HTC’s mammoth in the smartphone market – the HTC Titan sports a 4.7-inch display, which makes the phone stand apart from the rest. So, what else does the phone sport to survive the tough competition out there? Let’s find out in this review.

HTC Titan Smartphone Features

Display

The 4.7-inch display of HTC Titan is big enough to overshadow the likes the iPhone, Galaxy SII and even its own family member the HTC Sensation. Not only is the size of the display bigger but it also is much brighter than the rest as it harnesses super LCD technology. Also, WVGA resolution makes the screen render crisp and detailed output thereby carving a niche for itself. The screen makes reading stuffs, watching videos and playing games a real pleasure.

Design

Do not get carried over by the name Titan because measuring 130.6×70.63×9.9mm, the HTC Titan is quite handy and easily slides into a jeans pocket. The body of HTC Titan is all about the display which means there is not enough space for the bezel and kickstand.

The back portion houses the 8MP camera sporting dual-LED and Flash. HTC Titan also sports a 1.3MP front-facing camera facilitating video chat. The back covers the SIM slot and the battery. HTC Titan disappoints in not sporting microSD card slot which means users will have to do with the existing memory. HTC Titan renders a solid feel and the chassis does not feel that flexible.

Internals

Not only do the design and look go with the name but also the hardware makes the name of the phone appropriate. HTC Titan runs on a Qualcomm MSM8255 processor with a clock speed of 1.5GHz for the simple reason that being based on Windows Phone 7.5, it could not have supported a dual-core processor. Nevertheless, the processor handles games very well with instant loading and an improved performance. The phone sports 512MB RAM. HTC Titan noticeable performs well than most other 2010 HTC smartphones based on WP7 such as the HTC Trophy.

Connectivity

HTC Titan supports the latest and the best connectivity options such as DLNA, which can be called an inclusion after losing a battle to LG smartphones. However, lovers of wired connection can take advantage of HDMI socket to connect to external HDTV or display. In addition, HTC Titan supports WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS and HSDPA. NFC support would have been welcome.

Storage

 Users have to satiate themselves with 16GB built-in storage as the phone does not sport a microSD slot for memory expansion.

Mango OS 

Officially named as Windows Phone 7.5, the WP Mango renders multi-tasking options and supports a number of other features including WiFi hotspots. HTC has used advanced apps so as to augment the overall experience on WP Mango on HTC Titan.
