Comparisons Featuring HTC Touch HD

Short Review

  • The HTC Touch HD features a sleek design with dimensions of 115 x 62.8 x 12 mm and a weight of 146g, making it comfortable to hold.
  • Its 3.8-inch TFT resistive touchscreen offers a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 246 ppi.
  • Performance is powered by a Qualcomm MSM7201A chipset with a 528 MHz ARM 11 CPU and 288MB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking.
  • The 5 MP rear camera includes autofocus but lacks optical image stabilization, and video recording is limited to CIF at 30fps.
  • The battery capacity is 1350mAh, which is modest and does not support fast or wireless charging.
  • Running on Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, the software experience may feel outdated compared to modern standards.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The device has a standard headphone jack, allowing for wired audio connections.
  • Overall, the HTC Touch HD combines a solid build with basic features, but its performance and software may not meet contemporary expectations.
  • Special features are minimal, focusing primarily on essential smartphone functions.
