To begin this battle of the Android, we will first look at what similarity, both the Nexus One and the HTC Desire have with each other. Together the Google android nexus one and also HTC Desire phone have an identical structure to the cases, despite the fact that the surface might be different a little. The two handsets use a 3.7-inch WVGA AMOLED display screens, 1GHz Snapdragon CPUs plus 5-mega pixel cameras with an LED flash.. You’ll find minute discrepancies with the particular measurements as well as the weight of the two devices.

The User Interface
HTC Desire phone has trumped Nexus One in one extremely important area of a handset , and that the software. Just as with the Hero, the company has included the extremely popular Sense UI. The interface offers seamless integration of your contacts from all of your various lists and address books – be they Skype, Twitter, your phone book, Facebook – and knits them together for an apparently more intelligent experience.

FM Radio
Both the HTC Desire and the Google Nexus One use a built-in Broadcom BCM4329 Wi-Fi/FM chips insider of theeir respective devices. While neither seems wholly activated at this moment in time, the HTC Desire Android phone does have FM radio, which is missing on the Nexus one – at least until Google decides to repair it using a software update which could or could not come about. A chip also offers ability for both handsets to transmit FM and support 802.11n Wi Fi for better range of connection. As it stands though, neither have these two features enabled.

Noise Cancellation Functionality
Curious this, for some reason HTC have have chucked the noise cancellation feature found on the Google nexus one. So, if you do loads of calling on the street or in a loud environment, you might prefer to go for the Nexus one.

Enter Text Via Voice
It’s a great characteristic of of the Nexus one that Google has allowed end users to be capable of type into any field wherever on the device by talking to it. That is obviously for the most part vital in the America where Google Maps for Navigation is also enabled. Sadly, voice access is missing on the Desire, so its finger employment only.

Extra Features
With the dual declaration in the upgrade to HTC Sense, there’s a a small number of added features to the Desire. To start with, a ringer volume on the phone automatically lowers after you’ve picked the phone up. Second, the ringer mutes altogether at any time you flip the mobile phone over and face down and, finally, there’s an automatic back up system which stores your bookmarks, MMS/SMS and passwords on your microSD card. What’s more, Sense brings extra widget windows and also a very enjoyable looking “helicopter mode” that  lets them to appear then vanish again on the pinch of the screen.

Mouse and Pointer Control
HTC has cast off a trackball pointer control found both within the Nexus One and almost all the preceding Android mobile phones made by Taiwanese smart phone specialists. If the change for an optical pad in the Desire is a good thing or a bad one might be up to you to make your mind up. The exact same change is made by BlackBerry with the most recent edition in the ever admired Blackberry Bold 2.

Trackballs can sometimes amass bits of foreign matter that  gets rolled up within the device and begin to bring about annoyance as well as malfunction. As well, numerous genuinely ghastly optical pads to choose from and, with such a tiny area to get your thumb on, you might rather you’d gone for the more physical mechanical variety in the Nexus one.

Clickable Buttons
As well as the optical pad, the four Android soft keys on the bezel of the the Google android nexus one have moved onto the framework below on the HTC Desire handset and become firm, clickable buttons instead. Doubtless one might dispute the pros and cons of each but, when all is said and done, it is a style choice and not anything else.

Overall Thoughts On The Two
Overall, there is not but to choose between the two handsets, as they are both very good phones and welcome additions to the Android family.. If you already have a Google nexus one, then don’t be too upset over the release of the Desire.

Also, we could be able to add the Sense UI and the FM radio features to the Google Nexus One, that will probably make up a little of the ground on the Desire handset. Then again, should you not want to wait a few months for the Nexus One, then the HTC Desire mobile phone is unquestionably the phone of selection at this juncture. So, while you are making up your find, take a look at our Google Nexus One Contracts page and the HTC Desire Contracts page to see what is on other with these two Android phones.
