HTC HD2: Using the Multitouch Screen

[SuperUni10]

i quite confused with statement "multi touch". Sorry for ignorance just wanna know could somebody explain to me what is multitouch means

[choudu1234]

@SuperUni10 it's quite simple. Multitouch is when the screen is capable of registering more than 2 fingers touching the screen. So basically 3 points or more (3 fingers or more). A big confusion between dual touch and multiouch often happens. Dual touch is when only 2 fingers are registered. They are quite limited and often have difficulty tracking finger movements. And therefore they are only good for pinch to zoom. Dual touch: HTC g1, Hero, Desire, Nexus 1. Multitouch: iphone, Wildifire, Hd7

[fleurten1]

Going to order it its just beautiful

[uczz57b]

love this phone definitely will get it, but that glass case front can break easily. so use some protection on this booty call....

[charu90909]

my mom bought this fone and wont buy me one :'(

[xRuFFZx]

I just ordered it .. Getting it tomorrow .. cant wait !

[ahryze]

I am looking toward getting the iphone 4 because its smaller compare to the HTC. thats kind of large to put in ones pocket. the phone looks nice if you wanna carry a 17" monitor around.

[MyPhoneification]

Do you know where the bathroom is?

[exilius333]

For anyone who doesn't know, HTC sells a capacitive touch screen "stylus" for this phone... I'm guessing it transfers the capacitance from your finger to the screen... :D

[kennercrew]

this shit is nice hmm iphone need to do some major work now the icons look like there floating

[TheHalodude1232]

is it on att now or did u unlock it

[scruffyrunkin]

iphone just got smoked! and tmobile lets you get insurance for this phone. yeah, iphone really got smoked! caugh!!

[eyou10]

this is tight!!! say goodbye to my iphone!!!

[fuadali16]

iphone doesent have both flashes lol

[BoxheadBountyHunter]

john4lakers is bettr then u!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WilliamNL1]

its a good phone, but the battery life sucks.

[kiosterud044]

@WilliamNL1 so do all smartphones, buddy.

[girlsdrinkfeck]

@WilliamNL1 the battery life is better trhan the iphones tho :) , consdiering its a superior screen size and resolution and nearly twice as fast , its very good 

[MrLeonX]

HD2 is nice but i wish it's sentivity stuff is more like the iphone D:

[DawnOfEos]

@MrLeonX I also with it had the iphone appstore but it can't be perfect. Its not bad though and that is an immense compliment to any winmo phone.

[Juan25822]

iPhone is missing flash which this phone carries so ima drop the iPhone and use this one till the 4g one comes out

[azhiaboo123]

Evo...

[kazper333]

Lol if they put this phone on Android only then u will have a winner but since Windows

Mobile phones are crap and outdated and isn't even a competitor to iPhone I mean it's a Professional not even in the same category , only like a blackberry vs hd2 or other windows mobiles but it's not enough for me I will wait and see what's coming this Summer

[CutePrincess05]

Yeah I'm starting to think its better than the iphone!

its kind of big but its nice!

[opeanlastampan]

I LIKE HTC HD 2 ...THE BEST PHONE 2010..

[hatimi2007]

Thanks i have got one nice phone & you show me what i was looking for

[jonas1995fly]

I'm totally buying this phone!

[nonick4me2]

im with u :D

[fuadali16]

@jonas1995fly do not my friend wait for the evo

[ZOOM4461]

@jonas1995fly wats price???

[HarrisonFurtz]

best smartphone at the time, i got it for 2 months, its touchscreen is unbelievable beautifull.

just the batterie is to weak ...

[kaye0025]

@HarrisonFurtz Waahh Really? For How Many Hours Does It Last?

[HarrisonFurtz]

@kaye0025 when you are using it non-stop (internet, emails,...) about 3 or 4 hours .... that sucks, but you can by a better batterie with 2300 mAh than its about 6 or 7 hours.

[kaye0025]

@HarrisonFurtz Aha.. Well It's Not That Bad I Guess:P Thanks:))

[kry0bas]

3or 4 hours are at a very excessive use of the internet function! My phone lasts with normal usage one and a half day! including internet, listen to music, sms and of course phonecalls!

[astrak1001]

I have a Diamond and honestly I don't use the stylus all that often, even in Windows Mobile interfaces and it's fairly accurate. I'm running sense UI on it right now and it works great.

[LTavaresss]

The Diamond gets bad after some time D: believe me (Y) after the diamond u should be getting a great smartphone like this one (YY) but the Diamond is one of the most beautiful phones I've seen :DD

[astrak1001]

I've had to replace it once, luckily I pay insurance and Sprint replaces them no questions asked. As soon as Tmobile US gets the phone I'll probably be switching to the HD2.

