Tech lovers and mobile gadget geeks can now realize their dreams of a magical phone that blows away the boredom of using smartphones. Enter HTC's 3rd iteration into its Android mobile phone - the HTC Hero. It’s the smartphone hero everyone is waiting for - exactly the kind that can rescue the bored masses from using any other smart phone.

Starting with its design, the HTC Hero stands above its Dream and Magic predecessors with a sleeker more sexy touch screen form. It is the first mobile smartphone featuring HTC Sense, packing a host of powerful features and application over previous Android-based mobile phones.
Unique features

One remarkably noticeable feature is its slim form using Teflon coating that makes it stand out in a pack of smartphones with similar form factors. The HTC Hero uses a trackball for controlling much of the functions.

It’s the first HTC smartphone to offer Sense - the company’s customization initiative of the Android OS that enables stunning UI visuals, navigation and impressive application features. The feature allows HTC Hero owners a new level of handset personalization well above any in the smartphone market. Sense enables profile settings that are unique in the industry, allowing users to really define their mobiles phones uniquely "their phone."

It likewise features support for Flash animation and videos, as well as multi-touch internet browsing. Managing the usual phone information such as contacts takes the boredom from the typical controls and becomes an intuitive console seamlessly integrating text messaging, email, calls, social networking and other functions.
Hero’s mp3 playing experience is an immense improvement over that from your typical mobile players with the use of widgets right from the home screen. Moreover, HTC support the audio industry standards with the use of 3.5mm audio jacks, unlike other leading mobile phones using proprietary termination that keeps users away from high fidelity earphones.
Standard features

Reading the spec sheet on the HTC Hero at first glance does really impress as much of the technical features are at par with those of high end smartphones. But high end it still is. You get a large display form factor using capacitive touch screen with HVGA resolution similar to what’s out there. No physical keyboard but the onscreen one is among the most response in the market, using haptics to let you know as if you’re actually typing.

Quad band/GSM/GPRS/EDGE comes in standard. The 5-megapixel camera has auto focus. Its multimedia function supports virtually all the audio and video codecs known to man. Battery life is as good as any. Bottom-line, the HTC Hero leverages the features that have made smartphones popular. And with HTC’s innovative touch, it brings smartphones to a new level of functionality and appeal.
