    Wouldn't it be easier to put a screen protector on it. That way you wouldn't waste your money by breaking it or scratching your screen

      Point being is that they boast about how tough the screen is and then you throw it in your pocket and its all torn up.
      I see videos of a guy stabbing at the screen with a biro for demonstration on the tough screen, lets see him do one throwing some lose change at it.that's all.

        I know it's a pain in the arse my wife has the same problem with her sgs 2 but I carry my sgs around in my pocket at work all day in dust and mess and it is unmarked. It seems some gorilla glass is tougher than others. I have seen a live demonstration with a guy taking his keys and trying to scratch the screen and was under the impression at the time that is not the glass they are selling to us punters

          If someone sells you a bullet proof vest, you don't go around looking for people to shoot you.

          Ever since my first touch screen phone, some 6 years ago, I've always used screen protectors. Just because it's designed to survive doesn't mean a bit of TLC won't be appreciated.

              The Desire S is a lot smaller and looks better than the DHD. I think they both have the same processor and ram n stuff but DHDs got a 8mp camera whereas the Desire S had a 5mp one. The screen on the Desire S is sharper than the DHD. Thats all i know

                missus just got the desire s, more ram than my desire, but same processor. It has 2.3 android, and it has unique wifi signal to phone when you get no signal in the house.. ~~~~ing neat trick that is.

                  Now, I'm not trashing the HTC Desire S or HD. But there are better phones out there.

                  Don't get me wrong, HTC make some good heavy weight phones with amazing build quality. It's just the market is moving a lot faster now with 2Ghz dual core processors & more system RAM.

                  The HTC Sensation is top of their range with a 1.2Ghz dual core processor, 8MP full 1080 HD recording, 4.3" screen.

                  It still suffers badly on battery life & the screen has problems in direct sunlight even if it does have a massive pixel count. But it also stays in the shadows of the Samsung Galaxy S2 when it comes to shear speed.

                    the missus has a slightly bigger battery too. I agree stuff is getting better, but battery tech ain keeping up.
