TheHTC Touch HD, also known as theHTC T828X or its codename theHTC Blackstone, is a Windows Mobile 6.1 Pocket PC designed and manufactured by HTC launched in 2008.
Part of theHTC Touch Family, it features a larger, higher-resolution display than those found in most smart-phones available at the time, a 5-megapixel camera, a second front-facing camera to enable Videophone functionality, an accelerometer, GPS, FM RDS radio reception, high resolution video recording capability and SD Micro card compatibility (up to 64 GB). It also featuresquad bandGSM anddual bandUMTS connectivity, as well as the proprietaryTouchFLO 3Duser interface developed by HTC. However, it lacks the left side slide-out keyboard of theHTC Touch Pro.
Details of the device were leaked[1] several days before an official press release[2] and a new product page[3] confirmed the specifications and the release date in Europe (Q4 2008). HTC announced that the Touch HD would be available in the UK from November 7, 2008.[4] While the FCC has approved the HTC Touch HD for the US,[5] HTC has confirmed that the device will not officially be available in the US.[6] The Touch HD generally received mixed reviews from critics, praising its screen, colors, most of the hardware and applications, but its lighting of the screen was criticized.
The following specifications are those found on the HTC website.
