The HTC Inspire 4G for AT&T recently received an over the air operating system update. Why is this a big deal? As an operating system upgrade alone, keeping up with the most current and most technically advanced OS is important for obvious reasons. With this Gingerbread update, which is exclusive to AT&T owners of the HTC Inspire 4G smartphone, Android lovers also receive several other beneficial side effects. Let’s take a look at the Top 5 ways the recent Gingerbread operating system update for the HTC Inspire 4G smartphone benefits its owners.
1 – Better Application Tray
The HTC Inspire 4G software upgrade which is sent over the air and requires no effort on the users part delivers a better application tray interface and usability. Accessing your applications is quicker and easier, and the navigation has been made much more sensible and intuitive.
2 – HTC Sense User Interface is Enhanced
There is no argument that the HTC Sense UI is one of the friendliest and most enjoyable user interface overlays for any Android smartphone or operating system. But actually, it gets even better with this Gingerbread 2.3.3 update, and performs as if it was made specifically for integration with this particular operating system.
3 – Better Power Management
Battery life has also been extended through the software upgrade. More talk time, standby time and web browsing on a single charge is the result. Getting more use from a single charge out of your electronics device adds to its portability, and the HTC Inspire 4G now becomes a more efficient device with this particular feature of the software upgrade.
4 – FriendStream is Upgraded
The FriendStream feature on the HTC Inspire 4G is one of the most popular web 2.0 social networking applications of all mobile operating systems. It basically allows one-stop access to all your Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and other social networking accounts. With the new software update, HTC says you will be able to interact via status updates, tweets and other responses on the social platforms quicker with a wider range of options.
5 – Improved Media Interaction
While not revealing too many specifics, HTC and AT&T stated that your use of multimedia, enjoying videos, watching movies and surfing the web is enhanced as well with this Gingerbread 2.3.3 update. They did clarify that the time it takes you to access multimedia has been trimmed by the upgrade as well.
Upgrades are great for the customer, great for the company making the upgrade, and help you get more out of your device. HTC and AT&T said the update will be delivered wirelessly over the air, and this upgrade will be available to all AT&T Inspire 4G handset owners.

Switch from a Samsung i917 Windows Phone 7..like a breath of fresh air. Knew I was miserable with WP7 but not how miserable until I got the Inspire with 2.3.3. The only problems I’ve had with this phone (even though there is no 4G in this area yet) is adjusting to something that works as well as this does after suffering thorugh WP7/Samsung i917.
