For weeks I was comparing and reading about the various touchscreen phones out there.  And quite frankly I was more or less disappointed with the choice I had. Some were too slow, some had no 3.5mm audio jack and most of them were simply too expensive for what they offered.

By some coincidence I came across the Touch HD by HTC. It was love at  first sight! Particularly the huge 3.8 inches touchscreen was pretty attractive although I didn’t really like the idea of using a Windows Mobile 6.1 based cell.

Some of the videos I watched before I bought the phone

After reading dozens of reviews I decided to get me the Touch HD.

Now, two weeks later and hours and hours of playing around, installing cool software, changing the shell (software surface) and using the fully touchscreen based keyboard – I can say that this is by far the best phone I’ve ever had.
It’s reasonable fast, the battery lasts up to two days (moderate usage), it has a stunning video quality and it’s quite responsive.

I dearly enjoy being able to install/update/change basically anything I want. This goes hand in hand with the sheer amount of free and paid software available for Windows Mobile.

So much for expressing my love for my new HTC Touch HD.

In my next post about this phone I will list some of  the best apps i came across.
