HTC Touch review

June 19th, 2007

Having compared the Touch to the iPhone recently, I decided to dig around and find a decent video clip of the TouchFlo technology in action. I found this snippet from Shiny Media, presented by a Microsoft zealot and an HTC non-believer, so whilst there were no fisticuffs at least we were presented with a relatively unbiased review.


The TouchFlo technology did look good in action, but the QWERTY touch pad? Man, who has fingers that small! I know you have a stylus but surely they could have come up with something better for input. Having said that there was an interesting quote in the video from HTC regarding the Touch’s market

It’s not designed for business people, it’s going to be for the multi-media user.

I guess that says it all really, a great cellphone/mp3 player but not a real pocket PC.

    HTC’s Phonepad application is not included with the touch but can easily be added as can other on-screen keyboards which make text entry just as easy on the touch as on the Nokia E65.
