Sprint Hero – Ugly Gadget

Ugly Sprint Hero:

I’m not going to go so far as to call the OS on the device ugly, it actually looks pretty snazzy. Android looks rather beefy, special and sweet. But I wouldn’t buy this phone for two reasons: 1) It has no physical keyboard. 2) It’s ugly.

Sprint redesigned the HTC Hero to make it look like those old, piece of junk, COMPAQ windows mobile Pocket PC’s. Don’t you agree? I’m talking about the bottom inch of the device, to be specific. Funny thing is that I talked some hardcore smack on the Palm Pre when it first came out, but now it’s sitting by me as I type this and it’s my favorite phone of all time. I still think it’s a little bit Ugly, but It’s an amazing device. I blogged about my first impressions of my Palm Pre here if you want to see how I changed my tune from my Palm Pre smack talk post.
