HTC's HD7 was certainly one of the most handsome devices to be launched back at Windows Phone 7's retail introduction late last year -- and really, when you take the HD2's heritage as your starting point, it's hard to go wrong. Of course, in the last year and a half, mobile display technology has advanced by leaps and bounds -- and the original HD7 was using nothing more than a standard, old-school TFT LCD with less-than-perfect contrast and viewing angle specs. Well, that's where the HD7S comes into play: the "S" in the name presumably stands for Super LCD, the newer type of display that HTC's been using on recent 4.3-inch models like the Thunderbolt. It's quite pretty, but otherwise, it's the same HD7 as usual -- and really, considering how nice this hardware is, that's just alright by us. The phone also comes with the so-called "NoDo" update of Windows Phone 7 preinstalled, a fact we were able to verify with a quick look of the version number being reported in system settings. Check it out in the gallery!
How nice the hardware is"?
ReplyDeleteIt's more than one year old, less than half the speed of competing hardware shipping today.
HTC is really behind others now, due to Qualcomm chip release schedule.
And things are not being improved on the WP-platform by the silly adherence to hardware specs.
Good job listening to customers at&t and htc, I believe the screen on the HD7 was one of the biggest griping points for it. For once the big corporations listened to the peoples.
