Comparisons Featuring HTC Aria
Short Review
- The HTC Aria features a compact design with dimensions of 103.8 x 57.7 x 11.7 mm and a weight of 115 grams, making it easy to handle.
- Its 3.2-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 180 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM7227 Snapdragon S1 chipset with a 600 MHz ARM 11 CPU and 512MB of RAM, suitable for light usage but limited for multitasking.
- The rear camera is 5 MP with autofocus, capable of capturing decent images, though it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- The battery capacity is 1200 mAh, providing basic longevity without fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 2.1 (Eclair) with HTC's Sense UI, the software experience is dated but functional for its time.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.1, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is equipped with a microUSB 2.0 port and a standard headphone jack.
- Overall, the HTC Aria is a straightforward smartphone with essential features, suitable for users seeking simplicity.
- Its build quality and design reflect the standards of 2010, prioritizing portability and basic functionality.
