    Probably a stupid question, but here goes anyway.....................

    On previous phones I've had either Edge or 3G

    Using the Desire on O2 (bought sim free from CPW) in an area where i would normally see a very strong 3G but I'm seeing H (HSPA).

    Is this better than 3G and if not why am I now not seeing 3G anymore?

    Thanks

    OK so HSDPA an enhanced 3G i.e. 3.5G so I take it I'm better off (I Hope), see said it was a stupid question :D

    Hi Marky711, and welcome to AF :)

    You'll get your best answer in the Desire S forum - this is the original Desire here. But I think the 2 year old Desire S is good for 14 Mbit/s download, which I believe you'd call hsdpa rather than hspa+.
