First ever HTC HD2 review

The Italian boys over at SoloPalmari did a fairly long pre/review of the HTC HD2 (using non-final hardware and ROM). So far they have only posted the first two parts of their work. Part 1 takes a look at the hardware and features some benchmarks (which should be taken seriously given that they were never developed to run on the new SnapDragon chipset) to give you some point of comparaison.

Finally Part 2 features a size comparaison gallery ( vs iPhone, HTC Touch2 etc) and for the first time, sample pictures & video taken with the phones 5Mpix camera. They’ve also tested the GPS out. Just remember that it’s all done on non-final hardware (it features only 320Mb of ram instead of 448Mb and a beta ROM).
