Good Points
Big, bright screen. Easy to use - all my previous phones had physical keyboards, and I was dubious about using an on-screen touch keypad, but I have made the transition well, and I thoroughly enjoy using it.

Thousands of great free apps available, fantastic built in camera, call quality is great, so many great features.
Bad Points
I charge the phone up every night - but that's because I use the phone extensively throughout the day - phoning, texting, taking photos, browsing the internet and using the GPS.

It's very fast and very easy to use. I like the HTC Sense and the apps run smoothly with the 1GHz processor. Thie screen is very clear and so smooth to switch between the home screens. The camera is great but could definately do with a button on the side of the phone. The call quality is fine and the text messaging is great too.
Bad Points
The battery life is not so good but should last you a day. It is very slippery out of a case but with the case I bought from Amazon it's brilliant and not too big to hold.

this phone has replaced my laptop, it is incredible, design is beautiful, operating system is super, internet speed is top notch, it can do everything an iPhone wishes it could do! I think I just love it so much and use it so much that this contributes towards the shorter battery life!!
Bad Points
you may need to carry a spare battery which you can buy for 5 bucks online
