HTC Touch "Elf" with TouchFLO- Interface better than iPhone?

[vanilas019]

80 celsius lol !

[d24tdi]

i know this is a vidio from 2007 but now in 2009 windows mobile interface have been changing allot,, a app that i like is spb mobile shell 3.0 - 3.5

[spongj3m3]

although this is very god, the iphone looks and feels so much better

[IspanasOnTop]

plz tell me what was the program in 1 - 2 mins google maps??? and how i can do like u

[hahsVShasp]

please i nead the names os the aplicatons !! or who can i do to found it?

[AtomicMonkeyBomb]

I think these may be better than the iPhone or whatever, but the ones that are, seem far more complicated, like the xperia. iPhone has a lot, but its sorted out so its easy to find. but with these theres all these different menus and stuff. I dunno im just saying the iPhone/iTouch seems easier

[wabajojo]

Say hello to the first three-side-cube!

Thats Windows.... they set up a Cube, that only has got three sides (u can see it in the beginning)

[NJDjetix189]

i have that phone but i didnt noticed that :)

its really someting for micro$oft to do that LOL

[olevando]

guys which is better iphone 3g or htc p3740? i mean overall

i think htc is because its much cheeper an got cool suff

[mcmcww]

At 8:33 into the video you switch to a very nice keyboard. What is it? I want it!

[3halljo]

can u edit the programs in touchflo like id want internet explorer to be opera

[D1Millo19hxc]

yes

[DJScientist1]

What means its "Elf"? Where is difference ?

[dbzsr]

Vauge Version - 400Mhz CPU - NO WIFI - CDMA ONLY

Elf Version - 200Mhz CPU - WIFI - GSM ONLY

other than that they are the same, both are Called HTC Touch.

[DJScientist1]

Thx 4 answer

[54spiritedwill54]

What is the music in the background... I love it

[Fibonacci1122]

Is the music player the default or is that a theme/skin/different player?

[MuSiCiNmYbLoOD713]

does it cost to go on the internet(wifi) for tmobile??

[MarsBarClock]

wifi is wireless network. so no. GPRS (Internet thru cell phone) costs money.

[Fibonacci1122]

I wish the CDMA version had Wi-fi.... it would make it almost perfect

[cocoablini]

get a sidekick. Touch on WinMo sux

[JohnMit90]

does the htc have any games, and can you watch tv on it for sprint ?

[MarsBarClock]

install games nub.

[AziMeX]

People buy the iphone because they are dumb retarded sheep, who will do what the dumb retarded sheep next to them does. I'm only replying to your dumb retarded message because you most probably are only surrounded by dumb retarded people who say dumb retarded things so you don't know any better.

[samerhadionline]

I'm sorry but this product simply is a piece of shit. I have owned it, it is slow as a turtle. If you have your MP3 player working you almost cannot do anything else.

The iPhone is a thousand times faster than this device, and the interface looks way better.

[jabberwolf]

"If you have your MP3 player working you almost cannot do anything else"

The same with the iphone as it can really only run 1 extra application at once. I have an older version of the HTC and can still do a few applications at once WITH the MP3 playing. This only means you must be a mactard bashing on something you've never used before!

[bhatiainc]

it takes a literate user (no offense) to operate this cell phone. iphone is simple to use. TO use a winmo device, you have to have some knowledge about the windows mobile software.

If you know how to do it, you can run tomtom, mp3 on windows media player, and take a call at the same time (with no slow-downs).

[D1Millo19hxc]

i disagree i had gotten the 8125 from att as my first windows mobile phone about two or three years ago i figured out how to use it in five minutes very easy to do

[Dipukas1]

hell yeah man...you said it all. i hate people who try to follow the fads. i bet if the tv said that it was cool to smear shit on your face then guess what, there would be alot of shitfaced people around

[rslawinski33]

U live louisville?

[cglopez67]

Hi, can you tell me what contacts program you are using?... is amazing... Thanks.

[AziMeX]

screw the iphone and this noob with the whipped name, the Nokia Aeon will blow iphone to hell and back, and then send it back there for good. 1.

[conorr6]

except for the fact it just a concept

and if they are going to make it, how can you know the specs, it might be shite

[AziMeX]

iphones are for noobs. I saw like 100s of sheep queing for that overpriced crap. Apple must be laughing how many idiots are getting ripped off...a fool and his money are soon parted...

