Unable to expand memory
Typing can be awkward
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

Sluggish interface performance
Lack of flash on camera

Very poor battery life
TouchFLO 3D runs slowly and is not always well integrated with Windows Mobile
Abstract: The Touch Diamond combines style and the powerful Windows Mobile platform that many business users need with the HTC TouchFLO 3D user interface. The Diamond does make a few concessions, however, that are sure to put some potential users off.

Abstract: Video Review: Were getting intimate with the HTC Touch Diamond phone, which isnt the iPhone and doesnt run on Googles Android, but wants to prove its worth in the current market nonetheless....
Dismal battery life. TouchFLO is inconsistent in spots. Subpar video playback. No memory card slot. Gets very hot during calls (more so than the iPhone).
With its 3G support and much lower (subsidized) price, Sprints version of the Touch Diamond makes more sense than the unlocked version, but its poor battery life and assorted software-related issues remain drawbacks....

Abstract: We met with HTC at CTIA Wireless this morning for a hands-on with their latest Windows Mobile smartphones. Sprint’s Touch Pro and Touch Diamond were on show, while the non-touchscreen S740 made an appearance as well. The Diamond is basically the same d...
Thicker and heavier than the original, TouchFLO 3D is only skin deep
While we havent given it the complete thrashing that we usually subject cell phones to, we have every confidence that the HTC Touch Diamond for Sprint will impress people. It has a slick top-level user interface and is jam-packed with features. We fi...
Abstract: When we looked at the GSM HTC Touch Diamond that was released overseas in June 2008, we liked what we saw, with a few caveats. The smartphone featured HTCs new TouchFLO 3D user interface, which could be a tad laggy at times (much improved with subseq...
