HTC and Microsoft have collaborated on a couple of smartphones recently. Among them is the aesthetically pleasing yet powerful HD7.
Offering the new Windows Phone 7 operating system, a 5 megapixel digital camera and a stunning touchscreen, it is the perfect choice for those who are into their multimedia and entertainment features.
The screen measures 4.3 inches and offers stunning visuals with up to 16 million colours being displayed within the confines of its 480x 800 pixel resolution. Colours are bright and vivid whilst the picture quality is clear and crisp. This makes the HTC HD7 an ideal phone for viewing photos and HD video or playing games. When watching video, users can flip out the metal surround on the camera on the back of the phone. By doing this, they have the means to stand the phone up on a flat surface such as a table. Therefore they can view video in full screen landscape mode.
The Windows Phone 7 user interface is simple in concept yet powerful and effective in day to day use. It features a tile layout of icons which have live updates. For example, the email client will display the number of unread messages, whilst the phone and sms icons will do the same with missed calls, voicemails, and unread texts. This allows users to get a quick overview without having to open each icon individually.
To store files such as music, videos and photos, 8 GB of internal; storage is provided as standard. This is sure to prove amole to the needs of most users, and essentially eliminates the needs for additional storage such as a micro SD card. The comprehensive phonebook can store a seemingly unlimited number of contacts and also boasts the functionality of the photocall feature.
