Titan by Becoming-Borg (Dec, 2011)===. We love the screen size (i have small hands even, but this sceen size rocks).
Titan by BryanIsaack (Nov, 2012)The screen is stunning, the size is not to big neither to short, its amazing!
screen resolution
Titan by Mario--Fan-of-fantasy-and-science-fiction.-I-... (Apr, 2012)It has a lower resolution than the iPhone retina display, but after playing with it at store I found the larger size really helped me read text and images also looked great.
Titan by GSM Arena (Apr, 2012)You can adjust contrast, saturation and sharpness, change the white balance or exposure compensation and also add image effects.

processor
Titan by Ken (Dec, 2011)For those who are wondering about how that single core processor runs, the answer is fast.
Titan by GSM Arena (Nov, 2011)Speaking of which, quad-core processing isn’t far away while WP7 is still stuck on single core.
camera resolution
| 0 MP | 8 MP  | 20 MP |
Titan by c|net (Apr, 2012)On back of the phone are the ultrahigh-resolution 16-megapixel camera and dual-LED flash array.
Titan by The Verge (Oct, 2011)Well-lit shots can even be used at the full 8-megapixel resolution, although for best results you wouldn’t want to use anything more than half of that.
Performance Real world tests of HTC Titan
cpu speed
Titan by M.-ORTIZ (Nov, 2011)PROCESSOR SPEED: The snappier 1.5GHz Processor on the Titan compares favorably to other phones!
Titan by ECM2--ECM2It is a 4G phone and although it has a single-core processor it still runs faster or just as fast as phones with two-core processors.
browser benchmark
Titan by Ganesh-Manivannan--Ganesh (Nov, 2012)it is fast enough to respond while browsing with Internet Explorer.
Titan by TrustedReviews (Nov, 2011)It's intensely fast - not just in how quickly it responds to gestures on the super-responsive capacitive touchscreen, but in how fast menus are able to scroll and how snappily animated transitions are.
download speed
Titan by Bacchus (Nov, 2011)In Boston where we have HSPA+ speeds I should be seeing twice the download speeds that I am currently getting.
talk time
709 min
420 min
900 min
Titan by Biswa (Oct, 2011)Battery: The battery inside it is Li-Ion 1600 mAh which gives back up up to 360 h (2G) / Up to 460 h (3G) in stand by mode and Up to 11 h 50 min (2G) / Up to 6 h 50 min (3G) in talk time mode.
Titan by mjwood (Dec, 2012)Since the battery is embedded in the phone we even can not use a backup battery to be able to use the phone when it is needed most.

HTC Titan | Rated 100% by by M.-ORTIZ (Nov, 2011)Bottomline: the Titan has a large, beautiful screen which looks great compared to other phones.
Operating system
HTC Titan | Rated 100% by by Matt (Jan, 2012)Windows Phone 7 is silky smooth and a step up from Android that I used to have, in my opinion.
HTC Titan | Rated 100% by by Bacchus (Nov, 2011)Once you use this OS going back to iOS or Android is very hard and you will wonder to yourself how you ever got along without Windows Phone and it's brilliant Live Tiles and super smooth operation.
HTC Titan | Rated 100% by by Bacchus (Nov, 2011)Microsoft has really done a wonderful job keeping this OS lightning fast.
Type
HTC Titan | Rated 80% by by Richard-BrodieI had been using the Samsung Focus, a terrific Windows Phone, and decided to get the HTC Titan with its larger display and faster processor.
HTC Titan | Rated 100% by by Mario--Fan-of-fantasy-and-science-fiction.-I-... (Apr, 2012)I am not interested in Android for various reasons, so my choice was between iOS and Windows Phone 7.
HTC Titan | Rated 60% by by The Verge (Apr, 2012)At the moment it’s still in its infancy, and well behind iOS and Android in some key areas.
Apps
HTC Titan | Rated 80% by by Jerry-R.-Janes--jltuv (Nov, 2012)Love music from Xbox music and Netflix works great.
HTC Titan | Rated 80% by by TrustedReviews (Nov, 2011)If you can find it within yourself to embrace the Zune software as your main music and movies organiser, you'll be laughing - it even lets you sync over Wi-Fi - but we imagine many of you who have been using the same music software suite for years won't make the transition joyfully.
HTC Titan | Rated 80% by by htatc (Jan, 2012)Especially with manual email sync and background apps set to refresh only when opened.
Camera
HTC Titan | Rated 100% by by odman01 (Dec, 2011)camera: the camera is fast to take pictures and the colors are great.
HTC Titan | Rated 80% by by TrustedReviews (Nov, 2011)Just as important as image quality, when considering a smartphone camera, is how easy it take quick, in-focus snaps.
HTC Titan | Rated 100% by by BigShopper101--BS101 (Feb, 2012)The camera takes good pictures but can underperform in low light inspite of the dual flash.
