HTC ChaCha Review
You won't find a better phone for social networking but the smaller screen is a bit of a letdown.
Pros:
- Facebook fans have plenty to please them
- with one-touch access for adding music
- photos
- updates
- videos and webpages
Cons:
- Because so much is happening behind the scenes
- the ChaCha had to be charged pretty regularly
