The deciding factor between this device and the HTC Wildfire S is if you don't want an LED flash for the camera. The trade-off to that is that the Explorer has better software allowing for a more fluid and enjoyable user experience. ...

Das kleine Display, die reduzierte Ausstattung und die knappe Ausdauer sind die Minuspunkte des Explorer, der Empfang und die Bedienung sind gut.

If you've owned an Android phone before, the chances are that the Explorer is not really going to appeal, as its specification is too basic. However, if you're looking for handset that would serve as a sensible first dip into the world of smartphones, then the Explorer's good build quality and neat Sense user interface makes it a good, if not exactly spectacular, option.

Das HTC Explorer ist nicht das beste Smartphone aller Zeiten. Das will es aber auch gar nicht sein - es ist günstig, stabil, leicht zu bedienen und bringt alles mit, was für den Einstieg in die Smartphone-Welt nötig ist.
