HTC TouchFLO 3D update to 2.5

10.09.2009 | HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) news

HTC TouchFLO 3D, developed by HTC for their best products have been updated to version 2.5.

As you can see on screenshots, HTC's programmers and designers know their job - you can't recognise Windows Mobile anymore! Still, as usual, Touch FLO interface can be disabled, if you prefer classic WM6 interface instead.

New version of TouchFLO 3D 2.5 brings additional options to personalize your phone even more and new Footprints section, which is HTC view on geotagging.

TouchFLO 3D v2.5 works only on devices with WVGA resolutions, such as HTC Touch HD, Diamond, Pro 2. New version will probably be presented as an update for users of current HTC phones.

HTC Touch HD detailed review

04.09.2009 | HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) news

Fellas from mobile tech addicts have published a detailed HTC Touch HD review, which you can find here.

According to the review, HTC's created a masterpiece of a phone, but with a number of weaknesses, which are not entirely their fault: if you compare interface of Windows Mobile ti iPhone's, for example, you'll see, what they mean. It's fast, stable, but not sleek and stylish. As for the phone itself - it's a good buy, if you're reaaly ready for it =)

Bad news for US subscribers - HTC HD tri-band only?

12.09.2008 | HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) news

HTC Touch HD full specifications (specs)More info on HTC's Touch HD has leaked into the net: seems like HTC will make its new top of the notch phone tri-band.

Full specs are:

Bad news for those, who live in the US, for it's said that HD will support such networks as GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS900, UMTS2100.

Oops! No AT&T's GSM bands in the list. More than that - phone will have only dual HSDPA support (according to preliminary data), which means there's no place for 3G bands for US subscribers.

It will, of course, make its way to the US market, but not for Christmas for sure, if these specs are accurate...

And more than that, Touch HD will support only QVGA video capture. Not that bad, but... If you make it the best, HTC, what the heck?!
