Sprint’s HTC Touch Diamond Review

Ibet a lot of you are curious about the Sprint’s soon to be launched HTC Touch Diamond smartphone.  I have managed to found a review about this handset from our folks at the MobileBurn. Well, they seems to like the phone and gave it the rate of recommended. In addition, they also noted a few improvements over the original Touch.  For instance, Sprint has added a larger battery life, by as much as 50%, and upped the anty in the data connectivity department with the addition of an EVDO chip, although they only achieved a 650Kbps download speed at best.  The larger battery resulted in a slightly thicker backing and an increase in weight – 4 grams to be exact – from the original.  Pictures are crisp with the 3.2MP camera, although there’s no flash, and the onboard 4GB of storage will provide ample space for those limited to pics and a small music library.  The interface has been slightly updated on this iteration of the Touch and the Opera browser runs smooth as butter.  The included stylus is pretty much useless since finger control should suffice for most.  Mobile Burn recommends playing with the text input functionality before dropping the cold hard green backs.  Apparently, some may find it a bit too cumbersome for tolerance.

For a complete review hit Mobile Burn.
