The editors didn't like
Sluggish speeds
Poor camera
Lackluster multimedia performance
Could use beefier processor
Not on AT&T but I am
Some key productivity apps still missing from Android Marketplace
Sluggish at times
Flash video is dodgy
No easy way to back up and restore
Button and menu overkill.
Some bugs. Slow Internet speeds. Lousy camera.
No camera flash
Lackluster camcorder
Still running Android 1.5
Same CPU as the Magic/myTouch 3G
Camera not much of an upgrade
Flash support somewhat oversold
Expensive on Sprint.
RAM/processor duo are a bit tired in tomorrow's market
Though not as bad as many claim
Keyboard performance seems to break down long before other apps show signs of distress
And the keyboard should be prioritized
Ability to multi-task and load the...
You need to go without the Sense extras for a snappy experience
My browsing experience on EDGE was very slow (issue for running on unsupported carriers)
Video camera isnt even worth using
Some people hate the chin and asymmetrical button layout.
Needs a reboot every 3 days to keep things speedy.
Camera can’t capture night or motion shots
Phone may slow down when storage fills up.Look and Feel...
SD slot is only accessible by removing cover. This Hero has Flash
But how about a camera with a flash? Optional haptic feedback is about as subtle as a 6.5 earthquake. Lack of image stabilization produces videos reminiscent of Cloverfield. 340 x 280 vide
The smartphone can occasionally be sluggish. Flash content didnt always work from the Web browser. Apps must still be downloaded to the phones internal memory. Media syncing software would nice

No flash
Sluggish operation
Confusing USB connectivity
Short battery life (4 hrs. talk)

Abstract: HTC släpper sin andra Androidlur i Sverige och verkar ha lyssnat på kritiken från Magic. Förändringarna är få men definitivt till det bättre. Dessutom satsar de rejält mot sociala medier med det nya gränssnittet Sense. ...

HTC Sense er knall, kjører applikasjoner i bakgrunn, lekker, multitouch, alt av funksjonalitet
Litt treg til tider, skuffende video, høy pris
HTC har har helt klart blitt en betydelig aktør i mobilmarkedet. Fra å være fokusert på teknologi er de nå også fokusert på brukeropplevelsen. Til tider har de faktisk ting å lære bort til brukergrensesnittets...
Design, Android Markets, Brukervennlig, 3,5 mm musikkplugg
Batterikapasitet, Av og til noe treg, Ikke norske menyer
I sum er vi godt fornøyd med HTC Hero. Vi tror likevel det er få eller ingen som ville ha byttet bort iPhone med Hero, og har du HTC Magic er det heller ingen grunn for å oppgradere til Hero. Både Magic og Hero har samme prosessor. Vi...

Abstract: HTC’s nye telefon, Hero, er baseret på Android-styresystemet fra Google. Desværre er der på den testmodel, vi har, en smule hakken en gang imellem, når softwaren er blevet brugt over længere tid. Det betyder i praksis, at man skal genstarte telefonen ...
Fantastisk trykfølsom skærm og fornyet brugergrænseflade. Jack-stik til dine hørebøffer. Mere alsidig, og du kan have flere programmer åbne samtidig. Download af gratis apps.
Ingen blitz. Sløv browserindlæsning. Kamera dårligt under mørke lysforhold.
Er du tilhænger af Google-guden og kan leve med et middelmådigt kamera, så skynd dig ud og køb en Android-mobil. ...
