HTC Touch Now Available in India

The HTC touch has been launched here in India and it's about time. This is the latest Windows mobile phone that employs a similar touch screen experience as the iPhone. However, since all its functions can still be activated by using a stylus as well as your fingers, HTC has designed the Touch’s interface to be smart enough to actually distinguish the difference between the two. This technology is called TouchFLO.


“With the HTC Touch, access to your most commonly used content, contacts and features is only a simple finger flick away,” said Peter Chou, Chief Executive Officer of HTC. “Mobile phone makers have done a great job of cramming ever-more exciting features into ever-smaller phones. But the way in which one accesses these increasingly sophisticated features has not kept pace. That ends today with the HTC Touch.”

The Touch runs off the latest Windows Mobile 6 Professional and includes applications like Outlook Mobile, Office Mobile, Internet Explorer, Windows Live and also has the capabilities to run many third-party applications as well. It also supports Direct Push Email and HTML email. The HTC Touch is a GSM/GPRS/EDGE Tri-band enabled phone that also uses Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with A2DP compatibility.


It’s not a very large or heavy phone either with dimensions like 99.9 x 58 x 13.9 mm. and weighs in at 112g. It has a 2.8 inch LCD touchscreen with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels and 65k colors. The HTC touch is also equipped with 2.0 megapixel CMOS color camera and of course it has a video and an audio player that reads MP3 and Aac files. It has 64 MB RAM and 128 MB ROM and memory can be increased using microSD( (Transflash) cards.

The HTC Touch from HTC Asia will be available from next week in India from all authorized resellers at a price (inclusive of all taxes) of Rs. 19,900.
