The first of HTC’s trio of new handsets was released to the world last week and is already one of the top selling phones. The HTC Legend<\/a> is an upgrade to the HTC Hero and features a unique ‘unibody’ design, no doubt inspired by Apple’s range of laptop computers. The lightweight metal housing for the phone is carved out of a single block of aluminium, making it extremely sturdy and robust.<\/p>\n

To really make the most of your HTC Legend<\/a> you’ll want to invest in a few accessories, but with so many Legend Cases<\/a>, Legend Covers<\/a>, Bluetooth Headphones<\/a> and Car Kits<\/a> to choose from, finding the best ones isn’t always easy.<\/p>\n

This post runs through ten of our most popular HTC Legend Accessories<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

1. HTC Legend Screen Protector SP P340 – Twin Pack<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The last thing you\u2019re going to want to do the the screen of your new Legend is scratch it. HTC screen protectors are \u00a0crystal clear and will keep your phone looking like new. They don\u2019t reduce the clarity of your screen and colours look exactly the way they\u2019re supposed to. If your screen protector gets dirty, they can be removed easily from the phone, cleaned and refitted. For more information on choosing a screen protector for your phone, take a look at our\u00a0guide to choosing the best Screen Protector<\/a> for your phone.<\/p>\n

2. HTC PO S491 Legend Standard Leather Pouch – Black<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The Legend is a smart looking phone that needs a smart looking case. The S491 has been designed specifically to accommodate the ‘chin’ on the Legend. It\u2019s a pouch style case that made from a high quality leather with a soft lining that helps to keep your screen fingerprint free.<\/p>\n

3. HTC CC C200 Micro USB Car Charger<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

As phones get smarter and more powerful with large, bright touch screens they use more and more power – especially if you use them for Sat Nav, internet & email. The HTC Legend Car charger will keep your phone powered and recharge the battery while you\u2019re in the car.<\/p>\n

4. Dash Genie In Car Holder<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The Dash Genie is the latest must have accessory to arrive at Mobile Fun. It\u2019s an ingenious car holder that uses suction to attach itself to your dashboard and will hold your Legend securely, without having to mess around with adjustable arms. The \u2018Red Dot\u2019 sticks to the flat back of your handset and holds it securely. Don\u2019t just take my word for it. Mobile Fun\u2019s very own Stig took it for a test drive and you can see the results on the\u00a0Mobile Fun YouTube Channel<\/a>.<\/p>\n

6. HTC Stereo Headset with Music Controls RC E150 – Black<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Depending on where you purchased your phone, you may not get any headphones in the box with the HTC Legend. If you don’t then you’ll be needing these – they have a built in microphone so you can use them for handsfree calling as well as an in-line remote control that lets you answer and end calls, play, pause, skip and rewind your music.<\/p>\n

7. Jabra BT530 Bluetooth Headset<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The BT-530 is a fantastic Bluetooth Headset from Jabra that packs in a lot of features. It’s not the most recent headset, but it’s our highest ranked headset based on customer feedback. As well as having 2 noise cancelling microphones, the Jabra BT530 has intelligent volume controls that will automatically increase the volume when you enter a noisy environment and support for multipoint \u2013 this allows you to use the headset with two mobile phones at the same time (Read my post on \u2018What is Multipoint<\/a>\u2018).<\/p>\n

8. Sony Ericsson MW600 Stereo Bluetooth Headset<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Sony Ericsson accessories with a HTC phone? Yes! Sony Ericsson have always been one of the best manufacturers of stereo Bluetooth headsets and the MW600 really doesn\u2019t disappoint. Not only does this compact headset allow you to stream music from your phone, it has full music controls and is the first stereo Bluetooth Headset to feature a built in FM Radio.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve tried to listening to the radio on your phone using a Bluetooth connection in the past, you\u2019ll know it\u2019s nearly impossible as the wire for the headphones acts as the antenna for the radio. The MW600 solves this by having an FM receiver built into the control unit. Considering the price of previous Sony Ericsson Bluetooth Headphones I was amazed to see that this is on sale for less than \u00a340. For more details on the MW600, take a look at our\u00a0Sony Ericsson MW600 Hands On Review<\/a>.<\/p>\n

9. Jabra SP700 Bluetooth Speakerphone<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

If you want to listen to music from your HTC Legend in your car but don\u2019t have a 3.5mm line in port on your stereo, don\u2019t panic there is another way to do it \u2013 and what\u2019s more, you won\u2019t need to have wires trailing everywhere! The Jabra SP700 is a self install Bluetooth Car Kit that simply clips to the sun visor of your car and pairs to your HTC Legend using Bluetooth. The SP700 supports the A2DP profile, which means that you can stream your music to it over Bluetooth and listen to it either using the built in speaker or through your car stereo speakers using it\u2019s built in FM Transmitter. The Jabra SP700 will also play your phone calls through your car stereo speakers for improved clarity. The battery life of the SP700 is fantastic with up to 14 hours talk time and 250 hours stand by.<\/p>\n

10. <\/strong>SanDisk MicroSDHC Card – 16GB<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

As with most handsets, the Legend only has a limited amount of internal storage. As a result, one of the first purchases you will need to make is a bigger memory card. This 16GB memory card can store upto 14000 high quality photos, 3000 songs and 18 hours of video. Using a SanDisk 16GB Memory Card with the Legend will allow you to store more music, games, photos and videos on your phone. Images and video taken using the Camera will take up lots more space, so more memory is a must. A 16GB memory card will let you store over 6000 high quality photos, 3000 songs or around 80 hours of standard definition video. A 16GB card is the largest memory card that is currently available, although a32GB Micro SD HC memory card<\/a> is due for release later in April.<\/p>\n
