HTC ChaCha
The ChaCha makes a strong first impression, but this hasn't stayed with us through the review process. HTC does a great job or redesigning its Sense UI for the small screen of the ChaCha, but we can't help wishing that it had just given us a bigger screen, instead.
Pros:
- Cute design with a premium finish
- Facebook is integrated well
Cons:
- Small screen is problematic
- Some apps appear sideways
- Average battery life and camera

HTC Status
The HTC Status is the country's first-ever "Facebook phone." Designed in collaboration with Facebook, the Status was first introduced at Mobile World Congress in the form of the HTC ChaCha .
Pros:
- The HTC Status is a well-made phone with a fantastic QWERTY keyboard and a slight bend to the body that makes texting that much easier
- The Facebook button works as advertised, and it could be a great asset to anyone who's a Facebook fanatic
Cons:
- The HTC Status has a tiny screen, with hard-to-read text and tedious scrolling
- It also has an odd landscape-mode screen as a default, which makes portrait-only apps rather problematic to use

HTC ChaCha Review
A true middleman, the HTC ChaCha sits right between the Samsung Galaxy Pro on the lower-end and the HTC Desire Z at the top. It's a QWERTY + touchscreen – a combination that was once rare.
Pros:
- Excellent QWERTY keypad and angled design makes typing more comfortable
- Well built
Cons:
- Battery life is a disappointment
- Facebook button doesn't do much

The well-spaced keys are laid out in four rows. The keyboard sports dedicated keys for frequently used punctuation marks. The arrow keys are unusually placed on the lower left side of the keyboard. A dedicated Facebook button is present below the fourth row.
Pros:
- Great Facebook integration
- Thoughtful UI
- Physical QWERTY keypad
- Sturdy build
Cons:
- Disappointing camera
- Lacklustre video player
- No equaliser
- Many apps are incompatible

HTC ChaCha
The second "Facebook phone" from HTC, and launched in tandem with the HTC Salsa, is the HTC ChaCha. It's strange name for a phone that is something of a strange Android device, offering a format we haven't seen much of from the Google OS.
Pros:
- Looks great
- thoughtful reworking of HTC Sense
- runs smoothly
Cons:
- Some keyboard issues
- battery life is pretty poor
- some regular apps leave you little space to see what you are doing

HTC ChaCha mobile phone review
" Androids for all!" seems to be HTC's motto these days as the Taiwanese artisans churn out a different model for seemingly every type of punter. This time it's the turn of the text fiends and Facebook friends, with a QWERTY keyboard and some nifty social networking enhancements.

HTC Status
The HTC Status is not my favorite phone. I guess I do not like the Facebook Easy Share option. I do not find it to be a practical reason to get this phone. This phone features a 5 MP camera. There is a back camera and a front camera. It comes with a touch screen and a keyboard.

HTC Chacha
If you like Facebook then you'll love the HTC Chacha. With a dedicated Facebook button and updated integration, using the social networking site has never been easier. Take photos of your mates on the 5 megapixel camera, and simply press the Facebook button to upload it straight away.
