HD2_comingsoon_tmonews

Well, folks, you’ve already seen some blurry snapshots (Courtesy of Mr. Blurrcam), and then some HD quality snapshots, and now T-Mobile has officially listed the HTC HD2 on their website as “Coming Soon”.  We’re still expecting a March 24th release with a $199.99 new 2 year contract price tag and a $449.99 retail price.  How many of you are going to camp outside a T-Mobile store the night before?  Leave your thoughts in the comments!

    • Kevin

      which there won’t be

  • nexus4ever

    Why do we need this phone, when there is the nexus one

    • Inuyasha

      Because not everyone wants Android. Why is that so hard for you people to grasp? I have not been impressed by Android at all.

    • The Hammer

      Again HOLY CAMEL NUTS……….We havent heard that before……….Stupid Douche

    • Mockerfab4

      How I feel about Android…

    • Nick

      @ nexus4ever

      Nexus One sucks because of it’s crappy Android OS. That’s why we need much better phones like this HTC HD2 Windows Mobile.

      Go back to your hole troll.

      • Davidohio

        HTC HD2 sucks because of it’s crappy Windows OS. That’s why we need much better phones like the Nexus one with Android 2.1.
        Now, do you see how STUPID your comment is? I said the same thing you did but with the phone I like. Are you smart enough to see the point? Just because you don’t like Android and love windows mobile does not mean that everyone else does. The HD2 in a fantastic device, and so is the Nexus one. Keep your stupid comments to yourself because nobody really cares to hear them. Idiot.

      • Newcleus

        To DavidOhio
        I understand your point, but concede to this at least: this is a bloh about the HTC HD2, which everybody here knows is runnin WM6.5. So, all these comments about it needing Android are pointless and annoying. The Android fans are beginning to sound a lot like the other fanbois and nobody wants that.

        However, we should all be happy that we have a choice between these awesome phones and shouldn’t be calling eachother names either.

        Just my $0.02.

      • Nick

        @ Davidohio

        Actually you are the one who is idiot and I will explain it to you why.

        I was replying to that nexus4ever (Andriod troll) guy to show him how STUPID his comment is.

        Just because you don’t like Windows Mobile and love Android does not mean that everyone else does. Are you smart enough to see the point?

        Keep your stupid comments to yourself because nobody really cares to hear Android fanboys comments here.

        Read before comment. Idiot.

      • Mockerfab4

        I feel ya Nick!

      • just some dʋde

        Why on earth would you want the HD2 it has WM on it. I guess some people dont know what there doing.

        Android Rules.

    • PHONE FREAK

      Just for the record, Android is a good operating system. Even so, comments like this never cease to annoy me. They display such ignorance…

    • Jrossf1

      Just got back from the T-Mobile store, where a rep let me play with her HD2, One word “Wow!”

      Can’t wait to replace my Android phone with this one. Don’t get me wrong, Android is ok, but the HD2 was slick. With Android, I often have to wait after I press home, for the icns to come back to the screen. Sometimes I can’t even pull up the application tray because the phone is not responding. The HD2 was instand, and smooth, a major improvement to android. It was also very finger friendly, but I think that is due to the big screen. I have to say, the HD2 blows away my android handset, can’t wait until teh 24th

      • dsim91

        Yeah when your using a junk phone it will be slow my wife has the N1 and its blazing fast its not always about the OS

      • Jrossf1

        Even on a junk window phone, the OS is faster than on the My Touch 3G. I used to have an HTC Fuze, on AT&T, same chip as in my current phone, and that was quite peppy, compared to the Android OS on the phone I had. I had many more apps on that phone, than my current one.

        I could always make a call by pressing the talk button, but on this android, it can take a few minutes, sometimes. To me, it seems that my Android’s memory management is not as good as WinMo, and the responsiveness just isn’t there. I should not have to wait to make a call, after all, it is a phone. While the N1 may be faster, a good OS should function well on all platforms it is on. Based on your comment, This is not the case for Android.

        Therefore, for me, WinMo is far superior to Android, when it comes to stability, speed, and ease of use [the last one being subjective, as I have used WinMo for many years]

        I wanted to like android, I really did. This is my 2nd android phone, having returned the Cliq, for simmilar reasons. while future revisions of the OS may get better, I don’t want to wait, when a beauty like the HD2 is availabe now [March 24th per the sales rep who lent me her phone]. I have wanted that phone for some time, and am clad to be going back to a more stable, OS, that will let me make calls, without the wait, and the Wait/FC dialog showing half the time I go to make a call…

        I think Android is good for a starter smart phone, for the person who like a full web experience [no flash] and gmail, and maps/navigation. But I think it is more of a toy than a serious phone, and as such isn’t as good for power users like me.

