HTC Droid Incredible Hardware Tour

2010-04-24
whats up guys its CJ lips true from pocket now calm in this video we're going to take a look at the hardware of the HTC droid incredible from verizon like the HTC Desire and nexus one the incredible is lightning fast thanks to a 1 gigahertz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor it also has 8 gigabytes of internal storage 748 megabytes of rom and 512 megabytes of ram Bluetooth Wi-Fi GPS FM radio all the other usual suspects are here as well the front of the device has a glossy black finish near the top we have proximity and light sensors a metallic red speaker grill and an LED light for notifications below the verizon logo we have a large 3.7 inch capacitive multi-touch display with wvga resolution so that's 480 across by 800 down let's slides it up next to a touch pro 2 with a slightly smaller 3.6 inch display and next to an HTC pure with an even smaller 3.2 inch display the incredibles display is of AMOLED technology so blacks are going to be crisp and colors should be nice and vibrant it should also help with battery life at the bottom we have a row of capacitive touch buttons the four buttons are for home menu back and search so far I found them to be very responsive and they don't get in the way of a regular screen usage at all below that we have an optical trackpad for on-screen navigation which can be pressed in and used as a selector if we turn to the left side of the device we have an up and down volume rocker a micro USB port on the bottom we have a lanyard hole a latch for removing the battery cover and a microphone on the right side absolutely nothing and up top we have a three point three point five millimeter headphone jack and the power button moving to the back we have a beautiful eight megapixel autofocus camera with dual-led flash as you can see it does stick out a bit but the edges aren't sharp at all next to that we have a speaker which I found to be quite good in terms of loudness and clarity large HTC branding and at the bottom we have with Google splashed along the bottom so reading through some comments a lot of you seem to really dislike the multi-layered design of the soft touch battery cover I certainly don't blame you as it is unconventional and it looks rather odd at first I will say this though during the last couple of days I've actually found that it's starting to grow on me there's nothing out there that looks like it so it's kind of an eye catcher the layer design helps improve grip and I just think the look of it fits the droid title nicely another thing I noticed is that it gives the speaker some room to breathe so when it's laying flat on a surface it's not going to sound as muffled as it probably would otherwise so while you might may not like the design right now perhaps after some time passes you'll find that it starts to grow on you one thing that does concern me is the quality of the cover the feels solid while attached to the rest of the phone as it doesn't really Creek or bend in words but when you remove it you can see that it's super flimsy and extremely bendable I actually feel like it's going to snap in half right now of course battery covers are meant to stay on most of the time and most of you aren't going to twist and torture it like I'm doing right now but hopefully still stays on tightly over time as we saw during the unboxing the inside of the device is completely red it kind of reminds me of an expensive sports car and I can't say this enough but I really like what HTC is doing with some of these devices I think it's a good thing that they're adding these custom colors behind some of these battery covers we saw with the HTC HD Mini it has an all yellow interior the incredible has an all red interior and I can't wait to see what color will see next on a future device so moving on we have a microSD slot on the side which supports up to 32 gigs I really like that they put it on the side rather than under the battery cover which they sometimes do with some devices and its really annoying so let's go ahead and close it up alright with the battery in the incredible feels good in hand it's really light but with enough heft and grip to feel like it won't fly out of your hand which is definitely a good thing so this was the hardware tour of the HTC droid incredible to stay on top of all of our latest videos make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel thanks for watching
