[blackopszeus]

u know u can boot it to android and isnt there a camera on the front

[patriksdz]

Its better than Nokia 5530 Xpressmusic?



[sooda91]

I had this phone now in 3 year. I will go to HTC Desire HD now, but i would say that this phone is really good! And i can say that cuz i had it in 3 years so i have been experinced all things on it.

[TheBravelion2]

is this better or sonyericsson xperia x1?

[pure382]

accelerommetter?

[gabrielondeck]

[harpreetakjsingh]

[BloodxRipz]

[harpreetakjsingh]

@BloodxRipz yes

[abdul123r]

[ahmedheshamcena]

[Jesssunlim33]

how do u move "my documents" to the sd card?

[ganzos25]

You can zoom in by doing a clock ways motion on the screen too

[HColin035]

can you use a head phone for music?

[Kylethearsonist]

does it have a full keyboard or 3x4 for txting?

[jasonisroxursox]

@Kylethearsonist it has full querty, 3x4 (phone keypad) and suretype keyboard, like a blackberry.

[andtheworldreturned]

the vodafone version has an other rom. i guess it's because this is an old original htc rom and i have a newer one, so it's faster than this old one

[TheOne272]

I have this phone. its looks and features are good but browsing is slow.

[andtheworldreturned]

i got this phone a week ago and i just love it. i don't know why, but my version (vodafone branding) seems a lot faster than the one in the video, it's actually really fast, i was surprised cause in these videos it always seemed a bit slow

[Synthasism]

could yours actually be faster beccause is on vodafone ?

[abdulasipodtouchhelp]

isnt it a bit slow??

[beersaklart]

Is this a phone you recommend?

[MophiesZ]

this phone has the coolest design ever!

[Hassan8713]

I like this phone becz it's so lovely and soft but hard to use...

[manning6680]

Interpol!

[MrRoccobarocco]

i have the phone its not a bad phone ..u jst hv to get used to it

[siomaslt]

i just love this phone i dont have it but it's so lovely

[lenzer47]

Phone sucks, don't buy it folks, you'll be sorry

[ramisrour92]

damn u have an annoying voice -.-

[kwala97]

i had the same problem with my htc s711 bout the album art not showing have u tried syncing it directly with windows media?? that worked 4 me

[TheRajab1997]

such a copy from the iphone and ipod touch

[GuildForbidden]

Are you kidding? Anything with a touch screen would be a copy to you. They're not even close to the same.

[solomidplz]

Those who say the phone is slow should think a little, this video was posted 1 year ago when the phone was almost released (I guess this is a pre-release device he's reviewing) so the software was buggy and unstable. But now, 1 year later it's really stable and works flawlessly.

[MotherOf666]

really? so it's safe to buy this now? i mean, is it fast now and no problems at all?

[solomidplz]

Can't guarantee "no problems at all", but the software is STABLE.

[MotherOf666]

hey, mind telling me about its speed and its overall,and compared to the diamond2? im just planning to get the touch diamond coz of it's looks..haha

[permanetmarker2004]

can anyone please tell me if this phone has internet modem sharing??

[LatinoBoii94]

wi-fi?yea it does.

[22969007]

would someone please tell me how to change the language on this phone to english?? obviously because it is in another language it is hard to pick up whats what...

[hockeyhunn]

does the htc touch diamond have a sliding keyboard or no?

[Brainlab11]

no it doesn't have physical keyboard

[wimmywazzle]

I think the reason you cant do the slidey thing on music is because you haven't got any cover flow,, i used to have this but i sold it for a £100 lol

[witenight18]

i was going to get the instinct s30 but im gonna get this insted

[socialenemy2007]

jesus why do they never show the fucking keyboard first. who gives a fuck about the photo viewer?

[Anni619]

its waaaay better then iphone, i dont know why ppl like the iphone anyway, its too biig and ugly lool

[jonisen96]

agree:D

[laughaholic987]

does this have wifi?

[stelispav]

YES

[laughaholic987]

do you know how much it is?

[siipan]

Yes it does.

