HTC Rhyme Specs

It's good.. Sometimes, while browsing the Internet on it's own browser or other browser it goes very slow that looks like you've opened hundreds of apps in background... but overall, it's very nice!~!

First of all, I would like to say that I really wasn't planning on getting a phone like this considering I am a guy and it's purple. But since my HTC Incredible 2's antenna broke, I didn't have a choice but to use my cousins old phone. But I did get a case so you can't really tell that it is purple.

Surprisingly, I think that the phone has way better built quality and a better screen than the HTC Incredible 2. It is made out of metal, glass, and some soft touch rubbery plastic on the back. It's super comfortable in the hands.

I do wish this phone did have 4G LTE but it was before it's time.

The camera on the phone is pretty AMAZING considering that it is only a 5mp shooter. The camera has many different effects and shooting modes and even shoots in 720P HD video. The front facing camera isn't that great but you can still see details unlike my Incredible 2.

The UI of the phone has changed from the original Sense UI. The bottom bar is now customized for the Rhyme and has 2 buttons instead of a bar with 3 buttons on it. The personalize button is missing. But the rest of the phone works great and noting has really changed for me. (In fact the lock screen is better than older HTCs).

The battery is non-removal which really sucks because on the rare occasion when the phone freezes, I can't take out the battery but I just have to wait about 3 minutes (it's only happened to me once or twice). If the battery somehow breaks on me, then I will have to buy a new phone which sucks because you can't replace the battery.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this phone. It's really good considering it is about 2 years old. In fact, it's faster than my dads iPhone 4s.

I lost my Thunderbolt about 6-7 months ago. When we attempted to replace the phone (through Verizon) we were required to fill out multiple forms in order to prove that we didn't steal the first phone. After waiting 5 months for them to back down my parents bought me a Rhyme used for $75. The truth is that when I got this phone I was upset that it was smaller, but it is still a fully capable smartphone. My Thunderbolt would always fall out of my pocket, but the rhyme is too small for that. I truly can't wait until I can get a new Thunderbolt. (for 2 reasons) 1) The Rhyme is designed for a person on the go (or for a girl), but that's not me. 2) I was accustomed to the large screen of the Thunderbolt, I think that the size of the phones varies drastically because most people like a small phone or a big phone, and I like the large style of phone. That said the screen is very bright and I have much less glare than from my Thunderbolt, the battery last all day, and the internet speed is fast. This phone is not for me, but I can clearly see that for people who do not want a large bulky phone that the Rhyme is a big phone shrunk down them.
