T-Mobile HD2 retail box

T-Mobile HD2 retail box

The HD2 is highest speced Windows Mobile device ever and is very popular in Europe. HTC brought the device to the USA with T-Mobile with a subsidized price of only $200. A big improvement over other WM devices is the amazing content partnerships with Barnes & Noble, BlockBuster, and Slacker. You won’t be looking all over for content on this 1 GHz Snapdragon device with its 16GB microSD card. You can even enjoy Guitar Hero on the device.

These pamphlets were placed under the HD2 in a small compartment. The guide should be handy for new owners.

It is nice to see HTC and T-Mobile including a case to protect the HD2 a bit and also add a bit of gripping action to the device.

It is not a small device, but is thin enough to feel comfortable in your hand and pocket.

4.3 inches of 480×800 resolution sure looks good in my hand.

I thought it was amazing how much HTC was able to pack into the tiny Touch Diamond. Now we see the monster size of this device with specs that rival netbooks.
