Supermodel-smug TouchFLO 3D interface lurks a gang of pizza-eating geeks forcing you through thousands of miniscule menu options and then stealing all your memory. Put it this way &ndas...
Touch performance still erratic. 5MP camera not the sharpest. Video capture resolution too juddery
Small onboard memory
Camera could still be better
Camera and video shooting
Little memory for a multimedia device
No consumer app download platform
Virtual keyboard
Only one speaker
Occasional glimpses of Windows Mobile
Crying out for a capacitive touch-screen
Steep unlocked price.
Too large for some pockets
Main camera lacks flash and image quality is lacklustre
Even with TouchFLO 3D Windows Mobile still isn't that finger-friendly

Huge screen, great web browser, fantastic TouchFLO 3D interface
No camera flash, slightly bulky, sometimes tricky to control

The most telling thing about the Touch HD is that everyone we showed it to asked why Google didn't use this as the phone to launch Android. It's a question that's difficult to answer as in terms of hardware this is unquestionably a brilliant device and wi...

Despite its reasonable bulk, the HTC Touch HD is a thing of beauty, most emphasised by its cracking HD display. However, the experience as a whole is disjointed with both the touch-screen and internet experience proving temperamental. ...
