Hands on a HTC Touch PRO - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Find the video and images here.
Looks neat... unfortunately the battery has been removed and therefore you can only see the hardware.
Apparently the back is not as glossy as with the Touch Diamond. Definitely a tribute for addressing business people...

Yep... very hard indeed

There is also a new review here and a "real life" comparison between Diamond and raphael here.
P.S.: It's really time to get our own subforum for the HTC Touch Pro / Raphael.

The wait is killing me....

Never sure before i have it in my hand
But the reseller is positive about the date thou.

By the way:
In this review following is mentioned:
[...] we were told that the Touch Pro will feature far better support for landscape display orientation [...]
This means that the TFL3D for Touch Pro has some differences compared to the Diamond I guess.

No way!

Grrr. I wish HTC hadn't come up with this thing and just left it at the Diamond. Makes my life so hard.
On the one hand, it has slightly better stats. Little more RAM/ROM... but... I'm coming from a 64MB RAM device anyway and it looks like custom ROMs are on the way to giving us more than enough free RAM on the Diamond.
There's the 50% bigger battery... but... there'll be bigger batteries for the Diamond, and more and more power issues are being resolved each day.
There's the keyboard which looks tons better than on my Hermes... but... I barely use it more than 5 mins a day, and I'm sick of such a fat device and the Diamond is oh so slim and sexy. But then, even the Pro is slimmer than my Hermes.
The camera has a flash... but... it's not a proper flash anyway and I don't take a great deal of photos where it would help anyway.
There's the useful MicroSD slot... but... I barely use all of the 1GB card in my Hermes.
It's coming later than the Compact IV... but... not so much later that it wouldn't be worth waiting for.
It's just not fair, too many choices!
EDIT: And now it looks like it might be coming about the same time the Compact IV is released? AARRGHH!!

VIDEO Out??
Damn, is this an extra convertor which we will be able to use on the Diamond Touch also??
or only for Touch Pro?

Touch Pro only I believe.

well, folks. support for "HTC video out" is present in the registry if you look. I see no reason why video out is not an option for Diamond owners. you would need HTC video out cable of course.

I feel your pain...
but cave into your impulses
and be impatient and buy a diamond like me XD

look like it fat than the hermes, but it should in my pocket soon

XD I was soooo close... but then I resisted the dark side of the force
My current phone is 1,4mm thinker than the PRO... so I should be fine... although it looks quite bulky right next to the Diamond. But who cares if you get flash, battery, mircoSD slot, more ROM/RAM and a keyboard with it...
And maybe it comes earlier than expected
BTW: I fully support the request for a HTC Touch PRO ROM-developement sub-forum. General and accessories could be merged to a PRO/Diamond forum since everything is so similar.

Here is one comparison shot taken from phonescoop.com.
I took the side area of the Touch Diamond placed it over the Touch Pro (red area). Doing this gives a good impression how much more thickness the Pro adds to the Diamond layout. It actually does not appear that bulky anymore... I guess the Diamond simply is that slim
Update:
I took a better photo from ppcw.net - looks cleaner now...

Kaiser rocks!

I've been using the Kaiser for a couple of weeks now (a test model) and it rocks!
Previously I had the Hermes, and this one is so much sleeker. Design is better. It is visibly thinner.
The only problem I have is probably with the radio. It doesnt seem to have the same signal I got with the Hermes. (In my office, I used to have 2-3 bars with Hermes. This one gives me 1-2 bars)
Other than that it's awesome!
Could you please confirm if it has 128 mb of RAM, because mostly I can read about 64MB

hey bouaroudj. ive been really excited about the kaiser's qualcomm 7200 graphics chip. ive done comparisons to it and the dell axim's intel 2700 graphics accelerator and the kaiser's is much better. anyway, on a normal 400mhz device COD2 will run just fine. so im sure it will be the same. now what we really need testing is a PS1 emulator, and Quake 3. Those things will really tell us how good the kaiser is. =)
Video on the new Kaiser
The new Kaiser is really a great deal and it's a most solid PDA I have never seen. I had seen a detail hand on video on this new kaiser at http://mymobile911.com
can you post the rom version you are using?
I tried running cod setup and on both computers it tells me try freeing up harddrive space and trying again.. anyone know whats up with that? I have mucho gig's left on both.

HTC Touch Pro or Sony Ericsson Xperia X1?

