Hardy, easy to use and perfect for a ludite like me.
This is my first smartphone. I know it's one the lower end HTCs, but it does everything that I need it to do, plus extra things I couldn't do with my old phone. Basic things like texting and calling and checking Facebook and Instagram is really all I need. I've downloaded some apps and even some free books. It's really easy to transfer music from my computer to the phone and vice versa from my phone eg. of pictures I've taken, to my computer or any music I've loaded from friend's computers. I'm a bit of a ludite when it comes to technology, so it was surprising how easy it was for me to work out. Any questions I had, I could find on the net. The manual is at the HTC website. I've had it for 4 months or so and there are still some things I'm not good at, but that's to do with my abilities and not the phone. Mostly getting used to the touch screen. The battery life can be a little short, especially if I use it to surf the net - which can also take some time working if the wi-fi is slow or if I check Facebook too often. I do have to recharge it every night. The volume of the ringer could be a tad louder too. For me the phone is perfect, not too many whizz bang features to confuse me and easy to use. I also like that it's very hardy. I haven't as yet dropped it, but I feel that it could withstand a knocking about. I also like that it's not an Iphone, which I feel has too many strings attached to their use. I hope that the above is helpful. Enjoy and Peace.
