The HTC Touch HD is acknowledged as having the very best in specification that money can buy, and it looks the part too.

The HTC Touch HD boasts both very sleek and stylish appearance and serious capabilities. It will appeal to users viewing a mobile as a fashion accessory as much as to those who simply want a very capable mobile phone.

A very thin - 12mm - but well built case is the essence of this 146gms phone, and such lightweight does not, in this case, mean a flexible and flimsy item, but one that covers all the bases with apparent ease.

Among all its impressive features it is the 4 inches display that is regarded as one of the very best available on any handset. It is not just the size that sets it apart but the ability - the Touch HD is based around a 528 MHz processor, and has 288 MB of RAM, and this screen far outstrips the market leading iPhone in terms of size and capability.

Needless to say that the screen is a touch device - the name gives it away - as is expected in high end phones, ...
... and lends itself well to the Windows mobile system that it utilises.

{As the HTC Touch HD packs all features that one wants from a phone in this class, the list of what it can't do may be shorter.

A 5 MP camera with auto focus system - something that many Windows phones lack, is applied in the HTC Touch HD. It is also backed up with a camera for video calling. These are very capable devices that will be adequate for any occasion, although the lack of a flash may be irksome to a few.

As a quad-band phone, the HTC Touch HD handles both EDGE and GPRS functions, and has a high speed HSDPA capability that can perform downloads at up to 7.2Mbps, a worthy feature that will appeal to many. Since Wi-Fi is a must have these days, the HTC Touch HD doesn't miss it - ensuring that the handset misses nothing in terms of connectivity.

With multimedia being the byword for sales nowadays it is not surprising that an FM radio and a 3.5mm jack socket are equipped, plus the ability to handle MP3 and Windows media formats, and widescreen video are available thanks to the excellent display.And stereo Bluetooth headset can be used if one prefers.

Considering the 300MB internal storage is not enough for the full use of its multimedia capabilities, expandable memory is very necessary. The HTC Touch HD put in a micro SD card slot as usual, and a powerful battery gives over six hours talk time and up to 18 days of standby on one charge, impressive figures for such a slim device.

For people looking for a top notch Window mobile phone that is capable of everything one should expect, the HTC Touch HD is undoubtedly the right one, and the superb screen will make it the choice of many.
