Description

HTC announced the HTC Radar on 1 September 2011 in London, along with the higher end HTC Titan. The devices were HTC's first smartphones to ship natively with Windows Phone Mango (7.5).[3]

Launch

Microsoft launched HTC Radar, powered by Windows Phone 7.5 Operating system (Codenamed Mango), on 12 October 2011 in India. HTC Radar is the first Mango powered Smart phone in India.[4]

Reception

Ross Miller of The Verge in his review wrote: "Finally, for the platform agnostic — for those who aren’t committed to purchasing Windows Phone hardware — I’m still not quite sure I can recommend this over an Android phone of similar value."[5]

gollark: It is kind of irritating that you need to have the entire OS installed for one useful program, but it is really very good.
gollark: PotatOS contains all the programs and useful bundled libraries which nobody will ever need.
gollark: It's a shame Ale's `cget` never really took off.
gollark: There's Vorbani, which is technically impressive but seemingly not all that *useful*.
gollark: Most of them are pointless GUIs. But some of them are vast complex... things.
