The HD2 runs Windows Mobile 6.5 but uses HTC’s Sense UI, which brings various applications to the home screen for a more customizable and intuitive user experience. The 4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen with 480x800 WVGA resolution is simply gorgeous. With such a large screen, the phone is inevitably hefty (at 4.74" tall by 2.64" wide and at 5.54 ounces), yet manages to remain slim at just 0.43 inches deep. It has a built-in accelerometer, proximity sensor, haptic response, plus multi-touch support for pinch-and-zoom gesture commands.
The HD2 has a lot to offer for pleasure. You can download videos from Blockbuster’s On Demand, watch live and on-demand TV with MobiTV, and view video content from YouTube. Boasting Windows Media Player, it allows you to play videos and audio files in AVI, MP4, WMV, MP3, AAC, WMA and more formats. You also get a Barnes & Noble eReader app for downloading and reading books on the screen. Apart from these, the device itself comes with two movies and five games.
By connecting to Wi-Fi or T-Mobile’s 3G network, the HD2 lets you browse the web with Opera Mobile 9.7 or Internet Explorer Mobile 6. Other pre-installed goodies include TeleNav GPS Navigator, HTC Peep (Twitter client) and Remote Desktop Mobile. You can find more productive apps from Windows Marketplace for Mobile. Matching all these great features, the smartphone comes equipped with a 1GHz Snapdragon processor to speed up everything.
Moreover, composing a text or multimedia message is blazingly fast using either the traditional onscreen QWERTY keyboard or the Swype keyboard. Instant messaging options are extensive, including AIM, Google Talk, MySpace IM, Yahoo Messenger and Windows Live Messenger. The phone syncs with Microsoft Outlook and Exchange Server accounts with Direct Push E-mail. And with Microsoft Office Mobile, you can view PowerPoint and PDF files, and edit Word and Excel documents.
In addition, the HD2 has voice commands, stereo Bluetooth, a standard 3.5mm headset jack, a speakerphone and a 5-megapixel camera/camcorder with digital zoom and 2x LED flash. About 600MB of free user memory is on board and users can expand the storage with a microSD card up to 32GB.
All these features add up to a beautiful and mighty smartphone that can replace your portable media player. Whether you want to watch a movie, browse the web or read a novel on the go, the HTC HD2 will give you a whole new experience.
