Communicator HTC HD2: the characteristic of hardware and software features

The first communicator with a diagonal of display 4.3 inches is HTC HD2. The characteristics of its hardware and software capabilities will be described later in this small material. This is one of the best smartphones in 2009 based on Windows Mobile, both from the hardware and hardware positions.

Communicator Design

Design HTC HD2 is not much different from modern smartphones: all the same candybar with the ability to touch input. The difference lies in the control panel, which is located under the screen. Instead of the 3 standard buttons currently available, 5 buttons are displayed. In addition to the Back, Home and Menu buttons, there are also the Call and End buttons. The volume control buttons are displayed on the left side of the smartphone, and the locks on the right side. On the underside, all wired interfaces of the communicator are grouped: a 3.5-mm audio port and a standard micro-USB. On the back cover there is a camera, a double LED backlight for it and a loud speaker.

CPU, graphics and camera

At the time of the appearance on sale the best "iron" among competitors could boast of HTC HD2. The specification of its CPU specifications clearly indicates this. Chip Snapdragon QSD2850 from Qualcomm worked at a frequency of 1 GHz and the performance had no competitors. The touch screen of this device, as was noted earlier, had a diagonal of 4.3 inches. Its resolution was 800 x 480. Now you do not surprise with such parameters, but in 2009 these were fantastic indicators. The only thing that causes censure is the number of displayed color shades. They were 65 thousand, and this value is laid in the operating system itself. That is, this restriction was impossible to somehow bypass. Also in the device was just one camera, based on a sensor in 5 megapixel. Also, such important technologies as autofocus and dual LED flash were implemented. Therefore, the quality of the photos obtained with this device at that time was one of the best.

Memory

Excellent situation with the memory subsystem in HTC HD2. Features, reviews of the owners of the gadget said that there were no problems with the placement and launch of the software. The amount of RAM was 448 MB, and the capacity of the built-in drive was 512 MB. Well, in addition to this device it was possible to install an external micro-SD card. As a result of problems with the memory subsystem, this communicator was not.

Autonomy of the communicator

Very small battery capacity - 1230 mAh - in HTC HD2. The characteristic is really modest, as in the present times, when devices of this level are already equipped with batteries for 1500-2000 mAh. Accordingly, the autonomy of this communicator was limited to two days. And this is with minimal load on the device. But if you increase the intensity of use, then this value was reduced for a day at an average level of use, but with the maximum use of the gadget you could count on 8-12 hours of operation.

Interfaces

All modern methods of data transfer is supported by HTC HD2. His characteristics in this respect are really impressive. There are also "Vai-Fay", and Blutuz, and ZhPS, and micro-USB. Also, the smartphone is dual-band and boasts support for GSM and 3G. In the first case, theoretically, you can get 560 kbit / s, and in the second - 7,2 Mbit / s.

System software

As the system software in this device was Windows Mobile with the prefix Professional version 6.5. At that time it was one of the best software platforms for communicators. IOS has not yet received much distribution, like the "Android". And "Symbian" stopped on the spot and did not develop. Another important feature of this device was the availability of a pre-installed office suite. This allowed him to view and edit text documents and spreadsheets.

User feedback

The only drawback, which the owners of this device say, is the high cost. At the time of the release of the device it amounted to 1100 dollars. But, on the other hand, modern flagships are estimated by manufacturers similarly, and at such a price of the gadget there is nothing unusual. He was also a premium-segment device. Of course, it was possible to save a certain part of the amount. It was enough to only purchase on the international trading platforms specialized versions of this communicator, for example HTC HD2 T-Mobile. His characteristics are identical, but the price was lower. Characteristics of the technical plan, he does not cause criticism, as well as other components.

Results

After 6 years, the hardware parameters allow you to solve most everyday tasks on HTC HD2. The characteristic of the program component of this communicator causes certain censures. The operating system is obsolete both morally and physically. But still it's an excellent communicator, which even after six years can perform all the functions assigned to it.
