HTC update (1.53.666.5) is this good?

I'm on Bell network and just wondering about this update that is being pushed to my phone.

I'm sceptical about updates and I try to do some research before installing any as I've had bad experiences with them including degraded performance. And since you can't roll back on Android it's important for me to do research before installing any.

So just wondering if any body has heard of this update and can report if it was good or not... Did you notice any performance degradation or increase? Many thanks for any help!

Thats a pretty old update. I'm sure it's fine as everyone else has had it for quite awhile and are well past it actually. I'm on Verizon tho and no nothing of the Bell network. It is supposed to bring camera and wifi improvements which are good. I'd go for it.

EDIT: Wifi has been problematical for some as far as good range. How is yours currently? I'm on the 1.85 update and wifi range is less than some other devices I have, but is fine even so. Just something I noticed. YMMV Probably more the antenna placement anyway by HTC.

Yeah. That's one of the first updates and needed for some early camera issues. No reported problems with it. Unlocked phones are on 1.96 so you will most likely be getting some more prompts. I have all the updates on my Verizon phone, well up to 1.85, and the phone still runs fantastic