[shawncarter9520]

if u dislike iphones so much what so bad about them

[laronfox]

People complain about bulk but if i'm going to pay 200 to 500 dollars like iphone users do i want to get what i pay for and not be left with alot of stuff missing no matter is the phone is bulky or not. I don't have a problem doing anything on my AT&T tilt but i bet alot of Iphone goons do. A big launch just to say they finally got 3G which has been out for almost a year now. Come on people wake up!!!

[Paxadzor]

it should have the name touch slow,... it has the highest fucking response time EVER

[tconry55]

how did you get wifi do you have a site ?

[alfredozaher]

wait to see Windows Moblie 7... It will roll over the iPhone's interface. They say it'll include zune built it, ad will use the phone's camera as an accelerometer. Apple watch out! Just google it.

[sebnho]

HTC are so much betta than iphones, iphones r soo slow and cant do anythin

[hen555]

iphones touch is amaazing it has multi touch.

this htc touch is not fast enough. but the processero for sure prolly is better.

[sebogo]

you got to be fool to say that that thing is better than iphone .. i have both and iphone rules

[SLuxem]

Why the hell would you like that interface more than an iPhone's? iPhone kicks HTC Touch ass.

[RionKaneshiro]

Hell what's that? Got this from a dinosaur? You definatlly can drink one or two cups of cafe while waiting for an app to start... who on earth wants something like this?

And by the way, Apple never said they made something new with the iPhone, but something that's just amazing because it's smart and easy to use. Not like that crap there...

I have an iPod Touch and besides it can not phone it's the best device for everything I've ever had!

[yamaha1313]

I hate the windows mobile  LAG !! the iphone doesnt Lag like that

[helimeef]

They didn't even care enough to make any of the elements finger-sized...

[klubhead]

it's all a difference of opinion, i have a touch, i think it's better for business and has a good multimedia side to it.. the iphone IMO is the opposite

[johnmonk66]

and it costs more than iphone

[nagrommie]

touchflo is a cheap knockoff.. the interface is garbage.

[SquireofFire]

uh... touchflo came out before iphone's UI so how is it a knock-off?

[YumeWire]

I like the simple iphone interface better :P

[squalldude]

i know what phone i wont be buying.

[ArieRibbenss]

LOL it sucks. Menu options are to small to tap on and it's terribly slow :D Haha tap an item and you have to wait 5 seconds to open the app.

[jackmakjack]

well at least you can open an App! YOu cant install anything on iPhone! if you will that will be an iBrick :)

[sresy]

iphone betterrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!

[happy5566]

the hardware specs of the iphone is not something to "wow" about,the iphone specs is just like or maybe slightly better than other phones,what is there to wow about is their wonderful operating system

[SquireofFire]

iphone specs r definitely not better than most other phones. most of the technology apple uses on their phone was around in 2002. they just made a gud lookin phone with technology tht already existed lol. they didnt invent anything new they just made their own OS. d 1st to use wat apple call multitouch was present on any neonode phone.

[TuzBoy]

uhm you do know that all phones use technology that is already around right?

second, they did invent a betther UI, which every phone company tries to copy.

but sure, i haveto agree iPhone isnt really THAT revelutionary, but i hope the second gen will be :D

[SquireofFire]

all phones use technology that is around but some get newer and better features (unlike iphone). and who exactly is tryin to copy iphone UI? htc released this phone with touchFLO b4 iphone and neonode released a UI with multi-touch back in 2002. if ur thinkin iphone doesnt copy others ur wrong. iphone is not revolutionary at all. i 2 wud like to c a revolutionary iphone (or a phone from another company) someday. no new and amazing feature has come out for a long time now.

[TuzBoy]

i wasnt talking about the cheap ass HTC Touch flow UI, that is in the HTC touch, i was talking about the HTC Diamond, if you look at it, one of the first thing you think is: wow...! The next thing is: iPhone.

now i do know that iPhone isn't the "god-phone", but they took the idea of a phone, and reinvented it, making it much more friendly to use, and that is what every phone company is trying to copy/make.

second, the iphone is revolutionary.

[TuzBoy]

EDIT: what is it called? TouchFlo or Touch Flow?

anyway it doesn't really matter ^^

[jklitten]

That looks sloooow...

