Here’s a long video that was shot with the HTC HD2. Unfortunately quality isn’t up-to what you can expect from a high-end device like this one especially when you know that the Qualcomm SnapDragon chipset is capable on encoding 720P videos (it’s still better than most WinMo phones though). HTC did a fairly good job improving the picture quality and speed of their camera in the last year, hopefully they will now put as much effort in improving the camcorder feature. I just hope that the phone doesn’t have a shitty lens cover because there seems to be a red tint/dot at the center of every video and picture (like the HTC Touch Diamond, but it was bleu).