        That’s why there are several phone OS’s out there, there is something for everyone. But apples to apples, WinMo is far better than Android right now, we will see what the fututre holds.

    • Yaniv

      This is in no way meant to bash the nexus one, but… the nexus one is not all they say it is. I’ve had the g1, the mytouch, the cliq for my wife, the Droid, AND the n1 … and I can say this from a prosumer point of view and as a software developer, now that there’s hardware…. windows is gonna rock!
      all this time there wasn’t enough power for winmobile, now finally there is.
      I can honestly say I’m dropping my nexus one and getting the hd2. and even if they don’t “officially” release an upgrade to 7, there will most definitely be the ROM floating around the net.
      WooHoo 16 days.

  • vic

    No need for me to camp as my local store is less than three football fields from my house so I will just get up extra early to be there before they open

  • ndy500fan

    What do you mean are you gonna? I’m already camping outside my T-mobile store.

  • A.Minor

    Seems To Me The HD2 Has Been Coming Soon For A Decade Now

    • PHONE FREAK

      I know right.

    • Joe Pa

      This.

  • Andy

    Pre-order isn’t available yet and even if I do pre-order it I’ll be the 1st one at the store to pick it up. I’m a little sad this device hasn’t received the advertising it deserves. I called my local T store last Friday and the manager said I was the 1st person to ask about the HD2. I told her a lot of stuff she didn’t know about the device and almost had her converted from her BlackBerry! If only 3G would go a little further than major cities I’d be completely happy.

  • exemptednut

    After a hands on training with this phone I’m 100% sold and ill be buying for sure

  • Mark

    Camp out? Why bother? No marketing=no lines! :-)

    • PHONE FREAK

      I guess they are leaving this phone to those who understand its power. T-mobile doesn’t want to waste money on advertising. Some people can’t handle a BEAST like this.

    • CO_Yeti

      Tmo has started to require manufactures to market and advertise (ala Apple and At&t) their phones starting with the Cliq. We will see commercials from HTC shortly after the phone has launched.

  • Cpiper80

    Winmo…… I’m not camping for winmo!

    Where are the android 2.1 phones for tmobile? (without going online to buy)

    This winmo phone will not be receiving flash 10.Whatever, and will not be able to upgrade to winmo 7 for web flash usage.

    • Nick

      Here we are again! Another Andriod fanboy or maybe better to say troll in Windows Mobile related post.

      It’s better you go back to your hole and stay there till they give you your Craproid 2.1.

      Don’t spam here tool.

    • dsim91

      who cares about wm7 I’m buying for what it has, and if anyone wants flash support all they have to do is use the skyfire browser .

    • The Hammer

      Again HOLY CAMEL NUTS……….We havent heard that before……Stupid Douche Seriouly we all know yall android fan boys love android but for the love of god STFU

      • Mockerfab4

        I don’t mind these Android fans anymore. For every WM bash there’s like 15 people coming to it’s defense and spewing why Android sucks.

        Every time these jokers show up I try to write my explanation on how it sucks. Hopefully some interested Android buyer will read my horrible experience and will be turned off, and I will save one more person from the agony of owning that phone!

      • PHONE FREAK

        I just realized how right Mockerfab4 is.

      • Cpiper80

        Mocker:

        I must of missed your detailed explanation of the problems with android operating systems. Forgive me if it is in plain site somewhere – can you give me an explanation? You also stated that there is a mob of 15 people defending winmo behind every 1 potential android customer giving detailed reasons of how android sucks. I have yet to pin point these detailed reasons.

        * saying something sucks or anything else of that nature doesn’t attack or support an argument or stance – aswell as pulling the troll or tool card… *

        I’ve never owned an android phone – please give me your professional detailed opinion of major flaws withing the OS so I do not regret signing a contract on an android phone.

      • RevenG101

        Can’t we all just get along? I love Android, but the HD2 will probably be included in my phone line up because the specs are just crazy. However, I still find Android to be superior to WinMo, with the exception of 7. You cant beat Xbox Live integration. We are all T subscribers, so lets just get along. If anyone is going to bash on anything, it should be the Deathstar or Big Red.

