Mr. News Blog Review: HTC Diamond

HTC Diamond is a dream come true for the people who enjoy having the luxury of world in their fist. As already announced it is the successor of HTC TOUCH Pro. High Tech Computer Corporation (HTC) is in the process of building up a family of Touch products, of which the HTC Touch Diamond is the fourth and newest member. It has brought a completely new picture of 3G phones with its extraordinary functions. More simply we can say it has the ability to understand what you want from your phone and execute your wishes spontaneously.

Moving ahead with its features, the first thing worth mentioning is its looks because as the saying goes “you believe what you see”. According to Horace Luke (Chief Innovator Officer) of HTC this one is the slimmest and sleekest phone they have design till today. To this we say great success, HTC Diamond’s 2.8-inch touch screen housed within a stunning formation of brushed steel and flawless faceted edges has made it as beautiful to behold as it is to use. Moreover 480×640 pixels, which is 4 times the pixels of most phones, and 65k-color VGA TFT display makes the visibility lucid as never before.

Then comes the most important part that a phone offers to its user; what good is a phone with all its features if the user faces difficulty to use it. Well to get rid of this problem Microsoft and HTC worked hand in hand to build the most user friendly OS for phones. HTC Diamond comes with Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional OS which provides the phone’s functions a proper interface.

Moving on to the input facilities HTC Diamond is the first of its kind to feature TouchFLO 3D - a new version of the TouchFLO interface, unique to the Touch family. This technology brought contacts, favorite music, videos and photo play and launch functions at the fingertips. Unlike similar devices, HTC opted for resistive technology for the touchscreen rather than capacitive. However, the buttons beneath the screen, as well as being pressable buttons, have capacitive touch sensitivity. This feature is used by the camera application to auto-focus the camera as a finger approaches to press the button that will take a picture.

The awesome camera that the phone features would make the user forget about the digital camera lying somewhere on their desk. A 3.2 megapixel auto-focus camera will help you capture the perfect moment in style and with a massive 4GB of internal storage you can keep all the files you need.

The credit for the phones speed goes to its 528 MHz (Qualcomm MSM7201A) CPU and 256 MB internal flash memory, 192 MB RAM with massive 4GB internal storage which enables the user to save all important and not so important files.

Yet again the phone proves its brilliance with its HSDPA technology which confers the connectivity speed of 7.2Mbps (broadband-like speed) and as well as HSUPA wireless connectivity.

The integrated ultra-sensitive GPS will helps to find destination as quickly and efficiently as a dedicated satellite navigation unit.
