I'M IN LOVE WITH HTC INCREDIBLE S (PART 2)

I'M IN LOVE WITH HTC INCREDIBLE S (PART 2)


It sounds a little showing-off but I have the reasons why I'm saying so. Many people told me "No, iPhone is the best now. No other phones can defeat". Hello, don't say as if I'm a dummy who've never touched an iPhone before. I'm having an iPhone, a Blackberry & a HTC Incredible S now and I'm speaking with full of justice. *ahem*

To be honest, I was a big fan of iPhone (and Blackberry previously) for their smartness & especially the HDR camera function, 5megapixels camera and flash. The photos taken by an iPhone never fail to please me with their soft skin mode, lighting adjustment. And if I want my photos to be even much chio-er, I just need to download extra photography apps in the Apps store. I was very happy back then. 

Until HTC Incredible S arrived at my house. I was introduced about the new "member" who wants to join the Crystal's gadget family that this tiny black phone has 8 megapixels. And no, it's actually not tiny. In fact, it's the biggest phone among the three with 4inch screen (iphone has only 3.5inch display). 

Ok lah, some of you can nag me like my mom "You buy a phone not a camera. What do you need a high megapixel phone for? Taking a normal photo is good enough". Ok fair, can I ask you to buy one of these phones below:

Just need to make a phone call, sms only, why need an iPhone ???

Is it so wrong to demand smart phone comes with a smart camera? No, it isn't. Especially, it's an phone for a blogger, photographers, reporters who need to capture photos, moments every where on the go. And that's the reason why I praised this HTC Incredible S so much because I don't have to download every single apps to beautify my photos. All the different photo effects are ready-to-use and real-time sharing!

Let me show you the different photo effects that HTC Incredible S has:


1. Depth of field. 
Super dreamy feel with blur background


2. Vintage mode

3. Vintage warm

Vintage warm with different lighting

4. Vintage cold

5. Grayscale

6. Sepia 

7. Distortion 
Was on the plane flying to Krabi and I took this photo. It turned out to be quite artistic, lolz


and many more....

My favorite macro shooting mode and HTC gives me the feeling like I'm holding a semi-pro DSLR with their auto-focus lens. Maxi intelligence! 


Low light shooting can never be easier. My iPhone cries out loud when it comes to this. 


Angry bird, what level are you? ;)

 Another artistic photo of the sky with Vintage mode! 


Food photo taken by HTC Incredible S (with flash of course)


Wanna know how iPhone photo looks like?









Here you go!


Some other photo comparisons:

My tissue box, cute? 

Taking photo of my friend Alicia using iPhone & HTC with flash. And obviously, HTC gives me so much better quality photo.

Normal shooting without flash. iPhone4 makes my skin much better but lighting isnt as good as HTC. 

So don't say that I'm bias to HTC Incredible S. Proof given! And this is not to mention that HTC Incredible S does have many different effects for movie shooting as well which iPhone has none. OMG! Seriously! Think again people! I mean I still love iPhone because I've been using it for a while but I can't deny that HTC does give me so much more excitement and happiness, not to mention how convenient and smart the phone is. How smart?

1. Friend stream: all status, photos update from Twitter, Facebook of the same person will be shown in 1 screen. Which phone has that? HTC!

2. Contact + facebook/ twitter = People. That's why, the moment you key in your facebook username & password, HTC will help you to find and match the contact in your contact and update it instantly. I was literally shocked when I saw my cousin's handphone number in UK in my contact. I didn't even ask her, neither she gave me. That's really amazing, HTC!

3. Photo tagging before uploading: Right! As per normal, you need to upload your photo onto the facebook first, then you'll be able to tag your friend. With HTC, tag anytime you want and upload it. The phone will auto-crawl the correct friend in your friend list. You got my salutation!

There are so many other awesome functions that HTC has which I'm unable to tell you all now. If you still insist iPhone is better than HTC, then you don't need to read my blog anymore. It's redundant!
But before leaving my page, please remember grab a HTC to try out and experience yourself and come back to tell me what you think.

Now I'm still placing HTC as champion! Cheh!

Last message before I end the entry, PLEASE VOTE FOR ME! How many times do I need to say this so that you will vote for me? Wtf! VOTE LAHHH!



Stubborn people don't want to vote yet? Sure, no problem! Support HTC instead of me by visiting their Website,  visiting their Facebook fan and following Crystal on Twitter
Good luck!

SAY HELLO TO MY HTC INCREDIBLE S!

SAY HELLO TO MY HTC INCREDIBLE S!



No other words for this 3S gadget (Sexy- Small- Stylish) 

My bad! Until today only I manage to find time to blog about my latest phone HTC Incredible S which I was given 2 weeks ago by HTC Team. I was lucky enough to chose any phone that I want. Initially, I was attracted to the Pink HTC Wildfire S but then the 8MP camera of Incredible S won me over. I'm a cam-whorer, big time :D

It took me awhile to get used to Incredible S despite I've ever had a HTC phone 4 years ago. Jesus, technologies have changed so fast, I was like a person who first time touched a hand phone, lolz....Talking about the sophisti-complicated functions that HTC Incredible S has later, now I'll just share few highlight stuffs that I'm in love with this tiny piece.

