HTC has once again changed their logo. From the previous change, HTC is now green in colour (remember the old logo colour scheme) instead of the plain grey. This time, they also changed their tagline. The HTC Innovation tagline is now HTC quietly brilliant. In line with this, HTC is also launching its YOU campaign worldwide.

HTC Hero

HTC Hero is our first phone to embody HTC Sense™ - an intuitive, seamless experience built upon three fundamental principles - make it mine, stay close, and discover the unexpected.

Make it Mine
With HTC Hero, personalization reaches a level never before possible. Rather than burying important content under layers of menus, the HTC Hero lets you put it at glance view, with a selection of widgets that can be placed right on the home screen. The widgets themselves can be personalized with a variety of designs and sizes that best match your personality.

With Scenes, a new profile feature, HTC Hero becomes multiple phones in one. Create and switch between Scenes that reflect different moments in your life. Your Hero becomes a weekend phone that helps you relax with your choice of tunes, catch up with your favorite friends and capture some memories with HTC Footprints™. And when you go on a trip, your phone becomes your personal guide and gives you instant access to local time, weather and maps.

Stay Close
Today, staying in touch with the people in your life means managing a variety of communication channels and applications ranging from phone calls and emails to Facebook updates. HTC Hero makes staying close as simple as turning to your friend and saying hello. When you view people, you see the different ways to get in touch, you also see all your interactions like emails sent to your personal and work accounts. You can even check for social network updates and event notices as well as see the latest pictures your friends uploaded to popular photo sharing sites.

Discover the Unexpected
Many of the most memorable moments in your life are experienced, not explained. Even basic functions like the dialer will pleasantly surprise you on the HTC Hero. You can find a person by dialing their phone number or simply by dialing the first few letters of their name.

With HTC Hero, you can look at things through different perspectives. Your inbox is not just a list of emails, but a catalog of conversations, a collection of notes flagged as important, and a document library of all your emails with attachments. Your Album is not just the photos saved on your phone. It is also a gateway to online collections of you and your friends on Facebook or Flickr.

Search just about anything, anywhere on your HTC Hero. The dedicated Search button combs through tweets in Twitter™, locates people in your contact list, finds emails in your inbox, searches through appointments in the calendar and very nearly finds needles in haystacks.

HTC Snap

We think a mobile phone should be freeing. It should simplify your life while keeping you connected to the people you care about. We designed the HTC Snap to do just that. Connect. Simplify. And look good in the process.

Life seems to be speeding up. And with more to organize and less time to do it, your phone should help prioritize the people who matter most to you. HTC Inner Circle keeps you connected to your exclusive few. With the touch of a button, e-mails from your “inner circle” rise to the top for quick access and streamlined communication.

In Sync. In Step. In Tune.
The HTC Snap offers a simple set of features, designed to keep your life running smoothly. Update your calendar, manage your contacts and emails and stay totally organized with the familiar experience of Windows Mobile. Even texting is faster than ever with the friendly QWERTY keyboard.

Smart Dialer lets you call people in whatever way you think, by either dialing their phone number or by dialing the first few letters of their name. The versatile keyboard lets you choose your favorite way to type and the predictive text completion helps you write faster than you can finish your thoughts.

Choose Your Connections
Take your inbox or inboxes with you wherever you go.

Simply put, with HTC Magic, you can always keep your personal and office emails flowing.

HTC Dream

At HTC, we are retiring the phrase “What can your mobile do?” We now ask “What do you want it to do?” The Android™ powered HTC Dream surpasses all conventional ideas about what a phone can be.

Point and Search
Feel the exhilarating power of search elevated to new heights. One-touch access to online search is just a start. Now, with the Barcode Scanner application available from the Android Market, you can simply scan a barcode and find out all you need to know about a product.

Immersive Maps
Our perception of maps has changed. Now, you can immerse yourself in the location and get to truly experience your destination. Explore fascinating cities like New York, Sydney or London … and take a virtual walk. With 360º panoramic scenes, Google Maps Street View* is the next step in the evolution of maps.

Android Market

Dazzle your friends with the large sensationally crisp 3.2” display. The touch-sensitive screen navigation is finger friendly and super intuitive. Slide the screen out of the way to expose the full five-row QWERTY keyboard. There is plenty of room between the raised keys to comfortably write emails, messages or even chat.

Equip yourself for a life filled with wonder, equip yourself with the HTC Dream.

HTC Touch Pro2

Business success depends on human interaction. You can often get more done with a quick phone call or a face to face meeting than you can in strings of emails. So why do all business phones seem to ignore the importance of calls? The Touch Pro2 treats your calls with as much care and attention as your messages.

Straight Talk™
HTC’s Straight Talk makes communication more natural, intuitive and effective. It is a way to seamlessly transit from email to a single or multi-party calls as well as a flawless means to complete conference bridge calls. The innovation is completed by dual microphone and speakers that turn your mobile into a professional quality speakerphone by the simple action of placing your phone face down on the table.

Speak Out When It Matters
Sometimes your opinion needs to be read, but sometimes it demands to be heard. The Touch Pro2 is equipped with a spacious keyboard that makes it breeze to get your message out. But when written word is not enough, it only takes one touch to respond to an email with the urgency of a phone call.

Get all the key stakeholders involved. If they were in on the email, then simply tap next to their image icon to get them in on the call. The HTC Touch Pro2 helps make it easy to share your ideas with all the people that matter.

Speakerphone Innovation
Nothing ruins a conference call faster than not being able to hear what is said, or make yourself heard. The HTC Touch Pro2 puts crystal-clear sound quality and voice reception at the core of its design. In fact, it is a palm-size professional conference phone with a loudspeaker and dedicated noise-cancelling microphone that delivers superior quality conference calls.

Conference Calls … Made Easy
Before today, the simple task of multi-party calling required the nimblest of maneuvering around your phone menus. Now, HTC Touch Pro2 introduces a new worry-free interface that makes multi-party calling as easy as tapping on your contacts.

That’s not all, even if you are traveling and need to join a conference bridge back in the home office … the Touch Pro2 will ensure that you connect without delay. Appointment reminders will conveniently cue up the phone number and PIN, ready for you to press … you won’t miss out on the latest strategy changes back in the HQ.

HTC Touch Diamond2

When you first see and start exploring the HTC Touch Diamond2, you’ll be struck by its brilliant looks and amazed by the intuitive controls.

A More Intimate Conversation
In today’s world, a conversation can take many forms, from voice to text … but there’s always a person on the other end. The HTC Touch Diamond2 arranges your conversations by people, not just by how you speak with them.
When looking at your contacts, you now can see a history of your conversation in whatever form it took place. It doesn’t matter if you get asked about a recent email while you are talking on the phone, or if you’re in a café reminiscing about a friend’s recent text – all your interactions are neatly laid out for viewing and follow-up in a tree of communication with that person.

Broaden Your Vision
One indisputable fact about smartphones … a big screen on a small phone is good. That’s why we’ve stretched the display on the Touch Diamond2 to its very limits, while still keeping the same compact size. Enjoy videos, websites, photos and any other images on the ultra sharp wide screen display. The high resolution screen will reveal every minute detail in the most vivid way.

Beautiful Yet Capable
These days, a phone is one of the few items that never leaves our side. It not only helps us keep connected with friends, business partners and world events, it also helps complement who we are. The Touch Diamond2 is your perfect companion in both the way it helps you keep in the loop and the way it accentuates your sense of style.
