So what has changed in the HTC Incredible S compared to its predecessor, the HTC Incredible? We all know that most high-end smartphones have recently launched a screen larger than 4 inches as the Thunderbolt HTC and Motorola Atrix 4G. Well, for starters, the screen is larger than its predecessor. HTC Incredible S has a 4-inch Super LCD (480 x 800 resolution), while HTC Incredible has a 3.7 inch screen.
A larger screen means more display when browsing the Internet and watching movies, nice huh? Audio is as important as the visuals, so the HTC Incredible S comes with SRS WOW HD audio for virtual surround sound to complete your video.
As far as performance is concerned, its quite similar to Xperia Play where the two have a single core CPU 1 GHz Qualcomm CPU and Adreno 205. The processor is sufficient to use, but we were disappointed there is no dual-core processor to boast, as in the 2x LG and Motorola Optimus Droid Bionic.
HTC Incredible S comes with 8 megapixel camera with autofocus and dual LED flash and can record 720p video. The handset comes with 1.1 GB of internal storage but can be expanded via a microSD memory card that is up to 32 GB in size.
HTC Incredible S has a sleek design with compact form factor and slim. Most HTC phonesmobile are already built with quality materials and sleek smooth curves, so there is not much that can be improved. An improvement can be molded to the back where he traces the shape of the internal components. Another feature to mention is sophisticated is that function keys can be rotated depending on the orientation of the phone. Its sleek look is further enhanced with the lack of physical buttons on the front panel.
So what has not changed, then? The camera is very much the same as in Incredible. We were not disappointed as the 8-megapixel camera with dual LED flash is already quite high end spec, so that's good enough for now. As terms of the OS, the HTC Incredible S would be shipping with Android 2.2, but it was confirmed that improvements in Android 2.3 Gingerbread is on his way. The user interface is always the same, using the user interface HTC Sense.
Not a bad idea given that most people have indicated that the HTC custom skin the user interface provides an interface widget based slick and intuitive. All important imformation are already displayed on the screen without launching the application.
