As its name suggests, the HTC 7 Mozart is a handset that aims to bring you the best audio experience possible, a feature often overlooked by many manufacturers. Yet many phone users are turning to their mobile handsets for use as a portable audio player, which makes perfect sense as they not only have the capacity to hold hundreds, if not thousands of audio files, but they are always on your person. In simple terms this means wherever you are, your music can also be. Yet the modern handset does not only limit you to your own music, and the Mozart incorporates facilities such as HD radio that enable you to listen to a whole host of other musical options.

Regardless of how much music your handset can manage, if it does not sound great then it may as well not sport any features at all. Luckily HTC have acknowledged the fact that a barrage of features needs to be backed up with this quality, and have therefore implemented a sound enhancement system into the Mozart. The system that they have opted for on this model is developed by SRS Labs, a company that specialise in the application of psychoacoustics, or in simple ...
... terms, ways to enhance the audio experience consumers experience from a range of audio devices from televisions to mobile phones. The exact technology in place here is named SRS Wow HD. This improves the clarity of all sound, but especially compressed music such as the MP3 files you are likely to store on this handset. It does this by not only increasing the horizontal sound field, but also by extending the vertical one. This effectively uncovers sounds that were hidden in the compression process, as well as adding a deeper low frequency sound to the equation. By looking at these low frequencies and sculpting the sound, the developer allows the user to get a much greater bass response from smaller speakers or headphones, the two items that relate perfectly to a mobile handset.

When listening to your music on the HTC 7 Mozart, a handy application named the Sound Enhancer helps optimise the sound so it is perfect for you. Just as you would expect to find on a home stereo or surround sound system, the application features preset equaliser settings that make your music take on different sounds, so whether you like bass heavy dance music or more acoustic tunes requiring more detail in the high end frequencies, you can be sure that there is a setting to suit you. Just as the iPhone uses iTunes, Windows 7 handsets use a similar piece of software named Zune, which enables the transfer of not only music but also podcasts and video. Although this performs pretty much the same job as other well known systems it can also wirelessly synchronise with your PC whenever your phone is on charge, updating your music catalogue automatically. This particular feature is one of the most impressive features of Zune, and saves you the trouble of having to manually update your library.

The HTC Mozart features the great build quality and user interface that you expect from an HTC handset but the added audio facilities make it a must for people who like myself extensively use their phone for audio playback.

The HTC 7 Mozart and the LG Optimus Chic are both available now.
