nc video....how is your cpu core freq? i am on revolution hd v6.3.1 and with deamon controller at 1.15ghz governor:ondemand i made 1897 score on quadrant....after i turned governor:perfomnance and increased my cpu freq to 1,8ghz and i made 58,7fps on neocroe and 2899 point on quadrant.
Desire HD's a shocker. Not only is it a monstrous piece of engineering, what it tries to be is what it's worst at.
The nice large screen is a selling feature, so they add a screen that is quite frankly well past it's sell by date. No retina, no amoled, just a basic screen made larger.
Then there's the performance, it's so sluggish, browsing the net takes a month. The call quality is terrible, the biggest reason is because it's so quiet, you don't hear it ring. Finally, battery life is a shocker
The Desire HD isn't exactly pocket-friendly. We’ve been making calls with the thing and holding it against your face not only makes your hand ache, but feels a little daunting, even if the call quality is perfectly fine. The screen resolution matches most of the top Android devices, but doesn't quite give you the sharpness of the Apple iPhone 4. Like the others it does have a glossy finish, so reflections will be a problem and viewing it next to a window or outdoors will never be easy.
Unfortunately, we are not so impressed with the overall quality of the phone. It doesn’t feel cheap but we wouldn’t classify it as a top-shelf model either. The rear of the device has plastic inserts which are disjointed, you can see the gaps on pictures of the phone. The size of the phone instantly turns us off, it can fit in the pocket, but it's certainly not comfortable. Other problems include the screen quality and battery life. It's strange to see these faults in a high end smartphone.
iPhone 4 or htc? Two phones side by side. One Is the size of a breeze block and one a mobile phone. One sold £3million within an hour of launch, one still has to reach that target. One is made of hardened glass panels front and rear, one a back with badly fitting plastic bits. One will last more than a days charge, one will be dying come mid day. One is loud, you don't miss calls, one is quiet and tinny. One has thoudands more apps. One has thousands more accessories available. Up to you ?????
TechRadar has reviewed a lot of phones. And the fact that this is statistically the worst of the bunch is testament to how bad it is.
Whether the 2.2 update has made it better is doubtful. On this huge device, it's like trying to perform micro surgery to use
The laggy user interface was made all the more perplexing by the fact this was supposed to use a power friendly Qualcomm Snapdragon 1GHz processor - with the battety life alone, never have we wanted to throw a phone out the window more.
This htc is just humongous, thanks but no thanks.
However, if you "Desire" a heavy breeze block of a phone with poor screen resolution, terrible battery life, poor build quality, shabby plastics, awful sound quality, a ringtone too quiet too hear,a lack of applications, no gyroscope for decent games and a poor resale value, then this is the device for you!
My dhd get 1942 on the free quadrant standard benchmark.. all stock.. is runs slower r when usb mode isn't in debug.. so there is a bug in the software..
Can you benchmark again with quadrant pro so we can see what the score is made up of? Would be interesting to compare it to some of the galaxy s scores of 2000+..
why compare it to the galaxy, its in 3rd place, its not really competition, if anything, compare it to the nexus, plus its score is more than double of the galaxy anyway, a bit more than a little :D
Actually I am Brazilian, but I'll import this phone. I have a nexus one, and I'm mad desire to buy htc hd. If you have any news about the release, please let me know in the e-mail: leosl81@hotmail.com. Thanks.

The Desire HD is quite frankly garbage. I was expecting a nice aluminium rear, not a rear full of cheap plastic panels.
The screen is terrible, why no amoled or retina? I sent an email to HTC, the response was "it would reduce battery life"
What flaming battery life, it sucks!
Previous phones I've bought, I have done so off the net, thank goodness I went to the store and tried this thing out,
The iPhone 4 is slim and beautiful, a real status symbol. Be beaten one day, but not by this brick.

The iPhone looks so much sleeker and smooth. At the end of the day, every single mobile phone company are trying replicate the iPhone.
So many times they have tried, but keep failing. Touchscreen phones were brought out for ease of use, but they cant understand that.
Then, all these buttons on the front of them, yet none of them swith the phone out of standby mode, you have to use the main power button at the top.
With such a humongous device as the desire hd, that's a real two handed operation.

After very careful consideration and reading a number of reviews I had no option than to choose The iPhone 4.
The Desire HD seems to drink battery life like a tramp drinks special brew?!
The Desire HD is also way too big for me. If I want a small HD screen to watch movies I'll probably buy a lap top!
Putting the Desire HD in your pocket is fine, but be very careful when sitting down.
Plastic battery and sim tray covers, poor reception, shocking battery life, no lens cover.
No Thanks!

Apple Sells 3 Million iPhone 4 Units in 3 Weeks. This figure is expected to be closer to 20 Million when sales go overseas.
HTC hope to emulate astounding 5 million sales of the Samsung Galaxy S with the Desire HD?
Just a couple of page titles copied for you. I think the above figures show which phone is the most wanted.
HTC should stick to making accessories.