[forresttmcarthur]

it seems really gay. i had the original touch and it was absolutely GREAT

[cutiebabe12346]

Hey

I have this phone, and i quite like it

but i have one problem

i get heaps of text messages, but for some reason the phone only keeps the latest 25 messages. is it supposed to be like that? is there a way that i can make it keep all of my messages, not just 25???

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!

[sprse]

@cutiebabe12346 Just tap on the screen, it will open all of your sms converstaion. You can store over few thousand sms.

[theotherbull]

is this phone better than the htc dream??

[adam22oflasvegas]

can u take the big clock of the main screen

[Fajlix]

Looks a but laggy/not fast.

[gameivo]

it's on windows what do you want :D

[Sheldonwh]

Yeah, if you had something by Apple, you'd have the pleasure of being forced to buy a whole new phone when your battery dies. Plus, you'd be offered a million apps (for a price, of course) that make you the most popular guy in homeroom (since you're probably a kid, and not a businessman), not to mention being forced to use the same alert tones for everything on the freakin' phone. Good thing you're not using Windows, eh? Don't wanna miss out or be original. Best to do what your friends do.

[stevee492]

they have fixed it in their newest update.

[sasha01234]

is windows live messenger free with this phone or do you need a data plan..reply asap please!

[hotlock50]

is there much of a delay when you scroll?

[AKON343]

the touch sencing is kind of delayed

[acnex]

Yeah I think its because the program is loading. I think if they showed like a loading screen you won't notice this feeling of delay. For instance, the iphone shows a white screen when you go to calendar and after like 2 or 3 seconds it would be fully loaded.

[IdiotAllergies]

um.. i want to get this phone.. But is it worth it spending all the extra money on getting an internet plan with your plan?

[shumaka11]

WOW Honckong 80 degrees :D

[maggot75455]

i realy need your help how do you put music in it

[xBlackWolf90]

@ maggot75455:

Connect the phone to your PC, and choose 'Disk Drive' on the device's screen.

You can then see the handset as a removable device under 'My Computer' in Windows Explorer.

Just drag and drop (or copy and paste) your music files across and you're done.

[Rhythum150]

Does it work for ALL Htc touchphones?

[Jazza159]

is it a phone worth buying

[sprse]

Yes, great device. Its much better than i ever thought. Specially the ms. office aps, use word, powerpoint etc every day. It has wifi, sensor, gps all u need. Most incredible is display. Dont say iphone has better one. This phone has over 12k pixels, can display whole web page and its readible. Uv never seen anything like that before. Trust me. Easy to use as well. Only - is the camera, it gut only on day light, at dark it useless

[drvrprmt]

how did you get microsoft office on it?

[P3kko]

its already installed.

[afg99061]

this is able to connect to my home internet through my wireless router right? can you add free games to it like the iphone or do you have to pay for all applications and games?

[beeguy27]

it seems like it lags when you scroll on the screen

[hlibetaze]

can i sync music from my zune software onto my phone?

[microwave103]

I'm not sure if I should get this or the iPhone. I don't like that the iPhone won't allow me to open word files and edit them, I think Diamond can? And a negative for the iPhone is lack of a compatible bluetooth keyboard (which I see comes out March, but I'm in PR so that may be diff for me), while I found one that's compatible w/ the diamond. I like the idea that the diamond can work as a tiny laptop.

[msgmejonasbrothers]

u just got this phoen today ! its pretty good and muchhhhhhhh less heavier and bigger than the iphone ! get this one

[21lamar21]

feel sory for the people who just got the diamond and the pro.....part of both models are being released at the end of may in the U.S. and nxt month for europe.

[ipodforumcom]

more on Touch Diamond

w w w. AllTouchDiamond. com

[TurtleHaze]

the iphone is better.

but this one is also awesome!

[aaa965]

that is awsome i love that phone

[RosaRaymii101]

I have the Sidekick 2008 and its a great phone..but im jelous of the HTC =P

I wish I had a touchscreen :(

[itsELItrick]

no you really dont...that is if you like to text.

[TobyGRcks]

can u get hotmail on it?

[evilhugbear]

of course

[shikki1985]

Yours doesnt have wifi, so this one is better bro. The only good think about your cellphone is thte cam.

