Comparisons Featuring HTC Hero CDMA
Short Review
- The HTC Hero CDMA features a compact design with dimensions of 113 x 56 x 14 mm and a weight of 128g, making it portable.
- Its 3.2-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels, providing decent clarity with a pixel density of approximately 180 ppi.
- Performance is powered by a Qualcomm MSM7200A chipset with a 528 MHz ARM 11 CPU and 288MB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking.
- The rear camera is a 5 MP unit with autofocus, capable of video recording, but lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- The battery capacity is 1500mAh, supporting basic usage without fast charging or wireless capabilities.
- Running on Android 2.1 (Eclair) with HTC's Sense UI, the software experience is user-friendly but dated.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, though it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device does not have water resistance and is available in a silver color.
- Overall, the HTC Hero CDMA offers basic smartphone functionality with limited performance and features for modern standards.
