i have been waiting for another phone a better phone since i bought the mogul phone from sprint. the mogul is ok but it freezes a lot and i wanted better technology. then i heard about the htc touch pro and i wanted to try it. I have had the HTC touch pro for about a week now and i must say it is a really nice phone. I couldnt ask for anything better right now. sometimes it lags a little but over all i am impressed with the phone. i added sling player and it look great. i am over all very happy with my purchase.

Disappointed

Let me start by saying I stalked this phone and had high hopes for it.  I've always heard good things about HTC and wanted to get the Tilt until I was told they had new phones coming out.  Everything I read about the Touch Pro looked very good.  I bought it on Oct 26 when Best Buy got it in. 


I spent time getting to know the phone, the TouchFlo, and WinMo6.1.  I decided to disable the TouchFlo because it seemed to run slowly.  WinMo6.1 is definitely an improvement over 5 but is still a bit buggy.  The phone was designed pretty well overall but there are things I feel are missing.  My Treo 700w had a switch at the top to switch the phone to Vibrate.  When I switch to the slider (horizontal) view, sometimes it takes a while to switch and sometimes it doesn't switch to horizontal at all because the program or page isn't designed to (I assume).  I had to reset the phone at least once the day I got it because it froze, and a few more time throughout the week.  Battery life is pretty bad.  I get in to work at 7am and by 11 or so, the battery is about to die.  I now keep a charger at my desk at work.  Speaking of chargers, it's very nice that the data/power port is mini-usb.  I bought 2 extra usb cables, a usb wall plug, and usb car plug all for $10 shipped and now I have 3 chargers for my phone (including the one that came with it).  Usually chargers are 30 or 40+ each.


I would like to see a firmware update or something from HTC soon.  Not sure on their plans for that.





- Charger can be cheaply made (bought 2 more usb cables, a usb wall plug, and usb car plug for $10)
- GPS isn't bad at all. A little slower than standalone units but works well with the traffic option
- Supports 32GB MicroSDHC. I currently use an 8GB MicroSDHC card.
- Threaded text messaging (courtesy of WinMo6.1)
- Full QWERTY keyboard
- No Physical keyboard button for Start Menu
- Battery Life
- Freezes
- Lags (even without using the TouchFlo)
- No physical button/switch for switching to vibrate
- Swapping between vertical and horizontal views doesn't always work smoothly
- The screen randomly turns on even when sitting flat on a tabletop
- No headphone/headset jack (only bluetooth headsets)

I've been through a lot of touch phones through the summer from the Instint, the Glyde, these phones were all toys with no real function. I even tried a BB Curve, all were dissapointing. until I got a HTC Touch, finally a phone that was a functional tool. I got My touch Pro a few days ago and the full Qwerty keyboard did add some girth, but is a breeze to use.

This phone packs plenty of features, and unlimited ability. I did experience some lag in switching tasks and also had the phone lock or freeze 3x two with an incoming call and once in a call. hopefully a limited issue.





full qwerty keyboard

SD card

MMS

The touchflo UI is great
WM- but where really isn't a better option

The power button is poorly located and when using the full keyboard gets hit.

the stylus should come out the top not the bottom if not fully inserted can fall out.
