The latest smartphone out of the HTC camp is of course the Android 2.2 Froyo packing HTC Desire HD along with the HTC Desire Z handset, and one would think that The HTC Desire HD would easily knock the original HTC Desire off the top slot of a 20 best phones buyer’s guide.
However according to an article over on Tech Radar the HTC Desire HD has failed to kick the HTC Desire from its number one slot in the Tech Radar 20 best mobile phones in the world buyer’s guide, and only manages to come in at number three sitting behind the iPhone 4 in the number two slot.
Apparently the reason why the HTC Desire HD didn’t push the original HTC Desire off the top position to claim it for itself was that reviewers have found that although the original handset suffered from battery issues, so does the HTC Desire HD but more so due to the Desire HD’s 4.3 inch touch screen that drains the battery harder.
So the top handsets according to Tech Radar are the HTC Desire, the iPhone 4, the HTC Desire HD in third position. The LG Optimus 7 Windows Phone 7 device came in fifth followed by the HTC HD7 and Samsung Omnia 7 and the Orange San Francisco handset polled eighth.
So do you agree with Tech Radar’s finding and that the HTC Desire out beats the HTC Desire HD and the iPhone 4, or do you have another opinion on which smartphone should command that top slot?
