The 5-megapixel Touch HD is an exciting endeavor for High Tech Computer Corporation (HTC) and the first device to overpower the iPhone in nearly every technical aspect. Starting with the 5-megapixel camera, the 3.8-inch 800 x 480 resolution touchscreen to the 288MB of RAM for multi-tasking, the Touch HD is a powerhouse. Our friends at Technophone have had the device for a week now and have put together some of their first impressions along with a few sample photos to help us determine the quality of the 5-megapixel camera.

Here are some of the highlights of their coverage:
- WOW effect: 10 (to make a comparison iPhone was 9 and Diamond
- The materials used are excellent, it is nice and solid the rear is not as polished or iPhone Diamond, then there is no risk of scratches.
- The screen is touch sensitive .. here too close to the iPhone, despite having two technologies of different touch.
- You move in the menu so agile and immediate. There are no annoying slowdowns and expectations.
- The external speaker has a good quality when you receive a call or a text message sounds good and strong there is no risk of losing the call.
When it comes to imaging, the 5-megapixel camera was described as, “Images are not bad, but I was expecting something more, especially in view there is too pastel effect”. We’ll let you be the judge from the sample photos above.

Why are those pictures’ resolution 500×299 (0.15 megapixel)? This is a 5 megapixel camera. Those sample photos are nearly worthless.
