HTC ChaCha review – Mini-screen, mini HTC Sense, maxi socializing!

HTC ChaCha Android phone

HTC ChaCha is a pleasant surprise, basically exceeding our expectations in all areas. Who would have thought that a Facebook phone is more than that? Presented for the first time at the Mobile World Congress 2011 in February, HTC ChaCha coupled with the Salsa phone embodied a whole new category of phones, focused on socialization through Facebook.
One thing is certain: if you have a Facebook account, there’s no phone out there that’s better than the ChaCha to always keep you up to date with the statuses and photos. The Facebook button under the QWERTY keyboard will allow you to post on the Wall those website links you visit, songs that you are playing or a photo you just did with the 5 megapixel camera. The 2.6 inch touch screen is very useful in tandem with the QWERTY keyboard that boasts 4 rows and you must know that this model runs Android 2.3 with the HTC Sense interface, a customized version for this display. Some applications will appear more “weird” because of the great diagonal, but we can overcome this.
You should be happy to find out that the HTC ChaCha is a phone everyone can use, regarding the size of their hands and fingers. One thing unique to this terminal is that the physical keyboard is 10% bigger than rival phones, so all the buttons are easy to press and hold for all fingers. It should be noted that this new HTC smartphone measures 10.7 mm in thickness, weighs 120 grams and has 512 MB ​​ROM / RAM and all the connectivity options that you could possibly want. Recently, the 600 MHz processor has been upgraded to 800 MHz for a better capacity to run Sense and Android. The battery life is about 7 hours (3G talk time) and 660 hours in standby.
