In February this year, all five main 3G mobile operators in the UK revealed that they will be selling the HTC Desire. 3G.co.uk covered the release of the HTC Desire here - HTC Announce Two New HTC Sense SmartPhones.

The HTC Desire is virtually the same smartphone as the Google Nexus One and features the Android Éclair operating system and HTC Sense. If you’d like to see the HTC Desire close up then a video can be found here HTC Desire Close Up.

T-Mobile are quickest off the mark to confirm the HTC Desire’s pricing for monthly contracts and can be pre-ordered from the Carphone Warehouse here. Currently, there are no details for Pay As You Go or upgrades. It comes in one colour - Brown but more colours may be added.

The cheapest monthly contract over 24 months is £25 a month with a HTC Desire handset cost of £129.99. To reduce the handset cost to £49.99 take out a £35 deal. Don’t overlook adding mobile internet costings if you use the HTC Desire to its full potential.
