E-mail experiences in HTC HD2, iPhone, Nexus One and WebOS compared

May 10, 2010 | By Surur

I just came across this rather old video from Pocketnow comparing the email experience on the HTC HD2, iPhone 3GS, Google Nexus One and Palm Pre. The HTC HD2 fares surprisingly well, and I think Brandon missed another area where the device scores points over the iPhone 3GS – switching between mail accounts, which is extremely painful on the iPhone but a simple swipe on the HTC HD2.

Now if Microsoft only allowed us to download pictures automatically…

Google Nexus One selling slower than Palm Pre?

April 16, 2010 | By Surur

Google’s HTC made Nexus One is well known for not setting any sales records, but now Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster is predicting sales that in this day and age can only be called abysmal.

Munster said in a research note:

While we view Google’s Nexus One as the most advanced Android phone available to date, we believe that based on checks from Piper Jaffray analyst Mike Walkley and data released by mobile analytics companies, the phone has not seen the same success in the market as the Droid and other alternatives. Previously we expected the phone would ultimately reach carrier stores for sale, which has not yet happened. Our prior estimate of 350k Nexus One’s sold in Q1 appears aggressive and we believe the number may be closer to 160k for Q1; this represents a $100 million reduction to top-line revenue, but a $0.06 improvement to earnings as we expect Nexus One to carry a lower operating margin than Google’s core search product, for which we increased estimates.

The handset was called the first “super smartphone” by Google, but has been plagued by issues such as poor screen responsiveness, poor daylight performance and lack of support by Google which has seen both enthusiasm and sales flag very soon after release.

HTC HD2 beats Motorola Droid and Google Nexus to iPhone killer crown

Now Channel 5’s Gadget Show are clearly not Windows Mobile lovers, as anyone can realize by 2 minutes into the video, but despite this the super smartphone still beat out the much hyped Motorola Droid (in its European Milestone incarnation) and the Google Nexus, which looks rather unsophisticated next to the HTC Sense UI on the HTC HD2.

Fair win? Let us know below.

Another HTC HD2 vs Nexus One video

February 7, 2010 | By Surur

Our least favourite video reviewer has published this video comparing the HTC HD2 vs the Google Nexus One. While getting the screen size wrong and complaining about the Windows Mobile settings when Sense settings completely replaces it does not do much for his credibility, the video may be useful to some who are comparing the device on style and screen size, both areas where the HTC HD2 indisputably rules.