[LumberJack]

every is saying this "item" is better than the iphone when really they want the iphone but got the crappier phone because it was cheaper.

[capnbob66]

Closer but no cigar - not even a used butt. text entry is weak even compared to the iPhone, slow, clunky interface, no multi-touch (lots of stupid menus), a million settings most people care nothing about... keep trying though... Apple needs some competition

[andrewpandji]

This was my phone before I got the iPhone...

But then I got my iPhone.

It totally blew the crap outta my old HTC. It may not have all the HTC Features I use (Mobile Word, Excel etc.) but the UI rocks!!! Also with the built in iPod function, i dont need to bring my 5G iPod around all the time. Plus, the integration with my Mac and iTunes is well worth it..

Well thats my 2 cents about the HTC. It is okay, but no where as near as good as the iPhone.

[jklitten]

You must get a lot of phones...

[lynxdeb]

8 secs to open a calculator?!?

it's too slow.. cannot be compared to the iPhone, the animation are also too slow..

[daphtdazz]

This is a really great illustration of the differences between Apple and most other companies who try to make cool stuff. There is no way that Jobs would have allowed this to come out of his skunkworks because it is just soooo slow and would be so irritating. If you're going to do it, do it properly. Nobody would play on a rip-off PSP if it gamed jerkily, so why should anyone expect anyone else to use an iPhone wannabe that's as slow as this? And the interface is ugly as sin.

[slashjunior2003]

I have to agree with it being slow. I have tried it myself. Just watching this video, how long it takes to open the calculator is proof. A calculator is hardly a processor intensive application is it?! When the SDK comes out fully in June then it is game over for all the other phones.

[shane91c]

Don't blame the phone, that is a third party calculator app which is probably poorly coded. The built in calculator app on my HTC Touch loads instantly.

[HarleyQuinn22]

Tes but the Iphone is truly not a business phone. It is strictly for entertainment purposes. Being a professional such as myself I need a phone that will allow me to connect with an exchange server which the Iphone cannot do. I agree, the Iphone is far superior than any phone for entertainment purposes but thats it. For now I'll continue to use my Touch while listening to my Ipod.

[Pablos102030]

They added exchange support pretty recently

[MIKEYFIZZO]

The Iphone is the best.I had this ELF it is so slow and is no where near the technology of the Iphone

[LambSeed]

I had that phone, it's so incredibly slow it made me want to vomit every time i used it.

[pediashkavar]

i have 2 question please answer me

1-can in zoom in in galley by drawin a circle?

2-what is name of thme horizental keyboard app?

please answer me

[GadgetGirl1995]

i loveeeee the htc touch

[bloodhound777]

it has all the same features as the iphone

[cof6676]

plus more and 3rd party apps

[swapnilrules]

the iphone's pretty damn bad when compared to the htc touch

[bloodhound777]

i got my phone stolen by a bunch of crips so im phoneless

[zgoosekeeper]

i'll keep my iphone, thanks tho.

[doyougotFinkel]

BETTER

BETTER

BETTER

BETTER

BETTER THAN THE iPHONE!!!

That looks like a business phone. My phone is the Helio Ocean because it is more like a friends/internet/gaming phone.

[hesynergy]

Yeah, I was pretty impressed with the Ocean, but I was put off by the proprietary OS....zakly how many proggies are written for it?....hmmmmm unless it's a Linux dirivitive...AND...who's ever heard of the phone company they are offering discounts on the piece with?...what kind of coverage...you must have paid retail..what...$410 bux for it?...too rich for my semi-retired pocketbook.

Hope you enjoy yours!

Chas

[dyane1160]

What is the music in the background... I love it

[lucagavazzi]

hi,

i was wondering if u discovered the song's title.

i've just see this vid and i like the song too

thx

[shaun928]

is that a OKTA? it looks kinda of the same

oktamobile dot com

[elementqka]

iphone is the biggest crappy gadget in the world

[harsox1]

uggly ::S

[PrinceDaHustla]

This phone was before the iphone. apple copied them dumbasses. HTC makes the best phones.

[I0D]

I totally agree. HTC = Best phones. ATT Tilt (HTC TyTn II) is best phone on market i think.

