The best of both worlds
The best of both worldsWhat’s more important to you — a super responsive touch screen that lets you surf the web with a mere touch or a dedicated keyboard for quickly shooting off texts or emails? With the HTC Desire Z you get both. The 3.7 inch touch screen is perfect for browsing the web, checking your friends’ latest updates, or catching up on email. Ready to do some serious messaging? Pop open the keyboard — the keys are nicely spaced and raised for fast comfortable typing.

A phone you can’t lose (well, not easily anyways)
A phone you can’t loseYou’re likely to become very attached to your HTC Desire Z. That’s why we had the idea to bring the HTC Sense experience online. Can’t find your phone? Use HTC Sense.com to show you that it’s under your sleeping cat. Worried you’ll miss something because you left it at home today? Use HTC Sense.com to forward your calls to another number. Frantic about personal data on your phone that’s been lost or stolen? Log into HTC Sense.com to quickly lock and wipe it remotely.

5 things that make the HTC Desire Z unique
-
We put a lot of love in every single product we create, all to make sure that every feature, from the smallest to the biggest, is designed around you and your needs.
-
1All your email accounts in one inbox
If you juggle more than one email account, you’ll love how you can now see all your accounts in a single inbox that automatically color codes each email by account. And don’t worry about clutter - handy email filters sort them by groups, importance, or content.
-
2See more of the web with Flash®
What’s the point of only being able to see part of the web? With built-in Adobe® Flash® Player support on your HTC Desire Z, no websites are out-of-bounds. And why wait for pages to load when you can view them in separate windows? A pinch and a tap lets you jump from one page to the next.
-
3Hear all about it
It’s frustrating when you don’t have the same content at home, in the office and when you’re away from both. Problem sorted with the new News app on the HTC Desire Z which syncs with Google Reader. And wouldn’t it be great if all it took to subscribe to a site’s feed - and add it to all your readers - was just a simple tap on your HTC Desire Z web browser? Well, it is great!

4Capturing the moment
Until recently if you wanted quality images and video you had to carry both a camera and your phone. Not anymore. We’ve added HD video recording and a 5MP, flash camera with built-in effects (it’s like being able to swap lenses and add filters on the fly). And we’ve made it a snap to share to YouTube or to your big screen TV via DLNA.

- The actual available internal phone storage may differ depending on the software configuration of your phone.
- Battery times (talk time, standby time, and more) are subject to network and phone usage.
- A Standby time specification ("specification") is an industry standard that is only intended to allow comparison of different mobile phones under the same circumstances. Power consumption in a standby state is strongly dependent on factors including but not limited to network, settings, location, movement, signal strength and cell traffic . Comparisons of different mobile phones using such a specification can therefore only be done in a controlled laboratory environment. When using any mobile phone in real life circumstances for which the mobile phone is intended, the standby time could be considerably lower and will be strongly dependent on the factors as mentioned above.
- Network bands in regions other than Europe and Asia Pacific may be different, depending on the mobile operator and your location. Please check with your mobile operator.
- Actual data speed is dependent on the network or Wi-Fi® signal strength.
Note: Specifications are subject to change without prior notice.
