The HTC ThunderBolt offers incredibly fast 4G data speeds. The Android 2.2 smartphone also supports simultaneous voice and data over 3G and boasts a large 4.3-inch touch screen, ample storage, and an excellent 8 megapixel camera with dual-LED flash. At a quick glance, without any background information, your eyes might tell you that the HTC Thunderbolt is little more than a Verizon remake of Sprint'sEVO 4G and AT&T's Inspire 4G. In reality, though, the Thunderbolt is something more: from the Inspire, it borrows a better, crisper display with a wider viewing angle and a newer-generation (though still single-core) Qualcomm Snapdragon processor. In other words, the Thunderbolt has a very real opportunity to be the finest 4.3-inch device HTC has ever made.
At 4.75 inches tall by 2.44 inches wide by 0.56 inch thick and 6.23 ounces, the ThunderBolt isn't for those who prefer dainty devices. The smartphone is large and actually slightly thicker and heavier than the Evo, but it's manageable and the tapered back and soft-touch finish make it comfortable to hold in the hand. The touch screen is also responsive. HTC ThunderBolt repair parts are available. On the bright side, the ThunderBolt has a sturdy kickstand so you can prop the phone on a desk to watch videos, conduct speakerphone calls, and the like. There's a Micro-USB port on the left side, and a volume rocker occupies the right side. Finally, on top of the device, you'll find a power/lock button and 3.5mm headphone jack.
The front-facing camera sits right above the screen on the right; below the display are the home, menu, back, and search navigation buttons. Meanwhile, the 8-megapixel camera and flash are located on back. The 720p video was remarkably free of artifacts or distortion -- it doesn't do continuous autofocus, but you can refocus on the fly with a tap on the screen. Likewise, sound quality was quite good.
As mentioned earlier, the ThunderBolt is the first smartphone to work on Verizon's LTE 4G network, which promises average download speeds of 5Mbps to 12Mbps and upload speeds of 2Mbps to 5Mbps. On all high-end Android phones, e-mail and web browsing is very good, but the 4G speed makes web browsing truly snappy, that’s why I call it “excellent”. Interesting is that HTC ThunderBolt repair services are not as costly as people think. The phone can use a computer’s Internet connection. This could be useful if you are traveling to a place where you don’t have coverage and where Wi-Fi is not available. Using this method, you can download apps and do other things directly on your phone.
The HTC ThunderBolt lights up with blazingly fast data speeds, 8 megapixel camera with LED Flash, android 2.2, lot of apps and a giant touch screen. The HTC Thunderbolt has been one of the most anticipated smartphones, as it is the first handset to use Verizon’s powerful 4G LTE network, and is easily one of the best Android devices in Verizon's expansive lineup even before you take the LTE capability into account. By using a 4G LTE network, select apps running on the Thunderbolt can reach a speed and a level of comfort never seen before on a smartphone.
