#htc rhyme review

The HTC Desire is officially out and the new HTC Rhyme has just replaced it. Check out our full review of the HTC Rhyme after the jump. At first sight, the HTC Rhyme isn't really that far off from the HTC Desire S in terms of design and form factor (I suggest reading the Desire S review here). The HTC Rhyme comes with a number of accessories out of the box -- a large charging dock, Beats-looking earphones, white leather puch and a Light-up Charm Indicator (which wasn't included in our review unit here). The white Beats Tour-looking earphones compliments the light blue color of the HTC Rhyme (though many people I talked to was looking forward to the plum-colored variant) and though I am not much of an earphones guy, it adds the cool factor and premium packaging of the HTC Rhyme. The HTC Rhyme and Sensation XL also comes with a native book reader called My Shelf (probably comes with HTC Sense 3.5 since both handsets have it). As for performance, the single-core processor of the HTC Rhyme does the job fairly good and though it doesn't have the bragging rights of a dual-core chip like the Sensation, the handset handles most of the common tasks efficiently.