First of all, the design of the phone. So slim, so light, so stylish, so magical. Enough words yet? You gotta touch the phone yourself at....Singtel, Starhub or M1 shop, not mine.  


"Look at HTC Incredible S and you know it's different. The elegant contoured design is so unique that it stands out from any angle. The look, the sound, the feel and....the curve". There is no "the curve" word on HTC website, I added in myself to make it sound sexier. 

4" LCD Screen. HUGE!
 You'll never have to complain about how shitty your movie quality will be. Just shut up and watch!


Wanna be a director of your own movie? Oh yes, you can! With many different video modes plus a 8MP camera, you snap and record anything you want lah.


I love this! I love this! I love this!
Hello! I didn't say I love my photo! 

I love the camera with auto-focus and manual shooting mode (exposure, iso, white balance etc....) OMG! So mad talented! Got macro shooting some more *faint*

I'll show you the photos I took in the next post but trust me, iPhone just gotta dies of shame especially when comes to low-lighting, my HTC Incredible S does an incredible job. 


Ok, last photoshopped-pic with my HTC before I log off. There are so many awesome stuffs that I can't wait to share with you guys but I have not had time. Next entry perhaps!


For now, watch this:

HTC SENSATION LAUNCH PARTY

HTC SENSATION LAUNCH PARTY


Guess, this will be the fastest blog entry of all time because I'm gonna blog about something happened just last night. I usually blog about things happened few days or few weeks back, lolz. Anyway, you guys know that I'm currently one of the 10 Singapore Blog Award- HTC Best mobile blog finalists and that's why I was invited to attend the HTC Sensation Launch Party for their newly launched mobile phone which happened last night. I was sick and I thought I couldn't make it but in the end, I managed to attend for few hours. And it didn't disappoint me: the party was super awesome and fun. 


New HTC Logo. It looks much better than the old one which is 
this one. 

Melisa (another finalist blogger) picked me up at Anchorpoint first then Calvin and Kevin later. We were like close friends have not seen each other for an age or because all bloggers love talking that's why we could click very well, lolz. 


I, Melisa, Kevin, Calvin (closewise) camwhoring inside the car.

Getting in. 


Striking a pose on the red- carpet. (*Photo courtersy of Livestudio.sg) 


The place (*Photo courtersy of HTC SG) 

Logo in the ice! Cool & briliant

The DJ


The people

It's so crowded! It wasn't weekend yet but many people have made their effort to attend the party (at least myself coz I never party on Wednesday night). Way to go, HTC! There were so many local celebrities in the house that night too: 


DJ Nicole Chen, Radio DJ Bobby TonelliModel Linda Black (left to right)

 987fm DJ- The Muttons (in white)

 MTV VJs: Uttsada & Holly are playing the game "Guess what our relationship is"

987FM DJ Rozz is here, where is Shan? Must be tied up at home by his girlfriend, lolz


I & Melisa: Omy.sg bloggers


Striking another pose with our HTC Incredible S

Getting inked on my hand. Guess what is it?

Wait for it to dry

Here you go! HTC logo, cute to the max



Camwhoring shot of myself. I didn't do anything on photo effect, neither photoshop. This was because of the lighting at the venue itself, lolz...Super chio!


Lucky draw!

I was too tired to wait for the lucky draw at 1am. I left the party around 11-ish with a complimentary customised HTC bottle with S$100 voucher inside. That's so sweet!

Talking about lucky draw, it just puzzles me a little when thinking about us- HTC mobile blogger finalists. A lucky draw winner asked a blogger "What do you guys do as HTC mobile blogger?" 

"Oh, we were given a HTC phone to use, to blog about it, to tweet, facebook etc...and we gotta attend some HTC events like this" *proud face*

"So this is like a competition? What if after doing so many things, you don't win, what would you get?"

"Erhhh, nothing" -_-

I'm not sure how many HTC Sensation phones were given away to lucky winners that night. They were lucky of course! But hey look! Just need to attend launch party and you might get a latest phone back if you are lucky enough. Really? That's so easy. Ok, I want to attend more products launch events now, lolz.

Anyway, back to the Singapore Blog Awards 2011. I'm very happy that I'm one of the 10 finalist bloggers. I'm happy that I made a lot of new blogger friends, they are so friendly, creative and good at hearts. I'm happy to be given a chance to fore-use, say something about HTC new products and make people listen to it.  Trust me, I'll give the best review to you guys so that you can make a good decision whether should or should not buy HTC phone. I don't want you to think that "Nah, she just wants to win the award so she has to talk good things about HTC" That's not true! Judging, reviewing or commenting should be neutral and fair. I've been keeping that habit and it brings my blog values. 

Next blog entry should be an interesting one *wink*

For now, please do not forget to VOTE FOR ME!!!! 

Click on the photo to vote please!!!!!!
