[dezadaptados]

[brianruiz123456]

Loving mine having it for months no problems.!!

[stuntman4994]

so excited to get this!

[MegaOjr]

[Jlavi25]

anyone notice he said desire than inspire in the beginning?

[KulTobin]

@Jlavi25 He meant that on purpose. He was saying that the Desire and Inspire have the same hardware and ect.

[hello3602]

getting mines tomorrow :)

[MsZEEBOO1996]

mine will be here in 1or2 more days :D

[mdfresh11]

wow it doesnt have a front camera what a loss.... not???

[samylu100]

Getting mine soon. Right now i have a great captivate but going to try out htc

[MrRoygbiv24]

Iphone 4 or Inspire!!??

[morebarsmoreplaces24]

@MrRoygbiv24 inspire 4G. First of all it has 4G enabled, secondly a larger screen (trust me you will want it for the keyboard), third you don't have to load stupid itunes to put something on your phone, and finally you will stand out from the otherwise mediocre crowd.

[MrRoygbiv24]

@morebarsmoreplaces24 Thanks! Yea I just got the Inspire 4G the other day!! I love it! :D

[mrob269]

@MrRoygbiv24 i also dont know what to get

[MrRoygbiv24]

@mrob269 Go for the inspire! I have it now and I freaking love it so much. You won't regret it. You'll actually say "iphone who?" haha Yea so go with the inspire I have no complaints.

[gwmkwan]

just wondering, what is that pin hole near the LED flash?

is that the noise cancellation mic?

[Panchios]

sorry but... whats the difference between inspire 4g and the desire hd? just the 4g? because i really dont understand why is like $100 more expencive that the desire hd if the hardware specs are the same and look the same... thanks

[JustStops]

Watch the cameras test of this phone on my channel and plz subscribe

[TheRealJohnnydinero]

It's crazy how ungrateful people are now "Oh it dosen't have a front facing camera, it's too heavy, the battery pack is hard to get off!" Just shut up and enjoy how awesome this phone is...

[richx87]

My friend, the capacitive buttons have been like that since forever in ALL HTC devices, as the standby button as well.

[philipvipe]

can you turn 3g off? im guessing that htc had this but at&t disabled it (like everything else on their phones) so everyone can go over the limit and pay more with their new "cheap" data plans

[sm753]

Sorry but I know a lot of people with the iPhone 4 and the HTC Evo (both of which have front facing cameras) and NONE of them using video chat...they played with it when they first got their phones but that was it. I think for the greater majority of people - front facing camera will not be a "deal killer".

[HoodRow37]

@sm753 Agreed. If I wanted to see my wife while I talked to her, I definitely wouldn't do it over the phone, lol.

[BaconatorGuy]

@Clone519 psst it is

[Clone519]

@BaconatorGuy uh the Desire HD is the Inspire 4G? 0.o

[xmripper]

I was expecting to you put some other devices next to it to compare how big or thin.

[mightymelee]

Desire HD much

[WinDroidTeam]

Could you please use smartbench for Benchmarktests? It's way more accurate than Quadrant

[1588asd]

the battery is a big fail...1230mAh?? wtf the same battery capacity in the g1...htc this is 2011!!...gosh htc's phones have been crap lately.Atrix has 1930mAh..what a fail phone..its already dead before its even released..

[kamranh3]

Manufacturers wouldn't release a phone unless they knew they could top it, it's all about making money to them. Dual core CPUs on mobiles are probably already outdated to them, not to us though.

[wymonsoon]

the battery is quite a problem~~

[herbcoworker]

Nice. Should be on Sprint though.

[kronicali24]

Am sure these phone companies use a unite strategy, like the incident where all the flat screen tv companies were working together setting market prices.

Is it so hard to make the ultimate high-end phone?

I mean do it as best as you can, don't cut back and use legacy hardware.

[fouxhound]

F*ck at&t!!!!!!

