HTC HD2: Superb Hardware, Outdated OS

April 3, 2010 - PRLog -- With its gorgeous hardware, speedy Snapdragon processor, and a knockout 4.3-inch display, the HTC HD2 ($200 with a two-year contract from T-Mobile; price as of 4/1/10) seems to be the perfect smartphone. But there's a caveat: The HD2 runs the almost-obsolete Windows Mobile 6.5 operating system. And unfortunately, when Windows Phone 7 Series finally debuts at the end of this year, the HD2 won't be upgradable.

Beautifully Designed

In its hardware, though, the HTC HD2 is hands-down the best Windows Mobile phone currently available. The HD2's minimalist design and its stainless steel and soft black rubber body give it a very classy look. The HD2 is slightly larger than your average smartphone, measuring 4.7 by 2.6 by 0.4 inches thick.

This size might be a turnoff for some, but in my opinion, the tradeoff is worth it: The HD2 is slightly larger to accommodate its brilliant 480-by-800, 4.3-inch WVGA display. The screen was fairly responsive, but I encountered some sluggishness in the software (see "Spotty Performance" below).
