During the Windows 7 Enterprise Launch earlier this week, I was able to take a sneak peek at the upcoming HTC HD 2 and though I was not allowed to take pictures or video, they allowed me to play around with it for a while.
This phone combines sexy and elegance with a large 4.3 inch capacitive screen {see full specs here}. This is the largest screen I’ve ever seen in a mobile phone — larger than the first Touch HD and even the iPod Touch.
Despite that, HTC was still able to keep it slim at 11mm (as slim as the Nokia E71). It’s got some pretty kick-ass graphics as well.
While it is running Windows Mobile 6.5, it is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon QSD2850 1.0 GHz processor so everything is smooth and fast. The HTC Sense UI is also a beauty and runs on top of WinMo 6.5 so you don’t actually see any semblance of the OS in the interface. The Touch HD2 is also Windows Mobile 7 compatible so when that OS comes out, you can have it readily upgraded.
Reps from HTC Philippines tell me the Touch HD2 will be out in the public by December or early January next year with an estimated retail price of around Php49,000.
Hello! I just wish to give you a big thumbs up for the great info you have got right here on this post.
I’ll be coming back to your blog for more soon.
HTC HD2 is the best superphone that i have, you can load Android and WP7 and dual boot on that phone.
@Yka: If you’re still interested in HTC HD2, I can facilitate order from the US for you. The last unit we sold was priced at 24,000. It was a high quality refurbished unit from the US. Unlocked and was ready to use in the PI. Just today, my supplier confirmed that he got a new unit of HTC HD2 running Froyo 2.2.
