This evening, HTC launched 3 new phones — the HTC Viva, HTC Touch 3G and highly anticipated HTC Touch HD.
Of the 3 phones, the HTC Touch HD took center stage with probably the largest display we’ve seen on a touch screen phone so far.
HTC Touch HD
3.8″ display screen (480×800 pixels)
5MP autofocus camera with secondary front-facing VGA camera
3G/HSDPA 7.2Mbps
WiFi 802.11 b/g
Bluetooth 2.0
Windows Mobile Professional 6.1
Built-in GPS
FM radio tuner
8GB microSD card
The HTC Touch HD gets a real wide screen real estate which is generally good for multimedia tasks like video playback and web surfing. The device is also thin at only 12mm. The TouchFLO 3D interface has been improved to be more responsive.
The built-in battery is a little weak though, at only 1350mAh (the E71 has 1500mAh). Suggested retail price is pegged at Php55,900USD 953INR 80,753EUR 907CNY 6,937.
YugaTech.com is the largest and longest-running technology site in the Philippines. Originally established in October 2002, the site was transformed into a full-fledged technology platform in 2005.

I so wish I was in the Philippines right now. You guys are very lucky coz you get to have all the cool and latest phones.
I blogged about the HTC Touch HD a couple months back. At first, it was rumored to be coming to the US and would be under AT&T, but a month later HTC said it won’t be releasing it in the US. I hope they change their minds.

HTC has always done a good job in phones, I guess they dont really care about lowering the price and more about offering to the high end customers.

where can i buy htc phones?
is the htc touch hd available in the philippines?
^_____^
Dong says:
The highest price of HD here in Dubai is 3599 Dirhams as I got it Dec2008. I believe 1USD = 3.66AED (Dirhams). Really love the device. I hope developers soon come up with apps & games totally compatible with WVGA & Accelerometer (very few at the moment and most of the apps are designed only for Touch Diamond and Touch Pro.

To bad for me wala pa budget. hehehe.
But i see something, the HTC Dream. I think this is much cheaper that HTC Touch HD.
jakeonline says:

for me, the only missing in it is the flash!!! :(

Ko Ko says:
I m going to buy neet week at Macau.Its my dream.
Angeli says:
LOL! you don’t need to be in the philippines to have this kind of phone,just buy it through Asian market in you area. that’s how I got mine,and its still pretty and neat.
And if you don’t have a carrier yet you can choose T-mobile or AT&T..or whatever you have. Its global anyway. I got mine less than the price after I open a new line in T-mobile
And If you Have HTC Touch HD, to protect the screen, its better to use PALM TREO or whatever palm SCREEN PROTECTOR you have for your HTC Touch HD.Trust me its a lot better, its easy to find in the store and u don’t need to buy it online,besides it works better than the screen protector made for HTC Touch HD,its thicker and it sticks well and it last longer.
about the accessories, I suggest go online,Specially if you live in the US because its hard to find in the store or lets say u might not find it at all.because its not a US phone.
FEATURES:
I still have questions about the memory card since some of my files has been removed when I hard Reset the Phone,and i could not recover it after. for some reason.
AFTER HARD RESET:
Make sure that your Screen Alignments are perfectly done.Or if not then, when u use your nails or stylus specially when you are typing in the screen and playing Games like Bubble Breaker which is my favorite game,it will point into certain direction and you may get pissed off because a lot of mistake keeps on happening.
