The editors didn't like
Windows’ fiddly buttons and insistence on stylus control
Apparently
You CAN put lipstick on a pig. But you wouldn’t want to snog it. HTC’s gorgeous TouchFLO 3D interface looks delightful and handles well
But there’s no forgetting that Bill Gates and pals are responsible for 90 percent of wha...
Still gets messy with fingerprints
Could do with larger megapixel camera
Music player is a token addon.
Windows Mobile dirt still lurks a few menu taps beneath the shiny TouchFlo 3D surface
Touchscreen could be more responsive
Some connectivity issues
Touchscreen performance issues. No 3.5mm jack. Camera performance lacks cutting edge. No geotagging
The display is hardly legible in the sun, Mediocre multimedia capabilities, Accelerometer is not perfect
As a whole, the Diamond2 proves to be a worthy successor in the lineup and it´s not a disappointment, except for the fact it´s less innovative alongside of previous models. The Touch brought out both TouchFLO and design that had been hard to imagine ...

Abstract: It’s set to be a tough year for smartphones, and there’s plenty of change afoot as companies battle amid tightening customer purse-strings. The new iPhone is set to arrive over the summer; Palm’s Pre is imminent, and Microsoft have the latest incarnat...
Abstract: HTC is following up on its ultra-sexy touchphone, the Touch Diamond, with the new Touch Diamond2, which seems quite worthy of the title of successor. This time around theres much more room for screen, with a huge 3.2-inch 480 x 800 LCD up front, and a...

No case included, Automatic screen rotation is limited, Speaker distorts at loud volumes, Stylus is no longer magnetic, Needs a more robust builtin video player, No flash on camera, No 3.5mm jack or converter included, microSD slot is under battery cover...
On its own, the Diamond2 is a true winner. Its refined in every way that a phone should be refined, and it represents the best hardware and software interplay that we have yet to see on a Windows Mobile device. The increased screen sensitivity, fo...
Abstract: HTC Touch Diamond 2. They say diamonds are a girls best friend, and it was with this in mind that I took the swanky Touch Diamond 2 from HTC for a test drive. Like its predecessor, this slick handset fits very nicely in my palm and is a treat for ...
Abstract: The Touch Diamond2 has a lot of new and improved features that make it one of the few Windows Mobile based phones worth looking at this year. This HTC smartphone is definitely better than its predecessor and will simplify the way users communicate. Cl...
Fast and visually appealing TouchFLO 3D interface, Windows Mobile interface has been pushed into the background, responsive touch screen, HSDPA, Wi-Fi, GPS, 5-megapixel camera
Text input is tedious, no flash on camera, no 3.5mm headphone jack
HTC’s Touch Diamond 2 is a far better smartphone than its predecessor. The lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack is annoying, but a larger display, a professional design and a much improved user interface make this one of the best Windows Mobile smartphone...
Good Looks, Good large screen, Touch responsive, TouchFLO Interface, GPS, Wi-Fi, Zoom bar, Powerful, Battery
Overly Smooth Body-No Grip, no 3.5mm jack, Fingerprint, No Memory card bundled
The HTC Touch Diamond 2 sells for Rs. 31,000 with a one year warranty. The Touch Diamond 2 is sure a good phone but there are points that need to be considered. At the given price, the Diamond 2 is in iPhone territory making the iPhone a better choice ...
