When you take a rock solid company like HTC, builder of some of the finest smartphones in existence, add in the latest HTC Sense 3.0, and lay it on a plush bed of Android 2.3 Gingerbread goodness, awesome things are bound to happen. Our top 5 HTC phone countdown is almost not fair. One could argue our #1 phone over our #4 phone, our #3 phone over our #5 phone, our…well, you get the picture. But that's the mark of a company that is headed in the right direction. There are no definitive borders between each model you're about to see, but we do know that all five performed at the top of their game, and certainly deserve their respective places at the top of the smartphone totem pole.
#5 – HTC Droid Incredible 2
Are you ready for an Incredible piece of smartphone machinery? Well, the HTC Droid Incredible 2 may not be the most incredible phone on the market, compared to our top picks, but it proved itself as a worthy upgrade from last year, thanks to its 4-inch SLCD screen, 1GHz Snapdragon processor, front-facing camera, and improved W-Fi. The Droid Incredible 2 retained the same lovable size and a revamped version of HTC Sense. Although the phone shipped with Android 2.2, a 2.3 upgrade should be rolling around the corner soon. Best of all, the phone gave us 720p HD video recording to play with the big guns. If you're in 3G territory and want an Android phone that's the size of an iPhone, then the HTC Droid Incredible 2 might be an Incredible choice to make. Full Review »#4 – HTC Inspire 4G
When the Inspire 4G came out, we thought it was quite the inspiring phone. And why is that? Well, the HTC Inspire 4G for AT&T is only $100 with a two-year contract! Yes, this is quite a bargain, considering that less capable feature phones like the Pantech Crossover can be found for a similar price. The HTC Inspire 4G gave us Android 2.2, a 4.2-inch WVGA screen, 1GHz Snapdragon processor, and full Google suite. Plus, we got some love from AT&T's HSPA+ network, and the phone was the first to support HTC cloud service for Sense. One of the Inspire's most Inspiring features was its 8-megapixel camera that produced some impressive images. Overall, you can't go wrong for a Benjamin. Full Review »#3 – HTC Thunderbolt
The HTC Thunderbolt was the phone that struck after a cloudy expanse of hype. Verizon's first 4G LTE phone whipcraked out of the starting gates with a fierce set of specs, including an obscene 40GB of storage, front-facing camera with skype, kickstand, and giant 4.3-inch WVGA screen. The Thunderbolt rivaled a flash of lightning with its 1GHz Snapdragon processor with Adreno 205 GPU, and the phone now has Android 2.3 for enhanced performance. Add in Verizon's 4G LTE network, which is the quickest 4G network out there, and the HTC Thunderbolt is one mother of a phone. Full Review »#2 – HTC Sensation 4G
The HTC Sensation 4G is part of a Sensational new wave of HTC phones that are being churned slowly in a cauldron of quality. The HTC Sensation 4G stepped out of nowhere with its beautiful qHD screen, 1.2GHz dual-core Snapdragon processor with Adreno 220 GPU, 768MB of RAM, latest HTC Sense 3.0, and 1080p HD video recording. This is pure smartphone power on T-Mobile's HSPA+ network. Not only did the HTC Sensation fly through every task, but its 1500mAh battery pack was a decent performer and it featured one of the best cameras on the market. The phone also featured an unconventionally refreshing design. If you're looking for pure hardware, software, and design sex, then the HTC Sensation 4G is about as hot as you can get by today's standards. Full Review » #5 – HTC EVO 3D
Yes, we know, the HTC EVO 3D is debatable, but heed our reasoning. The HTC EVO 3D is basically a Sensation 4G with a bit more memory (12GB out of the box), larger battery pack (1730mAh), and 3D recording capability. Although the EVO 3D did not give us a matching battery performance, and the 3D recording was a bit gimmicky, we found that 3D games and movies were quite the mutt's nuts. The HTC EVO 3D's 1.2GHz dual-core Snapdragon processor and 1GB of RAM gave us the fastest performance on a phone to date, and its ability to switch from 2D camera action to 3D via the switch was nifty. Overall, the HTC EVO 3D is about as good as you can get in the smartphone world at the moment, but that will probably change next month, given the erratic nature of the mobile industry.
