HTC launched one latest mobile, which many people called it as the Windows phone. Why is it a Windows phone? Because the HTC (model: HD2) mobile utilises the Microsoft Window's technology (version 6.5). Very similar to the iPhone, or perhaps contained better feature and graphical options compared to the iPhone, this mobile also offer extraordinary outlook, at least to me.

I think the outlook of the phone is also very similar to the iPhone. By the way, please click on the images to enlarge the size.

This mobile utilises the Microsoft Windows operating system, which means we may now work on presentation slides (Microsoft Powerpoint), writting essays (Microsoft Words) and conducting statistical analysis (Microsoft Excel) anywhere we want, saving the work into the mobile and whilst transfering the files through the USB from the mobile, directly to our computers when necessary.

Besides that, what really fancy me is the graphical applications. The applications such as the Windows media player is so similar to the one that I use everyday to listen to music, with my computer.

The 5.0 Megapixel camera phone with a 4.3 inch touch-based display was revealed to be on sale sometime around November 2009, with a price of £550.00 or contract based (I assume £30.00 per month in a 18 months contract). The dimension of this phone is 120.5 x 67 x 11 mm and its weight is 157g. From what I read, this machine contained a miniUSB hub, for easier file transfer. Besides that, the standby time the battery of this phone is 20.5 days, extremely useful for people who travel very often.

I heard this mobile contained much more applications than the iPhone. Anyway, I believe this is the current strongest competitor for iPhone. Since the price for both iPhone and the HTC HD2 is so similar, which mobile will you go for? You decide.
