E-Ten is like an HTC wannabe... - Off-topic

They make windows mobile phones alot but it seems like HTC could have been just as good as HTC but they are falling down hard.
Opinions?

do you mean this??? :

yeah even i think like that
never owned any eten phones but they are very good on paper
maybe people prefer HTC for their customization(touch flo etc) and overall quality of the product

Well E-ten always miss the mark when it comes to style and design.

no more eten!
Acer bought them!
i got Acer F900, a htc hd clone!, but with usa 3g!

Wait; so the official HTC TouchVIVA has 201mhz processor, but nTC knockoff is 624mhz?

I have the knockoff, and it's easily the best phone I've ever had... but I got kinda edgy when I saw an official one, 'cause I'm like "Oh wow, that's gotta be even better!"
Specsheets show 201mhz omap crap ???
What you have is probably a Vogue (HTC Touch CDMA or Verizon xv6900 or Sprint Touch) rip off not an Opal (HTC Touch Viva).

Help me decide

i am buying a new phone which one should i buy i have tmobile and i want my 3g to work so i really don't have much of a choice its either htc pro2 or htc hd
lem me know your thoughts and suggestions. or tell me if theres another phone that i can buy
i had mytouch and i didnt like it.
The HD2 isn't out for T-Mobile yet, your two best options (IMO) are:
1. Nexus One (latest from Google with Android OS, Snapdragon processor) - http://www.google.com/phone
2. Touch Pro2 (awesome QWERTY, good productivity handset overall)

I say go for HD same hardware as topaz and thodium but bigger screen and no keyboard.
Just my 2 cents.
Cheers
Problem with going for HD or Topaz is that you cannot have it subsidized by T-Mobile. The TP2 and N1 and other hand can.
I'd recommend the N1 if you can agree to a new contract, as then it will be $180 instead of $530.

one problem with that is that not many phones have the same quality touchscreen as the iphone. I was a beast at typing on the iphone touchscreen, all other phones with touchscreen aren't quite as fluid
but now i have the touch pro 2 and i schmob with the keyboard
the only thing is i would get touch pro to but it run windows and as we all know windows suxxxx
Well...
Let´s not enter to endless discussion: WM is better than... or worst than...
On my experience it is useful enough to make it my business daily device (HTC and the rest of the apps hide well that you are in a WM device )
I´m quite happy with WM

Should I trade my HTC Pure with an iPhone?

I recently put my HTC Pure on craiglist for trade with iPhone. I got response from one girl who wants to trade her iphone 3G 8GB (she said she bought it 3 months back) with my HTC Pure.
I have less than a day to make this decision. And now I am so confused... Should I do this trade? Is it a fair deal?
A few more questions (may be this is not the right place to ask these questions but if anyone has any idea then please let me know.)
1. Is there a forum as good as xda-developers.com for iPhone? If yes then what is it?
2. Can I use my current ATT Phone Simcard into iPhone without buying the costly dataplan?
3. How will I make sure that the iPhone is not stolen one?
4. I have heard about "iPhone Clones". How to make out the difference between iPhone and "iPhone Clone"
No way!!!
I wouldn´t do it

Any Specific reason m8? I know I love my Pure and I am a big WM! I am doing this deal because I already have one more WM phone (ATT Tilt Kaiser) and now I want to see why does everyone talk about iPhone a lot.
There has to be something... Dont you think?
do it ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
is she local? if so, meet at a AT&T store and do the deal there....compare her iphone with the one in the store and find out if hers is a clone or not.
3G has a slow processor, and No real multi tasking. it's going be a downgrade for you, that's what i think. Lol. don't get sucked in with the candy clothed games
Do you know how slow the processor is?
I mean do you have an idea about the specifications of iPhone 3G processor vs. HTC Tilt?
I got both the 3G and the Pure, so I can comment on this
HTC is a work phone. Its designed to get stuff done. Office Mobile, multitasking, not to mention the inherent flexibility of WM. As a Pure owner, I'm sure you're aware of all of this.
All of this will be GONE on the iPhone. In its place will be a a great phone to consume media, HUGE selection of applications, a much more responsive touchscreen, and pretty much the best media experience on a phone.
What you gotta decide is which one of those things are more important to you. I couldn't decide on either, so I have been jumping back and forth for the past two months as what I need to get done with my phone changes.
Though, with the recent BS patent lawsuit from Apple, I havent been able to look at my iPhone or MacBook Pro the same way since...
I sold away my iPhone 3G after 3 months of having it. I need compatible Windows phone that will work with my PC so I stick to my Diamond2, TouchPro2 and 838Pro. For truly screen display, I have the Samsung Pixon 12 and OmniaII with AMOLED display which are very good in bright sunlight. For 12MP photo snapshots I have the Sony Ericsson Satio and the Samsung Pixon to do the job if I don't have my DSLR with me. The iPhone doesn't come close to any of these phones that are definite keepers for me. Therefore I sold the iPhone away without any regret. Talking about video calls on iPhone??? Apple have to do something about it.
I agree with demonic_pascal. We have both in my familly and I know what I prefer. Ever tried to to transfer files to/from the iphone? Its a PITA bigtime. I don't agree with comments about the media experience etiher. The Topaz will play far more file formats than the iPhone. If you are looking for a game console then get the iphone. If you want a phone that gets thigns done stick with teh Topaz.
2. Can I use my current ATT Phone Simcard into iPhone without buying the costly dataplan?
I dont think this is possible, cuz once the sim card is put into the phone, it will automatically update your phone to ATT database and you will force buy a data plan. You can try to unlock your iphone, I heard this works, but not so sure though.
4. I have heard about "iPhone Clones". How to make out the difference between iPhone and "iPhone Clone"
There are several post online that show you how to spot a fake iphone. Generally, the cover is not as polish, the Apple logo, the fine print on the back, the screen size.
The iphone is the good phone, it has a fast processor that runs games and app smoothly but I still wouldn't make the trade though. First, the Iphone 3G now is kinda obsolete. Second, she said that you have one day to make the trade, did she give you the good reason? If not, most of the time people just want to scam you so they put the time limit to make you think its a good deal. So just make sure that its real, tell her to post proof and ask her why the rush? Lastly, the ideal of owing an Iphone is just not that intriguing to me.
Never dream of it!
You'll regret it m8.. don't do it!

