HTC's Hero looks like the best Android phone yet

Just days after T-Mobile announced the new myTouch 3G, its second Android phone, manufacturer HTC, which makes the device, unveiled the HTC Hero, yet another Android device that looks even better than the myTouch.

HTC apparently is betting hard on Android, the mobile operating system from Google, and the latest results look impressive. I wasn't at the launch event in London, but details and information coming out of it make for a device that looks like a great competitor to the iPhone and Palm Pre.



Here are some of the highlights:

The Hero's got real Adobe Flash support. It's not Flash 10, which will come out later this year, but it gives you full Internet video, dynamic ads and access to thousands of Flash games. This is a first for an Android phone and among the first for any phone.

The Hero has a thing called HTC Sense, which allows you to personalize your home page and set up profiles for work, weekends or just play. You can also organize more content according to the people in your life. From your contacts list you can see what messages you've exchanged with that person, their Facebook updates and their Flickr photos.