      • Mockerfab4

        Cpiper..I’d gladly share my pains! I wrote down a huge document, so instead of filling up space here I’m posting it elsewhere. Here ya go. Enjoy!

        http://gnuwav.com/noandroidforme

      • cpiper80

        Mocker:

        I researched your MT3G problem. It was very common for the MT3G and had nothing to do with the Android software. It was Hardware issues on HTC’s part. There was a plethora of problems in relation to the SIM card and HTC in that specific phone. It was an isolated issue having to do with “HTC” and not Android – not to say Android doesn’t have its problems – just saying that your little blog about your problems reflects issues with HTC and not Android.

        My wife recently purchased a Motorola Cliq, and she didn’t experience any of the problems you speak of. (Thank God)

        I’m personally interested in the Sony x10… but it lacks the AMOLED screen :( which the HD2 does as well. Not sure what I’ma do yet.

      • Mockerfab4

        Sorry Cpiper, the hardware issue you speak of was only related to the wireless. The other 90% was software related. What does the hardware have to do with email? Or opening PDF’s on pop3. Missing appts due to lack of calendar syncing? Or the FB upload issues? Or the phone crashing? The trackball worked fine. The buttons I had no issues with. Touch screen was ok in response as well. So what hardware issue aside from the wireless did I mention? Enlighten me…

      • Mockerfab4

        Sorry, needed to add as well, that when I brought these same issues to the attention of my Twitter account, several Android fans advised me to get the Cynaogen mod. Now, isn’t a modified version of the Android software? Apparently that was to get rid of the bugs…

      • cpiper80

        “What does the hardware have to do with email? Or opening PDF’s on pop3. Missing appts due to lack of calendar syncing? Or the FB upload issues? Or the phone crashing?”

        HTC’s hardware issues with the SIM card working correctly, will effect many connectivity issues and sync issues. I’m guessing that after their firmware updates these problems shrank.

        I’ve yet to hear any complaints from my wife using her motorola cliq. But if she does – we will create a 2 day blog for ya.

    • Mockerfab4

      cpiper – Not familiar with Motorola, but doesn’t Blur run on top of Android? Similar to how Sense on the HD2 covers up the WM6 experience? Again, not sure so I could be wrong. In that case, hopefully Motorola fixed the bugs with the native Android system because the native version sucks.

      As for the syncing issues, that’s not a hardware issue. Sorry. Purely Android. Android being it doesn’t sync outside of Google products. Read the post again for why. Google forces you to use Google products not Outlook, so it’s going to have syncing issues. Until they make it available on their software like they do for VZW users. And the Pop3 issue is a known issue for Google. It’s in there forums. Good luck getting anyone to help you though from Google or Tmo.

      Like I said, all the issues I mentioned were from Android, not HTC. Hardware worked fine. Software inside not so much. Put WM 6 on that HTC MyTouch hardware and 70% of the issues mentioned wouldn’t exist. Plus the sim card I had was only a month old at the time.

  • Kal

    Although I have 2 N1s I still love the HD2. Who knows maybe my daughter needs a smart-phone, Yea she is 10 but hey… it will get the HD2 in the house for me to play with.

    • PHONE FREAK

      Lol I cant imagine a 10 year old with this phone. Sounds like to much.

      • Kevin

        Yeah, it will be like watching a movie on a bigscreen tv to her

  • Oscar

    I’m used to the iPhone , will sense be a smooth tansition?

    • Davidohio

      Oh, your battery hasn’t exploded yet? My sisters did :(

    • Mockerfab4

      I’m wondering the same thing too Oscar. I tested the Android and that was a HORRIBLE transition. So much so, I shipped the phone back and went back to my iPhone. The HD2 looks promising, but we’ll see.

  • Nick

    I am ready to buy 5 of these HTC HD2 phones for my family plan. Can’t wait!

  • Chris

    This says 16gb SD card. Its a micro slot, and have heard its on a 8gb thats coming with it. Have already had the Euro HD2, sold it the other day to get the US version, these cards are HARD to get out. You have to have something sharp to get them out. Why they made this like this is beyond me. Hopefully they did something better on the US version to where you can slip them out easier. Loved this phone though! Everyone will be well pleased with it. Alot of people have said its to big, which its not big at all. Once you get it and actually hold it, it feels nice. The screen is awesome, I loaded SWYPE on mine to see how it works, and this is definitely the way to go with texting and other options for typing. You can use a screen guard without it interfering with typing. Someone asked that in another HD2 comment section. But one thing to remember, you don’t need a screen guard with this phone. Its true glass so no scratching will occur unless you use something sharp against it, and you know how glass is, its still hard to scratch. Its a fast phone, easy to use. Looking forward to the US version to get this again.