[Curse1Jester]

when does this comeout

[jgp1]

You mean Missed call or receive email, nice review tho :)

[TheChy1225]

Thanks for a great review!!

[faizytechtips]

HSUPA+ WOW! my country is fucking still stuck on GPRS,EDGE (pakistan)

[MichaelJacob02]

@idroidify that was just a joke.

[Brushles83]

Just do a review of the whole friggin phone instead of hardware and then software.

[WHATTYEAHH]

That battery is TINY. My Hero CDMA has a 1500 mAh in it. I wonder how the battery life is.

[SladeNoctis]

Hmm mixed response for the battery door some cant take it off and some can and vise-versa for putting it on.

[jnaldaco]

You went over the hardware on the unboxing video.

Lets here the software overveiw.

[DEVILSNAKELDS]

What wrong with the buttons layout and the power button?! it`s really comfortable.. Just like the Desire Classic Layout

[drtman0]

fail.

htc desire hd battery: 1230 mAh

original desire battery: 1400 mAh

[FakYbiGspiN]

I'm sure there is a way you can remap the keys (rooted obviously.)

[xray174]

the phone looks nice

[Awayze]

This is just a shitty Desire HD but for the US market and with 4G.

HTC Desire is still better cos of its AMOLED, multicolour LED.

[Break2beCool]

Just the same as my Desire HD, even the chrome ear piece.

[MABeezy009]

@Break2beCool yep he says that at the beginning of the video

[ParasValecha]

@Break2beCool Hey, I wanna get myself the Desire HD & I wanna know as more as I can about the experience with this Device? Are you on Twitter or Facebook? If yes, tell me the username. :)

[Break2beCool]

@ParasValecha My facebook profile is Nicky Honings i think, its just your name right?? I do have facebook, but i always are on my ipod. (yep my english is fantastic -_-) so, just try to add me, or i will post some vids about the interface of the desire HD, quality, speed etc.

[ParasValecha]

@Break2beCool I wanna send you a friend request on facebook to connect and learn more about the Desire HD from you as you mentioned. But, there are a lot of Nicky Honings. Can you try to send me an invite. My username on fb is "Paras Valecha" or atleast, you can tell me what your profile picture is on facebook. Thanks anyways. :)

[robanc4]

what the fuck...its a damn HD2 ment to run Android! I'm looking at my HD2 and its the same thing i'm serious just a few hardware tweaks but nothing else

[Pretoriance]

@robanc4 Congratulations, its with all HTC phones now.

Before they had different designs and shit like that. Now every phone is exactly the same but on different carrier.

[Halconandino]

The button layout changes according to the manufacturer.

[ParasValecha]

@Halconandino But, HTC has the same layout on every HTC phone with HTC Sense. Companies like Samsung change it a lot, but HTC doesn't create a mess... :)

[xXWickedNiteXx]

You get a Samsung MicroSD Card on the Inspire? That doesn't look good.

[MrSkurwiwi]

lepszy arc:)

[ParasValecha]

@pocketnowvideo Hey, Brandon. You're videos are the best. But, one thing. HTC never changes the layout of the buttons. It's been like that for all android devices. Samsung and other companies might have been changing. But, HTC always has the same layout of buttons - home, menu, back and search. Love your reviews BTW. :)

[jameslove888]

@ParasValecha They changed it on the Nexus One, but basically everyone phone they've made after the Hero has had the same layout when they moved to 4 buttons.

[ParasValecha]

@jameslove888 The nexus one was a google only phone.. but yeah,, the layout was diff... but, in all htc phones with htc sense.. its the same layout... htc is really great and doesn't mess with the phones... :)

[paulthuong]

I prefer HD7 design!

[ParasValecha]

@paulthuong Did you get yourself the HD7?

[paulthuong]

@ParasValecha No, I'm using a 3GS but I had a chance to hold it and it felt really good in my hand!

