Comparisons Featuring HTC HD7S
Short Review
- The HTC HD7S features a solid build with dimensions of 122 x 68 x 11.2 mm and a weight of 162g, providing a sturdy feel in hand.
- Its 4.3-inch S-LCD display offers a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 217 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks sharpness for high-definition content.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm QSD8250 Snapdragon S1 chipset with a 1.0 GHz Scorpion CPU and Adreno 200 GPU, complemented by 576MB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking.
- The camera is a 5 MP rear unit with autofocus, capable of recording 720p video, but it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- The 1230mAh battery capacity provides limited endurance, and it does not support fast or wireless charging.
- Running on Microsoft Windows Phone 7, the software experience is straightforward but may feel outdated compared to modern operating systems.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 2.1, but it lacks 5G support and NFC capabilities.
- The device does not feature stereo speakers, but it includes a standard headphone jack for audio output.
- Overall, the HTC HD7S is a basic smartphone that meets essential needs but falls short in performance and features compared to contemporary devices.
