HTC Salsa hands-on
The HTC Salsa is the Taiwanese company's answer to producing their own Facebook phone. With a 3.4-inch, 480 x 320 capacitive touchscreen and 600MHz Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset, it not only rivals the INQ Cloud Touch in function but also in specs. We can see there will be a face-off at dawn.

HTC Salsa – tight Facebook integration in a small form factor review
Overall, the HTC Salsa is a good phone for those who use Facebook a lot and if it's priced below $100, will also be a great choice for people who are just buying their first smartphone – they can always just press a button and ask other people how to do something if they don't know :-).

HTC Salsa Review
The HTC Salsa offers decent power, impressive battery life and a good screen, as well as handy Facebook features. If you're after a Facebook-focused phone, we reckon the Salsa's a better bet than the HTC ChaCha and INQ Cloud Touch.

The phone performs well but without the finesse of a more expensive HTC like the Sensation, and its design and build quality is questionable in places. But I do think that it has a place of its own in the industry because of the very cool facebook integration and I think I would go as far as buying...

HTC Salsa Review
Here we are at the end of another exciting review, I have to say that during my time with the Salsa there have been some good moments and some annoying ones but my overall opinion is that it is simply a revisited handset with the addition of a facebook button.

"Like" it or not
It takes two to tango, HTC seem to think. The HTC Salsa joins the ChaCha in a bid to treat young Android users to as much Facebook as they can handle. The little blue button makes an appearance again, this time in a more familiar context.

The HTC Salsa is the 3.4-inch touchscreen version of HTC's two Facebook phones, and I have to say I recommend it only to the most hardcore of Facebook addicts. If you're interested in the other ‘Facebook Phone', check out our HTC ChaCha review , if not, hit the break to get into the Salsa review.
Pros:
- Notification LED
- Dedicated Facebook button
- Dedicated camera button
Cons:
- 480×320 resolution screen
- Occasional lag and crashing apps
- Flash Lite
- Basic hardware specs – 800mhz & 512mb ram
- Minimal space for app data