[LTavaresss]

Just got it, its miniman!

[LTavaresss]

LMAO I never understand what he says, I was just wandering about it when I saw ur comment, I think is minimat, minimum oõ idk, plz help me xD

[deddyded]

so its a nerdphone.. nothing fun just nerds having the newest nerd mobile

[LTavaresss]

its not a nerdphone D: Imagine how cool u r going to pull when u unveil this giant cool cellphone in front of others! :D Idk about u, but at my school having a cellphone like that is pretty cool! Jackoff hater :P

[aragon89]

you can slide at 7:48 in settings like in "coverflow"

[VandonBan]

What kinda screen does it have??/

Oled??? :D

[LTavaresss]

WVGA

[Ookeuj]

i read on a block that the HTC HD 2 breaks all record witch records are they ?

i want to buy a htc hd 2 but dont now not enough about the phone

greets !

[LTavaresss]

Bigger screen in the smaller mobile possible, speed record (I guess), first WinMo phone with capacitive touch screen, standby record and some other stuff

[slaveofpain1337]

yeah the old wm menu @ 7:46 is a little bit tricky, but u dont have to hit those buttons on the bottom on the screen u can flick trough the menus like in the htc sense mode. only flick with ur finger from the left to the right and/or the other way round!

[victoroos]

2:27, how did you put that basic message down there, it says something like brandon miniman etc??

[XRaymodel]

XPERIA X10 or HTC HD2?

[dimitrismpower]

Definitely the HD2 :)

[yanniz4eva]

HTC HD2 without a doubt. You won't be disappointed :)

[gabre80]

this video is not a normal speed, its above normal speed.

cheating....

[BluChimera]

If only it had US 3G i'd be so on top of this one. It'd replace my phone + NIT...but no 3g ....sigh.

[24ecko]

@BluChimera its coming to tmobile USA in march

[BluChimera]

Thanks! I was just looking at that :) Though I must say, if it only supports T-Mobile 3g ala Nokia N900 it's a loss to HTC. I know many people who would prefer ATT would outright buy the unlocked version of the device if it also supported ATT 3g. I guess, we'll see.

[eenbox]

AT&T 3G makes your unlocked device reboot all the time... I tried 6 different nokia's that were unlocked and determined that AT&T is intentionally screwing the things up - therefore I will not get ATT never ever...

[BluChimera]

So really if what you say is true it's' pick your poison' 'cause TMOB has the shittiest coverage (even with 2g) ever. But I live in the sticks so at home it's eiter wifi or edge. Though I do travel to Hawaii and Boston. Even Boston (a huge city) I bounce between 3g and edge. So I still want the phone. The Nexus1 is cool but I don't like android. After years of MAEMO Android is not intuitive at all. Would get n900 but screen is small.

[BluChimera]

Never had ATT reboot issues with unlocked devices. Dunno, maybe they fear this phone.

[spectky11]

i have difficulties in selecting and delete one files from so many files. Whenever i touch i just go into that folder. I can't select only one and delete that. anybody has answer

[nick83366650]

Normally with windows mobile you would press and hold which brings up a menu and then select delete or whatever I can only assume its the same with this phone.

[SebbzN]

i cant that keyboard thing up :S

where u can select other types of keyboards

[dinesh29888]

Awsome review bro !! Video 10 Audio 10 !!

[tommycp29]

yeah skyfire.

i was though about getting sony experia x10 but HTC make me change my mind now

[OnlineFck]

damn windows mobile

why not android

[OnlineFck]

but it's ok for this

i would love get one on my hand

[globeterminator]

its the only window mobile which attracts the attention

[upstreammiami]

god damn this is a huge chocolate bar.. its fucking huge lmao ..fuck that

[william9545]

@upstreammiami

ITS THINNER THAN THE IPHONE AHHAHAHHAAHHAHHAHHAHAHA

[Brozium]

iphone killer here?

[blaster17363]

@Brozium Probably, if it had shipped with Windows Phone 7

[tommymxr]

@Brozium remove that question mark.

[Brozium]

@tommymxr 9 months ago it was. now with android...

[woestijnvis07]

Venomfangx?!

[Bloodygator]

does it has azerty keyboard?(in europe)

[01wickedboy]

i saw that you have at&t. how come it won't go on 3g speed only on edge?

