HTC Desire Reviews
Sleek and fast, the HTC Desire is not only U.S. Cellular's best Android device but the carrier's best smartphone to date. - Bonnie Cha
Android Central
The hardware isn't next-generation, but neither is it long in the tooth. What you're getting is a sleek, speedy phone with one of the newer versions of Android, and HTC's slick Sense UI. And for most people, that's going to be just fine. - Phil Nickinson
