If so whats it like ? Just due an upgrade soon and wondered if it was any good compared to my previous HTC phones (currently Touch 256mb) and the HTC Vario 2 before that.
The screen is one thing that worries me the Vario 2 and the Touch both have a decent screen size the touch is QVGA. the Vario IV is VGA is this better worse or what?
bit of info on the phone would be appriciated as I am stuck as T- Mobile have the worst selection of phones avalaible. Not Touch HD or anything.
Yes, this is MDA Vario IV. The VGA resolution helps a lot - it looks on Touch Pro/Raphael/Vario IV far better, but it has to do something with the improved display quality too.

QVGA means 'Quarter VGA' - VGA is 4x better resolution. The touch pro is a good phone, but it depends what your gonna use it for. No offense, but if you don't even know the differance between VGA and QVGA, then I doubt you will make full use of the phones features and it will be an expensive toy to make calls and send texts.
I suggest think about what you want from a phone, and lookign around at your choices.
Hi there
The screen quality is better than any of the other htc phones that I have previously owned.
That said, I have since realised that I miss the screen size of my ameo. Mind you it is nice to have a phone that fits in your pocket!!!
On reflection I think that the touch pro 2 (aka vario v) withit's larger screen would suit me better- my bad for being impatient I guess.
T-mob claim that the vario v will be available from next month

I know what the phone can do currently use my ELFIN for most things sync email, wireless router, rdp and i know what QVGA, VGA and WVGA mean. I just havent seen one in the flesh yet and had mixed info on if the screen size is any good.
I believe that our screens are marginally smaller than yours- if you are happy to have a slightly smaller screen then go for it- if not wait for the pro 2(vario v).
Having previously had an athena I was spoiled wrt the screen size- frankly I find zooming in and out of web pages to be a pain.
Google maps on a screen this size is not as useful as the athena(ameo).
Overall I like my vario iv but will probably upgrade to the vario v at some point.
Personally, the main reason i upgraded from the Kaiser (Vario III) was for the VGA screen. yes, the IV has big changes apart from that, its much shinier, and has less buttons (that took some getting used to, as i used to have all the buttons custom mapped) - however, if you use the Elfin, you should be used to that.
The IV is much bigger than the Elf (i'm assuming the Elfin is in the same form factor - never played with an enhanced one) but not really bigger than the Vario II - go play with one in a shop before you upgrade!
Also, as you appear to have gone away from having a slide out keyboard, do you want one? (again personally once i had one [Wizard] i cant go back!) if no, try the Diamond (Compact IV) its very similar in looks to the Vario IV, and, as i understand it, the functionality is pretty similar (watch out - the original ones didnt have a SD slot. Not sure what version T-Mob are selling)
As always, the phone is under powered & pretty crap out the box, but if you read enough info here & flash the rom & radio, you should be able to get a very good replacement which can do everything your old haul of phones can do, and more!
As always, it depends on exactly what you want from your device - but if you can live with the size, the Raphael gives you a decent VGA screen, built in GPS, HSDPA and if you're really bored, you can always make calls on it!
If you want any specific info, say what you want, remember, most people here will like their phone (otherwise they'd have changed it!) so 70-90% of the comments here will be about what the phone can do, and how great it is!

