HTC HD2 Review PART ONE: Software

This is about the software layout of the HD2.

I was wrong in the statement about the Contact favorites restricting methods to reach people, but a friend of mine was kind enough to make a video to clarify the situation:

this is the most in depth video on this phone I've seen to date. I currently have a G1, is this phone worth me using my upgrade on? I'm an android lover but ready for a new phone. Should I get the Hd2 or wait for tmo to come out w/ a better android device this summer. Hopefully something like the HTC evo

@LouisVuittonPrince If I were you, I wouldn't make the switch from Android to Windows Mobile. You should consider that the WM version on HD2 may most likely not be upgradeable. Even though the HD2 didn't work out for me and a couple of my reviewer contacts, that doesn't mean it can't work for you. A good thing to do is visit a T-Mobile store and play around with a demo unit to get a feel for the device.

You're wrong with that you can't choose between CALL, SMS, EMAIL when tap on one of your People on tab - when you click on the image it will make your set operation, but when you tap on the NAME you can choose. ;) Best regards

This had already been addressed with a comment in the information window, and a friend was even kind enough to do a response video.

freeze prob is of sd card not htc hd2...

I looked into it and did learn that I own class 2 microSD cards which are the slowest speed. But I am still confused as to why the Nokias do not react the same way when accessing multimedia content.

BEST REVIEW OF THE HD2 YET!

All the other reviews of this phone SUCKED. They were dry and boring and just flicked around the sense UI like that actually showed anything.

THANK YOU FOR FINALLY DOING A QUALITY REVIEW BROTHER.

@LouisVuittonPrince

I used to have a G1 also but used my upgrade to get the HD2.

At first I did regret it, but then after about 2 days I just couldn't be separated from it. But I would try it out for a while to see how you like it.

@absolon3 yah the hd2 wont be upgrading to winmo7 because its missing 3 hardware buttons which kind of sucks. but then again android is still the better choice
