Hey guys,
I just wrote about the difference between HTC Desire vs. Samsung Fascinate.
http://www.careace.net/2010/06/29/comparison-of-htc-desire-vs-samsung-fascinate/I figured if you wanna take a look at it, you probably wanna try to get your HTC Desire fanboy(or girl) to read this on a respectable look'in site too. (I hope it is respectable. lol
) Hopefully we can win them to our side!
But there is totally nothing special or secret about it. It is just a direct comment on a spec-by-spec look at these two. I don't own both of them (but I do play with *one* of them often;) ).
I did find someone who does own both and shared his ideas on another forum (I copied the rest on the bottom of the article):
-----
NZtechfreak from Androidforums shared his opinion regarding Samsung Fascinate:
The other pros for the Fascinate are:
-better sound quality
-better music player, has EQ
-better video capabilities
-better video capture and camera (low light conditions that require a flash aside of course)
-1.8GB of app installation space
-loudspeaker is orders of magnitude better than the Desire’s
-TV Out via cable, DLNA
-better for high quality gaming
-WiFi tether
-better bluetooth implementation (my heart rate monitor wouldn’t work with the Desire etc etc)
-significantly better battery life
-supports landscape rotation in both directions
-better apps package with paid licenses for Asphalt, VLingo, Aldiko EBook reader, Layar, Thinkfree Office with editing
Pros for the Desire:
-better UI, especially widgets support
-for me slightly better general speed of operation (opening apps etc, and my Samsung is not on branded firmware, so this is an apples with apples comparison)
-multicolour LED notification light
-hardware keys
-HTC email app better than Samsungs
-better browser with flashlite 4.0 (although I prefer browsing on the Fascinate because of the larger screen)
-better initial setup (a lot better)
ps. So happy about Android 2.2 on all Samsung Fascinate phones, baby!
