I found this interesting review on how HTC Diamond’s look-n-feel fares when compared to iPhone 3G. This review is on Electronista. Pretty unbiased review I must say. Here are few highlights that is worthwhile mentioning:

htctouchdiamond-iphone-india Lets compare HTC diamond with iPhone 3G

  • HTC has resisted the urge to enlarge the 2.8-inch screen of the first Touch simply for the sake of one-upping the iPhone or other devices stretching out to 3.5 inches; because of this, the Diamond has a much smaller surface area than its rival, and seems suited to smaller pockets on the whole.
  • To make HTC Diamond smaller in shape, the Diamond bulks up slightly to 0.55 inches thick versus the iPhone’s 0.48. On paper, this should matter little, but the tapered edges of the Apple handset certainly make it feel more substantial.
  • HTC ought to jump from resistive touchscreens to a more sensitive capacitive display like that of the iPhone; while patents likely stop HTC from using multi-touch, it’s still too difficult to use flicking motions or other more intuitive gestures.

    About Me

    Hi, I have been using this awesome invention called iPhone in Bangalore, India from November 2007 and have gone nutzzz over this.
    Nuts to an extent that I have started my own blog on iPhone. I will be covering various developments happening around Apple iPhone. Will cover everything and anything which is even remotely connected to the iPhone. But will put more emphasis on iPhone news and buzz from an Indian perspective.
