In theory, the HTC Desire Z brings together the best of both worlds with touchscreen and QWERTY keyboard inputs – in practice, the keyboard seems a little too muddled to be the best of its world.

It's just that the keyboard doesn't quite feel right compared to other smartphones still fiddling with keys – and I'll explain why.
But first: a bit about the phone itself. The Desire Z is a 3.7inch touchscreen handset that runs on Android 2.2 with the typical HTC-specific Sense interface.

Under the screen is a QWERTY keyboard that slides out from the bottom so the phone can be used side-on like a miniature netbook.
As it's single solid button (apart from the keyboard, of course) is a touch-sensitive black button that can be pressed as a sort of enter key and can be scrolled across with the finger in place of directional buttons on older phones.

This comes especially in handy when typing exclusively with the keypad and not wanting to tap on the screen to move up and down the text you're typing to fix up mistakes.
