HTC Tattoo

Android Operating System

The HTC Tattoo runs on the Android operating system, developed in part by Google. Downloadable applications, full customisation and support for Google sevices such as Google Maps, G-Mail and Google Search are all Possible with Android. The Tattoo runs the latest version of Android meaning that it dispenses with a hardware QWERTY keyboard in favour of an on screen one which helps to keep size and weight down.

HTC Sense

Make the Tattoo your own with HTC Sense, letting you personalise and create a phone just right for you. The HTC Tattoo lets you add widgets to your homescreen, also letting you customise the size and style, flick through multiple windows, called scenes (which are also fully customisable), so all your favourites are at your fingertips and search for contacts, Twitter Tweets, Emails and much more. HTC Sense also brings all your contacts together in one place. When you view people in your contacts list you see the different ways to get in touch; Email, social networking updates such as Facebook and even what photos your friends have recently uploaded.

Touchscreen

The HTC Tattoo features a crystal clear 2.8 inch TFT touchscreen display. Use your fingers to navigate through menus; once you've used a touchscreen phone you'll never look back! The Tattoo even has a built in accelerometer which automatically rotates the screen to match how the phone is held.

3G

The Tattoo, formerly known as the Click, features 3G which stands for third generation, and the system is the third generation in the evolution of mobile networks, after analogue and GSM. 3G offers high speed data transfers and the ability to make video calls between compatible mobile phones.

HSDPA

HSDPA offers a similar benefit to a 3G network that GPRS offered to the GSM networks. It offers a higher speed data transfer with a compatible handset. HSDPA is often referred to as Mobile Broadband.

Wi-Fi

With Wi-Fi you can use your HTC phone to connect to a local wireless network (W-LAN) to connect to the internet. This offers a cheap (sometimes free) method of connecting to the net to download emails, files, or check on your favourite website.

GPS

With built in GPS you can use the Tattoo to locate your position, plan your journey, and as a general SatNav device, when used in conjunction with compatible mapping software.

Web Browser

With a built in Web Browser you can access internet sites directly from your handset. Check the latest scores, look up train times, get a weather report, or find the answer to the question in the pub quiz. With the inbuilt web browser you have the power of the internet with you, wherever you are.

3.15 Megapixel Camera

Thanks to a built in 3.15 megapixel camera, with auto focus, the HTC Android phone takes quality pictures that you will want to share with your friends. Store them in your phone, email them to friends or upload them to your blog or favourite photo sharing site such as Flickr.

Bluetooth v2.0

Thanks to Bluetooth wireless technology, data transmission is quick and easy. And what's more, with Bluetooth wireless printing, sending images or documents to a compatible printer is child's play wherever you are, allowing you to produce quality printouts effortlessly.

Music Player

With a built in music player, you can carry your tunes with you, in your pocket, and listen to them when you want. Most digital formats are recognised on the phone, including MP3 and AAC.
