Overview of HTC HD2
This product has now been discontinued. There are no direct alternatives however we would recommend looking at:
The HTC HD2 is the upgrade to the very popular HTC Touch HD.
A massive 4.3 inch WVGA touch screen display and HTC Sense User Interface offers a user experience like nothing before. Video, pictures, movies or web browsing on the HTC HD2, in terms of screen size,will satisfy even the biggest multimedia fan.
The first HTC device to include the powerful 1GHz processor, the HD2 offers performance and reliability that is second to none on a Windows Phone.
The large screen and fast processor of the HTC HD2 go hand-in-hand with the built-in GPS Antenna. The screen is perfect for the 3D-mapping of CoPilot Live 8, while the fast processor ensures that the software runs smoothly.
Windows Mobile 6.5 is included on the device. This new powerful and flexible OS offers any HD2 user the ability to connect to emails, internet pages, social networks like Facebook and much more.
Pair this with the HTC Sense interface and the most important information and features are close at hand, with minimal effort required to access such. Want to know the weather where you are? The sense interface will automatically pick up your location and update the information accordingly.
On board are the standard Windows Phone features, including Mobile Office, Marketplace, Facebook and My Phone. Connect to these applications through a WiFi or HSPA connection, which subsequently ensures that wherever you are you can remain connected.
The 3.5mm audio jack allows you to connect your favourite headphones, whilst using the multimedia tools that are stored on the device or a memory card installed in the microSDHC memory card slot.
Built for pure finger touch control, you can zoom in and out of documents, web pages, pictures and more with a simple pinch, no stylus is needed.
Automatic light sensor controls the backlight level on your device assisting in conservation of battery power, whilst also locking the device screen during a call to avoid accidental touches.
Want a smartphone that is fast, reliable and offers an experience like nothing before? Consider the HTC HD2.

"Bought this phone as a replacement for my HTC S620 which hooked me onto Windows Mobile. I wanted a phone which could better the iPhone and basically be my organiser, MP3 Player and phone all in one. What I got thorugh the post after ordering it was a beast. The HTC HD2 does everything you could want it to do with extreme multimedia, organisation, practical capibilities and is very fun to use with the immense power that is Windows Mobile. In my opinion beats the iPhone hands down and sets a high bar for all other smartphones on the market with its innovation, UI (HTC Sense) and speed (thanks to the Snapdragon processor). Easy to use, fast, a great piece of kit resulting from convergence. One word. Brilliant" |

"Had this phone a month now. Great phone/pocket pc/pda/iplayer and great service from Clove. Lots of 's. Here's a couple of -'s. 1. The touch screen is very sensitive and I find myself having to continually correct typos. Maybe it's just practice I need however, HTC are to introduce a stylus compatible with this screen which will be a major . Writing to Notes and Word will be much easier and quicker. Get a move on HTC. 2. Having a problem with text messaging (Vodafone) The phone says the text has gone but doesn't actually leave the phone it hangs about in the outbox (traditional view) you know it hasn't gone but there is no menu option to resend. Anyone else experience this problem? " |

"Another moment of brilliance from HTC. Since I got my hands on a TyTn II I decided HTC will forever be my phone brand. Forget the iphone I think its overated but well marketed. Am now seeking to upgrade to HD2 though I will miss my quarty keyboard. Was planning to go for Touch Pro 2 but HTC gave me no choice with the release of HD2...Am surely going for this Gizmo!" |

"Had mine about a week now. Initial thoughts "just another windows PC/phone" Having said that, the more I use this beast the better it gets. Previously I had a Garmin PDA and separate phone. Worked (still works) great but decided to combine the two. Take the time to learn and get the beast set up to your preferences and she's great. As others have said, sometimes Windows shows through, but that is a minor niggle. 3rd party apps? Haven't a clue. Still learning. Enjoy "The Beast". Clove, thank you for your prompt service, notifications and delivery." |

"Clove is 100% reliable store. This is the 3rd phone I've purchased here (had bought 2 HTC Touch HD before). I'm VERY IMPRESSED by the performance speed of the HD2. Beautiful interface too. Needs much fewer tweaks than HD to customize it to my taste (thnx to xda developers forum :))).Will get the official capacitive stylus, and I'm pretty sure that'll fulfill my needs." |

"I have been wanting a device like this for years, just had to wait until the technology caught up. Once I got used to a 4" vga screen with my old hx4700 I never wanted to go back. This device has so much more than a standard PDA, it's incredible. Glad I already ordered mine, even if I'll only be able to get EDGE speeds in the US, it's well worth the price and I won't have to wait until it gets bundled up with a US telcom..." |

"They got everything right except for the most important (FRONT CAMERA) why, why do they do that, they give you everything except 1 thing, the most important and now you seriously have to consider giving up the CPU speed for front camera and get the DIAMOND2!" |

|
"Mixing the gloriously big and bright capacitive iphone screen with the configurability and power of Windows mobile, and pushing the limits of each further with a super-size screen, HTC's own WM front-end and a hefty faster processor, this should make for a fascinating device. Although not cheap, if it saves me from packing a Diamond2 and an iphone into neighbouring pockets, it's a bargain." |

"Ouah!just amazing!such power in an acceptable weight and a thin size. Once again Htc shows us is incredible talent in making mobile phones.Now,with this real beast, windows mobile users will increase drasticly. So,are you gong to buy it? For me,I'd say go for it and you will enter in a new world of technology like never before. As always,the best place to have it quickly and surely is Clove technology. So come on let's have it. Thanks HTC and Clove!!!!! " |
