What is it: Attractive smart phone with a large touchscreen
What we think: This is HTC's best Windows Mobile phone yet, despite its drawbacks
What you need to know
Reviewed on: 7 November 2008
We like:
Slim design; large screen; HSDPA; Wi-Fi; GPS; 3.5mm headphone jack
We don't like:
Even with TouchFLO 3D Windows Mobile still isn't that finger-friendly
CNET UK judgement:
The HTC Touch HD is HTC's finest Windows Mobile phone yet. A slim casing houses a large, responsive VGA screen. But it's not just about looks because inside this attractive phone lies the heart of a beast. GPS, HSDPA, Wi-Fi and a 3.5mm headphone jack make for a very smart phone -- it's just a shame it doesn't run Android
