HTC Touch

Conclusion
The phone is supposed to give you approximately 5 hours of talktime according to the manual. But it manages only 2 1/2. This is bad considering it's a business phone. However, you can reduce the backlight and save some battery.

It's a well known fact that HTC has been behind the scene for good Windows Mobile phones in the market, especially in the OEM segment. Why then, should one contend with something like the Touch? If you are seriously looking for a better option, then the Asus P535 would be a better. With a couple of grand more and an option for free upgrade to Windows Mobile 6, you stand a better chance. HTC gives you a feeling of great innovation, but a slow machine makes it all seem worthless.