[1goonerforlife4]

guys/ girls shall i get the HTC HD2 or the milestone (droid) when it hits the uk?? i use my phone mostly for txting, calling (obviously lol) internet, simple games and music and internet. i know both phones in terms of hardware will do but what about the OS???

[viktorftw]

Id say HTC, mine is coming today. Cant wait !!

[1goonerforlife4]

let me know how you get on ! :)

[doublesizzle]

hows it treating you

[bigpizza112]

Look at the difference between htc touch hd and hd2, now if the same difference would be present at hd2 and hd3 then... (OMG)

[alan2195]

Which is better the htc hd2 or the iPhone 3g??

[BRONKOinc]

Htc Hd2 DUH ?

[ohhbala]

Fuckin I phone dick holes ... get your hands of this shit .. This is for people with some bling in the head ...

[jorgehsb2]

good video

[MajorrBison]

i have no doubt on my mind that this phone is a beast.

[renuthuf65]

best review ever

[GaZD200]

LOL@ "Windows Mobul" XD

[airwaterdirt]

come to mamma!

[Shassouneh]

Apple should be shaking in their boots. So now that Windows Mobile has a capacitive screen, is a more open platform and doesn't force you to do everything the "Apple" way, what reason do people have to use thta over pruiced over hyped peice of junk. I can't wait for the T-Mobile version of this :D :)

[girlsdrinkfeck]

im so gettign this phone , people say windows mobile sucks , but 6.5 is reallyl good , even tho its same as windows mobile 6 with a different interface , it looks just as smooth as the fastest iphone and obviously has more features and use

[BigAussieBloke69]

I cant wait for this to come out in Australia!!!

I hate the american version of the Office, it really killed the quality of the original Engilsh version. Americans can't copy shows or movies, they allways fuck them up some how.

[rajeshj]

better than aussies and their shitty tv shoes

[BigAussieBloke69]

No its not. Brithish & Australian comedy is among the best in the world. American comedy is the exact same as British but put into different wording. Americans cant make a funny show without having to steel other quotes or lines from Britich or Australian TV. And its not just the comedy, its the whole fact of Americans stelling other TV shows & calling them their own, then completely fucking them up, e.g The Office, Life on Mars, Kath & Kim,

C u dont know because ur a narrow minded cunt.

[DigitalGamma]

Move to Toronto Brandon. We finally have 1900mhz 3G/HSPA :D

[Marcus240392]

On the end. In the settings menu you can just swipe your finger to get to the next tab, why tap the small button? Or is this just wm 6.5.1?

[VictorPak]

I think that's only in "6.5.1"

But in 6.5 you can tap on the "Appearence" tab and slide to "Items", similarly to the TouchFLO 3D scroll bar.

But I get what Brandon is trying to say. Unchecking "Use this picture as the background" may need a few times

[VictorPak]

Oh, I was wrong!

You can!

[tohaklim]

Good video. For all those games requests-no good games on wm, no games using multitouch

[skitzthegemini]

I still think the Touch Pro2 zoom bar beats pinch to zoom because pinch to zoom requires you to either set the phone down or use two hands.

Slide to zoom > pinch to zoom

[VictorPak]

But it won't do contextual zooming...

You can pinch in the exact spot you need to zoom... this is extremely helpful in internet browsing.

So I'll stick to pinch zoom

[skitzthegemini]

It zooms on the spot you have centered. I've never had a problem with it. Although I also see no need for a Fart app so maybe I'm just behind the times. iPhone people have it all figured out.

[VictorPak]

I don't see what fart apps have to do with pinch zooming.. Concerning the zoom thing, I guess it's an individual preference. I like the slide to zoom too (i used to use a version of Opera with an onscreen slider) but I still prefer the pinching because it's faster.

Anyway, the HD2 will be a huge improvement over my Kaiser

[ZealotZeratul]

Yes, you have a point. But there is still the double-tap-to-zoom feature.

[jagjagin]

haah he failed to show a con.

[lee0sensei]

brandon, WM 6.5 is limited to show 65k colours (i don't remember well), does it have the same number of colours when displaying a video on HD2?

[thewebmogul]

ZZZZZZ falling asleep has this is just basic stuff already know this since it first came out and same thing you hear all over the Youtube. If you want to see my htc in action what it can do go to my channels

[stoferr]

We dont want to watch an old Touch Pro 2!. We want to see the HD2 in action, and that's what Pocketnow does.

[macbookpro57]

old? the touch pro 2 came out to the u.s. like a couple months ago, i dont really call that old

[thewebmogul]

shit the fuck up prick. Dont be jealous because we all know the video is a joke and boring. Also moron Touch Pro2 is not old idiot it been out only 2months. Also HD2 is similar to TP2 moron. So dont be jealous because TP2 is still great phone.