    • chaoscentral

      It is a 16GB that comes with it not an 8GB. I can’t wait for this phone though, getting it on day 1 for sure :)

    • Kevin

      Yeah, its a 16gb (class 2, of course), and actually has the movies and 3rd party apps on the card preloaded, so there is actually about 12gb of free storage out of the box. Switching cards looks like it will be tricky, because its not known yet whether or not the apps can be copied/pasted to a new card of larger or faster capabilities.

    • TheDude

      Wouldn’t you want a screen protector to help against smearing, smudging, and greasy substances on your fingers? I mean, it’s capacitive, so fingernails and a stylus are out. Protector on my iPod brings the smudge county to zero, and I like it that way, easier to see.

  • DarkCloud

    OMG man I Cant wait man I exactly how I felt when the ps3 and Xbox came out every day just feels restless “Come on man HURRY UP ISH!!! I have to have this phone. I wish I could just go to sleep till the 24th man I’m about pop a blood vessel the way I keep look up this phone and how long it’s taking. I bought a nexus one and i don’t even use it I’ve been using my TP2 FPSECE baby but that’s not all just all the stuff you can do with winmo other than being a app crazed lunatic. Also I just bought a MSI BGP100 Bluetooth Gamepad, and the extend battery with kickstand and a bunch of other stuff just waiting. But if there not hyping up the phone just release it already man I’m dying here LOL.

    • Davidohio

      Wow..you seriously need help.

  • Terry

    This phone is amazing, having had hands on time with it. I love android but the hardware combined with sense is just beautiful. The screen is large enough that there is no need for a physical keyboard even in profile. Sorry, I’m not paying half my mortgage for a nexus when Google is letting Verizon sell the cdma nexus in store.

    • Kevin

      I’m with you there 100% that makes me angry. Its all ok though, I have been wanting th HD2 for at least 6 months. So close

  • The Hammer

    I would be first in line at my local store if i wasnt on a damn project out in the middle of BFE Utah in the snow………….But you can bet damn sure illb be on the phone with tmobile and having it shipped to the hotel…..lol

  • Ernie

    Android is very overrated.

    Seems all the kids like Android and thats fine but for me I would like a serious OS and thats why I am going with Windows.

    Android still feels like nintendo 1985 to me.

  • vic

    I just left my local tmo and the rep had one and he let me play with it. It is such a nice phone and this just made me want it even more.

    The rep thought he knew a lot about the phone but I gave him some pointers and some info that he had no clue about. He than gave me that rep I’m not sure of the release date but it could be. Before the end of the month speech and I just replied the 24th great sounds good. He looked at me funny but that’s what they do.

    I really hate clues less reps but he was nice enough to let me have a go with it so I am not mad but I can not wait for it any more.

  • Newcleus

    I don’t know that I’ll need to camp out, but there is a T-Mobile about one mile from be work so I’ll be going down there just before they open. I expect to be the first there since it seems few people know about this. Even the reps at a different T-Mobile store didn’t seem to know much and they definitely weren’t as excited as they should’ve been had they known about it.

  • lev

    I hear ya, I was at my Local Tmobile store in south Florida and asked when the HD2 came out, she told me there was no date, and that they cant officially say a date until they get an email, same with the Cliq XT, I dont know why my stores never have the demos, must be a Florida thing, oh well, either way this phone looks very promising

    • dj lu

      im in miami waiting for 5 months now, how stressfull

  • Bdar

    Auggghhhhh! T-mobile = c*ck-tease. We all know it’s coming “soon”. Just give us the official price & date already. I’m definitely heading to a store today to go try to play with one. And I’m taking off work to be there on the 24th at opening.

  • randall

    put up the preorder, got the CC handy

  • Jonathan

    Honestly, I don’t think it’s Android fanboys that are the problem but more the Nexus One owners. I absolutely love Android and have had less-than-par experiences with Windows Mobile but I am willing to give it another go with this hardware. But wait… If I am not completely satisfied with Sense and Windows Mobile, I can just wait til XDA comes out with a working Android port and here it comes… HAVE A BETTER ANDROID PHONE THAN THE NEXUS ONE OWNERS. How about you all stop bitchin’ about how it doesn’t have Android. Honestly, the remarks are useless rhetoric.

    • Cpiper80

      I wasn’t aware that their was a problem @ all. I don’t mingle with many people when it comes to technology. My T-Mobile contract is up soon and I’ve been seeking out a potential replacement phone. For my personal usage – I think android OS fits my usages better. Light weight OS combines with the a snap dragon processor is what I want for the most speed.

      I guess that if people are seeking something that integrates with their windows @ home and are in love with Microsoft – win is the way to go. I personally find it disappointing with the lack of web flash until winmo 7 comes out – coupled with the idea that the hd2 will not be able to upgrade to winmo 7.

      I personally have not messed around with winmo within the last 2 years.

      I’ve also never owned an android phone.

      What I’m looking @ is specs and performance. How long does it take for the phone to respond to what I want to do?

      Linux shines here.

      Also – how long before this technology is outdated?

      • chaoscentral

        Too bad Android can’t use the power of the snap dragon properly. Even 2.1 on my friend’s Nexus Feels slow and clunky compared to the video’s I have seen of the HD2, and there’s ALOT more going on on the HD2 than the Nexus when it comes to home screen.

        Oh and he has Cyanogen Mod 5 loaded up with the himem kernel, and that device still seems too slow and primitive for me to justify purchasing.

      • Cpiper80

        I unfortunately have not had my hands on either to try them out. But since you mentioned videos I went and looked some up. The ones I viewed were from techno buffalo and phonedog.

        Both of those reviews were in favor of the nexus one in comarison with the hd2 when it came to speed.

        Can you point me to the videos that you’ve seen?

        * the videos I watched were HD2 vs nexus one – side by side comparisons *

        ** I’m not saying nexus one is better – I’m just relaying my interpretation of their opinions**

      • Mockerfab4

        Cpiper, hopefully you read my post earlier where I shared my Android experience (or epic fail). If you missed it a few posts up, here it is:

      • cpiper80

        Mocker:

        Read it – it was an isolated issue with HTC MT3G and not the OS.

      • Mockerfab4

        Cpiper, see my response to you above. I’ve heard similiar problems especially with the phone crashing from the Eris, whom I know people who own it, and advised if they could to return. Hardware was fine with me. It was the software…If you put WM on the HTC hero, about 70% of the issues I mention would not exist…

    • Davidohio

      Agreed. Enough whining, it has win6.5 and nothing will change that until xda can do something about it.

    • CO_Yeti

      I know 2 N1 owners that have hands one with the HD2 and will be putting their N1s for sale as soon as the HD2 comes out… My guess is there will be a lot of cheap N1s on craigslist starting early April!

      • just some dʋde

        HD2 dead in the water, waste of money. no multitasking no flash old outdated OS no chance for upgrades. LOL. Just goes to show some people are clueless.

  • sdadell

    I have been waiting for years for a good Mobile Phone and went with the G1 phone when it came out. I got burned when I camped out for the TouchPro 2. What a disappointment that was so I took it back the next day. I hope the HD2 will sync with our Business Contact Manager contacts instead of just contacts. Otherwise it is worthless and we will have to stay with Android.

  • bigc17

    WOW, this phone seems amazing. Sorry android but, this is my next phone. Come on, how can u say no to this phone 4.3″ touchscreen, 1ghz processor, 5mp camera w/flash, multitouch, 16gb micro sd card included, and a design as slim as a pencil, what’s not to like about this phone. After all that, and a 199.99 price tag, man, this is gonna be my next phone. Yes, it is true that lots of teens like android (other than the ones who like the iphone) because I’m a teenager myself and I have an android phone but, I know a lot about electronics and the nexus one doesn’t have a 4.3″ screen, the slimest form factor on any smartphone, more video formats and entertainment capabilities, a wi-fi router/modem or a 16gb sd card included with the phone. Android may be a pretty nice os and windows mobile may have a kinda bat rep sometimes but, with windows mobile 6.5 w/sense ui on top of that, you know it’s gonna be an amazing phone. This isn’t about whether it’s an iphone or a nexus one killer or not but, it’s better than both of them in my book.

