The HTC Desire S is the evolution of HTC Desire launched as a “twin” of Google Nexus One and has garnered a deserved reputation. The terminal has the same capacitive screen of 3.7 inches diagonal and 800×480 pixels, but HTC has replaced the physical buttons and touch sensors, making it even more similar to Nexus One

HTC Desire S Android 2.3 is manufactured as a single block of aluminum, giving it a more solid and durable. This block is cut in the back, above, to accommodate the camera and leave space for the antennas, and down to allow access to the battery and SIM and microSD cards (up to 32 GB).

With this configuration we obtained a score of 1,149 in Quadrant test stand, located well above the Samsung Galaxy S but still somewhat below the Nexus One Froyo in excess of 1,250 points. This may be due to the layer of HTC Sense or increased consumption of resources of the version 2.3 of Android, since both models share the processor, and Desire S has more memory.
