  • Text-to-speech Message reader system application

Main disadvantages:

  • Cheap plastic build
  • microSD card very hard to eject
  • Screen is on the small side for comfortable web browsing or video watching and has inaccurate color reproduction
  • Camera has no autofocus and tends to oversharpen images
  • Video recording quality is poor and the framerate – low

We quite like the nice little twist the Nokia 5630 XpressMusic brings in terms of looks and substance. Behind its youthful and playful disguise, there is indeed a power smartphone (along the lines of Nokia E52) to meet all your media and connectivity needs.

The Nokia 5630 is quite reminiscent of the super slim 5310 XpressMusic. It doesn’t have the flashy aluminum accents but the added power and S60 make it a real workhorse. And having in mind it’s a smartphone – and a powerful one too – it makes the slim waistline even more impressive.

So, now that we’ve got you tuned in to the Nokia 5630 XpressMusic, we guess you might be eager to see it in action. Let’s roll.

Sony Ericsson Q2 sales down 43 percent from last year

Sony Ericsson saw a significant decrease in handset sales in the second quarter of 2009, having shipped 13.8 million phones, a 43 percent decrease from the same period a year ago, according to its earnings report.

The company saw a net loss of 213 million EUR (US$300 million), compared with a net income of 6 million EUR (US$8.5 million) in the same quarter last year. It still beat analyst expectations, which predicted a 284 million EUR (US$400 million) loss.

It's the fourth straight quarterly loss for the cell phone maker, which expects a 10 percent decrease in the global market through the end of the year. The company's president, Dick Komiyama, isn't hopeful about the remaining months. "As expected, the second quarter was challenging and we still believe the remainder of the year will be difficult for Sony Ericsson," he said in a statement.

The company will continue to reduce operating expenses by a further 880 million EUR. Its workforce has already been reduced by 2,350 employees.
