hey guys this is adam lane with pocket now calm we're going to give you a quick hardware tour of the HTC hd7 from t-mobile let's check it out so first off you got your 4.3 inch LCD screen this is a really big screen and at the top we got HTC and t-mobile logos with a speaker grill there's a little LED light in there can't see it unless it's shining but it's in there and we assume there's some proximity sensors and whatnot in there as well down at the bottom we got our capacitive buttons you can't really feel them unless they're on and you press them and at the bottom we have another speaker grill but that isn't really a speaker it's just decoration so no stereo speakers here kind of unfortunate at the bottom you got your 3.5 millimeter headset jack and a micro USB port and a microphone hole over here we got your volume up and down buttons you got a little plus sign there and here's your dedicated camera button and half presses to focus and then press is all the way in to take the picture one thing i don't like about this is you have to press it really hard to take a picture look how hard i have to press it and hold down for three seconds and the camera will pop up yeah see there we go I'm going to press it down pretty hard there's our camera and then you got to press it hard again to take a picture which is a pain because it's so recessed it's really hard to feel so that's that's one thing I don't like same with the power button here we have our power button at the top and you can see it is very flush so when you press this it's hard to feel see I press it there's no real click it works it goes off and on but there's no not much movement there so it's hard to feel it's hard to know if you press it unless you look at the screen so now I'm pressing it too lightly there we go so that's another thing I don't like you can compare this to the hd2 which has a really satisfying click I just came in here for your power switch on the back we got something special this is our little metal plate is a kickstand so that's pretty cool I like that a lot of people weren't too pleased with the look of this but personally I really like it now we here we have our dual LED flash for the camera and there's your 5 megapixel camera and this is another speaker grill back there you can see some more audio comes out of there and it seems pretty sturdy I suppose if you really force that you could break this plasticky but it looks kind of like metal here's our HTC logo and little hd7 emblem with some metal there and your windows phone logo now to open it there's a little slit up here I'm going to put your fingernail in there and get app ulit so this is really a really thin plastic and there's our batter you have a little ribbon here to remove the battery that pops out like that and this is only a 1230 milli ampere hours so same as the old hd2 um not so great not so big down here is our SIM card slot and we have heard that there's a micro micro SD card under here but you're not allowed to move remove it I mean you could if you had like a screwdriver and hammer but we do not recommend doing that because it's definitely going to void your warranty and you're probably going to break your phone so try to avoid doing that from those other websites and over here we have this plastic back here is translucent so you can kind of see underneath some parts that's that's kind of cool there anyway put that back on terms of specs this is a one be heard processor you got 512 megs of ram the usual suspects for windows phone 7 I got a lot of fingerprints there now and it's got 16 gigs of internal storage and as we mentioned four it's non removable and not upgradeable but there we go pretty nice the only things I don't like is that these buttons dhoni thanks for watching and that's it for now