  • waiting2hd2

    I included accessories does not mention the HTC sleeve that came aboard in the Euro models. So does that mean it will not come with a cover/sleeve for the hd2? If not does anyone know if there is a way to get one (htc sleeve)? thanks

    • Mockerfab4

      eBay. I just bought 2 hard cases, soft case, retractable car charger, screen protecter, all under $20. Of course, they are all coming from China and will take 10 months to get here.

  • Matt N

    I love the hardware specs of this phone, and don’t mind the OS either (although MW6.5 is seriously show it’s age). Before I had my current G1 I was running an HTC Tytn (Hermes) and loved it…

    But…

    For this kind of cash, I could not justify it without hearing 100% ironclad confirmation from both HTC and Microsoft that it will have a WM7 upgrade available. If I could get that promise, I would preorder this device right now, as it is I’ll likely be an N1 owner until the first crop of WM7 devices come out this fall.

    What I want to see, really, is a phone like the HTC Diamond that works on the T-mobile USA 3G network. My wife had a Euro model diamond and, seriously, it was the sexiest handset ever. It makes the iPhone look like Joe Merrick.

    (Additional flamebait so I don’t leave anyone out: windows mobile sucks, android suck, iphone sucks, htc sucks)

    (additional additional flamebait: if you take all these comments and change ‘android’ to PS3 and ‘windows mobile’ to ‘xBox 360′, It’s just like the IGN forums!)

      @ Matt N

      I am sorry but there will be no Windows Phone 7 Series Upgrade for this phone.

      But Windows Phone 7 Series will be on their next phone HTC HD3. ;)

      • Mockerfab4

        Nick, that will definitely be my next phone, after HD2. ;)

  • Garet

    1 reason not to get it is they have already said this phone will not get winmo7 update it doesn’t meet the requirements I think it was the amount of buttons. and there you have it an outdated phone.But like someone stated XDA will most likely have Android or Winmo7 to put on if you don’t mind hacking your phone.

  • Wilma Flintstone

    I will not be camping out for a phone. I will, however, be getting this phone on day 1. I’m just wondering what’s the best way to buy it (For Data Plan reasons), unlocked or Subsidized?

    • chaoscentral

      unsubsidized you end up saving 300 over the 2 years and its 20 a month cheaper

      • Wilma Flintstone

        Yes Unsubsidized paying outright would be cheaper if you go the EM+ route.

        It’ll be about the same as subsidized if you go unlocked with 20 payments because they add it to your bill which will push the $79 unlimited everything back up to around $99 and then you end up losing because now you have given up your upgrade discount for no contract but are still paying regular subsidized pricing. After the $20 months, then yes.

        I’m asking because if I want to buy the HD2 under subsidized pricing but want to get unlimited everything for around $84. I’m paying $50 for unlimited talk and $15 for unlimited text right now. My bill is usually around $72 a month. If I get the bundled Unlimited Text and Web for $34, that’ll be $84 a month for unlimited everything before taxes of course. I just don’t want to pay $100 for unlimited everything.

      • Wilma Flintstone

        Thanks for helping though. I may just buy it Unlocked in full.

    All i have to say is Andriod Lovers = the retards of the world

    • Davidohio

      Ryan, you are a dick. Go crawl back under the rock you crawl out from under! Loser.

      • John

        @ Davidohio

        And you are a douche. Go back to your hole Android troll.

    • just some dʋde

      Ryan do you get embarrassed when you tell people you have a WM phone, I feel so sorry for you dude. I bet you bought a ZUNE too. LOL.

      • David, Managing Editor

        I think at this point we are all embarrassed for someone who trolls the comments looking to make Windows Phone jabs.

      • just some dʋde

        I take it Dave your a WM fan then.

        • David, Managing Editor

          Does it matter if I am a fan? What matters is that I don’t go around inciting argument unnecessarily because I have nothing better to do. Give up bro, people love the OS that they love. End of discussion.

      • just some dʋde

        dont feel bad for dave, i do this on most WM and some android/WM forums, I also have multiple user names and IP’s on this board and on others. Its a living.

  • Bob

    You guys look bored with all this waiting so I thought I would give you something to do to pass time. Here you go:
    When is the next high end Android phone coming to TMO?
    Knock yourselves silly…

    • Mockerfab4

      Hopefully never. One less post on the many problems it will have. :)

    • TheDude

      Hopefully soon so we can flood the post with comments like “I would get this if it had WP7 on it” or “Why get this phone when there are better Windows phones out?” and the like ;)

    • just some dʋde

      Don’t know about T-mobile, but i do know my high end nexus one kicks butt.

