Description

The HTC HD7 was announced at the Windows Phone event in New York City on 11 October 2010.

Leaked photographs prior to the launch of the HD7 indicated that the HD7 was originally named the HD3. [4] It is possible that HTC changed the name of the product before launch so as to tie in with the Windows Phone brand.

Also announced March 2011, was the HD7S, which is largely identical, but with a Super LCD screen. [5]

The HD7 shares nearly all its specifications with its older Windows Mobile 6.5-running brother, the HD2, including the screen resolution and size (109 mm diagonal and WVGA 800x480 resolution).

HTC HD7S

The HTC HD7S is a special variation of the HTC HD7 available exclusively to AT&T. Unlike the original HTC HD7 which has a TFT-LCD, the HTC HD7S has Super-LCD screen. [6] The HTC HD7S's Super LCD screen is brighter and more vivid than the original TFT-LCD screen on the HD7.
