1. HTC touch diamond is the best...

2 Oct 2009 by Qais Ali

96.7%9.7out of 10

I had the HTC diamond for more than a month and until now i am loving it   MORE as i am having everything done just by sliding my finger on the screen ... moreover it is 3D touch flo which gives you a better feeling while using the phone...

BUT the most important problem i faced with this phone was its lagging while sailing through the phone which made me upset.... but when i UPDATED the ROM from version 1.53 which comes with the phone to 2.03 it was a totally new phone with NO lag at all ...

one of the reasons i picked this phone not the iphone is that i am medical student and i need some 3rd party programs that works only on the windows mobile ... and i don't want to hold a large phone with me to the hospital ... so the diamond was my choice ...
 
in conclusion ... if you are buying a slim nice windows mobile phone with the best performance ... buy the HTC touch diamond and feel unique ....

I got my Diamond in January and I have loved it. It has a pretty good camera, wonderful web browser in Opera, and Good youtube app. I really like this phone because it runs on windows which means you can put just about anything on here. I would reccomend this phone to anyone. The one tip I do have is when you get one download skyfire so you can watch videos online.

3. htc touch diamond

60%6out of 10

the worst phone i have ever had.  i would prefer my old samsung hue over the diamond. it freezes 5 times a day on average, it is slow (like an old computer with low memory), and the stylus is almost necessary because the screen is so small.


on top of that, when i go into the alltel store to get it looked at, they say its broken, make me pay $100 for a new one, and the process starts over again.


i do not recommend this phone to anyone

This phone is my first smartphone although I had a chance to play with Iphone a lot since my brother has it.


To be honest, I'm more dissapointed than I am satisfied.


The worst thing about this phone is the battery I think. Without changing any settings, the battery lasted less than 10 hours which dissapointed me so much.


Another thing is the speaker. The speaker is quite crappy, the sound quality is bad and the volume is low too.


Lastly, you should be aware that this phone does not have an external hard drive and at the sametime, the internal hard drive is only 4GB.


If you are thinking of buying this phone, I suggest you get an iphone. I bought this phone over iphone because of the interface, size, the camera and that so many people have iphones but I think it still doesn't beat the iphone in terms of features, large screen, and etc.


P.S. if you guy know any websites where I can download bunch of mods, features, games, and etc please post it up :)





-the auto focus camera (I like the quality of it) but no flash
-screen resolution
-interface
-design of the phone
-mp3 player (the sound quality is good)
-battery life
-more languages (there is only english in mine)
-screen size (not so small but when compared to Iphone, it is smaller)
-touchflo response (I think iphone's touch response is faster)
-games (I don't know where to download games free like iphone)
-battery case (attracts finger prints much)
-no external storage and internal storage is only 4GB
-the buttons are kind of hard to press when holding with one hand
-no 3.5mm headphone jack
-no recording conversation system

7. Diamond Review

29 Sep 2008 by Happy HTC diamond User

90%9out of 10

got my phone last month and i can say, this is the best PDA for me in my life... wouldnt want to think of selling off or getting a new one... for me is the features in the phone that plays the major fact.


for me.. a built in 4GB memory is way cool for me.. i've stored almost my entire my document folder from my pc into this phone via activesync...


this phone come without a GPS software but you can get some software such like garmin or mapking2007... im using the mapking and it works great with the gps of this phone...


for sound, i totally agree with the 1st person who review this phone. this phone's sound quality is really low. so dont expect too much from this phone. but you may also tweak abit with 3rd party software.


for the touchflo3D... this is the main reason why i choose this phone... because this GUI is way too cool for me... everything can be used with my finger... typing scrolling zooming almost everything... i love this features so much, but alot user complain of the slowness of this... but it was solved with some tweak too... =)


so far the only (-) things for this phone is that it doesnt support any chinese language at all... but thanks to the HTC SEA... they finally compile a chinese input support for this phone... Thumb up for HTC SEA!! XD... well if you get this phone originally, they also included a original chinese input support software for you, but is a bundle version... but i wouldnt want to waste a single sotrage space for this software when i can get a chinese input support plugin from the HTC SEA at 45KB... =P...


for the battery life... i have no problem with it... because i dont use the Wifi and 3G all the time(due to malaysia's poor 3G signal) haha...





touchflo3D is cool
3.2mp pixel
4GB internal storage
GPS ready
no chinese input support
sound quality

8. HTC touch diamond - for all your needs

29 Jun 2008 by Pavel Petrov

86%8.6out of 10

I bought the phone and spent the first few days exploring it.Now, a week later i am not dissapointed from it.
Here goes my opinion :
It has everything that a PDA phone should have.
Menus - Very easy to use.At the beginning they look a bit complicated, but after you work for a while, they become very easy.
Software - The new windows mobile 6.1 works great, the only thing i coudn't run was Skype, but i guess they will make a new version that will work.Also Microsoft Office works good.E-Mail client works good aswell.
GPS - ok here is the big (-) of this phone, it comes without a GPS software so you have to buy one and install it.After this, GPS works fine too.
Wi-Fi - I tested it with a lot of networks, and it worked perfect with all but one (laptop finds it/phone doesn't) but i am not shure the problem is in the phone.
Camera - I personally like the camera, but i never expect too much from a mobile phone camera.
Web browsing - the integrated Opera browser works a way better than Internet Explororer.I use it to browse the web a lot, and so far it works without any problem.
Sound - if you expect this phone to be a Hi-Fi stereo... it's not.The sound isn't very loud....so you probably won't hear it ringing if the phone isn't in the same room.
Touch screen - never had problems with it, actually if your fingers aren't very big you won't need to use the pen much.
Battery - When you use the GPS / Wi-Fi it goes down a way faster than Stand by/talk mode.But i can't say it's a bad battery... after all phone weight is 110g.....
So far i managed to crash it only 2 times (but after a restart everything was back to normal :) ).
This are the things in HTC Touch Diamond that i can call "different" than the other PDA phones i had, i didn't described a lot of the futures but i think they work the same way as they do on other brands/models.