[ParasValecha]

@paulthuong My friend has an iPhone 4. I think he is an apple fanboy coz he says that 4.3 inch is too big. Since, you own an iphone and also checked out the HD7. You tell me. Is it really that big that it doesn't look good? Honestly, I love the massive screen and it's a big advantage. Also, brandon said in his unboxing that they are pretty much the same size. What do you think?

[paulthuong]

@ParasValecha It's a perfect size for me, considering I'm 6 feet tall and weigh 185 lbs. The HD7 screen color purity clarity is absolutely amazing even though I've seen iphone 4 and galaxy S screens!

[ParasValecha]

@paulthuong Thanks man.. Are you considering buying a Windows Phone 7 or Android? I am also gonna get myself a new smartphone, I like both OSs but am confused and wanna make a right decision without repenting later.. Tell me about your experience with the HD7... :)

[paulthuong]

@ParasValecha You're welcome! The HD7 is super fast due to the fact it doesn't have multitasking or flash (yet) something like that and camera quality is decent. That's all I can say about it because I only use it for like 20 minutes or so. I think each OS has its pros and cons but Android is the best choice at the moment!

[ParasValecha]

@paulthuong So, 4.3 inch size is great, right? It has many advantages like better video watching, better gaming, better app experience and better web experience on a massive screen. The screen size is a PRO and not a CON. Isn't it?

[lilice1907]

@ParasValecha bigger screen does mean better media experience however bigger screen means it'll drain your battery i know with my epic 4g not to say you won't be able to enjoy the phone but 1230mAh battery isn't the best for a 4inch screen

[bigsteamfan]

Hardware Review in under 60 seconds : It has a screen, 3 buttons, flash, camera in front, camera in back, 4 virtual buttons, a charger/usb port and a music hole ! Done !

[TheBrillowable]

@bigsteamfan fail. it does not have a frontfacing camera. :D

[MrsAmyCastro]

@TheBrillowable Sorry but that does not = a fail .. real life most people do not use them for more then showing off and trying to feel cool !

[MichaelJacob02]

@TheBrillowable really? A phone that doesn't have a front facing camera is a fail to you? Have you ever heard of choice? People who doesn't want a front facing camera can consider this phone. Have you ever thought of that? And with the lowered price, it is a strong contender. Maybe it is not fit for you, but for other people it is. So shame to you, man. You're more of a fail than this phone. Can you make a phone? No. So yeah. you're way more of a fail. Shame to you.

...and that was just a joke

[ThePsychoGamer1337]

@MichaelJacob02 hes not saying the phone is a fail, someone said the phone has a front facing camera and he is saying bigsteamfan is a fail

[TheBrillowable]

@ThePsychoGamer1337 thanks. someone actually reading the comments i'm answering to before flaming.

[MichaelJacob02]

@ThePsychoGamer1337 yeah that was just a joke

[ParasValecha]

@MichaelJacob02 Hey, awesome comment! :) Also, your WP7 was awesome and I loved it!

[noodl34u]

@TheBrillowable you fail. he did say hat it is NOT a fronfacing camera

[Ricardovs95]

@TheBrillowable Frontfacing already exists in Europe about 1/2 years ago and it's not that exiting...

[quimerapt]

@Ricardovs95 yeah my sony ericsson 2 year old phone does frontfacing chat

[liomessibarca10]

@bigsteamfan Music hole? xDDDD

[bigsteamfan]

@liomessibarca10 I forgot to say speaker and a music hole, the music hole being the 3.5 mm jack, but I guess it serves dual purpose now, speaker and jack.. Dual music hole !!

[ldimillo19]

@bigsteamfan a music hole? you're an idiot.

[bigsteamfan]

@ldimillo19 It is a joke, you angry troll ! Please go back under your bridge and never come out...

[lilice1907]

@bigsteamfan rumplestilskin! xD

[ericgeving]

@bigsteamfan Obviously you have no idea what you are talking about..

[TheShatteredPieces]

lol
