HTC Desire HD review, photos and price details
At HTC Desire , successful twin brother of Nexus One, have gone a couple of successors, the HD Desire and Desire Z , two telephones very different in commercially oriented control layout, design or hardware chosen, but are called to lead Android sales of high-end Smartphones Christmas.
We have decided to carry out analysis of HTC HD Desire , which is more an adaptation to market trends than a natural replacement of the original Desire, in which major differences were found in a screen of 4.3 inches , a new generation of chipset Snapdragon , and a camera that goes to 8 megapixels.
In regard to software, we Android in its penultimate version, 2.2, together with the interface HTC Sense, for some the better customization of the operating system from Google, this time with interesting new features and services added.
HTC Desire HD, HTC design and quality
Apart from the size of the phone, the first thing that catches our attention, positively, is the quality of materials used, very nice in the hand, which improve grip and are enemies of fingerprints.
The building itself is also remarkable (with small gaps), something we expect from HTC in this range. The body of a metal piece gives the unit a solid feel important.
In matters of design, just look at the pictures, we might consider a mix of HTC Desire and HTC HD2, taking design cues from the first, with the proportions of the second, and I'm sure is an idea that many were expecting.
I especially like that they have taken the front surface to virtually screen due to the size of it, if they had placed a generous framework, the phone ended up being too big. It is fair to say that balance is less than screen size / dimensions of my favorite terminal, the Samsung Galaxy S.
Course provides new details such as recessed back design where the camera goes; it shares in keeping with the original battery cover, right, and bottom cover for the SIM and microSD memory slot. Not everyone liked this solution, design and implementation, as it does not fit tightly.
The dual tone colors in parts of the terminal is a new identity in the Taiwanese firm, we will see more terminals, like the new Windows Phone 7.
Also delighted to continue to use the LED reporters, this time on the screen, we find the ambient light sensor and proximity. The navigation buttons are capacitive Android, and as you can see, the trackpad is gone, and this is already a consumer's taste, but it is something that virtually no use.
Great phone, ride or walk With it
In this case goes pretty well, but again emphasized that there is no phone with better proportions such as the Samsung S Galaxy , with 4 inch in hand seem much less, and somehow conditioned me to appreciate the overwhelming weight and dimensions model HTC (they are 4.3 inches), and that the frame is pretty well spent.
Far is a 4 iPhone with its 3.5 inch, but better I leave you with a brief comparison of size and weight to its main competitors in the market:
Huge display of remarkable quality
After Nexus One and HTC Desire, was not expected to change the technology of AMOLED by LCD , but Samsung is having problems supplying screens to its members and has chosen to use screens Super LCD , detail that even affects Nexus S in its all version , and who knows if in any market.
Given that the screen is one of the main attractions of HTC Desire HD , at least for its size, would have been great to meet with AMOLED , or even Super AMOLED , but the truth is their quality is pretty good. Its size is 4.3 inches, and standard resolution, 800 x 480 pixels.
Next to a Samsung S Galaxy could say that has worse viewing angles, black worse, and therefore also lower contrast. If you set it next to an iPhone 4, the resolution speaks for itself; you can see the pixels pretty easily, plus some less vivid colors.
In its favor that the colors do not appear as saturated as in the super AMOLED, has enough power at maximum brightness, and behaves quite well outdoors. On the table we also need to assess their technology, older, consume more energy than options AMOLED.
Which is really good is on the sensitivity of the capacitive unit, which together makes navigating large and point in different elements is more comfortable than normal. I do not want to give a wrong idea of the screen, is more remarkable for most applications we can give , especially in video playback or browsing, but it is a reality that competition is betting on more modern technologies .
HTC Fast boot, fast booting
One of the innovations that bring new Desire by HTC is the quick start , and that unless you remove the battery, you can power cycle the device in seconds, since practically it does is fall asleep that off.
In the next video we see first the conventional starter, and from minute one and ten seconds, the restart released in this phone:
