HTC Touch Diamond: A Smartphone in any Facet
The HTC Touch Diamond lived up to being the first real competitor for iPhone. It is taller and thinner than HTC Touch, its predecessor, while it packs a punch with its array of multimedia features. True to its name, the faceted design of the phone cover is likened to a diamond.
The HTC Touch Diamond has a number of auto-features. An example is how the phone wakes up from sleep once you remove the stylus that is held in place by a magnet. The phone's backlight auto-adjusts on the current lighting of the surroundings so users will have no problems viewing the screen even under direct sunlight. The user can also auto-trigger the silent mode of the phone by resting it on its face.
One of the main features of this phone is its TouchFLO 3D. The TouchFLO 3D gives easy and animated access to the phone’s services such as email and messaging.
It also offers a lot of improvement on web-based services. The phone uses modified Opera Mobile 9.5 instead of Mobile IE. It uses a modified version so users of the HTC Touch Diamond can browse the web one-handed. As a result, it makes web-based services as easy as sending messages or making calls. It also has a special version of YouTube installed and retains the GPS capabilities available in HTC phones.
Pros
- Slimmer than HTC Touch, its predecessor
- It does not need a memory card slot because of its 4 GB internal storage.
- It has a higher VGA display resolution than its predecessor or the iPhone.
Cons
- The screen attracts a lot of fingerprints making it look oily and unclean.
Overall
The HTC Touch Diamond has a solid feel and is very comfortable in the hands. Its design is simply elegant; its faceted cover gives it a personality apart from other PDA phones.
