The Status uses the same stock Android browser as is found on most Android devices. It renders full HTML web sites with aplomb. Most web sites load in short order, though I found the Status to be a hair slow from time to time. My only complaint is, again, the small screen. While it's not terrible for viewing web sites, the browsing experience would be much better with a larger display. In order to read content on PhoneScoop.com and other sites, I had to zoom in a bit so the text was legible.

Custmize

The Status is an HTC Sense phone. This means it can be adjusted in about a million different ways. Home screen panels can be completely customized, and the users can set up different profiles, themes, and other features to make the Status their own.
