We finish out our week with a look at the HTC Wildfire, a new model recently released out at Alltel Wireless that’ll give you a lot of utility, but not without cost. It’s not the best phone you’ll find, but it is one of the most useful I’ve seen in a...

Priced at Rs. 16,590, the Wildfire is reasonably priced. It also incorporates a very good sensitive capacitive touch screen with a very good QWERTY, something few touch screen phones have. If the poor display resolution and contrast do not deter, we r...
The Wildfire is good handset for those who aren’t looking for the very best touch-screen device around. It occupies a slot that is a couple of rungs lower than the top slew of touch devices, but offers a lot of features for the price. Interfacing is pr...

The HTC Wildfire is a stylish and nice-looking mobile phone. The design of Wildfire resembles the Desire, but the Wildfire has a smaller size. The dimension of the HTC Wildfire compiles 106.8 mm x 60.4 mm x 12 mm. The HTC Wildfire has a capacitive touc...
The fact is that this device – as I can remember one of the few smartphones from the company HTC, which is not overvalued at the start, that is, the price / quality ratio for Wildfire excellent even for the “white” option at the beginning of sales. It...

Design-wise, the Wildfire is compact and curvy with dimensions measuring 12.19 x 60.4 x 106.75mm. It looks like a pint-sized version of the HTC Desire, which is no bad thing. At 118g including battery, the Wildfire is very lightweight. Even though it...
Brilliant Android 2.1 OS and HTC Sense UI, responsive touchscreen, small and lightweight, good quality camera, customisable options galore.
Slow processor, no HD recording.

HTC is on sabbatical from its high-end line with the . There is nothing really wild or fiery in the specs of this mid-end Android handset. Compared to most of the company's Android offerings, it naturally has smaller screen with paltry resolution, and...

The HTC Wildfire's display seems to be the main sacrifice on the altar of affordability, along with the fairly timid processor. We think there should be a law forbidding phones with great design to be underpowered and paired to low-res screens. Joking...

The HTC Wildfire is targeted at a trendier user group on a budget, very much similar and yet different from its more advanced sibling, the HTC Desire. One should spot the obvious difference in its screen size, which packs up to 240 x 320 pixels on its...

You can't help we guess, but love the sound of it. Wildfire is a strong and beautiful name. The thing is it raises no less expectation than names like Legend or Hero. But we're talking entirely different leagues here. So a simple Desire mini would've...

If phones could make babies, then this HTC Wildfire would indubitably be the love child of the Desire and Nexus One. But of course, the humdrum reality is that 'tis just an Android 2.1 replacement for the entry-level Tattoo -- same 528MHz Qualcomm MSM7225...