[Bookserz]

dude this guy fucking sucks

he is so slow

[nqk1]

I have this phone and its really awesome...Every mobile or smartphone have advantages and disadvantages.. The main thing is wht is ur need..

[ryanppax]

how responsive/accurate is the touch screen

[ald3n3]

this phone is slow

[corey555slipknot666]

yes it is :/

[3halljo]

hey is the touchscreen fast and responsive and does it have earphone slot

[saintsajid]

Its a cool phone but i would suggest the sony ericsson xperia x1 :)

[GreenBot08]

for $800?

sure, if u buy it for me. :-P

[iOtaku94]

looks pretty cool but it doesn't look like it responds very quickly to the touch commands. :\ very nice and quick accelerometer though. :) actually the accelerometer on this thing might be better than the one on my iPhone 3G.

[vegamarco4]

are this available in the US

[player510]

I think so, i saw this a the cingular att store

[omgomg855]

is the internet free? i know on most phones it is not

[Pow3rbull]

depends on your network, if you pay a monthly fee for internet on your mobile yes it costs money, but through wifi (at home or an open network) its completely free, though you'll have to pay for hotspots.

[youngstunna94]

ironic how he keeps flipping on the other vid but not once on this on exD, and does it have a earphone jack?

[tsetta26]

hey can it send pictures through text messages

[GeorgiLucas]

cool ! i want one too !!! how much ????

[OhhFCKbabiee]

Is there an earphones slot?

I am thinking of getting this cellphone..

Can you tell me if it works good in general like is it worth it?

[sakariadhaval]

hey dude, yea there is an earphone slot and even earphones comes with this cell. :)

[Neelu0715194759]

dis better than iphone

[MWoody92]

has it got WiFi?

[440txi]

yes, with 3g aswell

[bbraym46]

is the sound of the phone hard????

[BillionaireBwoizClub]

this is slow compared with the iPhone..

[bilox2000]

NIIIICE

[virash]

does it have games ;P

[xxxSorayaa]

I'm womdering if you can change the colour of the display/menu with settings, to make it pink of something, or will it always be black and green?

[CallMeDaddyHoe]

Yup u can change it. Mine's pink.

[RockysHouse]

could somebody tell me how to send vids/pics w/ bluetooth on this phone?

[tesroz]

If i wouldnt have iPhone i would definitly buy this phone...i wish i could sell my iphone but i cant...i loveee this phone!I like it more than the iphone cause the iphone doesnt have video recorder...bluetooth...and some other features that this phone has!...and i really need those things!=( guess ill just have to wait for the new htc product to come and ill bnuy that product definitly!

[midnightshadevsr]

Lookout for the Google Android. thats my only product that may be the next BIG THING.

[toxiclow]

Dude i know exactly how u feel cuz i have the same problem i have the 16gig one and i;m starting to get bored woth i mean the novelty is starting to wear off here and i want to sell it in order to get an HTC or the new SE Xperia-1

[tesroz]

Yea:S im so bored of it...but my father bought it for me...six moths ago...and i think he wouldt be so happy if i would just sell it...so ill wait for the next htc...i loved iphone but ...i hate it now...im soo angry cause i didnt wait for the diamond:S

[midnightshadevsr]

the Touch Diamond owns the iphone not only because it looks better, it is what a real touch phone is SUPPOSED to be and it takes the touch phones to a whole new level

TOUCH DIAMOND FTW

[midnightshadevsr]

i really don't know whats pathetic, the Iphone or the pplsz that made the iphone or the pplsz protecting their investments on a p.o.s phone that simply can't do anything a real"smartphone" can do and on top of that, the constumer satisfaction SUCKS. i mean NOW IS IT THAT YOU HAVE TO REPLACE A PHONE BY FORKING 200-300 dollars, its LIKE BUYING ANOTHER DAMN IPHONE. get bent iphone lovers, all ya'll doing is talking shit and feeling good about yaself. no facts, jus meaningless opinions.

