HTC DROID ERIS

HTC DROID ERIS

The HTC DROID ERIS became popular as the second Android phone for Verizon Wireless, although it got launched at the same time. Straight out of the box, it is equipped with version 1.5 of the operating system, but also has the social-centric Sense UI on top. It sports all the hardware features one would expect, including a 3.2-inch screen, 528MHz processor and 288 MB RAM.
