HTC Status Review by Sydney

The Status may be a mid-range Android smartphone, but in a lot of ways, it doesn't act like one. HTC's customizations for the small display are excellent, the keyboard is one of the best I've used, and the dedicated Facebook button is extremely easy and useful.
Pros:
  • Excellent keyboard
  • Facebook button is very handy
  • customized version of HTC Sense works very well on the small display
  • good build quality
  • decent battery life
Cons:
  • Inconsistent 3G data speeds