[midnightshadevsr]

i really don't know whats pathetic, the Iphone or the pplsz that made the iphone or the pplsz protecting their investments on a p.o.s phone that simply can't do anything a real"smartphone" can do and on top of that, the customer satisfaction SUCKS. i mean HOW IS IT THAT YOU HAVE TO REPLACE A PHONE BY FORKING 200-300 dollars, its LIKE BUYING ANOTHER DAMN IPHONE. get bent iphone lovers, all ya'll doing is talking shit and feeling good about yaself. no facts, jus meaningless opinions.

[midnightshadevsr]

I feel sooo sorry for ya'll Iphone/apple fanboys and fangirls. all i gotta say is take GOOOD CARE of the phone because if you tend to fuck that p.o.s up, heh heh heh, fork out 200-300 cash jus to replace yaself for a new one. with the HTC Diamond you don't need to pay, jus to replace it, jus send it back to the company and then they'll refurbish you another 1 free of charge. yes key word, FREE OF CHARGE. a 700-800 phone that can be replaced FREE OF CHARGE unlike that p.o.s.

[ITR0952]

[ADogWhit]

phone comes out on sprint september 2 cant wait to get it

[Johnp1212]

he said tmobile so im thinking its from tmobile

[nyartist8395]

must EVERY smarthphone be compared to the iPhone. if you ask me it has TOO many missing features that are overlooked because of its touchscreen. no video recording? no MMS? no flash support? come on apple! and i bet some apple fan boy will respond with iPhone rules! or fuck you! yeah get a life.

[akurim1234]

Kick iphone's butt i think.

[jorgeeferreira]

I had an IPhone and sold it..too big..it is like a brick...I then bought an HTC diamond...that is what I call a phone...Thank you HTC...Good bye apple...

If HTC had the same marketing team as Apple the HTC would sell millions and the iphone wouldnt sell

[potblack2win]

HTC have released an update go to their site sign up with HTC club.

Much faster

[costescuandrei1975]

it's just an iPhone clone... I just said something wrong it's not even near the iPhone.

[shukaku]

This is a very nice phone. This thread seems to be full of mostly smart people. By this I mean no Iphone fanboy has come and said something ignorant and has gotten pwned yet. HtC has done it with this phone.

[khoihq]

its weakness is its battery life...if the battery is improved for just another 1 hour...this phone would have been a must get alternative to the over-hyped iphone

[StevieRawks]

It seems laggy cuz either it's a beta version.. an early release in another country, or could be because it has sexy images to load and display? =]. iphone definately lags if you open a pic or video. Mine did. Btw; This is true sexiness. And everyone saying this is a rip off an iphone, or omg iphone is better.. Learn. Apple's just power hungry and were lazy asses. They were like.. omg we sold an mp3 player for hundreds now lets add a phone function! WOO lol

[clarrypaul]

It seems laggy

[JAFrk]

at :53, if you read the message, it says verizon. I know its comming out on Verizon, but whats the actual release date?

[GWD1983]

Iphone lacks functionality, it's a nice gadget but if you want to use it for actual business purposes like what the HTC is used for. The HTC is much better, the Iphone is just a fancy MP3 player that calls too. Kinda kiddyish :)

[pookiewood]

I agree except for kiddyish.

[znuggle]

Average review... Though, you sound like you wanna kill yourself. Your voice is so monotome.

[DarkAvenger993]

ciccio bello iphone regna! htc diamond è solo un'imitazione! / iphone rulez! htc diamond is only an imitation!

[lukespringate]

God, as much as I'm open to new technology, I cant seem to want anything else except an iPhone, This seems cool, its just so SLOW!! The thing is aswell is that I dont want an iPhone, because everyone has got one! But, the iPhone just seems like the best thing out there!

[W0283135]

Plz don't get the iPhone! The stupid thing does not even send picture messages. I mean come on even a razor can do that.

[DjMan0sh]

The gatorade acid thing is strong!!!

[cocatoo555]

Nice phone...My dad ist getting it too. ;)

[GoinDown6]

lol my dad is getting the phone.

[adrianlov]

Oh my god it's so fucking slow! If it wasn't five secs behind all the time and could sync with itunes instead of windows media player I would buy this instead of the iphone..

