the texting is almost impossible on that device if you try to use your fingers...i found myself having to use the stylus and even still its slow and slippery...plus its expensive...i took it back and got the htc hero which is cheaper and does more things and has a wider screen better for texting
I've had this phone for 4 months now, and I STRONGLY do not recommend you to buy this phone. Great feature list, beautiful resolution, BUT it is not a good phone. The phone is VERY buggy, VERY slow and laggy, and generally not very reliable. It's not finger friendly, so if you get it be prepared to use the stylus a lot if you don't want mistakes on your texts.
Bottom line: if you're picky and need your phone to work reliably, do not buy this phone.
yea i agree with nickhatesfl386 you guys are arguing over a fucking phone for christ sake . there are two phones touch pro and touch diamond . the pro has qwerty keyboard and the diamond is touch screen qwerty keyboard
i was looking at the sony x1, and after seeing very disappointing reviews, this phone kept on popping up. in march i am going to get this on the uk network "orange". this phone looks great, and the look of the phone itself has grown on me alot, though at first, i thought it looked a bit dull. if anyone has this phone, what is the "qwerty" slide out keypad like to use? thanks in advance
next time don't call someone an idiot for making a little mistake ok. all that does is make others look like crap, instead of putting them them, be helpful. it's not needed
Yea people can be rude...No worries. This is the touch diamond which you text with the touchscreen. The one that has the keyboard slide is the touch diamond pro.
o sry, u r a gewd speler bi tha wey...oh and youre fucking retarded, they are two different phones, the diamond and the pro so "get ur facts strate"...fucking moron
ya u shit head i was correcting the guy he sed there was a phone called a htc touch diamond pro i j8ust sed there is a htc touch diamond and htc touch pro u retard look at the comments and mabe ull find out if ur smart enough
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i swear to fucking god, talking to you is like talking to a retard. he said "this is the touch diamond which you text with the touchscreen. The one that has the keyboard slide is the touch diamond pro" and your tiny little brain came up with the comment "actually only called htc touch not diamond" THEY ARE TWO DIFFERENT PHONES...HOLY MOTHER OF FUCK CAN YOU READ
I would really like to ask a question, Could either one of you survive and live your lives without argueing over names of PHONES, i'd understand if someone was misundersanding std's or something.
Great Review, i have the HTC Touch phone from sprint and i have gone threw 4 phone in the last 7 month, and im thinking about getting a new phone and it will probaly be this one thanks.
I got one to replace my phone and antique ipaq. Overall I am very happy with it. Noah missed a few zooming tricks and didn't really show the 3D touchflo's full capability. The accelerometer does work but it is slow on websites with a lot of content (like the phonedog site). I love the GPS navigation. Some people may not like that you can't text or type in landscape but then there's always the touch-pro coming out soon. No SD slot is a bit of a drag but it does have 4 gig internal.
oh man this phone is amazing especially the wi-fi capabilitys which means free web! and texting will be faster. the only problem is i have to wait til march for my upgrade.
Will Sprint's CDMA version come with Opera Mobile 9.5 with Flash? I seen it on the GSM one, but if I buy one now will it come with the new Opera browser.

I would get the HTC Touch Diamond if Sprint hadn't ruined it. First off, they changed the back and made it ugly and red. I don't care if they made the battery stronger, I could just carry a spare battery and have the beautiful faceted black back. They also ruined the TouchFlo3D. It looks beautiful on the unlocked version but Sprint changed it. They put a bunch of neon colors and changed the look of the whole interface.
I love when you double tap to zoom out and it doesn't work... I jist think your "Hello" is hilarious. And yeah GREAT accelerometer....works really well !
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
pretty much anything without a slide out qwerty is wack.. then the browser is wack
there is no terminal server remote access capability the screen is too small and .. what the fuch is acelerometer.. cause it obviously didnt work .. memery problem maybe?... and you ant dial quickly on touch screens... for instance inputing a creditcard number ... WACK..IMO
lol halfway i got distracted with something then i went back to the video and for like 3 minutes i forgot this was even a phone, this is how far cellphone has advanced. I remember 12 years ago, people were still using pagers and cellphones itself was an amazing piece of tech. Now everyone has a cellphone that comes in all shape and sizes.
honestly sprint killed my hopes for this phone. I just hope t-mobile get the pro later this year and have it look like the way it should but just increase it in a good way.
you need to compare this phone to the sprint instinct.I know there completely different phones but compare the internet,touch screen,and the features and see if they make a router app like that for the instinct.
Does it have a slot for a Micro SD card?
