    Superb phone! The Hero is a rewarding handset that just does everything you need is a smooth and well integrated way.

    I get through a phone a fortnight as I get bored with them but this is the first time in over a year I've had the urge to stick with a handset.

    There is occasional lag, it's only slight (on my handset at least) and really not an issue. Of course HTC could always disable multi-tasking and strip out lots of functionality but then it would as basic as an iPhone is. It lags slightly because it does MUCH MORE than the iPhone and does it better. Don't get me wrong, it's far from perfect, but I've not felt so positive about a phone in a long time.

    For reference the previous phones I've owned include LG Arena, N97, Viewty, iPhone 3g, HTC Magic and HD and many, many more.

              Has anybody else read the reviews on the Hero? Granted, they called it the best android phone yet, but they also called it laggy, and it's multimedia capabilities aren't ranked so great either. It looks like i'll be waiting for some real world reviews by some of you early adopters..http://www.HTC-Hero.com is a good place for discussion.

                      Anonymous, 04 Sep 2009Hi all, I want to try an Android mobile phone, the quest... moreI currently have the HTC touch Pro2 and I also want to try Android system. For me I prefer to get new versions where the missing stuff like video calling, bluetooth transfers and other features are there.
                      I also wating for the Android with Nvidia, and that is will be my next set. For now WM on the pro2 is more than enough especially of the presence of the slide out keyboard.

                        Hi all,
                        I want to try an Android mobile phone,
                        the question here;
                        should i buy the HTC Hero ?
                        or do you think its better that i buy the HTC Dream and install the Hero ROM on it?
                        btw; i prefere a QWERTY keyboard, and the price doesnt matter for me..
                        thanks.

                              Kev, 03 Sep 2009Is android OS on Hero better than WM 6.5? Which is better ... morethe sense UI 'skin' used for the android OS here on the HTC Hero is quite well designed IMO. further tweaking in the future and it well be the most widely adopted android skin. windows mobile is arguably the most laggy OS, it wasn't originally designed for touchscreen when it was out like a decade ago and although there's been many developments and 'skins' created by different manufacturers like touchflo from htc and touchwiz by samsung it just doesn't feel as smooth as others. of course hardware capabilities does havea role to play and i'm glad to see that they've introduced larger context menus in 6.5 to answer the touchscreen trend. market share wise Android is still trying to catch up with WinMo which has had a huge head start.

                                    The TFT capacitive touchscreen is responsive to you people??

                                    most good touch screen phone comes with TFT capacitive touchscreen.