I've been buying HTC devices every year since the very first XDA came out. Normally its a simple affair, just ring up O2 and order the next model out but there's so many to choose from now and this year I'm just spoiled for choice.
I'm currently using an Orbit which I really love, it has just about everything I need. About the only improvements I would make is 3G, VGA, more memory, faster processor. So whats available? There seem so many to choose from these days.
I know the iphone is a pile of crap but you must admit it looks good. Don't HTC do a similar style i.e. all screen and fewer buttons?
Anyone got any opinions?
Top of the pops at the moment is the Athena but I think it may be too big for my pocket. Is there anything with a similar spec only smaller yet?
How about Orbit II ?
Has everything you want, except VGA display...
400Mhz CPU, 128MB RAM, UMTS/HSDPA, 3MP camera....
Olioaglio
Yep the Orbit 2 will be my next phone.
The iPhone is very very tempting, and regardless of what hardcore WM fans say, its a very fast, fluid interface and is generally what the public want to see from a touch phone, as proved by its massive sales figures,
Buuuuuuuut the orbit 2 has built in GPS, decent 400mhz proccessor, 3G, flush screen, 3MP auto focusing camera, with video, a second smaller camera on the front for video calls, loads of ram. Go for the Orbit 2 for the time been, get the iphone version 2 in a few years as its probly gunna take over the world lol.
I assume we're talking about the Polaris or Touch Cruise?
Didn't realize it was also referred to as the Orbit 2. Does that mean it will be released by O2 in the UK? Any idea when? (I know the Cruise has been put back to mid Jan)
Anyway I've decided to get a second hand Athena for now (no new contract). I've always wanted VGA and TV out. If I can't get on with the size then I'll get the Orbit2 or Cruise when it arrives.
Yeah its the o2's version of the polaris is called the Orbit 2.
http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2007/11/09/o2_xda_orbit_2/ for some screenshots and info. Alot of sites are saying its going to get released 1st quarter of 2008, many are saying January.
Is money is no object there is always this phone.
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicat...224-1010&CMP=EMC-TIGEREMAIL&SRCCODE=WEM1526BY
What's after Artemis/P3300
Hello, I had the same dilemma, I have this phone for a whole year, I never had a phone for so long, but there is nothing really better out there to replace it with.
I thing the best thing if you don't need keyboard is the Cruise, and I guess I'll have to wait for it.
I think it's a good choice because it has all what this phone has plus 3G and flush screen.
The fact that it does not have VGA does not bother me, because VGA at this tiny screen does look better, but you can't really use it in the VGA resolution it's just too small for the eyes. All the other VGA phones just emulate a 320x240 screen, so it looks much nicer, but not more than that.
I tried a whole bunch of phones, I had the iPhone for almost a month, and it is really great, it is fast, smooth, beautiful and great at what it does, but it does not do much, if you are used to use a lot of the functions of the pocket pc you realize that the iphone almost worthless.
I also had the E-Ten x800 lately, I used it for about an hour and got rid of it, it is painfully slow, I couldn't get it to play a movie normally, it does not make sense, it has 520mhz cpu and it is still extremely slow, also I didin't like the way it looks at all. The VGA screen is good but there is no major difference, and I didin't try 3G in it.
I also have the Gigabyte Gsmart i350 right now, it's nice and small, very fast and has VGA screen, it also has GPS, I really like it but the lack of 3G is a real setback, it does not even have edge, only GPRS wich makes it really slow internet browsing.
One more important thing is the company that makes the phones, there is no such good quality as HTC, the build, the feel, and quality of calls, it beats every onther company out there.
Also this site makes me get only HTC phones, there is no such a site with so much support and options for your phone, with so many great people working and helping each other!!!!!
The bottom line is that the Cruise seems to be the best combination of all the features that are out there, VGA would make it a killer of a phone, but after playing with some VGA phones I don't think it makes such a big difference, also a lot of the apps out there don't support VGA screen, I think in a couple of months there will be a much better support for it.
I hope that my little thoughts and mini reviews will help you with your decision.
The Kaiser is great, but if I could do it again or had the bux to spare, I'd go with a Polaris.
I hardly ever use the Kaiser keyboard and the fm radio on the Polaris sounds like an interesting addition. Other than that, the feature sets (between Kaiser & Polaris) are identical.
See pdadb for comparison info.
I just purchased an HTC Touch Pro and have some observations about it compared to my Touch Cruise which I've used with good success for over 6 months.
The TP screen is slightly smaller -- probably evident if I'd looked at the specs more closely but I was a bit surprised to have them side by side and realize this. The VGA on the TP overcomes any loss in screen area -- the display is quite clear and the lettering crisp. Since it's the same as the Diamond this is probably "old news" for most.
The TP is narrower and slightly shorter than the TC. Surprisingly, its added thickness due to the keyboard is hardly noticeable.
Have to admit I'm a bit disappointed by the TF3D compared to my TC -- perhaps it's just my normal usage pattern (I've always been comfortable with a stylus and use a combination stylus/pen/pencil) since I regularly use my finger/finger nail for many things on my TC with good success. The TF3D is slick and the graphics are nice -- love the weather display. But I'm considering setting it up like my TC w/o the TF3D because I find there are limitations that don't match what I'm used to with Wisbar/PocketBreeze/PocketWeather. I need to practice with the TF3D some more to ensure it's not just my unfamiliarity with it since its finger commands are far more comprehensive than the TC capabilities.
There is no question in my mind that HTC has done a great job of packaging and presenting this jewel. Although in many ways it's similar to the TC, it just seems more slick and "refined" -- comfortable to hold and use -- the keyboard is really good -- a worthy competitor to the iphone IMHO.
But..... is the ~$1K price worth what I "gain" over the TC -- I'm not yet convinced it is.
someone offered me a touch pro... i checked out the diamond, loved it and decided the i'd buy the touch pro since the only thing i didn't like about the diamond is the fact that it doesn't have a MicroSD slot. to be honest, i'd prefer a Diamond.. but the lack of memory slot is such a ****ed up business that i decided that even tho the TP is 50g heavier, i'd rather have it than have the diamond
Are you buying an actual Touch Pro or one of the gimped service provider versions? I'd go with 100% genuinely tasty HTC branded version.
Anywhoo, as you pointed out, you can always change the UI, and the device is significantly more powerful than the TC.
By the way, if you don't want your TC, i'll take it off your hands for exactly free.

