, Feb 16th 2010 Discuss [0]

HTC's new smartphone range for MWC 2010 isn't all about Android; the company have also outed a new Windows Mobile device, though of course it runs 6.5.3 rather than Windows Phone 7.  The HTC HD mini is being billed as offering the same user experience as the HD2 only in a smaller form factor, shrinking the display down to a 3.2-inch capacitive HVGA panel with multitouch support and swapping the HD2's Snapdragon chipset for a 600MHz Qualcomm MSM7227.  Like the HD2, it also gets HTC's Sense UI.

Euro HTC HD2 “hidden” RAM matches newer US-spec model?

, Jan 28th 2010 Discuss [3]

Color us confused on this one, but there's controversy broiling over exactly how much RAM the original HTC HD2 has.  Coming on the heels of HTC USA's revelation that the T-Mobile US version of the HD2 will have 576MB of RAM compared to the European model's 448MB, the suggestion is that HTC purposefully hid 128MB of RAM on the initial model.  That's compounded by a purported leaked ROM from T-Mobile's handset, which some users have reported "unlocks" the hidden memory.

T-Mobile USA HD2 gets memory boost; Euro model may miss WinMo7?

, Jan 25th 2010 Discuss [1]

US HTC HD2 owners could see their patience rewarded with boosted specifications when the Windows Mobile 6.5 smartphone arrives on T-Mobile in March.  The official listing for the handset has gone live on HTC's site, and where the original European model packs a 512MB ROM and 448MB RAM, the US version will apparently get 1GB ROM and 576MB RAM.  That should mean the US-spec HD2 runs faster and has more room for onboard applications, as well as having longer-term implications for Windows Mobile 7 upgrades.

HTC HD2 firmware update

, Jan 20th 2010 Discuss [2]

HTC have pushed out a reasonably significant firmware update for the HD2, addressing in-call voice quality as well as tweaking accelerometer performance.  The update apparently improves automatic portrait/landscape orientation flips in the preinstalled Opera browser, together with offering what sounds like gapless music playback from the HD2's mediaplayer. Update: Antony points out that this update has been around for a while - Thanks!  However HTC have also pulled the recent SMS update for the HD2, which users had mixed results with.  No word from the company as to their reasons for doing so.
