Unfortunately like almost every HTC phone, the battery is horrible on this. It only has a 1230 mah.

Sure, but it's still a good value for what you pay especially considering it's on AT&T. The monthly payments for 2 years is what's really gonna cost ya though.

As for the battery, we'll see. It'll probably be the usual average run time depending on how much of the HSPA+ speeds you use instead of something like EDGE. A better battery would probably be preferred but most likely battery life was sacrificed for...design, unibody. Theories, someone else would know better. Now the thought goes to the fact that iPhone is pretty slim and has a good battery. But keep in mind HTC had to keep the battery -replaceable.-

Shame bettery technology advancement is going slow.

Does this phone have a front facing cam?

I was waiting for this phone but now that I saw a few vids, I'd rather wait for the atrix or whatever comes later.
I'm afraid that the rubbery cover on the bottom will deform by time. The battery cover is a pain to remove and if you force it then it will get loose and chipped, the design won't let you change the battery for a larger one, you can't change the metal back cover. The battery life is low and with that display i'd be surprised if it would last a day. The headphone jack is on the edge, hopefully it won't be a problem, but it's hard to tell as att or htc was too cheap to include a headset. (unboxing vid). The display is large but I would rather have a smaller display w/ larger resolution. The cam is sticking out and looks like the phone will sit on it if you put it down so it's a magnet for prints and scratches. Not sure what size mem card att will give you but att lately takes out everything from the boxes so I doubt it will be 16gb. Since the atrix comes with 16gb, better display, better battery, more memory and looks better I think I skip this one. Unless.... they overprice the atrix, in that case the htc is the bang for the buck.... but that still won't change the battery life and hopeless design...

Another belting handset from HTC.. But, when will someone let them have amoled screens again. SLCD is simply no use on a screen this size.

Do you know if this phone has the option of landscape texting? I read a review that said that the home screen doesn't do landscape, and it made me wonder about the texting/emailing feature.
