  • 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...

  • 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 ...

  • Good design, Good Camera, Great battery life, Audio quality is great
  • No GPS software included, The stylus is required in certain places
  • ConnectivityThe Diamond 2 is well laid out for connectivity. It’s 3G (with HSDPA) ready even though we’re still a long way away from the country being ready, so in this case you’ll have to suffice with EDGE/GPRS connectivity. The handset...

  Published: 2009-04-30, review by: gsmarena.com

  • Abstract:  With each new phone released running the TouchFLO, HTC manage to sweep some more of Windows Mobile under the rug and replace it with their silky smooth interface. Touch-optimization is at a level where you can almost forget about the stylus. We guess ...
