    The HTC Wizard: Mobile Genius - Opening the box


    (Page 2 of 4 )

    We'll start with the very first thing you'll see when you buy the phone -- the box. But this product comes in more than just a box. With slide out drawers and a "hidden" space for the charger, even the packaging is intelligent!

    Included with the phone is a clip-on belt case, a set of (rather bad) in-ear headphones, a stylus, the wall charger, the USB sync cable, documentation and application CDs. Please note: the accessories and documentation may differ from operator to operator. For the record I purchased a UK O2 package. You may also find that you have some additional software pre-installed on the phone; I for example had the O2 active UI installed, which is a kind of overlay for the today screen that adds certain "features" to the phone. At first it appeared a little tricky to remove, but after some basic Googling, it turned out to be relatively simple.

    On the outside, the phone looks impeccable. It boasts a smooth rounded matt silver and black shell, ergonomic and stylish button design and a generous six by four and a half centimeter 64K color QVGA screen (with a resolution of 320 by 240 pixels). For the record, it's a transflective, touch sensitive LCD-TFT screen. Every single person I've shown the phone to has said the same thing: "Wow, is that a phone?!"
