With new technology emerging at a lightning fast pace, Verizon Wireless jumped on board with 4G service with the HTC Thunderbolt. Running on the company’s new 4G LTE service, the Thunderbolt offers blazing speeds and incredible power all packed in a sleek and attractive mobile device.

If you are in the market for a few phone, the Thunderbolt may or may not be the best choice for you. Though it offers numerous benefits, there are also a few drawbacks. Taking the time to learn about both the pros and the cons will allow you to make a more informed decision when picking out your next smartphone.

HTC has long been known for manufacturing electronic devices that are on the cutting edge of technology, and the Thunderbolt is no exception. In addition to running on the brand new 4G service, it also features cutting edge hardware. Thanks to the device’s 768 MB of RAM and a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, opening, running, and switching between numerous apps is a breeze and will not cause the phone to crash or lag as many other devices may.

It makes multitasking simple, and it even allows you to make phone calls and browse the web at the same time. The HTC Thunderbolt runs on the Android 2.2 operating system with HTC Sense 2.0. Like other Android-based devices, it offers full integration with Google that makes accessing Gmail, Google Maps, YouTube, and more fast and easy.

Android users also have access to the Android Marketplace that has more than 150,000 apps. These apps can be used for nearly anything ranging from productivity and business software to games and entertainment apps. With such a vast selection, it is easy to find the right app for whatever your individual needs may be. This phone has an internal storage capacity of 8 GB, and the ability to add a micro SD memory card with a capacity of up to 32 GB. With this much storage space it is nearly impossible to run out of room for apps, photos, and videos.

If you are looking for a smartphone that is excellent for videos and gaming, the Thunderbolt is a good choice. It features a 4.3 inch touch screen with a 480×800 WVGA display. This allows for high quality HD video playback, and the Thunderbolt supports videos in numerous formats.

The large screen is also very responsive and accurate, so it is ideal for gaming. Photography lovers will also enjoy Verizon’s HTC Thunderbolt because it includes an incredible eight megapixel rear camera with auto focus and LED flash. It takes high quality photos, and it can also be used for recording HD videos that can be streamed wirelessly to a compatible television.

Despite all its positive features, the Thunderbolt also has a few drawbacks. Compared to similar products, it’s battery is smaller and provides a short battery life. During heavy use a full charge may only last up to five hours. Even during normal talking the battery is only good for six to seven hours. If you are primarily interested in the HTC Thunderbolt because of its ability to access Verizon’s 4G LTE service, you may want to check and see if it is available in your area before taking the plunge.

While the Thunderbolt works on the 3G network as well, 4G LTE service is currently only available in a limited number of metropolitan areas. If 4G LTE service is not available in your area, it is unlikely that you will able to truly experience the HTC Thunderbolt’s full capabilities. Compared to other phones, this device is also a bit heavier and bulkier. Weighing in at an ounce heavier than the iPhone 4, some users have complained that it feels more like a business tool than a personal device.

In the world of newly emerging 4G technology, the HTC Thunderbolt is a very powerful and capable device. If you are in an area where 4G LTE service is available and you are looking for one of the fastest smartphones on the market, it is a great choice for you. If, however, you are not in an area that is covered by the 4G LTE network, it will perform much like any other 3G device. Weighing out all the benefits and drawbacks is the only way to be sure whether or not a particular device is right for you.
