HTC Touch Pro2 review
Network and connections
HTC launches a new successful Business Phone onto the market, with great qualities and potential. Starting with the technical features, we can say that this is a GSM Quadband, capable of guaranteeing truly excellent coverage in any condition. This is also made possible thanks to UMTS network support, usable in Dual Mode. Connectivity with other devices is convenient thanks to Bluetooth, or via the USB 2.0 cable. With the Touch Pro 2 it is also possible to browse the Internet: the internal modem handles data traffic with HSDPA, while the HTML browser opens pages quickly.
Design and multimedia
Right from its design, this Smartphone offers a distinctive feel. The surfaces are satin-finished, in classic silver color with black inserts. The edges are rounded and clean, so as to provide an optimal grip. The front is entirely occupied by the display, a 3.6-inch TFT, capable of displaying up to 65,000 colors. It is also equipped with Touch Screen technology, which allows truly quick and convenient management of the device. But that's not all, because the Touch Pro 2 amazes with its sliding opening, which allows you to tilt the screen and reveal an extended QWERTY keyboard underneath.
Main features
Like the whole great HTC family, the Touch Pro 2 is also equipped with the Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional platform, with a free upgrade to the more current version. The 528 MHz processor allows you to fully exploit processing potential, for fast and complete applications without compromises. Indeed, in addition to the classic features such as contacts, alarm clock, calendar and calculator, plenty of room is left for customization, with support for Office documents and PDF. Simplified writing makes composing texts easier, so you can also easily send work E-mails. Touch or stylus management is perfect, thanks to the improved TouchFLO 3D technology. Calls boast perfect audio, thanks to a dedicated processor for sound cleaning. With a dedicated camera, video calls are also supported.
Entertainment and multimedia
HTC's incredible offering is completed by a good multimedia package. Here then is the 3.2 megapixel camera, which allows you to take good quality photographs, as well as short videos. The 128 MB RAM memory allows for good storage capacity. However, it is possible to expand the memory without any problems via microSD type cards. This way you can always carry your favorite music with you, to be played back comfortably thanks to the multimedia player. There is also support for GPS satellite signals, to use the Touch Pro 2 as a navigator. The lithium battery life is remarkable, guaranteeing an autonomy of 348 hours in Stand-by.
