HTC Desire Z v.s. Nokia E7 Posted: 13 Apr 2011 06:47 AM PDT Mobile phones with dual inputs, a full QWERTY keyboard-touchscreen is not as popular as phones that only use one input method. But recently several major vendors released products dual inputs, two of them Desire Z made ​​by HTC and Nokia E7. Yes, both phones are playing in the premium class so that should be interesting when we put them in the same ring to competed. Design Both Nokia and HTC have an excellent record when talking about the quality of materials and device design. This is also reflected in the two products that we compare this time. Both are made ​​of aluminum metal and a little plastic in some small parts plus a gorilla glass for the coating of the screen. Remarkably, almost all parts of both phones have anti-scratch. So you can say goodbye to all types of accessories like a soft protective case or a screen guard. In detail, E7 a true successor to the communicator does not look like its predecessor. If the previous series communicator you can access using the keyboard-side clamshell mechanism, to access the keyboard on the E7 user must shift the front of the phone. Need a bit more effort to do so, especially when the new E7 used. In an open slider, the screen and the keyboard E7 wide angle which makes typing more comfortable using a keyboard. In contrast to E7, the mechanisms used Desire Z is not a slider but a pop-out. Even so, to reveal the keyboard movement that used the same features, is to shift the front of the phone. This is where the origin of naming phone that the letter Z, when in the process of transition from when the keyboard is closed until completely open, the hinge that supports the movement to form a similar letter Z. Unfortunately for opening the keyboard, the the power required is too small, in other words DesireZ keyboard is too easy to open so that you may open it by accident and could have affected the age of flexible component that is located between two moving parts. In such cases, there should be a point of sufficient difficulty of shifting the front of the E7 and easy access to the keyboard on Desire Z slider mechanism or pop-out can be said is ideal. What is also different is that when the keyboard on Desire Z open, the screen and keyboard are aligned almost flat. See to the keyboard, both phones have a keyboard that is almost the same area, only if considered as a button, E7 has a size larger than Desire Z. For convenience, both keyboards on each phone quite balanced and even texture and sensation offered was identical. Screen Talking about the screen, E7 and Desire Z using different technologies. Nokia E7 apply AMOLED screen while on Desire Z choose Super LCD for display. On Nokia E7, the screen also been using the Nokia Clearback, meaning users could view the display on the screen clearly in any light conditions, even when under sunlight though. Not so when the same thing done on Desire Z, we can not see the screen properly due to reflection of sunlight. However, in normal lighting conditions, both the quality of the screen displays images in relatively equally well. In response to touch input, we feel that Nokia E7 is not responsive than Z Desire especially when sliding menu on the homescreen with sweeping movements of the screen. There is little delay in E7 in response to touch, although not to interfere because it differs only a split second than Desire Z. Operating Systems For some people, Symbian^3 is used in the E7 does not help to cure boredom on the Symbian operating system that has for too long controlled the market. Moreover, although not the first to use Symbian^3, the operating system running on this E7 are felt still has many lack. We counted fairly often experience lag, even freeze when explore the Nokia E7. On the E7 homescreen, there are 3 panels widgets and shortcuts by default. Almost all important elements in the E7 could be accessed through the homescreen, such as profiles, e-mail, gallery, contacts, music until the application of choice. Most recently, in E7 homescreen also decorated by Top Apps that seem to function as a complement Ovi Store. The difference is, through the Top Apps you can monitor the latest and greatest applications for Symbian^3 through the homescreen on the widget. Switching to the main menu. Not much has changed from Symbian^3 than their predecessors. The composition of the menu by default (grid) and can be transformed into the form of a list. Experience a more exciting course offered Desire Z that uses the Android version 2.2 plus attractive HTCSenseUl. At the homescreen, available 7 panel containing widgets and application shortcuts. All widgets are chosen by default HTC also feels comfortable enough and as needed. Users may simply add shortcuts to frequently used applications. In the main menu DesireZ all applications be installed on the phone and installed by the user is displayed in a grid array that extends downward.
