Great camera, Fast processor, Great interface.
The HTC Amaze 4G features a premium chassis, a sharp Super LCD touch screen, and a dual-core processor. It's equipped with an 8-megapixel camera with a number of advanced shooting modes and settings. T-Mobile's HSPA+ 42 speeds were impressive.

Cons

Voice quality is good, but not great, Battery life is slightly disappointing
Strange design, Mediocre battery life, 4.3-inch screen may be too large for some, LCD screen cannot match the color of AMOLED, Camera can get a little hyper
Heavier than most phones, Pricey, Images (click to enlarge)
Large and heavy, Sense UI starting to feel intrusive, voice call hiss
Expensive, Heavy, HDMI out requires an adapter.
Big and heavy, Some issues with lowlight shots, Casing and screen take fingerprints and dirt
The smartphone is heavy and expensive. The camera still struggled in low-light environments.
