HTC HD2 Battery Upgrade Images Surface
Well, it’s a kickstand.
The fact that you can now place you HTC HD2 on the table and have it stand on its own is not really that much of a big deal, but the fact that the new battery adds plenty of hours of usage really is impressive.
Extended batteries always have the drawback of being large and bulky. Of course, it is one of those things you only purchase if you really need it. So the next time you know that you might just want to go out for several days, this extended battery would be great to pack with the regular battery.
The new battery is a full 2300 mAh lithium ion battery. It delivers plenty of hours of continuous use at the cost of a slightly bulkier phone. The HD2 itself is a very slim phone, so if you have gotten used to it, the extra thickness will certainly be very noticeable. A small flap on the back turns into a kick stand for the device to prop it up.
For those who are unfamiliar with the HTC HD2 it is one of the more successful Windows Mobile devices for the use of the HTC Sense user interface as a skin over the WinMo OS. This workaround brought the features and functions of the OS to the users without the annoying WinMo user interface. Thanks to the Sense, the HD2 uses a capacitive touch screen.
The design of the WinMo OS is made in such as way that pressing icons and buttons requires a stylus, using a finger on the screen is difficult because of this and as such, the WinMo was geared towards resistive touch screens more. No word has been given if the HD2 is updatable to the upcoming WinMo 6.5.3 Maldives update.