Guys I've been thinking about these two for a while now, and i can't decide on which to buy. They both are very alike.. which do you guys prefer? I really dont care too much for the RCA compatibility feature much.. I really like both phones styles though, the Xperia even looks a bit more flashy. Should I go ahead and buy the Touch Pro with the shorter wait? or should i wait for the Xperia with the longer wait? help me out guys, any input appreciated
HTC Touch Pro

SE Xperia X1
My wife is waiting for the Xperia. I think it will be well worth the wait!!!
It's impossible to judge the Xperia right now, it might be an amazing phone, or it might be a really dissapointing fudge of what's already available in the Touch Pro. If the TP doesn't make you want to run out and buy it now, I'd just wait and see, the price is only going to go down in the meantime. If the X1 turns out to be the second coming in mobile form, then you know what to do! If it doesn't, then you'll probably still have saved a little money on the TP, or possibly have something else more interesting on the horizon.
For me, the Touch Pro is nice but not a big enough upgrade from my Kaiser, and the X1 is just more of the same. I'm quite sure they'd both bore me within months, so I'm going to go for something completely different this time around (an Iphone) while keeping the trusty Kaiser in reserve.
Perhaps WM7, and some of the more impressive processors on the horizon, will tempt me back next year. For now, going from one Qualcomm powered HTC to another (in the shape of either the Touch Pro or the Xperia) just doesn't appeal.
does anyone know how good the camera is as far as fps for video capture or how quick the touchpro locks on gps?
I already don't like the surface buttons for the Xperia...imo.
Also the ui buttons are too plain. If I had the Xperia I'd look into skinning asap.
HTC TyTN III is the HTC Touch Pro
Did they actually make the screen smaller on the TP II
I don't think so
I think Touch series is different
There will be a TyTN III, but it's not TP
Just my opinion
TyTN III will tilt, will have more H/W buttons as the TyTN II and hopefully will have all TP's good stuff
Didn't even hear anything abt it or read abt it
Just my two cents

I'm getting the Touch Pro when it becomes available on AT&T. I just can't stand any of Sony's phones... such a goofy looking interface.
Anyone know how much AT&T are going to do them for?

The Tilt was $299 at launch, so I would guess the Touch Pro would be close to that.

Bought Tilt at release for $150 (brand new) with contract. They had a 3day sale or something like that.. additional 50% off.
I'd recommend people to wait for something similar for TP, or ask AT&T about that sale.
when alltheway says touchpro IS the tytn3 it means TP IS THE TYTN3..he knows lol... its been a year since it was released and thats how HTC does it..every year new model in that line... HTC just realized that the tilting aspect just wasnt worth it and dropped the idea. Seriously its a business class phone...people using this for their business arent after the tilting they are after funcionality so HTC made the touch pro as the tytn2's predecessor period
Well, I agree with you that ATW knows what he says
But, the tilting idea cannot be given up.
Well, no one can say that for sure but let's wait and see..
IMO, not a TyTN III
TyTN series (TyTN,TyTN II) never had flushed screens
Only Touch series has that (Touch, Cruise, Dual, Diamond, Pro)
Plus, TyTNs have always had alot of H/W button and that would've been one big essence lack if TP was the *TyTN III*
Let's just hope TyTN III comes next year
I hope I am right cause I absolutely loved the tilting screen

They're not giving up on tilting... that's what the X1 is for.

Wts fuze / touch pro, ***look***

***PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK IF YOU VIEW***I know most of you on here know all ths stuff already, but this is my post i'm broadcasting on the various forums i am a part of. anyone that is interested, don't hesitate to pM or post, this is no joke or scam or anything, just trying to get this thing gone. don't be afraid to offer, whats the worse that could happen?***
This is one of AT&T's flagship phones. In my opinion, this is the best phone available one the market today, beating the Xperia X1, iPhone, etc.
I've always been a phone freak, and I do EXTENSIVE research before purchasing a new one. I've been dealing with HTC phones for over 3 years now, and I've never had a desire to go with another company. I love windows mobile and all the cool things you can do with it. The list of programs and applications is endless.
The phone has a GPS receiver built right into it, and I loaded TomTom 7 on it, making it a fully functional GPS unit. It also features a 3.2MP camera with a super bright flash, built in FM tuner, business card reader, mp3 player, picture and video viewer, and lots of other great things. Windows Mobile 6.1 works flawlessly on this phone, thanks to the OEM HTC ROM I flashed on this FUZE, essentially making it a HTC Touch Pro.
The new Touch Flo 3D interface is something to behold. This phone is absolutely beautiful, from it's high resolution VGA screen to its "diamond cut body" and perfect form factor.
I bought this phone for over $500, and I have to say, it was worth every penny. I'm selling it cheap, so don't miss out on this sweet oppurtunity. Thanks alot for reading, and happy buying.
Please no low balls, I'd prefer cash but may consider trades. I accept paypal and money orders. Due to my low feedback, I will work with you as far as shipping arrangements go. I will provide contact information upon payment, and provide confirmation numbers and information upon receiving.
Pictures!

