5.0 out of 5 stars Great phone for the price, 3 July 2011
This review is from: HTC Wildfire S Sim Free Mobile Phone - Black (Wireless Phone Accessory)
For the price this is a great little phone. If it's your first go at Android then try one of these before you spend out �500+ on something bigger. It may be slower than others but performs perfectly well for general app use and Google maps. If you're one of these people that must use their phone for games then you may be disappointed. Lots of people moan about battery life and if they had done their research before buying they would know that you'd be lucky to get more than 1 day out of any modern day Smartphone, be it Android of Windows. However, with data services disabled you will get 3 or so days out of one charge with light usage. Yes, this defeats the point of having a Smartphone but if you don't want automatic refreshes, updates, email etc then turn on data as and when you need it.
In summary -
- Size is perfect, easily fits in to your pocket.
- Solid build from HTC
- Crystal clear screen, good colour
- Sync with MS Outlook, contacts and calendar only.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ideal for silver surfers, 7 Jun 2011
I didn't want a black phone so got the white one,I wanted a touch phone but as I am a pensioner I was a bit apprehensive of going down this road from a keypad phone, so I did my research first and came up with the New HTC Wildfire S.It is just the most simple phone to use all my concerns of a touch phone went right out the window.
Everything is quick and easy to set up.The touch screen took a bit of getting use to but with practice a couple of hours later I was up and running.
My only gripe is making a phonecall when you go to make a call scroll into the phone book touch on the contact u want it goes straight to ring so if you have touched the wrong contact by mistake it rings them, might have been better if a stylus was incorporated into the phone for thick fingered users like me and also when you end the call you have to watch that you don't ring the person back.
The battery is good for a small phone and it feels comfortable in your hand.

5.0 out of 5 stars HT Wildfire S, 4 Jun 2011

What do I know about smart phones absolutely nothing! However I acquired some cash so decided to buy myself one. What a joy it is! My grandson was very impressed that I would want to spend my money in this way. I was surprised that no instructions came with it; well apart from how to put in the battery and sim card. I went onto the HTC site and lo and behold I realised why! There are nearly 200 pages of instructions. I have downloaded a few and got to grips with texting, emailing, finding my way about my local area, etc. etc. Of course you have to be light fingered and not press too hard on the screen but when you have that under your belt you are away. As I am surfing the net a lot the battery life isn't that great. You must take heed not to have animated screen savers and turn off anything you do not use and this helps. I got a good deal with Tescos for �10 a month so I can surf to my hearts content. Doubt I will get through 5000 texts. I think this phone really is for... Read more