[aartyo]

yes it is very slow and the speakers are bad too.. and the anthene is not working wel

[deadxkorps]

Do you have a problem with the phonem "th" ?

Is it too complicated for you to type or do you really speak like that? What makes you think people will take seriously someone who talks like that?

[aartyo]

i think i made a BIG mistake to but this fhone

FUCK..

[deadxkorps]

to but this fhone?

yeah, really, fuck.

[aartyo]

DEADXKORPS...

what is your problem you french dickhead

most of the people don't even speek english in that country of yours

so shut the fuck up and get a life

and its.. whats makes you think THAT people will take YOU seriously

now who talks like that?

[deadxkorps]

Well, I may be French but at least I can speak and SPELL English (as well as read Shakespeare, but let's not get carried away). And of course I'm also completely fluent in French

You on the other hand cannot even speak your mother tongue properly, so honestly, go back to the cave you came from and learn your own language instead of insulting people on Youtube.

[aartyo]

I didn't start wiht the insults YOU DID so don't give me your fucking crap, and no you cant spell also just read your first comment. haha i have to learn my onw language , wel let me tel you this, there is a big difference among DUTCH AND ENGLISH

later bonehead .

write what whatever you like to write cuz i wil not reply back

[DahjOkA]

I have NO clue whats going on but from what I can see, aartyo is pretty immature

[TokyoYuri]

1. Shakespeare isn't hard to read. English is also my second language, and I can understand Shakespeare. Don't use that as a sign of your so-called intelligence.

2. Just because someone cannot spell properly, it does not mean they're stupid. I cannot read or write Japanese well (My native language), yet I speak English,French, Japanese, and Korean, and I also am about 3 years ahead of most in mathematics and science.

So fuck off.

[durphy]

Well learn Japanese, smart ass. Stop being such a know-it-all.

[BigMeat93]

Nicely Done

[mitchyul]

Apple users feel thy have to bad mouth anything that competes with an Apple product. Grow up! There is alot more out there than just an iphone or ipod.

[Joeeeman]

nothing can compete with the iPhone.

[midnightshadevsr]

i wonder what makes you say that.

[W0283135]

Ha anything can! The stupid thing does not even send picture messages! Even an old school razor can send pics and videos!

[fugbot4560]

can u get sprint service for this yet

[minisnake666]

what about gps? didnt review that!

[lactose0]

Just one question, does this have a headphone port or any kind to listen to the mp3 player on it atall?

[BludClutGangsta]

cant beat iphones touch screen though

its so responsive and highly sensitive

apple are just so high in technology beats anything really

[ramsuz]

Apple is 20% innovation, 80% pretentions

[Carlos10G]

do not be jealus if you cannot buy an iphone...

[ramsuz]

Isn't the iPhone and the HTC in the same price class??

[ramsuz]

One more of those "I'm rich, and I guess ur just jealos because u can't afford the things I can. No, I don't guess it, I hope it because that's the only thing that can boost my self esteem right now." - kind of comment

[Carlos10G]

yes , they are but , the iphone is pure innovation , and the diamond is an extremely good phone, but the iphone wins talking about innovation.

[madridxaz]

iphone is like $500 and this HTC is like $700

[sickofstudio]

lol, iPhone sucks anyway... if he cant afford it its great, its not worth it x)

htc is much better lol

[swanagemiddle]

Its like Taiwan take on America really. Which would win?

.......

EXACTLY!

The point is, would you rather trush a Taiwanese brand instead of an American?

[sickofstudio]

Who give a damn if the brand is from taiwan or fucking american?

if the fucking "thing" is better i dont fucking care!

iPhone is supposed to be a fucking phone, and its not compitable woith MMS? lol!

and the deal you make with apple when you buy it sucks!

[swanagemiddle]

Once you have the money to buy one youll see! lol!

oh no! you cant because you dont have any money! lol!

most iphone haters havent got money to buy one!

[sickofstudio]

of course i got one lol... i waited outside the fucking store for 3 hours to get one, and it wasnt worth it!

[swanagemiddle]

Yeah right! hahahaha liar liar pants on fire!

[sickofstudio]

Yeah, i sold it anyway, and i bought a HTC Touch PRO... 10 times better
