Be yourself. That's the idea behind the HTC Hero™, a phone that follows your lead. Time to work? Time to play? Time to put down your phone and think? The HTC Hero helps you be you.
- Set the Scene for every time and place. It's like having a different phone for every different thing you do.
- Focus on people, not accounts. Look at all the messages from any one person—their emails, calls, texts, status updates, everything—all in one place.
- Keep your friends close. Stay in touch on Facebook®, Google Talk™, and Flickr®—and use HTC Peep™ to keep up with tweets.
- Find yourself, no matter where you find yourself. The minute your plane lands, your phone automatically updates the time and weather.
- App out your phone. Get one-touch access to thousands of apps on the Android Market™.

“Overall, I found the HTC Hero to be the best Android phone I've tested, and a worthy competitor to the iPhone, the BlackBerry and the Pre.”
“Sprint's HTC Hero May Be Your Scene In Smart Phones”. The Wall Street Journal, October 1, 2009

“...the HTC Hero is the most feature-packed Google Android device to date, bringing some notable improvements and a highly customizable interface.”

“The Hero is Android perfected and it is an excellent phone. I would recommend it over the Palm Pre and, dare I say it, something like the iPhone 3G. $180 isn’t too much to pay for the best Android phone on the market.”

“I love it! I don't get to say that very often, but the Sprint version of the HTC Hero really stands out as one of the best smartphones of 2009 and so it's won our Editor's Choice award. Google's Android itself is very compelling and both HTC and Sprint's customizations send it over the top.”
Mobile Tech Review, September 17, 2009

“Thanks to the major customizations by HTC and powerful integrated Sprint services, the HTC Hero is the most compelling Google Android device available and if you are a Sprint customer I would be jumping all over this device.”
