Both are bound to change the way you think about your phone, you will no longer have friends crowded around you to show off a collection of photos or a new movie, instead you can simply plug into the TV at your friend's house. As such, you get a TV-out cable in the box with the handset or you can stream media over your home network using the "Connected Home" application. Samsung seems to be aware that while you might like watching videos on the bus or train, you probably want to switch to a bigger screen when you get home. The media players are simple, colourful and easy to use, with the music player featuring an Apple Cover Flow-style album art display when in landscape mode. It supports one of the most complete selections of file types we've seen in a phone including DivX, XviD, H.264, MP4, WMV video and MP3, AAC, WMA audio files. Multimedia playback is far from standard. Business users will be pleased to learn that Samsung includes a fully licensed version of RoadSync with the HD, making it possible to connect the phone to your office MS Exchange server and sync your mail, contacts and calendar. The pre-installed web browser is standard fare, and though it can be slow to load pages, it is easy to navigate.
#Hd icon plus plus
There's the smartphone basics: HSDPA, Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, 8GB internal storage plus a micro SD card slot for expansion. That's right, folks, Samsung has packed everything in here. Samsung is embracing the switch to a universal microSD connection for charging and USB transfers rather than using a proprietary connection, which is music to our ears. A 3.5mm on top of the phone means you can bring your own headphones, which is lucky for the disappointing in-ear headphones bundled with the handset. Out of the box the HD carries a certain elegance about it that we soon soiled with a myriad of greasy fingerprints. The HD is cased in sleek piano black plastic with a band of silver mechanical keys below the screen. Watching videos on the HD Icon is a real treat. The AMOLED display technology Samsung is using across its Icon range is such an exciting step forward in mobile phones, the colours on screen look rich and vibrant next to deep blacks. Not only is the screen one of the largest available but it looks stunning. For the "size matters" crowd this is a win, we know there are people who love their phones to feel solid and who feel biggest is best when it comes to screen size.
