HTC Chacha Review UK

To review the HTC ChaCha we have to acknowledge that this little smartphone is in a league of its own. In comparison to the rest of its family of UK available touchscreen smartphones it is very first to adopt the full Blackberry-like Qwerty keyboard and landscape oriented screen. With its crisp 2.4 inch, 480×320 pixel, fully interactive touchscreen, the ChaCha lets you choose how you want interact with it. The HTC ChaCha, also known as the facebook phone, is all about facebook hence the full keyboard which we are certain will improve the quality of social networking. In addition to the full keyboard is the much talked about facebook button, which while doing this HTC ChaCha Review, we discovered, not only launches facebook but if your listening to music and the song you love comes on, press the facebook button and let your friends know what song you are loving. Or perhaps you’ve just taken an awesome pic with the HTC ChaCha’s 5 MP camera, using this little blue button you can share it with the world instantly. This very suitably called ‘facebook phone’ has the social network rooted deep throughout the entire device displaying your Facebook notifications, twitter tweets and emails all inside one mailbox. Your phones calendar will also be enriched with event’s from the social network while your address book will show the Facebook Chat status of your friends and when a friend calls you, it will tell you if it is their birthday. Thanks to Android, the ChaCha is also massively customisable. The screen can be packed with cool widgets, allowing you to do everything from gaze at your photos to update your Facebook status without ever opening an app.

HTC Chacha Comparison UK

The HTC ChaCha, is the worlds first Facebook phone, and therefore there is no phone we can really compare it to other than the worlds second Facebook phone; the HTC Salsa. Both weighing in equally at 120g, the feature that sets the two devices apart is the screen size. The HTC ChaCha has a 2.6 inch touch display, making room for the keyboard while the HTC Salsa on the other hand offers the more substantial 3.4 inch, screen but doesn’t have a keyboard. Both the ChaCha and the Salsa have a 1250 mAh Li-Ion battery, but the one on the Salsa is larger, allowing for more talk time. On 3G the battery on the Salsa is said have up to 8 hours talk time while the ChaCha lasts 7 hours. The HTC ChaCha and Salsa both run on the same 600MHz Qualcomm MSM7227 processor loaded with 512 MB of memory. The devices can both have their internal memory expanded to 32GB with microSD cards. Both of these phones are powered by Android 2.3 Gingerbread allowing them full access to the Android Markets wide selection of applications, enhancing usage experience even further. In terms of Multimedia functionalities both phones are capable of playing the usual audio and video formats but The Chacha doesn’t come with a radio receiver while the Salsa does. Both the ChaCha and Salsa come with a 5-megapixel front camera and VGA back cameras which allows for video calling. In fact both of these phones are so similar, that it really is quite difficult to decide which is the best. Although the Salsa comes with a radio receiver, longer battery life and larger screen, essentially, this facebook phone is all about social networking so without a keyboard, the Salsa in comparison to the Chacha doesn’t cut it, but at the end of the day its just down to personal preference.

HTC Chacha Pay Monthly UK

The HTC ChaCha is available on a variety of different pay monthly UK deals with networks such as Vodafone, Orange, O2 and TMobile. We think the cheapest pay monthly UK deals are about £20-£25 per month on a 24 contract, however the cheapest inst always the best. It is important to select a pay monthly deal that includes the right amount of minutes and texts to suit your requirements because it can be expensive to exceed your monthly tariff.