Yes it's the HTC UK version -- everything as described in numerous reviews -- I think my challenge is to learn TF3D. Once I get used to it I'll feel more comfortable with the overall interface. I'm using my TC and TP side by side right now -- while it's true the TP is more powerful (and a very nice UI) it holds its own.
I wish that the pro/diamond "dial" thing ont he dpad did the same things that the cruise one does, i can't get enough of that thing. so usefull. I didn't see in the specs that the touch pro had a smaller screen. Thought it was 2.8, like every other screen/

Why are you quoting me? Read the original post.
appologise, miss read it.
I have been looking at the TC mainly because I am not going to drop 1K on it. Also the fact that the diamond dose not has a card slot is just plain stupid. I am torn between the TC & the Kaiser. For the most part they both have the same specs. I currently have the Hermes & do not use the slide out much. So, missing it wouldn't be a big deal. Any thoughts on which is the better device?
brucewilson:
does this post means to say that TP and TC are physically almost the same? in specification, for me, TP should have a lot more power compared to TC (in both RAM and ROM size, don't remember what CPU speed is). shouldn't it be a lot faster in executing whatever you tell it to do? sorry if my question sounds dumb, I just used my TC for exactly 7 days when it broke (it just decide to break and all I do is using it as GPS to get around different states) and I just got it back from HTC repair yesterday. so I'm ready to trade it up with something more powerful and is not as easy to break. was looking at Kaiser but for some reason doesn't find much appeal in it, Raphael is more attractive, probably the glossy look and the keyboard?
The Touch Pro has a Qualcomm MSM7201A 528 processor MHz where the Cruise only has a 400 MHz processor. The Touch Pro also has double the memory.
I think the Touch Pro is perfect. strong graphics, strong CPU, lots of memory, MSD slot.. and all those new features someone found using the front of the device
I am looking to replace my Trinity and right now the iPhone is the top contender (I am with AT&T anyway.)
But I'd love to keep the flexibility I get from WM, and have finally made my Trinity rock solid (it hasn't crashed in weeks
The big thing for me is the screen, I like 3.5 and I like the resolution - the Omnia just doesn't look as good to me, plus its screen is smaller.
Is HTC, or someone else, coming out with something new, soon, which will have the screen, the memory (16gb is good) and is also a decent looking phone?
Anyone know?

Anyways. Back on topic. WAIT FOR THE AT&T TOUCH PRO. Nuff said.
Silly wabbit! iPhones are for kids.... Any anyone else without enough brain matter to operate a WM device.
If there is too much time on your contract to bail, I'd say wait for the Touch!
Unfortunately, the Touch Pro only has a 2.8" screen, which is a big disadvantage, compared to the 3.5" screen on the iPhone.
I am looking for at least 3.5".
(and since I had my Wizard, I've decided that slider keyboards are useless to me.)
For a screen that size you will need something like a Sedna.
I personally just got the I900. I had an IPhone for a month and I definitely prefer the Omnia I900. However it only has a 3.2" screen and you want 3.5".
I would have gotten a Sedna as I wanted a bigger screen, but at the last minute I got an Omnia and I am really happy with it.
The Touch Pro looks nice, that would probably be my second choice. The omnia has the best on screen keyboard I have seen so far. It not particularly special in any way other than the fact that it works well in Portrait and in landscape with the autmatic rotate function I can rapidly get precise, fast two thumb typing going by just rotating the phone (assuming I have two hands free.)
I have iTouch and have to say that I love it`s touch-screen accuracy, much better than in wm-phones with 2.8" screen, it is just so tiny compared to 3.5" screen.. I usualy do wlan with wmwifirouter and browse net using iTouch since it has bigger resolution and 3.5" screen which doesn`t need stylus + Safari is fast !
One thing what I don`t understand is this 2.8" Wmphonemania, why are they not making 3.5" screens on them ? And 3.2mp cameras are oldish, I love N95 5mp camera, it just takes so good shots, I am jealous :>
But either Symbian or iPhone`s OS, cannot beat WinMo as an operating system :X