[dre2012]

This os looks grainy and slow. The manufacturer is only as good as its OS, and that i think is where the iphone stands out. The os looks dull, because its running windows 5.0 in the background. There is no way apple "copied" them, apple was developing the iphone 2 years before it was even known to exist. maybe your jealous?

[cof6676]

maybe ur a d-bag?

[hesynergy]

Iphone UI and screen kills pretty much everyone....but what then????...sixteen proggies vs tens of thousands for the palm OS...and lord knows how many for J2RE, and WMx....$600 mp3 player with a phone..Have you hacked it to allow 3rd party apps?...Jobs wanting EVERYTHING to work...so ONLY his stuff will load on it legally...but he's killin himself without an SDK and 3rd party apps...AND....UNLOCKING IT!

[sueside]

Take a key and scrath around the HTC-touchscreen and then on the screen of the iPod/iPhone. Which screen will be left unscratched?

Btw, this HTC loads slow compared to the iPhone and the interface is ugly, the browser just a stopgap.

[laronfox]

iPhone is a total piece of overpriced garbage for newbies only: *no Outlook sync *no turn-by-turn nav (software fix impossible) *no MM *no voice automation (illegal in some states) *no video recording *no cut/paste *no expandable memory (16G is a joke, right?) *no user replaceable battery *outdated 2mp camera & no flash *no radio tuner *outdated bluetooth *no indicator light for push *no modem tethering *no Java or Flash *no haptic feedback

[shawncarter9520]

if the iphone suck so bad why the hell does everybody has 1. if u can answer that question i would believe the iphone suck until then there is no other phone better if they were a phone better it would outsell the iphone u think

[laronfox]

because people went out and bought this phone because of the eye candy it had and they thought it made them look cool. Just like the ipod. If your friend has one oh i got to go out and get one but after a couple of months most people would trade them in unless they got the unlocked version. I'm not saying it totally sucks but its not not all that and its missing alot of stuff. I go download sharware to add to what i got. Iphone people get shareware stuff to get what they don't have.

[NDIDA12]

the iphone is way too over rated thats why it sells. the 3g sucks i have one and everything i try to run a 3rd party app it crashes all the time... and this is from the ITUNES STORE! restored my iPhones severyal times.

[shawncarter9520]

if the iphone is way too over rated. then why the hell did the people that already have an iphone stand in line for hours to get the 3g that dosent make sense 2 me if u dont like thats fine but its the best phone out right now face it dont hate it

[NDIDA12]

how can a phone be the best phone if its glitchy as hell? tell me that?.. ppl are soo stupid to waste soo much money on the phone its self and then waste even more on the plans... you tell me the good in that

[shawncarter9520]

hey dont convince me convince the company to stop making money off of this stupid people u r talking about it has to be something good about it if its the best selling phone answer that u have to beat the best to be the best and so far your arguement is not enough

[D1Millo19hxc]

iphone is not the best selling phone because its only available on att the touch pro (fuze) is because its availble on almost all networks...its only been out for a few months and already has more sales than an iphone....do your research..actually just use common sense no research

[fibee1380]

@NDIDA12 thats y u go 3GS!!! mine never ever crashes, i have 2 full length movies, 50 songs and 128 apps running on a 16GB 3GS, NO PRONS WHATSOEVER!

[koksila23]

omfg ripppp offfffff its a fake iphine omfg with that butten in the bottom fakeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[mstrchew]

i've gotta iphone and i dont really see why this phone is so much better. i guess it all comes down to preference

[marcovit]

agree.. its jsut what u like better in style/pref ^^

[MusicMan009]

thats not even beter than the "touch"

[willdolla]

definately gonna get this phone on nov 2 with my sero plan this will b awesome.

[lupitarock]

but iphone don't have nothing..just touchflo qnd htc have things a lot

[zeba5]

touchflo is good, htc touch sucks. Lacks of speed, memory, etc. HTC Kaiser ftw

[KidNovak]

Yes, the Stock HTC Touch is slow, but using a program such as BatteryStatusExt to Overclock, it runs very good.

[lupitarock]

verry better Windows Mobile 6.0 and TouchFLO...

iPhone is a suck...

iPhone = Ipod touch with camera suck and phone

htc touch is PC + Phone.

[halomaster1218]

this is not better than the iphone

[considergreatdoings]

you're right!
