But, let discuss a little bit more about the design, the spec, the software, the apps, the hardware equipped along with this HTC Pico (What? Pico? Yes, Pico is another alias name of HTC Explorer).
If you comparing this Explorer Smartphone to the latest smartphone that been recently released by HTC, you’ll find that the Explorer is the smallest in dimension size than the others (versus HTC Sensation XL for example)
What are the precisely dimension of this Explorer? 102.8 mm x 57.2 mm x 12.9 mm or about 4.05 inches x 2.25 inches x 0.51 inches are the answer. Along with the battery, this device has weighing in 108 grams or about 3.82 ounces. The phone available in four color choices: Active Black, Active Navy, Metallic black and Metallic Navy.

HTC Explorer Manual User Guide Quick Start Guide Resume
Although the picture image available in User Guide is not clear and good enough (only black and white picture) in comparison to the picture available on Quick Start Guide (with colorful image), but the details are more deeper in UG than in QSG. For example the tutorial to understanding the phone body layout and its keys and parts like the image below. On the QSG it only provides the front panel body but in User Manual / User Guide, it consist the side panel, front, back and top panel body. That absolutely better than only the front side.
If you never use a touchscreen phone / smartphone which means you are the first time on using HTC explorer, we recommend you to learn the basic functions such as how to receive a call and dial a number. This would be important due to the touchscreen is usually had a difference approach on how you can receive and make a call. Such as you had to slide to unlock the screen then you can receive a call instead of tap because the is no physical call and receive key. See the detail about this on the User Guide of HTC Explorer page 38 to page 48.
You might find the tutorial on how you can perform factory data reset on this HTC Explorer are have the same steps just like others HTC Smartphone which uses Android OS. Therefore, the similarity of the tutorial that we gave you below is unavoidable. Here are the guideline we got on page 174 of UG:
Home Screen > Press Menu > Tab Settings > SD & phone storage > Factory data reset > Reset phone > Erase Everything. Or you can use keys combination: Remove battery > reinsert > press and hold volume down button > briefly press power button > screen appears > release volume down > select factory reset using volume down > confirm with power button > done.
That the two optional steps in which you can performing hard reset aka master reset aka factory reset.
