HTC Diamond Impressions

   Posted by: Vlad   in Mobile

htctouchdiamond.jpg      A month ago I decided to change my Nokia N70 with a smarter phone, so I purchased an E-Ten Glofiish X800. I read a lot of online reviews and I decided that the generous processor and display resolution was enough to make me proud of my new phone. Besides that the large community from ETEN Users should keep me away from any future problem.

But soon after this I started being dissapointed by the lack of memory. I like having the newest applications, and I test my gadgets to the max, and the 64 Mb of RAM made this very difficult. So after a little tweaking with some custom ROMs, I decided that I need more RAM. So I oriented towards other smart phones. In my search I found the newly appeared HTC Diamond. It had a 528 processor, 192 Mb Ram, a VGA display, and it was optimized for touch. I bought it and even by this moment, more than two weeks later, I still am excited with it. Every day I find some new tricks and it seems that the HTC team did a very good job with this device. All the applications I needed, like iGO 2008, work very smooth, the telephone application is very responsive, and even the new TouchFlo plugin works quite well despite what everybody says.

So for the moment this smartphone meets my requirements and I recommend it to everyone.

Thanks for that, it\’s handy to know. Several times now, since installing Ubuntu exclusively i\’m my laptop, i\’ve wondered about the complexities of installing and running a VM for Windows. You just made it a little easier!