like for sex size doen't matter... the real problem is: what will be your use of your next phone...
i have tried both one week (iPhone3g and diamond) and i goes diamond because iPhone is too much limited for my use... try both and see what will be your's
How about the Dream?
I am amazed that noone mentioned the HTC Dream. The first Android phone to hit the market will be released on October 13th. Check it out.
Anything Comparable to the iPhone Coming Out On the WM Side? (Quote)
Just surf this forum and you will find a lot of nice options:
HTC G1
HTC HD
etc...
This was exactly the question I was working on for a number of months. Although I also added in, "And won't cost me an arm and a leg".
It finally came down to the Daxian T32/x999+ (Chinese iPhone-ish clone) and the HTC Blue Angel. If the T32 had some buttons that could be used in gaming like the HTC I would've gone with that I think, but I got the HTC Blue Angel instead and it's great.
Of course this is my first PDA, so maybe I'm easily impressed.
Anything else out there either costs WAY too much or has a much smaller screen, or even both. It's too bad nobody is taking the Blue Angel and reworking it with today's technology to make it sleeker and better. Great little machine so far!
http://gizmodo.com/5047830/htc-touch-hd-looks-big-and-beautiful
How about this?
I think it's called HTC Touch HD. Don't know if HD stands for High Definition.
Anyway, this phone for sure has your requirement of 3.5 screen.
Currently SEP900i for more than 2 years now and would like to change to Winmobile again.
Previously used O2 blueangel first with WM2003SE and then with WM5.
Currently i would like to know which phone do you suggest based on above 3. Though i would miss the keyboard on omnia but the camera and some other software features looks interesting.
Also since i dont change my mobile for at least 2 years leaving in China where we dont have mobile plans in EU so i would like to know if any of the 3 can be installed with WM7 whenever it is launched. Sorry if this is a little stupid but wont harm if i know could be done in future.
TIA.
omnia got a bigger screen but lower res
"i would like to know if any of the 3 can be installed with WM7 whenever it is launched"
nobody can say for sure
acceleration Meter would prob mean more wm7 features supported though x1 dont have that not sure about Omnia
Omnia has an accelerometer
edit: in Asia there is an Omnia that has an 800x480 screen, if your looking at Omnia's then check this out. I think its called the Omnia-T (but not sure - google is your friend). Also, Samsung are very prolific with firmware upgrades and being very aggresive at supporting the phone in this manner. Much more active than HTC have ever been and VERY quick to fix issues with new firmware. check out i900.modaco.com for more info.
The Omnia feels quite cheap, and is only so popular because a lot of people know Samsung.
The HTC's are by far the best.
The Xperia has a smaller screen, and a small keyboard.
The Pro is ofcourse very nice, but quite large around the waist. ;-)
Xperia has higher resolution and nicer screen.
I was doubting for a while too, but I've tested them all, and yesterday decided to buy the HD.
Omnia already had quite some problems, and the resolution of the Touch Pro is not suited for the future.
The Hd's 800*400-screen is unbelieveable.
That's right, go for HTC Touch HD.
Regards,
Carty..

Tested them all? I OWN a Touch Diamond (before that, TyTN and TyTN2 and BlueAngel) and EVERY HTC device I have ever had has had to be returned for physical failures at least once if not twice. Actually, thats a lie: the TD hasn't because I gave up with it after trying various diferent ROMs. This has now been refunded by the ebay seller as under UK law its "Not Fit For Purpose". (And the new euro constitution want's to get rid of our Sales of Goods Act - UK people, dont let them!!!)
The last phone I had between the tytn 2 and TD was a Tosh G900 and this was faultless - just like my I900 which is also FAULTLESS. The Omnia has some software issues to start with (Blank screen of death) but these were aggresivley fixed by Samsung, far quicker than HTC have ever done with any of there issues.
HTC devices are designed great but pi** poor manufacturing quality in my experience as can be seen from my history. I said once before that I would NEVER buy another HTC device and I didn't but then relented and purchased a TD .... only to be proved that I should never buy a HTC device.
btw, the first phone to have a 800*480 screen was the Tosh G900 .... been there, done that.... for well over a year. Well done HTC for catching up .... finaly
Before anyone shouts TomTom (at the Omnia) ... this has been proven by the guys on Modaco that this is a TomTom programing issue and not a Samsung problem. But then, this is also easily got around with GPSGate or similar.
I will point out though that if games are your choice, the Omnia is not the best choice as games often have hard coded screen resolutions and these won't work - again, maybe look for the 800x480 Omnia which is about to launch in Asia.
And finaly, Hands up all those that have 32gig in there phone......

