HTC has announed the imminent release of its newest smart phone, the HTC Touch Diamond.
The main features include a 2.8 inch touch screen including HTCs new Touch Flow 3D, running on Microsofts Windows Mobile 6.1 OS. It has HSDPA for up to 7.2 mbps data access, 3.2 mpx autofocus camera, 4gb internal storage, GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth. All in a 110g 102 x 51 x 11.33mm mobile.
The Touch Flow 3D interface gives access to all main phone features via a carousel you spin with your fingure, allowing quick, attractive access to you emails, texts, calls, internet and weather.
The spec sheet makes this phone look like it does have the potential to break into the N95’s market share, but there are a few niggling little things missing. For one, theres no flash on the camera, so theres only so many uses for it. Theres also no external memory card slot, so no way to expand that 4Gb memory. Although for most, 4gb is more than enough, unless your looking to take thousands of songs or hundreds of movies with you.
With my upgrade due soon after the HTC touch is released, I am very tempted to make the change, and probably will unless Sony Ericssons Xperia X1 gets a release date before.
