HTC seems to do a great job nowadays. From being relatively unknown a couple of years ago focussing on more niche devices, it has exploded onto the scene with some of the most technologically advanced smartphones available.
The HTC HD7 is one of their latest, boasting the Windows Phone 7 operating system along with outstanding multimedia capabilities.
The HTC HD7 is being advertised as an entertainment device, and design-wise these claims are backed up. Apart from the massive display, there are two speakers on the side, rounded up by a metal band with the volume control, a camera button (getting you straight to the camera), and the power/lock key.
The HTC HD7 feels awesome to the touch, even though the back cover is made of plastic – you won’t have to worry about fingerprints, and it does seem durable. You get a kickstand as well (built around the camera), enhancing the video-watching experience, together with its ergonomically well-founded curved design. Even though it’s large, it is pocket friendly as well.
It does not have a microSD-slot, so the internal memory of 16 GB cannot be expanded any further. On the rare occasion that further storage may be required, help is at hand: cloud services coming with the phone can extend this storage capacity quite considerably. It does feel strange this phone looks significantly similar to HD2, but then again, Microsoft does have strict hardware requirements concerning devices willing to run WP7, so the reason might as well be out of HTC’s reach.
Speaking of which, you cannot say enough times how well WP7 is put together. The speed, the reaction time, the accuracy, the overall well-oiled smooth feel to it makes it similar to other certain popular smartphone models. The second-generation Snapdragon processor does its work well, and we can’t have asked for anything more. Naturally Windows Phone 7, being a new software may need the occasion tweak or upgrade, but upgrades are available, making the phone relatively future-proof.
The battery is an ample 1230 mAh, but considering that every smartphone more or less requires daily charging, and with normal usage the HD7 has no problem lasting for a day, while going easy on the usage can take you for two days straight.
The HTC HD7’s camera does a way above average job, producing still images that look like they were taken by a pro. Video can be taken at 720 pixels, but that seems to be more or less the average for smartphones of this calibre. Nonetheless, HD capture is certainly an impressive attribute, and the resulting footage is of amazing quality.
All in all, the HTC HD7 is a solid all round performer, and excels at multimedia tasks. The large screen and multimedia functionality makes it easy to forget you are holding a phone in your hand. It encompasses everything good about smartphone technology, all rolled into one great looking handset.
