HTC Surround Review

Nov 10 2010, 8:16am CST | by Susan McGlaun

Digital Trends published a HTC Surround Review.

Quote from review: "As with any phone featuring a new operating system, one must judge the engine separately from the vessel it moves. In the case of the HTC Surround, the second Windows Mobile 7 phone coming from AT&T sometime in the next couple of weeks, the operating system makes a far more positive impression than the phone. The HTC Surround's conceit is its slide-up horizontal speaker with a "surround enhancement" button to activate Dolby or SRS surround sound, and a rear kickstand. Whether you consider this addendum useful depends wholly on how frequently you plan on watching video on its 3.8-inch screen. Since it's hard to imagine using the speakers on a daily basis, it's also hard to imagine the added weight of the slide being worth the trouble. Unfortunately, the Surround suffers several additional problems, some hardware, some OS."
