Piterko

The phone was purchased in the autumn of 2010 (Play subscription) and served for about 2-2.5 years, and it would have continued to serve if not for the rapidly developing technology. The physical buttons and the trackball in this version performed very well; it was comfortable and pleasant to use and made navigation much easier. The software, or rather the interface, was always a strong advantage of HTC from those years, as it looked nice and operated relatively well. The display reproduced the colors of the photos well, and the photos themselves were also of good quality. From a long-term perspective, the memory was a downside (although it was quite a lot at that time): rapidly increasing application sizes and the inability to uninstall some of them (e.g., Twitter) meant that over time, some necessary ones had to be abandoned. That is simply how progress occurs. Overall, I have good memories of the phone, and the change (to another HTC) was dictated more by software limitations than by the wear and tear of the equipment. And the review itself is rather sentimental.