[stoferr]

Why the hell should i be jalous? I already got the HD2 so why the hell should i be jalous? Show me the logic dumbass

[thewebmogul]

Sure i can show you logic you dumbass has it shows you can't even spell right. There is your logic you dumbfuck. also your hd2 is fricken big like your head is hahaha my htc touch pro 2 is still better has at least i can view it in landscape mode and hd2 you cant. you understand dumbass. hahha

[stoferr]

You don't even know what the hell you're talking about. The HD2 isn't much bigger than the Iphone, it just got a huge screen. btw your videos sucks and cant even be compared Pocketnow.. At least they know what they're talking about..

Just because you're jalous on us europeans because we got the HD2 and you have to wait untill 2010... And whenever it arrives in america you cant even afford it, dumbass

[thewebmogul]

Haha you for sure dont know shit has only thing big is your head hahaah HD2 is twice has big than iphone. you even said it has a big screen so yes it big. you europeans are bunch of crossiants has jealous hahha i am not has i am already enjoying my Htc TP2 you european bastard. us americans should not even help you people out. trust me i can afford it you Prick and shove that HD2 up your small european ass your dumbfuck

[stoferr]

lol, you're american and even tho that, I speak much better english that you do.. I'm not even going to argue with you, as you're so stupid it wouldn't be worth trying anyway. Besides if you don't want the HD2, why do you then not just stay away from this video, and keep your silly mouth shut? Your stupidity is an insult towards all americans...

[thewebmogul]

haha you speak better english LOL I am laughing at you euro bastard. Sure you speak better english that can't even spell. Maybe you should go back to your grade school and try to pass to next level hahaha. Me stay sorry euro prick just because I won hahaha and I am right you Moron.

[stoferr]

Its amaizing such a prick you are.. There's a reason why we europeans think that you americans are stupid.. You are definitely a reason for that. You won? In what way? Im not 13 years old, i got a life, and its not about discussion with some small kid who dont know shit.. Go home to mommy and leavy us grown up's alone.!

[stoferr]

Seriously dude.. You're crazy.. Perhaps you should go see a doctor, you really needs it.

At least im not a crazy mongol kid like you

[thewebmogul]

what wrong monkey kid too much hair on your back ha ha ha

[stoferr]

I got the HD2.. You got some ancient piece of shit.. I win, you loose.

End of discussion

[thewebmogul]

haha only ancient is you Moron bastard. Your HD2 is also piece of shit. You faggot. I won again keep it up has I am winning. hahaha

[stoferr]

The HD2 is great.. You're just jalous, so i win, and i always will!

[thewebmogul]

hahah you idiot why will i be jealous when my htc tp2 can do more than your big bulky phone.  hahaha I win again why are you always loosing You crosiant bastard hahaha

[stoferr]

I always win.. you loose

[thewebmogul]

[stoferr]

Im out.. this is fucking ridiculous

[thewebmogul]

than get out and crawl back to your rock haha I win again... lalala say hey hey goodbye denmark cookies... hahaha

[johniethescotie]

So let me get this straight you are so pathetic that you are crying over a phone, insulting it- yet you seemingly like HTC- this makes no sense. Just give up as you will get no where, no one seems to care looking back at the last 5 or 6 comments.

[thewebmogul]

You got that right you stupid Prick. Dont be mad just because your HD2 is many problems. haha also why dont you give and who ask you anyway you stupid Prick loser!

[johniethescotie]

I don't own the HD2 but it is better than the phone you apparently like dickhead so take your shit mouth elsewhere. Bye no point replying to this as I won't be reading your comment loser.

[thewebmogul]

haha what a prick dont own HD2 get hell out of here you moron and go and play with yourself you gayboy. Too bad just because you dont have a great phone like what I have. we all know your a iphone fanboy hahaha. Oh what's wrong you gonna cry haha I won.

[kamleshj99]

hey.. love all your videos of the HD2, really showing everything in details,, and as others mentioned, id love to see some games on this device.. neway keep up the great work..

[shulx2006]

i do love how u say qwerty brandon :P

[777Mulvey777]

i love your videos :D great reviews! keep up the good work!!:D

also would you please do a review on the game capability's of the HD2 :p

[Scheld0r]

is it because of using Edge that google maps has no fluid animation like the iphone when you use pinch to zoom?

[AloushNA]

I really wish i could afford this :P

[afghan901]

brandon please show some gaming on the htc hd2

[NickyEvil]
