The HTC Radar 4G has a top-notch build, sporting a stylish, all-white aluminum design that is comfortable to hold. The display is crisp, with a front-facing camera that enables video calls, HD camcorder with autofocus along with a five mega pixel camera. Unfortunately, the video sharing process is painstaking and recording could use improvement.

Call quality is excellent, with a loud speakerphone and effective contact integration. Wi-Fi calling is unavailable, unlike most Windows Phones. Despite having a powerful internal battery, this may be discouraging to those who prefer a detachable battery. The device has 8GB storage without an SD card port, implying that the memory is not expandable.

First-time buyers who are upgrading or those seeking alternatives to Android and iOS will appreciate Windows Phone Mango’s (7.5) slick responsiveness interface, consistently smooth performance, clear text, fantastic keyboard, and a great browser. Hackers and more advanced users, however, may be less fond of the limited skinning and customization options.
