HTC Aria

Why would AT&T udate the Froyo but not the Captivate which is a far better phone the Frickin Aria

So why did HTC did take 8 some odd months to update it to Froyo when the Evo got it 2 months after release?

Within an ATT plan, does google maps with navigation truly work on this phone, or did ATT disable the google navigation feature due to competition with its' own paid version of ATT Navigation?
Thanks!

In the wrap up you say "it may not be the most powerful phone" in android's line-up, does this mean its not using the snapdragon processor, and if not what is it running? BTW this is probably the best written review I have read on this site for a wile nice job 🙂

I just fired this phone up today as our store phone and I have to say I am extremley impressed with it. It is a very small, sleek and slim phone. It fits very nicely in the pocket and a couple of times I forgot it was in there which is a great thing I thought. The screen is very responsive, no missed letters or double letters with texting which I have always had an issue with. The signal strength has stayed good all day around 4 bars which is rare for ATT around my area. I hope that the phone isn't overexagerating its capabilities on the signal strength. The interface is smooth and extremley easy to navigate and understand. The speaker is a bit of a problem it does easily become distoreted on phone calls or music. The problem on the music c...

I have played with this phone and liked it alot i think people read too much into specs and dont even give a phone a chance but this little phone packs a heavy punch and i recommend it to people who isnt into big screens..... 🙂

Verizon has the HTC Droid Incredible,
Sprint has the HTC Evo 4G,
Even T-Mobile has the HTC HD2.

ALL have 1Ghz Snapdragon processors.
ALL have higher resolution displays.

AT&T is not serving their customers with this phone. I guess Apple has them by their privates, or else we would at least be seeing something closer to the Nexus One as an alternative to the iPhone.

$200.00 is pretty steep for something that is slower than a Nexus One, is littered with the terrible HTC Sense UI, won't ship with Android 2.2, and only comes with a 2GB Memory Card.

When are you going to get it through your head that 1) not everyone wants an iPhone and 2) Apple doesn't care anything about you. Because you will not provide top of the line phones to compete with the iPhone, you are in big trouble when Apple finally starts selling to another carrier. You should be worrying about your customers, not Apple. Offer a Samsung Galaxy S that isn't "dumbed down" for AT&T. Offer a cousin to the EVO or Incredible (assuming they get the screen problems resolved). Quit trying to make us settle for tier 2 phones!!!!!

I am in now way an AT&T fan. However, it is good to see them adding more Android powered devices to their line up. Their consumers will now be able to experience what is becoming popular mainstream. Choice is always best.

How come they release a 1Ghz Snapdragon processor on the other carriers, but only 700 MHz on AT&T. Granted it runs on the awesome Android OS, AT&T probably wanted to dumb down the phones to avoid upsetting SApple.

they shoulda had this phone with the unl data plan when it was availible anyways

Thank God! The Backflip is such an awful device, about time I have a good Android to sell on AT&T!
