Why doesn't GSM arena review Desire HD?
where is gsm review already??? cmon gsm get ur act together!
WHY can't HTC increase on-board memory? If the dolts at apple can include 16/32GB then so can HTC. The card slot is good but "on-board" mem should be at least 16GB too. Otherwise, looking good!!
Gingerbread was earlier rumored to require at least a 1GHz processor, 512 MB of RAM and a minimum screen size of 3.5 inches on devices that would run the operating software. This led to speculations that Gingerbread, which was again rumored to launch in mid-October, would be aimed at tablets, since most smartphones did not fulfill the hardware requirements for the software.
Gingerbread was also said to offer a resolution of 1280×760 pixels in devices that had screens larger than 4 inches in size. Android 3.0 would also incorporate a new user interface that would reduce the dependence on customized UIs from handset manufacturers, such as the MotoBlur and Sense UI. The user interface was said to be similar to the 3D Gallery app that is present in Android 2.2.
The clarification of the Android 3.0 Gingerbread rumors as being untrue, by Google employee Dan Morill, is being presently treated as the last word on the matter until more rumors surface, or Google itself makes an announcement.

Come on GSM - review the phone already! I want to get it, but need your review first!

Just got the Desire HD today, from my experience the phone is extremely fast and everything runs smoothly. The screen looks gorgeous and games look amazing, and there are plenty of great games on the market like Angry Birds (which is free). Furthermore, there are many great apps preloaded on the phone, which are very useful and add to the overall experience.
The build quality is exceptional, and even though the phone is very big, it doesn't feel that big in the hand and in fact feels very comfortable (maybe due to rounded edges or the fact I have large hands). Either way, the phone feels solid, and it is true to say that the phone is quite the looker! The new version of HTC Sense is, as always, exceptionally good, and it brings many customisable options such as widgets, skins and scenes to the phone home screens.
At this moment I cannot comment on the battery life as I haven't been using it long enough and lastly, it is true to say that the speakers are poor.
All in all this is a fantastic device for so many reasons, and I would recommend it to anyone looking to but a new smart phone.

Alex, 26 Oct 2010I don't think an Android compatible phone will ever be un-upgrade-able to whatever version of ... moreThat is not only related with the Google.
Its the hardware issue in some cases.
Maybe your eclair phone can't support android 3.0 depending on the hardware.
For example samsung & google still working on Galaxy S froyo update.
its just NOT that simple even if its 2.1 to 2.2 upgrade.
Then please imagine 2.x to 3.x.
its favourable to wait until december to see if htc android 3.0 phones are coooming. those phones most probably can be upgradable to 3.x series as well, so we can use that phone at least 1 year without beeing out of date :)
Just had a play on this phone.
Is the daddy. Well built. Touch screen extremely responsive even more so than the desire.
768mb ram and you notice it.
Amazing device.
There's news out not long ago that it'll be priced at $59/mth, promo price on Vodafone Australia but not release date yet
