    The Touch offers a wealth of features in a small package and the innovative Touch Cube interface allows users to take advantage of the TouchFLO screen. This screen technology gives users quick access to many one-touch features, such as text message and photos. The Touch's audio quality is not great, but this phone provides a solid smart phone that is perfect for on-the-go professionals to stay organized and in touch. The de... Read more

    We love the HTC Touch and all of its variations, including the two CDMA versions that are now available. In this review we look at the Touch Dual, a device that takes the original's best points and adds a real keypad and 3G connectivity. Read more

    HTC Touch clears the path for the WM6 Professional line of fashion smartphones. Dual is another way to say “slimmer-faster-newer.” The manufacturer should be given credit, not only for adding a slider, but for developing most elements of the interface too. TouchFlo marks serious progress making the phone more similar to the cult iPhone. We should not forget the HSDPA support either, which provides extremely fast internet, wherever there is coverage.

    HTC is on a hot streak. The company behind such smart phones as the and the has now released a PDA phone under its own brand called the . The handset is aptly named for its 2.8-inch touch screen and its touch-based user interface. Though I like the device's general concept, a few kinks prevent the Touch from being a great phone.

    I don't think that I have to say anything more about the HTC Touch which got its name from HTC's new TouchFLO user interface ( see our video view here ) except that this (formerly known) Pocket PC Phone Edition is really small: A combined O2 Xda nova/HTC Touch review will follow soon.

    Alright, between the touch and the iphone, it's the iphone for me. I work for at&t and I must admit the touch is almost nect to nect with the iphone in almost every aspect. Rate plan ( cost ); Iphone will cost you at least $60 that is, voice and data. Touch, well what I'm paying is about $40, now which side you're on...lol...not to mention the device retail price. Interface; I gotta give it to the touch. There is so much much you can do with the touch interface. Music... Read more

    The HTC Touch is a good all-around phone with touch screen capability that is above average for its class. But, the high price and poor input method are difficult to come by. The only advantage this phone has over the iPhone is that it runs WM6 and is unlocked. Otherwise, the touch interface is no match to the iPhone that has multi-touch user interface with a large keyboard. Read more
