HTC

Windows Mobile is extremely good when it comes to synchronization, particularly for the corporate users. For private use, I find Windows Mobile slightly improved, although not everything works very smoothly at all times. Without the TouchFlo, the structure of the HTC Touch HD is slightly outdated, or at least, not innovative and the phone freezes a tad too often, for example when sending a text message. Generally speaking, this is not so often the case with alternative complex software.

The built-in GPS antenna lets you determine your position with the HTC Touch HD. Google maps can be used to plan a route, and the application looks fine. Displaying the route is enabled with average cards or satellite pictures, and when using the latest version of Google Maps; even with Streetview. You then walk through a city, as it were. The GPS antenna works fine and fast, and unlike many other mobile phones, the HTC Touch HD is able to connect to a satellite very easily.

Despite the considerable size of the HTC Touch HD, it certainly doesn't lack charm. Thanks to equipping this mobile phone with Windows Mobile 6.1 software, many applications are available. The 5.0 Megapixel digital camera, GPS antenna, HSDPA and Wi-Fi make the HTC Touch HD a full all-round phone.
