The front of the phone has a capacitive touch screen with four main buttons. The four main buttons are the home, menu, back and search buttons. Below the screen is a 4-row QWERTY keyboard. Slightly above the keyboard are the send and end call buttons. Below the QWERTY keyboard is the ever so famous Facebook button that has a direct connection to Facebook. On the left side of the phone there is a volume switch and a microUSB port. On the top there is a power/lock button and there is nothing on the right side of the phone. The back is quite bare except for the camera and the flash. The phone itself is slanted towards the end to make it more comfortable to use when talking.

The HTC ChaCha has a 2.6 inch capacitive touch display. It is covered by scratch and smudge resistant Gorilla glass. The phone features a proximity sensor that allows for the phone to turn off automatically if it is left unattended for a certain period of time. The touch screen is also a multi-touch screen. There is also a light sensor on this device. The light sensor is basically an auto-brightness feature. Auto-brightness means that the light sensor will adjust the screens backlight depending on how well lit up the environment is around it. Both the light sensor and the proximity sensor help maintain battery life in the device.