Lol Already sold my Pure for 300.
Now buying the iPhone in 270 from a local store. Lets see what happens.
I will post my experience. But I am still a XDA coz I have a TILT
Got rid of iphone. But I will say it is a lot better and finger friendly operating system than windows mobile. Bought htc hd 2 thereafter but sold that too eventually... After using iphone I can't use windows mobile lol.
Right now I have google nexus one. Wow... I love this phone more than any thing ever! Android is the best operating system. It is as finger friendly as iphone and you can customize it like windows mobile.

Answer is no even tho you already made the deal. Just buy an iPod Touch and have it as mp3/video player+internet+twitter+facebook+email. I got a TD2 right now together with an iPod and I think it's a nice combination because I waste my battery in less than 6 hours if I start listening to music or watch videos.
I will get a HD2 later on tho but I will only use it for telephone, internet, email, sms, videos and all that stuff. iPod as mp3 player, always.
Iphone has about 400 times more apps and games. the 8 gig is slower but the 32gig and 64 are faster better hardware. if it were my i would trade my pure for the iphone 8gig. I have an ipod 32 gig i compared it next to my buddys 32gig iphone. as for app launching etc.. they were pretty much equal.. but my daughters 8 gig ipod next to my pure the the ipod is faster as in moving around and lauching most apps.
but hey. good luck

[Q] Still worth buying ?

Hi,
I had XPERIA X1 for something like year but foolishly traded it for iPhone (big mistake). I loved its QWERTY keyboard, awesome design, that it was made of metal and of course WinMo. So I'd like to know if it is still worth buying and if there are any other (newer) phones in the market that have design similar to XPERIA or at least they are made from metal (not necessarily every part) and of course (that is a must) have QWERTY keyboard. Please tell me, what do you suggest.
From the sheer amount of issues with the X1, get an X2 instead or something else if you want a QWERTY keyboaard on WM!
I'm searching for device that is made from good materials and it doesn't have to have WinMo (any OS will do), just physical QWERTY keyboard (maybe also unique design like XPERIA).
PS: Still, I'd like to know if you think that XPERIA X1 is worth buying or not.
Take a look at the google g2, my friend has one and don't let that 800 mhz fool you...it is buttery smooth.....
Depends on the price. If you can get an X1 for a hundred bucks, it's a good buy. If not, get one of the newer phones. Windows Mobile "classic" is a dead platform, haven't seen new useful apps in months.
i think you should buy t-mobile g2/htc desire z (hardware is the same, but htc desire z has htc sense)
get the Motorola Milestone or if on a budget, HTC Fuze

What phone to buy as alternative to htc hd2

Hi guys, I 've being really happy to use my htc hd2 for nearly 3 years. I was using WM6 custom roms first, then i moved to Android and than to dual WP7/Android SD. It is really honorable and cool device. But now I am thinking to move forward and get new device. In a couple of month when WP8 will be released I will be looking to a new devices and may be pick one of them, preferably HTC or may be Nokia lumia or may be something else but definitely not iPhone.
Anyway what I am really want is to be able dual boot my new device like HTC HD2 does. So what do you think is there are potentially something like that will come up or should I better order one more brand new HTC HD2 on ebay . What do you think.
I see you like customization ! If I am right then you shouldn't go with wp devices. As the beggining you won't be able to have android. Don't mention about dual boot. You should go with some device like HTC one X or GS 3 !

what's wrong with the iphone you can customize the case to it
The nokia phone looks good right now but yeah, not too much customizing yet from looks of it, This based off of lack of customizing on Windows phone 7...
I don't even want to suggest it but if it does come out this year, I can't see blackberry 10 phone doing well against likes of iphone 5/lumia 920/galaxy 3... but who knows? At least blackberry was fairly customizable back then... part of rim's problem was making a phone that outdo current market then delaying the phone and it is outdated itself by time it is out :S at least nokia this time is putting out something that'll lead the pack for a while, no word on how the microsoft side of it is going though.
