Test: Einzeltest: HTC Wildfire S
Zitat: Cute : Most people would probably agree that the HTC Wildfire S is a cutie. It’s size and curvy design are eye-catching and it feels great in the hand or in the pocket. It does everything that HTC pitches: sharing photos and updates on social networks, mapping, web browsing… etc.
Slow, small screen : However, it doesn’t do it in a comfortable way. Things are slow and web browsing is a bit cramped inside the small screen. As you have seen in the performance section, the Wildfire S is definitely not a race horse and this affects the usability. I would never call it a “superphone” as HTC does.
For casual users : But, there is a market for this phone: I would recommend it only to casual users who are primarily attracted to the Wildfire S industrial design. Typically, they would just want to tap into what Android has to offer in terms of apps, browser compatibility and cloud data synchronization (contacts, email…), but who don’t need the edgy performance that bigger handsets do offer. When used in that context (if you remove the performance from the equation), the HTC Wildfire S is a neat-looking phone that turns heads.
I hope that this review has given you the information that you were looking for, but if there is an aspect that I have not covered, please post a comment, and I will try to address it while I still have the phone. Your feedback will help make future reviews better.
