The HTC Touch HD, also known as the HTC T828X or its codename the HTC Blackstone, is a Windows Mobile 6.1 -powered luxury Pocket PC designed and manufactured by HTC. Part of the HTC Touch Family, it most notably features a larger, higher-resolution display than those found in most smart-phones available at the time, a 5-megapixel camera, a second front facing camera to enable Videophone functionality, an accelerometer, GPS, FM RDS radio reception, high resolution video recording capability and SD Micro card compatibility (up to 64 GB). It also features quad band GSM and dual band UMTS connectivity, as well as the proprietary TouchFLO 3D user interface developed by HTC. However, it lacks the left side slide-out keyboard of the HTC Touch Pro.

Details of the device were leaked[1] several days before an official press release[2] and a new product page[3] confirmed the specifications and the release date in Europe (Q4 2008). HTC announced that the Touch HD will be available in the UK from November 7 2008[4]. While the FCC has approved the HTC Touch HD for the US[5], HTC has confirmed that the device will not officially be available in the US [6].
