Unlock HTC Vivid
Nevertheless the Vivid isn’t relying on just one bullet point to make its purchase case – the dual-core Gingerbread phone has some high-end specs and a huge 4.5-inch qHD screen. Does the high-end featureset and a fancy new network connection result in the Vivid a worthy buy?
The very first thing you observe upon collecting the Vivid is its heft. The thick plastic and metal construction causes it to be tip the scales at 6.24 ounces, about 30% heavier than phones of the identical general dimensions from Motorola and Samsung. The load gives the phone a definite high-end feel, but what it also gives is, well, weight. It’s your responsibility whether that’s an essential statistic, but after carrying the Vivid around in my pocket during their visit, I had been definitely wanting a lighter phone.
The device has a distinctly angular style that’s accented by a full metal backplate. Slide it off and you’ll find a Sim slot using a fancy new AT&T 4G LTE mini-SIM, and the battery, which has to be removed to access the empty Micro sd card slot. The slim and unfortunately weak back speaker sits on top of the 8 megapixel rear camera, which can be associated with a sharp 1.3 megapixel front shooter. The left side from the phone holds a regular MicroUSB port, the proper a silver volume rocker and also the top the power button, all without error or complaint. HTC’s standard capacitive buttons reside below the screen.
