Announced at MWC on February 16, 2010, with sales starting in April. Effectively a Nexus One with HTC Sense, an optical trackpad and physical buttons: a 3.7" AMOLED WVGA display (a Super LCD from August 2010 because of the Samsung shortage), a Snapdragon QSD8250 at 1 GHz, 576 MB of RAM, a 5 MP camera with LED, and Android 2.1 → 2.3 (ICS was never officially released because of insufficient memory). A mass-market hit in Europe and Asia, it was "phone of the year" at T3, Stuff and many other publications. In the US it was sold by US Cellular, Cellular South and Alltel; the CDMA version of the Desire was the Droid Incredible (Verizon). The Desire brand lasted until 2024.
