Thanks, I think I'll be having that

I like how the photo was taken with an iPhone.

I think I just had a crisis looking at that!

Hmm, not liking the lack of hard keys on the front

Personally, I like it without the hard keys on the front. Though, I wouldn't mind if they did something similar to what they did with the HD2

All those buttons succeed in doing is making it look like a Nokia. The normal Desire is far better looking.

as ugly as an iphone 4 with lame case on... >?!? /giggles.

A poncy designer phone that gets a free chav-ifying band.

The iPhone 4 isn't really 'poncy', its actually pretty good.

That said, its overpriced and I cant believe anyone would have willingly paid £25 for a bumper for one, its bad enough getting one free.

So the new HD upgrade is a new phone and not just an OS update for the existing desire?

Well they just released 720p video recording for the Desire, if that's what you mean. The "Desire HD" is a rumored new phone with a bigger screen and better camera.

^^ yep that's what I meant. Still waiting for the 2.2 upgrade to hit the wife's phone.

As she stole my Desire I need to wait until something better comes along so I can upgrade

This might be it, although I'd prefer a hardware keyboard

I know what I'm getting when I can upgrade starting from the end of September.

Not a massive fan of the back but overall the phone looks nice. Looks like a bizarre hodge podge of the Evo and Wildfire.

Adrianr · 9 Aug 2010 at 11:29

Actually looks much nicer than in the 'leak' photo. If a little patchwork at the back. Still hate those buttons.

Looks good, any idea on any differences in spec or will it likely be similar to the Desire ... would be a perfect phone to dive into android with!

video just made me want it more
