HTC's Gratia is designed to fit in the space between high-end Android smartphones such as the HTC Desire HD, and entry-level models such as the Orange San Francisco, a rebranding of ZTE's Blade handset. But to call it 'mid-range' is to inadequately de...

If you want a smartphone for occasional use of the web, Google Maps, video watching and so on, the HTC Gratia might just suit. If, on the other hand, you plan to indulge in those kinds of activities regularly you'd be better off with a larger screen an...

The Android 2.2-powered Gratia is HTC's latest mid-range smartphone. Its name, which can roughly be translated from Latin to "grace", sounds a lot less bold than its older siblings the HTC Desire , Hero and Wildfire , but there's a lot to like about this...

In a smartphone world currently dominated by 4-inch behemoths, the surprisingly compact 3.2-inch HTC Gratia makes a pleasant change. It's still packed with features, however, and gets a pin-sharp screen. Read on to find out if it can better its larger...

It's increasingly difficult to find a compact touchscreen smartphone these days, with most manufacturers producing bigger and bigger devices. If you're looking for something a little smaller, the HTC Gratia has a lot to offer, with its compact size and cute styling at the top of the list. The 3.2-inch screen on the HTC Gratia offers a couple of advantages. As well as providing a smaller and more...

The main problem with the HTC Gratia, is that there's little to recommend it over other Android handsets aside from the size and battery life. Devices like the HTC Legend offer better styling, better build quality and better screens, making it difficult to justify the HTC Gratia's existence.

The HTC Gratia is a nice smartphone, but it simply lacks any stand-out features. It's worth a look if you simply want a small handset with a decent battery life, but there are better all-round devices on the market. HTC Gratia is tagged with HTC Gratia...

The US's slimline, Android-running HTC Aria was due to arrive on UK and European shores back in November, albeit rebranded as the less-musical-sounding Gratia and boasting Android 2.2 (Froyo), rather than 2.1 (Eclair).Now it's finally here and ready to ca...

Try to find the HTC Gratia Android phone on HTC’s official website. If you’re browsing from the UK, you’ll struggle – it doesn’t appear on the company’s list of phones available in the UK. And yet here the little chipper of a Google blower is, on s...

it.Contrary to HTC’s website specs, the HTC Gratia actually runs the more recent Android 2.2 rather than 2.1 build of Google’s mobile OS, which offers speed improvements running apps, and a handy mobile WiFi hotspot feature for hopping online with your laptop (or HTC Flyer) wherever your phone has a 3G signal. With a lowly 600MHz processor inside however, the HTC Gratia doesn’t support Adobe Fla...

HTC has produced plenty of Android devices recently, and the Gratia comes up to its usual high standards. It’s hardly a budget phone, at £299 SIM free, but it’s a decent mid-range device with a number of advanced features you’d expect on a high-end...

The HTC Gratia is here to bring back mini mobiles into vogue. After a year of non stop, oversized Google blowers, this baby slots neatly into the palm of your hand. But is it handy to use, or will your fingers struggle to tap at the shrunken keyboard b...

In terms of price, you’ll get better specs and newer software on the HTC Gratia than previous model, the HTC Wildfire. But based on size alone, the HTC Legend remains best in class...

HTC Gratia has Qualcomm 600 Mhz CPU which has same performance as the iPhone 3G, which is certainly respectable. The same can be said for the amount of 384 MB of RAM which is impressive for a phone in the price range and suited very well for multitaski...

The only thing we really miss is HD video recording, and possibly a Blits on camera. Since it is a while since Aria came out, and the two phones are virtually identical (apart from Android 2.2 on Gratia) could possibly have hoped that HTC would have u...

We had high hopes for the HTC Gratia – but in the end, the impression it left on us wasn’t as good compared to the Aria from a few months back. We thought that the update to Froyo would bring more goodies than it did – the Gratia runs almost the same...

The HTC Gratia is a very good budget Android option, but I would suggest that you wait until MWC 2011. A lot of new budget Android phones should be unveiled then, that will offer much more than the HTC Gratia does.Also, check out this list of th...
