Like the HTC Dream, the Android Market application, which allows users to download new software applications from third-party developers, as well as providing publicly-viewable ratings and comments, is also included with the device. Indian versions of HTC Magic do not have Google apps and Android Market access.
There also are several non-official versions of Android released for the Magic, such as the CyanogenMod firmware, which offers enhanced performance and additional features.
The 3.2 Megapixel camera works wonders for picture happy phone fans and NEW with the HTC Magic is the introduction of Video Recording on the Android platform.
Another feature brand new to Android that is ushered in with the HTC Magic is the software keyboard. The Magic satisfies touchscreen lovers by being Android’s first touchscreen only device and therefore requires a software keyboard, something which was absent from the first Android phone. The HTC Magic also has a trackball for precision navigating when browsing the web and other applications.
The HTC Magic is destined to dazzle the mobile world by pulling off the type of tricks that only Android can… congratulations to HTC on coming in at #1 and #2 with the first Android phones on the market!
