It&#8217;s fast, responsive, has a great screen and it looks gorgeous. It&#8217;s so good in fact that I&#8217;m tempted to switch to the Desire from my iPhone 3G.<\/p>\n<p>The Desire looks great &#8211; our test handset was the black\/grey version and has a soft touch finish, but I doubt it will stay looking this good for long. The finish looks like it will scratch quite easily, so you&#8217;re going to need a case for it. As the Desire is almost identical to the Nexus One, most <a title=\"View all Nexus One cases\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/google\/nexus-one\/cases\">Nexus One Cases<\/a> will fit, but a couple of subtle changes to the keypad and bottom of the screen mean that not all of them will fit.<\/p>\n<p>The <a title=\"View all HTC Desire Cases\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/htc\/desire\/cases\">HTC Desire Cases<\/a> listed below have all been tried and tested with a working phone and we&#8217;ve found them to do a great job of protecting your phone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. <\/strong><a title=\"Noreve Tradition A Leather Case for HTC Desire\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/noreve-tradition-a-leather-case-for-htc-desire-24199\"><strong>Noreve Tradition A Leather Case for HTC Desire<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A luxury phone deserves a luxury case, and you don&#8217;t get much more luxurious than a Noreve Case. What I love about them the most is the way that they hold your Desire securely without having to slide it into a stitched pocket that interferes with the light sensors and blocks the edges of the screen. The Noreve case looks excellent, is made from high quality leather and is surprisingly slim once it\u2019s on your phone.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7137\" style=\"width: 360px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/noreve-tradition-a-leather-case-for-htc-desire-24199\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7137\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7137\" title=\"Noreve Tradition A Leather Case for HTC Desire\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/best-desire-cases3.jpg\" alt=\"Noreve Tradition A Leather Case for HTC Desire\" width=\"350\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/best-desire-cases3.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/best-desire-cases3-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/best-desire-cases3-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/best-desire-cases3-60x60.jpg 60w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-7137\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Noreve Tradition A Leather Case for HTC Desire<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>2. <\/strong><a title=\"FlexiShield Skin For The HTC Desire - Black\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/flexishield-skin-for-the-htc-desire-transparent-black-24206\"><strong>FlexiShield Skin For The HTC Desire<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you want to keep your Desire safe, without adding any extra bulk to your phone then this is the kind of case you need. Flexishield skins are thin, flexible gel cases that cover the back, side and corners of your phone and protect it against scratches and scrapes. They leave all the vital parts of your Desire (such as the camera, headphone port, charging port) fully accessible and can be removed quickly and easily if needed. They don&#8217;t cover the screen though, so you&#8217;ll need to invest in a <a title=\"View all HTC Screen Protectors\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/htc\/desire\/screen-protectors\">HTC Desire Screen Protector<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7135\" style=\"width: 360px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/flexishield-skin-for-the-htc-desire-transparent-black-24206\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7135\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7135\" title=\"FlexiShield Skin For The HTC Desire - Black\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/best-desire-cases1.jpg\" alt=\"FlexiShield Skin For The HTC Desire - Black\" width=\"350\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/best-desire-cases1.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/best-desire-cases1-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-7135\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">FlexiShield Skin For The HTC Desire - Black<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>3. <\/strong><a title=\"HTC Desire Carry Pouch\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/htc-desire-carry-pouch-p24200.htm\"><strong>HTC Desire Carry Pouch<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you prefer to put your phone away somewhere safe when it&#8217;s not in use, then a carry pouch will suit you down to the ground.
