These two handsets that HTC has come up with are worth an appreciation
. Both the handsets have many comparative points. HTC Desire came out before Wildfire was born. If you love HTC products then its pretty sure that you are going to face a big confusion.
These two smart phones are best of their kind. As Desire was the first one to come out it had a large trail following it. But being a little high in price it was not approachable to all. Hence the company took out the solution, and launched a cheaper version of Desire which they named as Wildfire. Both the handsets had many points of comparison. The amazing evolution of Desire made Wildfire more desirable.
Qualcomm processor is used by both of them. But yes the power of both are different. Wildfire has a MSM 7225 528 chip.So the Wildfire runs at a speed of 528 MHz. On the other hand Desire has a Snapdragon processor running at a speed of 1GHz.
Both the handsets use Eclair version 2.1 which is an ANDROID operating system. Desire has a AMOLED capacitive touch screen that measures 3.7 inches Whereas the Wildfire includes a 3.2 inch TFT capacitive touch screen. The screen of Desire is certainly better as it is larger than that of Wildfire. But the Wildfire bring out great display of content displayed on the screen.
