If you're a Windows Phone fan seeking a relatively compact and solidly built handset, the HTC Radar could fit the bill. The optional dock may prove attractive, although that must be balanced by the inaccessible battery. We're still not convinced by the...

Limited storage capacity may limit its appeal and the camera could be better, but those aren’t major complaints for a smartphone at this cheaper end of the market and the HTC Radar is otherwise a good-value Windows Phone 7 device...

The debut of Windows Phone 7.5 Mango is decent, though certainly not overwhelming, with a host of welcome updates but little "must-have". It looks lovely though, and the HTC Radar is a good, solid vehicle for it -- if you like the look of Windows Phone...

It’s nice to see a mid-range phone that isn’t an Android device. The HTC Radar has a quality build and an excellent, smooth running OS. The 1GHz chip offers seamless performance, and there’s plenty of connectivity on offer. It’s an alternative to the...
Top build quality; excellent snapper; latest version of Windows Phone 7...
ider this – Android users have around 400,000 apps to choose from, Apple owners more than half a million. How many do you get for WP7 – a measly 40,000. Okay, as we’ve already mentioned, many of the features that you would need apps for, such as social networking, are already integrated into the operating system, and there’s a Local Scout tile that gives you a directory of local restaurants, shop...
For anyone looking for an alternative to Android or iOS, the HTC Radar is a worthy choice. The screen is clear and sharp, the build quality excellent and the operating system a joy to use. But the choice of apps lets it down...

Windows 7.5 Mango certainly offers a lot of useful improvements on its predecessor but it’s no game changer. It remains to be seen if developers will embrace it and begin populating the Marketplace in the kind of numbers it will need to compete with A...

No memory expansion; can’t access the battery; no Flash support.
The HTC Radar is a solidly made handset, and it’s a good size for the hand and pocket. Although, without memory expansion and Flash support it feels hampered. There’s no particular standout feature to lure us in, while the Windows Phone OS is something...
