HTC is well known all around the world but unfortunately it is not known by many in Pakistan where the cell phone and telecom industry is at its peak. Recently High Tech Computer Corporation (HTC) has introduced a new smartphone in the market called “HTC Wildfire”.

The features and specs of HTC Wildfire are really impressive. Its size is 4.2 x 2.4 x 0.48 inches and its weight is 118 grams. It has a capacitive touch screen with pinch –to-zoom capability and a 3.2 inches display. The display resolution is 240 x 320 QVGA. It works on Android 2.1 platform with HTC sense. It has a 5 mega pixel camera and has a Micro SD card slot which supports memory card up to 32GB. It supports almost all the audio/video formats, its battery timing is also good and it provides the users an excellent browsing experience.

This new smartphone by HTC also has interesting functions and features like “next-generation caller ID” which provides the Facebook status and other updates about a caller, “Friends Stream” which allows the user to stay connected with friends on all the social networking websites at one time and the  “mind its manners” feature where it acts intelligently.

The specs of HTC Wildfire are not that much different from Apple iPhone 4. Its size is almost the same, camera is same, social networking features are interesting, it is touch screen and has smart sensors and it battery timing is almost the same. With having so many features like the iPhone 4 can HTC’s Wildfire give some competition to Apple iPhone 4 in Pakistan? It would be difficult for HTC Wildfire to beat Apple iPhone 4 in Pakistan because Pakistani’s always buy cell phones manufactured by Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson and now Apple. The price of HTC Wildfire would be around PKR 40,000/- and we know the price of iPhone 4 would be way higher than that. HTC Wildfire therefore has some competitive edge over Apple iPhone 4 to capture Pakistan’s cell phone market.
