With the new HTC Incredible S, it’s very much in the name, as this is a mobile phone that not only performs superbly, but also packs a host of features that any phone would be proud to boast. Add to the equation that this phone is one of the best available and indeed you have a pretty amazing phone.
HTC seems to have taken the middle ground when it comes to screen size on the model. Some of their previous releases, like the Desire HD, had screens that pushed the limits of what’s practical in a mobile phone, so this slightly smaller screen at just 4 inches makes the screen look big but stay on the pocket. It’s not just the size that impresses, but the quality too, with a massive 480 x 800 pixel resolution capable of displaying alongside a whopping 6 million colours. Thanks to multi-touch support, the device allows pinching and zooming, while the all-important accelerometer performs all auto-rotate functions. The fact that the screen has been reduced a bit in terms of size results in an improvement in battery life, especially since the phone already has a large capacity battery. Therefore, users can expect performance results of around 6 hours of talk time and, if they decide not to use the phone, more than two weeks in standby mode. In terms of design, the reason the Incredible S stands out is its simplicity, with HTC ditching the metallic look for a finish that’s completely matte black, right down to the brand logo.
The HTC Incredible S will be popular with consumers not only because of its high specifications, but also because it runs on the popular Android operating system. This opens up a host of download opportunities for the consumer, as well as the multi-home screen system many of us know and love. HTC has implemented its own Sense UI, which simplifies many of the procedures on this model, like offering a simple overview of home screens and sharing all your social media accounts in one place. If you want to use the web on your phone then location shouldn’t be an issue for you as Incredible not only has WiFi for when you have access to a personal network, but with 3G, EDGE and GPRS you have the perfect phone for mobile devices.

HTC is looking to build on the success established with the likes of the Desire and Legend with this new phone, and early signs are that it will prove equally popular thanks to a modern design and the quality of features we’ve come to expect from HTC.
