We got the Sony-Ericsson Xperia Arc, LG Optimus Black and HTC Desire S as the latest entrants in this category. The Desire S seemed a bit weak in both departments considering the earlier HTC Desire was doing really good. We got our hands on the new HTC Desire S over the week-end and I'm kind of divided how to place it among all the other handsets released by HTC in the Philippines. The Desire S borrowed several key features from other previous handsets of HTC. The aluminum unibody construction was obviously derived from the HTC Legend, although the Desire S is slightly toned down by a couple of plastic covers at the back panel. The Desire S also feels like an enlarged HTC Wildfire, with its slight chin-like protrusion at the bottom end and the incorporation of touch panels minus the optical trackpad. Actually, just by the looks of it, the Desire S is closer to the Wildfire than the original Desire. The S-LCD screen on the Desire S holds its ground pretty well and is comparable to AMOLED.
