I just got myself a new work phone. It is a HTC Desire HD and want to share this little review of it with you. My first impression is that it is a nice phone that is very easy to use. I didn’t take me long to get it connected to Wi-Fi and to make it upgrade to newest version of Android. It has a lot of the tools and apps preinstalled that I needed the most and it is very easy and fast to download the rest through the Android marked. The touch screen is working very well and response quick and smooth. At first I had a little issue with the lock/unlock function that sometime unlocked the phone by accident. However it was solved with the newest update of Android.
What I liked about the HTC Desire HD
-
-
- Very easy to use, fast and simple.
- Great big touch screen.
- It works great with the Android OS.
- The camera is very good for a smartphone I think, something that HTC has not always been good at.
-
What i disliked about the HTC Desire HD
-
-
- The battery life is an issue
- It might seems like a very big phone to carry around

want to know more about smartphone.
really tempted to get this phone but not sure about the size how much do you notice it when you are carrying it about or is it something you just get used to.Thanks for the review
I had the same concern at first when I got it, but I would say that I have got use to it and I really love the big screen.
Might have to go for it cheers tom.From trying one of my friends out the other week thats what made me look into this phone the screen, it really does look great and surfing the web was very fast which I didnt expect.
HTC makes great phones. One thing a really like about is the large screen.
I really love the big screen too. Great for Internet, pictures and video.
HTC has always been designing stat of the art smartphones for the world, i hope we will be watching some quality smartphones from HTC in 2012 also. Excellent Post.
Hi Sonia
I can only agree. HTC are making great phones. Both my phones at the moment are from HTC.
Nice phone but a little bit outdated don’t you think. I wait for HTC One X. It rocks!
Well I guess that is always a problem with Smartphones. They are very fast going to be old news 😉
I know what you mean, i have a Galaxy S for a few months and i feel like it’s not moving anymore. It’s a fast growing industry…and hungry for our money.
Interesting review indeed.Although there are some issues that makes the choice little difficult but accessing the phone with a very ease is something that can attract really.
the video is amazing and only thing i didnt like is that it has very less internal memory. any how its a great phone

I don’t have one to test, but you can find a review of the phone here: http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/20/htc-surround-review/
This is a very good article! Thanks for making this information interesting about HD Smartphone.I know each and everything about this phone.HTC has great features and good services, HTC Phone Store specializes in providing the best and latest unlocked and rooted HTC Phones.Also you can get playbook apps, blackberry playbook, playbook, blackberry playbook apps ander one roof.
This smartphone is selling very well and it is not a surprise for me. HTC does a great job developing easy to use and powerful mobiles. A lot of companies are “stealing” from them!
Hi Rashmi
It is indeed a great phone. The biggest problem I have with mine is that the battery does not last long. If you have turned on both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi you need to charge it every day.
Wait till its a few months old.. The battery life becomes a BIG issue..
The battery is the biggest issue for most HTC phones I think.
I thought HTC is just nothing when it comes to phones and tabs but I was wrong. It was doing a really great job in the industry. Some people find other phones difficult to use but this one is easy and its great.
guru

Hi Vicky
According to HTC’s own website that is correct:

I find HTC as one of the most affordable mobile phone available in the market right now. I am planning to buy one though cause I still have my symbian platform and now I want to go for android because of its features. As brother told me, much better than any other platform plus the free apps that I could also get if I will have an android phone with me.
Thanks for sharing this true review. it would be helpful for buyers to buy the product.
HTC mobiles are always have good features like quality camera, easy feather touch and etc.
