One of the problems with the HD2 that has surfaced is a pinkish tint in the center of pictures taken with it’s camera. I don’t use cameras on my phones too often, but I did have a request to see if my demo is experiencing this issue. I took a photo of a piece of paper and here it is…

Both photos were taken with nothing changed on the HD2’s camera. The photo on the left was without my overhead and side lights on and the one on the right with them on.

The pinkish hue is present on both. This issue has already been addressed as a software issue and HTC is supposedly working on a patch to clear it up already. I can’t confirm this 1st hand, but that’s what the interwebz are telling us. I will know more about it after the holiday hopefully.

    Thanks, Chris, for testing the camera for us. The widely reported pink aura defect is there. On the left photo, we can see the outer areas of the image are green, and in the center it is orange. That's a very large degree of hue shift, considering the subject (the piece of paper) is plain white.

    I think the HD2 is the first Project Pink phone. :D
