Its predecessor
It does not need a memory card slot because of its 4 GB internal storage.
It has a higher VGA display resolution than its predecessor or the iPhone.
This is a great looking touch interface phone and all of the Windows Mobile bells and whistles

TouchFLO 3D is good enough to compete with Apple’s acclaimed interface
The Diamond is the perfect size and weight

The editors didn't like
The screen attracts a lot of fingerprints making it look oily and unclean.
I have to complain about the Weather program yet again…there
I’m done
Battery life seems worse than expected
Hope that 4GB is enough for you
As there is no expansion slot
Occasionally sluggish interface
Small keyboard
Extremely slow
To the point of being unusable
Buggy. Poor battery life. Lacks 3G support. No memory card slot. TouchFLO interface is balky. Awful speakerphone.
The 3D TouchFLO interface is not very user friendly.Look and Feel...
Keyboard blocks some menus
Expensive
Mediocre battery life
No microSD slot
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).
Very expensive
Typing a challenge on small touchscreen
Keyboard
So-so phone reception
No SD Card slot
Still a "confused" UI
Requires switches between dpad
Finger
And stylus input.
Default "Fast Sleep" mode during a call disables the Call End button
Less than stellar battery life
Some of the TouchFLO 3D animations are too slow
Finger smudges all over
Current 3G model only works on 900/2100Mhz networks (I.E. Not AT&T)
No Start/O...
Sluggish performance at times
No expansion card slot
Small QWERTY onscreen keyboard
Stylus is a virtual requirement for accessing certain parts of the user interface
Landscape mode is underutilized and landscape QWERTY availability is far too rare
Some minor integration flaws between Windows Mobile 6.1 and TouchFLO 3D
No memory exp...
Its too expensive. The smartphone is also slow.
Molasses-slow performance
Dated menus under TouchFLO
Interface requires stylus
*
The Touch Diamond is sluggish and call quality is subpar. The TouchFLO interface has a bit of a learning curve
And theres no expansion slot.
While performance is greatly improved over the unlocked Touch Diamond
Theres still some sluggishness. The virtual keyboard is cramped and may give some users problems. The Touch Diamond also doesnt offer an expansion slot.
Despite more memory
It still lags at time
HTC music player needs work
Concerns about reception
At least for now
Software glitches
Glossy body
Odd dpad
No U.S. 3G
Thicker and heavier than the original
TouchFLO 3D is only skin deep
Keyboard is still a pain to use
Which makes messaging and productivity apps more difficult. Reception problems hurt data-intensive services
Molasses-slow performance, Dated menus under TouchFLO, Interface requires stylus, *
Despite warm initial impressions of both the phone and its TouchFLO interface, extended use proved that the hardware inside wasn’t ready to handle such a graphically heavy system running on a dated architecture like Windows Mobile 6.1. Short of ...

As a whole, HTC did a good job when designing this phone and the TouchFLO 3D interface. Although there are a few things we’d change (like adding a 3.5mm audio jack and a microSD slot), none of these things are deal breakers. Assuming you can live wi...
Abstract: These days it's impossible to review a touchscreen phone without comparing it to the iPhone. So, is the HTC Touch Diamond a true competitor for Apple? Well, for starters the Diamond is not entirely touch, but features a five-way joypad and call button...
You will have to pardon me if I don't come off as extra excited about the Diamond. Yes, the screen and browser are unbelievable in person. But the usability after getting past TouchFLO 3D, limiting battery life, and way too twitchy motion sensor leave...
On paper, the Touch Diamond promises the cellular equivalent of 007-level debonair style and efficiency, but it feels more like a junior agent-in-training in the end. Its remarkably capable with its Windows Mobile operating system, but the TouchFLO i...

Abstract: With its ultra sharp stunning VGA screen, sleek construction, fabulous TouchFLO 3D interface and exquisite details, it isnt a wonder so many of us just fell in love with the original HTC Touch Diamond. However, as with many new phones, it didnt d...
