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
HTC is well known for their PDA and smart phone. They ruled this market until Apple rolled into town and shook things up a bit. This is HTCs first new release since the iPhone hit shelves, and from looking at this phone, HTC isnt sitting back and see...
Abstract: Sleek, slick, and packed with features, the HTC Touch Diamond has a lot to offer (3G and WiFi connectivity), some curious omissions (no expansion card slot), and features that are both impressive and sometimes puzzling (that TouchFlo interface). If a t...
Molasses-slow performance, Dated menus under TouchFLO, Interface requires stylus, *
Despite warm initial impressions of both the phone and its TouchFLO interface, extended use proved that the hardware inside wasn’t ready to handle such a graphically heavy system running on a dated architecture like Windows Mobile 6.1. Short of ...

As a whole, HTC did a good job when designing this phone and the TouchFLO 3D interface. Although there are a few things we’d change (like adding a 3.5mm audio jack and a microSD slot), none of these things are deal breakers. Assuming you can live wi...
Abstract: These days it's impossible to review a touchscreen phone without comparing it to the iPhone. So, is the HTC Touch Diamond a true competitor for Apple? Well, for starters the Diamond is not entirely touch, but features a five-way joypad and call button...
You will have to pardon me if I don't come off as extra excited about the Diamond. Yes, the screen and browser are unbelievable in person. But the usability after getting past TouchFLO 3D, limiting battery life, and way too twitchy motion sensor leave...
On paper, the Touch Diamond promises the cellular equivalent of 007-level debonair style and efficiency, but it feels more like a junior agent-in-training in the end. Its remarkably capable with its Windows Mobile operating system, but the TouchFLO i...