Hi,
I am looking to replace my MDA Compact IV with either the HTC HD2 or the Toshiba TG01 or iPhone 3GS.
I have not really seen either of these phones properly, but have read reviews online.
Does anyone have any views on which is the better phone??
I have thown the iPhone in as a comparison, but would rather stick with a WM based phone.
right off the back i say the hd2 its packing a 1gz snapdragon processor. switching from the iphone and going to the hd2 u well be please. It basically the touch pro 2 with out a keyboard but the tp2 is packing a 512mb processor.
But i say get the HD2 ur getting a fast phone, better cam, look better and you can tweak your phone etc. idk it the shi lol
DONT GET THE TOSHIBA TG01!!!
I sold mine after only a few weeks, here are the problems i found after upgrading to windows mobile 6.5
1) the funky home screen stopped moving in 3D and only kinds slid across the screen
2) the g-sensor is crap somtimes u turn the phone and nothing happens, then you turn it back and it will quickly flick from landsacape to portrait
3) programs stored on the SD card, the icons would disapear after a soft reset, only leaving the generic blue and white .exe icon in there place
4)the phone is 2 thin and thus the sylus cannot be house in the housing like a htc device making it awfull to use, always saying to ur mates "DID U SEE WHERE I PUT MY STYLUS" lol
5) in landscape mode the wm start menu looks awfull and only takes up the middle section of the screen
6)there are black bars at the top and bottom of the screen, you dont notice when using a pitch black theme like "htc black//0 but use a colourful one and it looks like the top bar has dropped down a bit and it very annoying lol
i could prob remember more if you gave me a minute lol GET THE HTC HD 2

Thanks for the replies, looks like it will be the HD2 then given the responses.
Does anyone know what the battery life is like on the HD2 as I can only get approx 2 days from my current MDA compact IV (Diamond Touch) which is really annoying.
Also, now my mda is out of contract, may have a go at changing the rom. Which are the best roms for it??
Don't know if it is of any importance for you but TG01 has USB host and it was confirmed that mouse, keyboards and gamepads work very well with it. Don't know about flash drives though.

Check out XDA's Leo HD2 section of the forum. It has all the answers, info, & detailed threads for you...
BTW, I highly recommend the Leo!
HD2. no doubt
I can't have an opinion on the TG01, as I have not tried it. I own an iphone 3GS and recently replaced a touch HD with touch HD2.
The HD2 is, by far, superior to any phone I ever used. I have been with ETEN, and HTC for over 4 years, and iphone since the first generation. The [email protected] is the one. On any given category- it's a winner.
Screen is amazing. Capacitive (multi finger) like the iphone, but resolution is much better and 4.3" is a killer screen. GPS apps are killing the iphone in any comparison. Don't get fooled by 85,000 apps on the apple store. 84,850 of them will have no use for you, and the ones that are- you will find WM app that does the same.
Compatibility with Exchange server and outlook (actually all office apps) - HD2 wins big time again.
Keyboard- HD2 again. though the iphone is about the same, the HD2 has a wide screen. It helps a lot.
Reception - it's a phone after all - HD2 wins again (on AT&T network in the US). sound is crystal clear.
CPU speed- HD2 wins again. The snapdragon is a monster.
Battery life - OK, you can't win them all. The iphone has a better battery life, BUT I have two batteries and the HD2 wins again (with a cheat). Can't have the iphone battery out that easy.
BT - the HD2 wins again with great stereo that the 3GS can dream of having.
Music - no need for the stupid itune app. For me, it was annoying. I have 2 laptops and could never have itunes work right for me because you need to work around syncing your device. Not to mention I had hard time moving purchased songs from the ipod to the phone. You need to beg apple folks to support you after you have already paid. with the HD2 you simply put the MP3 on the SD card and you are done.
SD card- HD2 wins big time with 32G support, and replaceable cards. iphone is 16G at best and that's about it.
Camera- Until the HD2 I was thinking iphone has a great camera. Boy how wrong i could be. The HD2 with a dual LED flash wins again. Just make sure to have the camera bug fixed with a cab install and it is winning again.
Lastly- HTC is the Mercedes-Benz of phones. Apple came up with a great device but HTC eventually came out with a better one. Toshiba? Great TV sets, no doubts, but phones? They are far behind, IMO...

Keep in mind the HD2 came out a fair while after the TG01... I don't know if it's really fair to say Toshiba is behind, if anything HTC was behind for a little while in terms of hardware...
But of course right now I would say HD2 is the way to go...
Toshiba is old. I'd get an HD2!
