If I've failed to mention it in my previous post on the Desire HD, please forgive me, both the Desire HD and Desire Z are android phones.
From the photo, you might have realise what's the difference between the Desire HD and the Desire Z is that the latter has a QWERTY keyboard that slides out. Very very useful if you have big thumbs and fingers that often "touch" on the wrong letters on the touchscreen keyboard. It's called the Desire Z partly because of Z hinge it uses for its QWERTY keyboard. The Z hinge allows the QWERTY keyboard to slide smoothly out and gives your fingers ample spaces to rest on, ensuring you a fast typing experience.
The HTC Desire Z also has a 3.7 inch screen which makes watching videos, photos and surfing the internet quite an enjoyable experience. Text is automatically resize as you zoom in and out of the webpage. With Flash 10.1 built-in to the phone, you can view the webpages exactly the way they are.
What I like about the Desire Z is the ability to view all your emails on one screen. No more browsing each email accounts if you've multiple acc. They all download into one inbox so it saves you time when you check your emails.
The HTC Desire Z also lets you view, edit and create Microsoft Office documents if you need to. Good if you've deadlines to meet you and you don't want to waste time doing nothing on your way home or to work.
Most importantly, HTC Desire Z is coupled with HTC Sense. Just to refresh your memory, HTC Sense is a service concept that HTC has come up with. With HTC Sense, you can manage your HTC Desire Z from a remote secure web portal: HTCSense.com. Features of this HTC Sense include you can use the remote portal to change from "silent mode" to "ringing mode" if you've misplaced your phone in your home and is trying to call your phone (which has silent mode turn on) to locate its position. It also allows you to lock your phone if you've realised that you dropped your phone while shopping so that the person picking it up will have no choice but to call you back and return your phone. Just you case you are worried that your data in your phone will be stolen, you can back them up in the portal and delete them from the phone using the portal. No more worries about your pictures getting posted online when you lose your phone!
With all the above mentioned features & functions, no wonder it's called a HTC Smartphone.