  • Wilma Flintstone

    Hey all HD2 fans, I just logged in to my Tmobile account and searched for “HD2″ and it came up with a button for “Upgrade”. I’m not sure if this qualifies as preorder or what but I just thought I’d let all the HD2 fans know. Hope it helps.

  • dj lu

    Android fag boys I mean fan boys need to stop hating on the HD2 Hello!!!!!! we should be on the same teem HTC makes android phones too!!!!! Forget it I take it back keep hating it just shows how much you love the Beast!!! lol………………………………………………………………………..

    • Green Robot

      ANDROID…

    • Mgoggles

      I don’t think any of them are hating. Sure they want the HD2 to run Android because it’s a sexy phone with 4.3″ screen. It’s just a wish. And Hello!!!! If we are the same team then calling Android fans ‘fag’ seems immature.

    • Davidohio

      @dj lu…teem is spelled team. Winmo fag.

      • dj lu

        @DavidGayOhio thanks for the heads up on the word team. Sorry but I was texting that from my Gay Android Phone that is to small for my fingers.

      • just some dʋde

        @DJ lu dont knock the Android phones they are rocks solid, built on a unix platform. unlick those crappy WM phones.

    • just some dʋde

      The beast? what the heck does that mean?

  • Mike

    I’m going to get it. But how much would the HTC HD2 data services be??? Adroid,blackberry,sidekick has there own prices for unlimited web/text plan. Does anybody know???

    • tato22

      same price as blackberry g1 mytouch nexus one moto cliq there all the same price

  • bigc17

    I’m on a 2 year t-mobile contract, anyone know how much the hd2 will be if I want to upgrade. I already have a data plan (for android though) but I would rather get this phone so, cany anyone tell me. Ps/ does anybody know if any t-mobile stores have a working hd2 display or even a dummy phone.

    • Davidohio

      Call customer care, it depends on how far along you are in your contract. As far as the phone, call your local store.

  • vic

    I just wanted to say that as a long time blackberry fan and an owner of an nexus one I get where all of the android talk is coming from but really its not needed. Every phone has its bright spots but to say dumb shit like some have said is just plan stupid. And btw for the person that said flash is not no this device check your facts because the explore web browser does have flash and you can use skyfire. But if you android fan boys can’t find anything else to do but put down a phone go play with the IPhone fanboys because both of your devices are not that great.

  • Aston

    i’m waiting for winmo7. :)

  • Cybersedan

    I own a nexus one, but plan to add the HD2 to my handset lineup.

    All the bashing both ways is simply childish.

  • Matthew

    I will definitely be among the first to get this phone!

  • jp2dj1

    I second that motion!!!!!!

  • http://hiphopthugz.com nkog

    well with my luck the local tmobile store probably wont get any in like they did with the touch pro 2. ended up having to order it and wait even more days, i am crossing my fingers hoping they have them in stock on the 24th.

  • jp2dj1

    I love my g1, but I need a better phone. The nexus one, there two problems with that (1) it doesn’t have a physical keyboard and (2) the way you have to buy it totally sucks! Where the htc hd2 has one problem, that it hasn’t have a physical keyboard, but I could go to tmobile and buy it in payments. I’ll buy this until the nexus two comes out!!!!!!!!!

  • Jose

    i am diff gonna get this phone bye bye iphone hello HD2 :-) i have class from 8-10 so am going to race to the closes tmo store and hopefully dey have it.

  • Straptin958

    My question is… Do you think that this phone is slated for a march 24th release date still? I feel like its some what early to be putting the phone on the site for a release date that is more than 2 weeks away.

    When the TP2 came out the phone only appeared on the site 2 to 3 days before it came out… Believe me I was on that site every couple of hours to check.

    Wouldnt mind seeing an earlier release date but the 24th isnt that far away regardless.

    And for the individuals that keep bashing this phone because it POSSIBLY MIGHT NOT get WM7 upgrade, I ask has XDA ever failed us before.

    Lookin forward to trying to fit this huge ish in my pocket.

  • Rigel

    I am using Sprint and am coming to T-Mobile just for this phone. Sprint may be getting the HTC Supersonic later in the year, but I am to buy “Now”. ;-)
