The HTC Cha Cha is famously marketed as a 'Facebook phone', with a dedicated Facebook button enabling you to update all your important information and share your thoughts and photographs with just one button push. It's also designed to help you cope with the fast pace of modern life. How does it shape up against the HP Palm Pre 3, another phone that assists you with the trials and tribulations of everyday living.

The HP Pre 3 features the webOS platform that powered the Palm Pre and HP Palm Pre 2, with a few new improvements thrown in to boot.

Packed into the slim design of the HP Pre 3 is a 1.4GHz processor, email engine, slide out Qwerty  keyboard and a decent battery.

The HTC Cha Cha comes with a qwerty keyboard on top. It has an 800MHz processor and runs on Android 2.3.3 with the custom skin HTC Sense 2.1.

The HP Pre 3 runs on webOS, which makes multitasking easy. You can keep lots of apps open at the same time and easily flip between them – they are arranged like a deck of cards so you can switch between Facebook and emails, photos and documents with a simple tap of the finger.

One of the best features of the HTC Cha Cha is the ability to synchronise all of your emails in one inbox, colour coding them so it's easy to keep work and personal emails separate.

There are a decent range of apps available for the Cha Cha, and while the HP app store is not quite as developed as those of its competitors, it still has a range of high quality apps to choose from. These include big name apps such as Angry Birds, Linked in, Facebook, the Times - and the list is constantly growing.

The HTC Cha Cha is available from Clove Technology for £238 including VAT, while the HP Pre 3 is £360 including VAT.
