HTC Incredible S Reviews

    HTC Incredible S Review at Engadget

    Android, an operating system that has heretofore been characterized by constantly striving forward and pushing boundaries -- whether in terms of hardware specifications or the introduction of features wholly new to mobile devices -- has finally settled down and given rise to a truly mature product. Froyo has been with us for a good while, but that hasn't really tarnished its enduring excellence and HTC looks to have spent the time well in tightening up and optimizing its user experience. What's resulted is one of the most thoroughly refined Android handsets to date, whose case is enhanced by some dashing good looks, rock solid build quality, and a camera to be proud of. The Incredible S serves as a sterling exhibit of what can be achieved when devs and designers are given the time to polish up their work instead of having to reinvent the wheel with each and every new iteration. Of course, the flipside of that coin is that familiarity will inevitably breed some level of contempt, and this handset offers a compendium of good ideas from HTC's past rather than any revolutionary innovations of its own. Still, for those who disregard novelty in favor of a very well thought-out and produced device, the Incredible S delivers. Read more...

    HTC Incredible S Review at CNET

    In today's market, the HTC Incredible S may seem a little underwhelming when compared with all the dual-core, 4G goodness coming down the pike. However, it's important to remember that not everyone wants the latest and greatest, and it would be a shame to overlook the Incredible S based on the lack of certain specs, as it is an improved and refined smartphone.

    We wouldn't necessarily recommend buying the phone unlocked, since it's a bit pricey for what you're getting, but if the rumors about it being Verizon-bound are true, we think the Incredible S will make for a nice midrange option, as long as--and this is the key factor--it's priced appropriately.

    HTC Incredible S Review at SlashGear

    As we said at the start, it’s easy to discount the Incredible S from specs on a screen. A single-core processor, superseded version of Android and twiner display size all fall short on paper. In reality, though, the Incredible S manages to occupy a sweet-spot previously poorly served by HTC’s Android line-up. At 4-inches it’s more usable than the 3.7-inch Desire but not as unwieldy as the 4.3-inch Desire HD; the fact that the display itself is an excellent Super LCD panel does no harm either.

    It’s also a fine example of how manufacturer familiarity with a particular software build, hardware set and clear usability guidelines can add up to a great smartphone even without the latest specifications. With dual-core processors yet to convince on battery and functionality, you could certainly make the case that in sticking with the more proven single-core chip, the Incredible S does a better job of balancing speed and all-day usability.

    HTC Incredible S Review at PocketNow

    When we review a new phone, we’re sensitive to the fact that they don’t exist in a vacuum…meaning, we have to be cognizant of the phone marketplace today. If that weren’t the case, we’d rate the Incredible S highly: it has a terrific screen, exhibits great performance, takes awesome photos, and it’s loaded with the latest version of HTC Sense.

    HTC Incredible S Review at ZDNet

    The HTC Incredible S has a definite appeal thanks to its large screen and high-end specifications. The front-facing camera may be useful for video calling, and the screen is great for text entry and web browsing. But if you're looking for innovation, look elsewhere: the Incredible S is not, actually, all that incredible. Read more...
