HTC has come up with two of the most exciting phones of Mobile World Congress -- the HTC Legend and the HTC Desire. But for those of us with nothing but a linty sweet in our pockets, there's also HTC's new budget phone, the HTC Smart.
Instead of Android or Windows, the Sense runs Qualcomm's Brew platform, which has been given a facelift with HTC's Sense user interface. That means Smart users get widgets and home screens that look like the pricier Legend, but with a much simpler and more basic user interface. Y'know, for kids.
The Smart is coming exclusively to O2 in the UK, and although prices haven't been confirmed, we expect it'll be even cheaper than the HTC Tattoo.
Like the Tattoo, the Smart has a resistive touchscreen, which means you'll need fingernails or the firm pressure of a finger to get it to work. We don't think it's as fast and responsive as the capacitive type on the Legend, but it does keep costs down.
There's 3.2Mbps HSPA to keep you connected, but no Wi-Fi on board. But with a standard 3.5mm headphone jack and room for a microSD memory card, HTC hasn't skimped too much on features.
