HTC Touch Diamond, Another IPhone Killer In The Row



HTC very recently unveiled the HTC Touch Diamond, a compact touch screen smartphone that is smaller than its chief rival, Apple iPhone, and beats the iPhone to the 3G network. The device measuring 102 mm by 51 mm by 11.33 mm and weighing in at 110 g is smaller than the iPhone.

This Smartphone, supporting HTC’s 3G broadband-like networks, includes features that focus on Web browsing and checking e-mail. The Touch Diamond runs on Microsoft's Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional and offers a 2.8” LCD touch screen with backlight, a 240 x 320 dots resolution with 65,536 colors and a 3.2 mega-pixel camera with video calling.

It uses Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g for wireless Internet access and features Bluetooth access as well. For storage, the Touch Diamond features 4 GB internal, 256 MB flash and 192 MB RAM. Along with all of those features, the Touch Diamond offers GPS, up to 4 hours of talk time and up to 300 hours of standby time, or 100 hours of standby with push email activated.

The Touch Diamond also offers a new 3D touch interface called TouchFLO 3D. The interface can be spun by swiping a finger right or left across the display, providing efficient access to the features consumers use most. TouchFLO also enhances finger touch scrolling and browsing of Web pages, documents, messages and contact lists.

Talking on this launch Peter Chou, CEO and President HTC, said “the Touch Diamond will make browsing the Web and using Web-enabled applications on a mobile device as practical and easy as making a phone call. Today we mark a new era in mobile phone evolution, an era where beauty and size integrate with uncompromising innovation at broadband speeds."

HTC plans to offer the Touch Diamond through all major European carriers in June, and later this quarter in Asia and the Middle East. The device is scheduled to ship in North America and Latin America in the second half of the year.
