HTC takes the wraps off of the HD2
Today was a pretty big day for HTC. Not only did it have a bunch of new handsets go live on scores of carriers across the globe, but it also announced the HD2. Known best by its codename Leo, the HD2 is the crown jewel of HTC’s Windows Mobile 6.5 offerings if not the envy of every other WinMo handset maker with a spec sheet that reads as follows: 4.3″ WVGA capacitive display, 5 megapixel camera with autofocus and dual-LED flash, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS, G-sensor, 1GHz Snapdragon processor, 512MB ROM / 448MB RAM, 7.2Mbps UMTS/HSPA and HTC’s Sense UI overlay. As it stands, there is no official announcement on the HD2’s USA-bound status, but Slashgear was told by HTC CEO Peter Chou that the HD2 should arrive in the New World sometime in Q1 2010. We hope nothing gets in the way of this because we certainly don’t want to be let down twice.
Sports jackets, and suite jackets have big enough pockets.
I’m not convinced that this won’t still fit into regular pants pockets.
I can’t provide the link at the moment, but there is a website that shows a 3d size comparison between the HD2 and the Iphone, and I think you’ll be rather surprised with how similar they are. This may have a huge screen, but it has very little bezel. It’s just not THAT much bigger. I’ll have to handle one in person to really know.
Yes, AT&T please! We need a better alternative to the iCrap!
MY GAWD THIS FONE IS SEXY !
This phone is due out shortly in the UK and is available on T-Mo and Vodafone from what I’ve seen. Lucky me I’m due an upgrade and this is the front runner with the hero and N900 behind it. Phone looks amazing, smaller than tgo1 but a bigger screen.
This phone has the specs to rival iphone but I dont think it will based on media hype. Regardless, I think it will give good bragging rights over the iClone army!
Rip WinMo out of there and put Android in instead… and I’ll buy two of them!
