HTC Tattoo Performance and Hardware

Performance and Hardware

The Tattoo was powered by a 528 MHz ARM 11 processor on a Qualcomm MSM7225 Snapdragon S1 chipset. It lacked a dedicated graphics processor, resulting in limited graphical performance. Coupled with 256MB of RAM, multitasking was restricted to basic functions, with the phone sometimes struggling with more demanding applications. The internal storage was minimal, but users could expand it via a dedicated microSD card slot, which was a practical feature given the time.
