Re:Here's the review (Score 2, Informative)

I own an HTC Desire. Must address some of the points you brought up: The screen, when turned up to full brightness, is manageable in bright sunlight. I'm from Malta, we have sun practically all year round, and I don't find this an issue. Sunlight is a problem with all smartphones, you just have to get used to tilting it at an angle every now and then. My touchscreen ALWAYS turns off during a call when the phone's next to my ear via the proximity sensor. Takes a fraction of a second to turn on once I move it away, but have never experienced any ear-presses, accidental or otherwise. Sound quality is equally very good. I've never used an iPhone, so can't compare directly, but the speakerphone and earpiece volume is more than sufficient even in a noisy environment. Flash actually works, and well. You can actually visit a website with flash content (perhaps not to the extent of Miniclip-type games) and it'll render perfectly. Heck, even just clicking a YT link somewhere or listening to an audio stream via flash works well. No lag at all. As for the keyboard, it learns pretty quickly and autocorrection is quite frankly amazing.
