Can anyone confirm whether the Froyo update has speech to text feature? The mic icon on the keyboard?

            The desire boasts everything in the right place but beware of the battery life android is power hungry and the battery will last less than two days with minimal use any more and you may be charging daily or more. very disappointing for a device in its class

                I have a Desire and my brother bougth an N8, Like they say the desire is a little faster but the Hardware on the N8 is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better makes my HTC looks cheap also i noticed the Audio Quality on the Nokia is awesome compared to my desire the camera overall is awesome the only thing is the OS i like Android but Symbian is more powerful if you know how to use it im going to steal the n8 to play with it and i think im moving to the nokia is just superb hardware vs a cool eye candy OS that really is not that important since my bros can even hook to the plasma vi Hdmi and has fm transmiter and a lot of goodies that have me thinking, also he has signal on the elevator and i dont!! :/

                    DesireX, 16 Nov 2010What Android version are you using?I am using 2.2

                    Battery is very weak on this phone. I fully charged it and then played games on it for about 30-45mins and afterwards I had 55% battery left!

                    Any tips would be appreciated.

                    What drains the battery the most? I don't have my emails coming coming through automatically. My weather updates every 3hours.

                    Even with the poor battery this is still my favourite phone compared to the N8 and all other phones I have owned and used.

                          nm, 16 Nov 2010Users please compare n8 with htc desire (not desire hd) on... moreI have used the N8 for 5 days and then sent it back. I then got a desire and the difference is massive!

                          The Desire is much faster and smoother in all aspects, looks better grapgically, does more and can get more apps.

                          The only thing I noticed in the N8's favour was that the N8 has a better battery and better GPRS signal (oh and a better camera on the N8 -altho 'I prefer' the desire's as it has a video light and you can also just use the LED light as a torch)

                          Video recording on the Desire tho is no where near as good as the N8, infact my N95 did better video.

                            mnmn, 15 Nov 2010this phone or samsung galaxy 3???not the same class. Galaxy 3 is a mid-level one, Desire is kind of highend.
                            but if you want a real good device, you wont be disappointed w the desire.

                                  Battery life could be better (get about 1.5 - 2 days) but there is a lot going on with this phone. That said once your used to how your going to use it the phone can be tweaked and played with to get slightly longer.
