| HTC Legend
Anyone have a HTC Legend? http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_legend-3141.php
Gf's planning to get it but would like to know if its a good phone or not..
Pro's/Con's anyone?.
Most likely getting it from phonemore btw.. (never bought from them so are they trustworthy?)

She would probably much prefer the Aria.
EDIT: I didn't realize there was a US version of the Legend. There is no such thing for the Aria, so if she wants 3G, then Legend it is.

Thanks, ya I took note of that but given my GF isnt really that techy or doesnt really surf the web much... Dont think that will be much of a difference for her.. (she wont use the net enough to care how fast or slow it is)
Also I believe she prefers the Legend look over the Aria.

i have the legend, think it's a great phone
the only bad thing is the limited space for apps, but you can easily change that by downloading apps onto a microSD.

Has she seen the Aria in person? It's a sexy phone

girls like the unibody, just like macbook air.
I personally prefer the look of white Hero > Legend regardless the spec.

My friend just got one of these last week, and I am surprised at how crappy it is. It is REALLY slow (angry birds is extremely choppy) and sucks battery like you won't believe. The screen is nice though. His gf's $200 LG is better.
Let's hope things improve with the 2.2 update...

Wow good point there.
Thing is, his gf's cheap LG has the same processor. What it doesn't have is a bloated UI.

Ahh. Yeah. HTC sense bogs things down a bit but I find it makes things very friendly. 2.2 will probably be faster but I don't think by much. Posted via RS Mobile |

2.2 came out yesterday, and it's definitely smoother overall. Angry Birds is still choppy as hell though.
As good as Sense is, LauncherPro is much lighter, and has most of the same good widgets.
