Poor battery life

No memory expansion
No camera flash
No 3.5mm headphone jack
Unimpressive battery life
The 2.8-inch touch screen
While compatible with HTC's TouchFLO interface (which lets you flick through screens or photos by swiping your fingertip) is still a fair way behind the iPhone's interface
And the touch sensitivity isn't as accurate...
Sluggish interface performance
Lack of flash on camera
Screen isn't as responsive as we would have liked
Very poor battery life
TouchFLO 3D runs slowly and is not always well integrated with Windows Mobile
Sleek, petite handset design, TouchFlo 3D is stunning, Great connectivity, Simplified email set-up and threaded SMS
Appalling battery life, No true navigation software, Prone to extended lag spikes, Platform is still a bit buggy
Its very hard to hate the Diamond and in a world obsessed with the iPhone the Diamond offers a viable alternative. Frequent lag spikes did test our patience and the dismal battery life is concerning, but the Diamond still stands out as a beautifully ...
Abstract: The new HTC Touch Diamond gets its name from the beveled edges of the back case. At first glance, it may strike you as something ordinary, even a run-of-the-mill Windows Mobile PDA. But slowly, all the extras will start coming to light. For start...
Powerful Processor, Windows Mobile 6.1, Full Touchscreen, 4GB internal Memory, GPS, WiFi.
Slow, Build Quality, Fingerprint magnet, Poor Utilization of Touch Wheel, Battery Life, SIM Locked, No memory card slot, Heating, No 3.5mm jack.
The HTC Touch Diamond sells for around Rs. 26,700 with a 1-year warranty. The phone comes locked to Airtel network. After all that Ive said you now must have realized that the phone is not all that great. There is a lot that goes against this phone....
Abstract: Well, even the best diamond specimens have imperfections, whether they are visible to the naked eye or less so. Yet, last time we checked they were still quite worth it. The situation is a bit similar with HTCs own precious stone. The Touch Diamond h...
Faster than earlier Touch phones, TouchFLO is snazzy and functional, Plenty of great features, 3.2MP autofocus camera
Battery life needs to be improved, Some more RAM would be nice, No expandable memory slot
The Touch brand from the HTC stable has certainly evolved. From the Touch to the Dual and now the Touch Diamond, it feels like a planned strategy. All these phones were launched in a short span of time, while adopting significant design and feature-lis...
Abstract: The HTC Touch Diamond is finally in our office and you can count on it getting all the attention it deserves. Just as a little teaser we decided to give you this short preview of the highly sought after gadget that seems to have it all...

Abstract: If you take a heavy wrench, hit it repeatedly against the weak joints of a rusty sewerage pipe, youll still have fewer leaks than what was revealed about the Touch Diamond before its official launch. To HTCs credit, the official release was still pre...
Nice size; TouchFLO 3D interface looks really good.
TouchFLO 3D slows down when there’s a lot of applications running in the background; battery life could be better; speakerphone function next to useless.
Just like the Touch and the Touch Dual, the Touch Diamond has really taken great strides in making the whole Windows Mobile interface a lot nicer to look at, if not necessarily easier to use. In fact, if the Touch Diamond is anything to go by, HTC w...
