HTC EXPLORER REVIEW,PRICE AND SPECIFICATIONS


HTC Explorer is the latest entry in the smartphone market from HTC. It is a pretty impressive phone with both interior and exterior of decent quality. The body of this set is very attractive with curved edges and a gold striped back.The rubberized back fits comfortably in the palm and the phone is easy to use without much discomfort.

It is provided with a 3.2" LCD touch screen with 320*480 pixel display. The screen is also quite good and responsive. Only thing I found a bit of a discomfort was the oleophilicity of the screen. It was fingerprint prone which made its continuous use quite irritating. Gorilla glass must have been added to the phone with this price tag attached to it.

It is powered with a decent enough 600MHz processor which makes the phone runs quite smoothly. The phone does not have much speed related problems. With its 512 MB RAM, the Android OS in the set runs quite efficiently without much problems. Although, the processor could've been a little faster, but it is not something to moan about in this phone.

Android runs quite efficiently in the Explorer. The interface is also quite good. The phone being a mid-range phone, and an Android at that, makes it quite a potent gadget.

A3.15 MP camera is fitted in the set but there is no auto-focus or flash in this set which makes photography rather dull. It is capable of recording videos at 480p resolution which is quite decent for a mobile phone.

Overall, it is a pretty impressive set with all the features of a smartphone. The android is quite good and the hardware and design are also of impressive quality. If you want a mid-range Android set, this can be your choice.
