The Hero has also replaced the standard Android interface with it’s own, called the HTC Sense. The HTC Sense is a very customizable user interface, including ‘widgets’ like Twitter and Footprints. It also has improved Android devices such as Outlook e-mail, contacts and calendar synchronization. For multimedia, it features an impressive 5 megapixel camera, with zoom, autofocus, flicker adjustment, video recording and geotagging. A 3.5mm headphone jack, with side volume buttons for easy accessibility which is essential for music. For connectivity, it has Bluetooth, GPS, Wi-Fi, and 3G support. Not to mention a microSD expansion slot, for more memory that you’ll know what to do with.
As for aesthetics, the Hero doesn’t disappoint. With rounded corners and a smooth, streamline look, the design is nothing short of sleek. It’s also very compact, weighing on 4.5 ounces and being half an inch thick. Though the size doesn’t mean a small screen, it has a 3.2”, 480×320 resolution touch screen. And although it has a similar shape to the MyTouch 3G, the Hero is a higher quality phone.