Why would you sell if you love it this mutch? Dunno if this forum is designed for selling Phones.
i need cash quick.. got in a pretty bad car accident and I have zero transportation, gotta pay my car insurance. I bought a piece of **** car for $300, and i don't think it would be cool to have a cell phone that is worth more than my car.

[Q] should i?

ok, soon i can get a new phone... thank god its about time... after a year of struggling with this hell of an device called the SE X10i o.0
now im lookin for a phone where the bootloader isnt that hard to crack xD
and came to the point of htc as many ppl told me to look at...
would you guys suggest me this phone, or should i wait a little longer for a different one?
and how is the life-time of the battery? (l0st.prophet posted that the battery lifetime is about 24hours, which sounds awesome, can more people confirm this please?)
tbh the speaker cant be worse than the one from the x10i so im not very worried about that xD
thanks in advanced for the reply's ^^
Well it depends really ?.....what i mean is that currently no root has been found so you will have to make do with the current stock rom....this is a major down side for me as i prefer stock android....other than that ...great little phone ....battery life is good does last alot longer than xperia which i had about 8 months ago and is also better than my desire hd which i also currently have....also speakers not bad at all....better then desire hd again. All in all its a nice little phone ...just no root yet
Speakers better than the DHD? Really? Sounded tinny and low quality to me durung the demo I had with the device ...
@menov, little? I though it would be the same size as the x10? Ty for replys

little as in everything is little once you hold a desire hd lol....due to its 4.3 inch screen....but phones the same sort of size as the old desire.....dont think its as big as x10 though ....although most of the bulk of the x10 was from the frame.
As for speaker....it could be better ...but it is definitely a step or two up from desire HD as i did another test today and played two identical mp3 files ans you could here the incredible s alot more
.....just a quick post to say that put them side by side just now and they are both pretty much same size just DHD is a bit harder to hold and text with one hand.
Also although the incredible s is not that much louder...the music seems to have more depth. just thought id mention it
Look at later posts by me to see comparison images
Thanks allot mate for all your efforts

Thanks, that's a good guide. I tried the IS against the DHD in store and although they are not THAT much different in size they certainly feel it!
I have to say, the IS does look incredibly classy there ... very tempting!
Any chance of a pic with the screens on btw, maybe displaying the same page or something?
If anyone has any sample images from the IS I would also be very interested to see those.
I just pre ordered a Inc S here in Denmark, and i should recieve it at the start of april.
I have a HTC HD2 with Android NAND now, so im looking forward to run original Android soon.

I'm hopefully gonna be getting some help from an experianced dev on the rooting front, and I have contacted HTC about what accessories will be avalible and when (I personally want a car dock and desktop cradle) so I will post as soon as I get a reply
I am actually surprised that this phone hasn't been rooted already - even with the relatively short time it's been available.
I hope this isn't a sign that the devs are going to pass on this one - I'd like to see a LeeDroid rom for it and would be gutted to think it won't benefit from the support the Desire / DHD gets.
Edited Pics as was causing crashes on some browsers due to image size...should be a post further on...showing pics

Bigger is better - but i still prefer the Incredibel S ;-)
Thanks for the pics menov321.
The one of all three really demo's the difference between the DHD And the other two. The colours of the IS make the DHD look terrible. Can we assume that all settings on each are as close as can be to each other and this is exactly the same image background loaded onto each.
If so that's quite some demonstration of the poor quality of the DHD screen!
I'd be interested to see comparison pics of the DHD and IS displaying a graphic heavy website and also a video file or something paused to show the blacks and the contrast. I realise that's a tall order though -maybe I should just get one! lol
exactly the same image file used as just dropped the image onto each sd card of each phone ...and screen brightness is turned to full on all phones
Again i removed images as were too big..
@menov321
Would be nice if you could resize the images in your post. Or add them as attachment. Some of us are still using old mobile browsers you know
hahah...ok
hope this is better ...
