Description

HTC Amaze 4G appears to be focused in the photo and video taking side as it seemingly encompasses the camera-centric offerings we’ve seen already with the T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide. For starters, it features a backside illuminated 8-megapixel shooter with dual-LED flash in the rear, which is touted as offering zero shutter lag for those intent on snapping photos in the moment. Moreover, it packs 1080p video capture to complement its already boastful camera-centric offerings. Besides all of the camera stuff, the HTC Amaze 4G is powered by a 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 processor to deliver an amazing Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread experience. Not stopping there, it also features a 4.3” qHD Super LCD display, NFC capabilities, and 4G HSPA+ connectivity.

This device is also known as HTC Ruby

This phone won't disappoint you
Phone owned for more than a year

I've owned this phone since 1.5 years and it hasn't ever disappointed me, except at some instances I've covered below. Overall, it's a good phone for simple users, who are not looking for a phone for hard gaming, for heavy web browsing or that can carry a lot of apps simultaneously. The battery will kill your joy otherwise.

Good phone for the price
Phone owned for more than a year

Great phone for the two years I've had it. Runs great and really smooth. Camera takes amazing quality pictures, screen is nice and clear even though it's not 720p. Same internal components as Sensation XE and One S however I think it's the best out of the 3. Build quality is very good, black+silver model looks really nice, and battery is removable, which is good for spares because the battery life happens to be terrible. However the only bad thing about this phone. Could have asked for Beats Audio like its two brother phones but not worth ranting about.

HTC Amaze 4G is pretty sweet.
Phone owned for less than a month

The only con is the ugly back, battery life, and thickness. The case design seems over complicated, and seems to make a tiny amount of noise because of it and the phone not being 100% tight all the way around. Other then that top notch. Android > iphone,
HTC > Samsung.
