Network Freedom with the HTC HD2 SIM Free

November 16th, 2009

The most advanced HTC handset to date has today been released SIM free and network unlocked, the HTC HD2 also known as the Touch HD2 has already been added to O2, Vodafone and T-Mobile’s tariff portfolio as well as receiving a Pay As You Go launch but now this amazing new phone is available with no network ties whatsoever.

The SIM Free HTC HD2 can be connected to any network on either pay monthly contract or pay as you go depending on the SIM card you currently use, this latest launch for this massive 4.3 inch touch screen HTC phone also means that you no longer have to pass a network credit check to own the handset, great news if you struggle with a dodgy credit rating.

HTC HD2

HTC HD2

The HTC HD2 delivers an experience your senses have been waiting for. The unprecedented 4.3-inch pixel-packed display is stunning. The worlds first capacitive touch technology on a Windows phone along with 1 GHz processing power ensure a smooth and lightning-fast response to the lightest touch of your finger.

Most importantly, it is our first Windows phone to embody HTC Sense – a holistic experience that focuses on making phones work in the most intuitive way. HTC Sense is based on three core principles – make it mine, stay close, and discover the unexpected.

Make It Mine

HTC HD2’s expansive display is like a canvas on which you create a phone that is just right for you. Customize the phone by prioritizing essential features like mail, calendar, messaging, browser and more. Next, with just a tap, put shortcuts to the most important people, favorite websites, or most used application right on the home screen. And if you feel like something is still missing, visit Windows Marketplace for Mobile, and install fun and useful applications.

Your phone doesn’t only reflect your personality; it also tunes into your location. The clock automatically updates to the local time wherever you are. You can see the outside temperature and weather at a glance. And, if you choose the weather wallpaper, you’ll get a brilliantly lifelike animation that lets you virtually feel the suns rays or the chill of the breeze without setting a foot outside.

Stay Close

With the HTC HD2, communication is focused around people rather than applications, so all of your interactions like email, SMS, phone logs, and even updates from Facebook are all in one place. Right where your instinct tells you to look – next to the photo of the person with whom you want to stay in touch with.

In business, a phone call often has the power to prevent a mile-long pile up of inconclusive emails. The HTC Touch HD2 makes it simple to go from reading an email to calling the sender. All it takes is a single tap on the large phone icon right from the email. And if you need to get everyone involved in the discussion – just tap next to the images of everyone to create an instant conference call.

Forget the challenge of jumping from your calendar to your phone application while trying to find and memorize the number for your next conference call. On the HTC HD2, conference call reminders conveniently appear with a big dial button ready for you to press, even the PIN is displayed, so you’ll never miss out on the latest strategy session.
