The HTC Touch Diamond Mobile Phone

So let’s get down to business and find out what you exactly you get for your money. To start off you get and nice crisp VGA quality screen. From a connectivity point of view it has HSDPA, WI-FI and Bluetooth including A2DP so you can wirelessly stream music to any compatible device. In addition to that is has a 4GB memory and a 3.2 mega pixel camera on the back with the whole thing run on Windows 6.1 with the main browser been Opera. Some of the things that you don’t get with this phone are a flash for your camera, a 3.5mm headphone socket and there is no micro SD slot because they have done so much to cram everything into this handset to make it small that they could not find room to fit it in.

With the Wi -Fi and HSDA for connectivity, web browsing is the core of the phone. Instead of using the most well know and popular browser Internet Explorer they have taken a brave move to run Opera mobile instead. What this means for the user is that you get on the whole a much more intuitive and user friendly browser with most functions been performed with just one finger either sliding up and down the screen or a double tap to select the next link and load the page as well as the accelerometer can be used to rotate the page when the phone is turned on its side. Just like the browsers on your own PC there is a function for multiple tabs and even access to YouTube which seems to be a much have for any multimedia phone.

Getting your email is another effortless and pleasant experience with the HTC Touch Diamond mobile phones using the standard Microsoft Mail. You can change the setting so you get you email downloaded every 5 mins, uninterrupted so you can always check if you have got new email as soon as you take it out of your pocket and of course you can automatically send and receive your mail almost anywhere.

As mentioned before there are some downsides to the HTC Diamond Touch such as no flash for the camera, no 3.5mm headphone jack and no micro SD memory slot. It does however have some pretty impressive features such as a great interface when you are playing music which allows you to change tracks just by swishing up and down on the screen as well as quite a loud speaker for you when you are not using headphones.

The 3.2 mega pixel camera is easy and straight forward to use but as said before no flash, but this camera is much better than the iPhone.

Once pictures have been taken you swirl your finger around the screen one way to zoom in and another to zoom out again. Some of the other options are to create a slide show, attach it to an email, make it your home screen image plus a variety of other standard options.

There are one or two addictive games which make very good use of the very responsive accelerometer as well as options to download the weather for different local and world locations including the ability to request a 5 day forecast.

The HTC Touch Diamond is defiantly one of the main competitors to the Apple iPhone and you can find it at less than half the price and many instances for free on many major networks.
