HTC Touch HD

HTC are also on the move on a day full of Windows Mobile action. HTC Touch HD is now official and the name pretty much says it all: a high definition screen and touch-based navigation only.

Running on a 528 MHz Qualcomm CPU, HTC Touch HD uses 288 MB of RAM (the same amount as the HTC Touch Pro). Even with a stunning 3.8" screen of WVGA resolution (480 x 800 pixels), the Touch HD measures the acceptable 115 x 62.8 x 12mm. It packs quad-band GSM and dual-band (900/2100 MHz) 3G (with HSDPA) support. Our guess is a second version to cover American 3G frequencies is in the pipeline.Hi quality MP3 ringtone also available.

A whole load of features puts the Touch HD at the top of the HTC portfolio. The TouchFLO 3D user interface is hardly any news but the 5 megapixel autofocus camera is one of a kind in the family. Another notable first-timer is the 3.5mm standard audio jack. The list of extras also includes Wi-Fi, GPS (with A-GPS functionality), Bluetooth (with EDR and A2DP) and USB. The microSD memory expansion slot is there too.

HTC Touch HD will be powered by a 1350 mAh Li-Po battery and will weigh 146.4 grams.
