HTC Touch - My Latest Acquisition

HTC Touch Black
Three words define this phone - Black , Touch and Cutting Edge.

Black - Everything about this phone is royal black giving it an extremely modern n classy look. It comes across as sexy device with amazing screen resolution flaunting a black theme. The interface is exactly like Windows Vista. A slim rim of metal encapsulated its all black anti-slip body. There is also a bit of metal to highligh its 2 Megapixel camera.

Touch - Though the phone comes with a stylus ( and an extra one too, if you happen to loose the first ), you wont feel like to take the pain to pull out the stylus. All you need is to quickly fix the scrach gaurd on the screen and start tapping the screen of the phone with your fingers. This phone boasts of the technology called TouchFLO where various menus appear as sides of a 3 - D cube and you can flip it by running your fingers across the screen as you are rolling the cube with your fingers.

The speed dial is also a picture based speed dial which is more of an album of important people. Just tap the picture and make the call.

The phone is equipped with an onscreen keyboard which response quite precisely with finger taps. One can easily alter the text and button sizes to make finger tapping inputs easier.

 Cutting Edge : Most of the PDAs or smart phones hit you hard at one point which doesnt hurt you most but still hurt of bad enough. I saw atleast 6~8 PDAs before finalizing this one. Those all ranged between Rs. 16,000 to Rs. 28,000. Each of them wither had a 1.3 MP camera , or had bluetooth 1.2 or didnt have Wi-fi. To top it all , there were no windows 6.0 equipped PDAs for less than 25,000/-. This one has it all . Wi-fi 8.02 b/g , Bluetooth 2.0, 1 Gb Micro SD Card, Extra Stylus , Screen Scratch Gaurd , A leather Pouch, Stereo Headset ( awsome Music quality and amplifications matches ipod neck to neck ) and WINDOWS 6.0 with Active Synch which in single touch syncronised all emails, files, photos, music and contacts.

 Last but not the LEast it displays weather information even for indian cities like Kolkata, Delhi, Mumbai etc. It also shows weather forecasts for next four days ( on being provided internet access either through Wi-Fi or GPRS )

The cons i found in this phone is : No Flash, Not that great indoor image capture , no EDGE ( but EDGE doenst matter in India )

The Touch does have EDGE. Read the manual, the HTC website or the article on Wikipedia.

Point Taken. But the thing that kinda pinch me now is lack of FM player and battery. The battery isnt that bad it lasts for two days with some music ( about one and half an hour, two hours of talking time and lots of bubble breaker game ) . The real problem is easy to leave Wi-fi and/or Bluetooth on which drains the battery as they intermitently keep on seeking networks
