Battery 1340 mAh
Built-in GPS receiver
288MB RAM
512 MB ROM

OMG~ Why can't do these sexy hot specs for Diamond? (I don't like the keyboard )

SE X1
this is the HTC version of the SE XPERIA X1, some of the specs are exactly the same, great device none the less

Hi
How big is resolution ?

is it just me or do all these photos look photo shopped? it seems like ive seen all these pics before as just the diamond...

why do the new devices from HTC use all VGA? Available software is mostly optimized for QVGA or am i wrong and all QVGA-Apps also work on this device

I know what PHone i want next now... lol...

when does this come to the US ???

it will probably be out in shops by mid summer
i noticed, sizewise, it's a little smaller than TyTN II
TyTN II is 112x59x19
Diamon Pro is 102x51x18
plus it weighs less: 165 gramms compared to tytn ii 190 g.

This is the perfect upgrade to my mogul

isnt this phone working on cdma only?
as far as I can remmber it is only cdma!
if not
I want 2

the problem is its VGA not QVGA

You guys know how this goes... This phone is a must for me, and as i saw it's kinda same for you. But i'm a poor little guy over here, someone should buy me one
I promise i will tell you how good it is... Mutually beneficial, isn't it?

EDIT: nvm.. changed my mind.. lol

i love the diamond and i was waiting for that but i like the qwerty think i'll go with this bad lad
thinks its only we t-mobile tho and their poo
i know voda is getting the diamond
have to wait and see

Which phone to replace my Universal

I have loved this phone but it is getting too tired and I need something up to date with more power and storage. Alas HTC don't seem to be doing anything comparable.
The latest Athena is too big for me and anyway no UK network seem to be providing it?
The Kaiser seems neat but the screen is too small, any thoughts anyone?
Jon

I have a Jasjar too but I dont think there is any replacement for it yet. Its a powerhouse truely meant for corporate people or the people who love to experiment.

Stick with JasJar (Uni, O2 Exec etc), give it a ROM upgrade, new body if you feel it looks too rough and enjoy. I know I am sticking with mine, especially considering I fully assembled it from parts, so now it's my baby in more ways than one

I hawe set the same question on another forum.
And the answer was the same.
No one has the will or space to carry Shift or Athena they are just too big.
Uni is the biggest thing i can wear in my pants expect my JoyStick offcourse.
I heard today that Htc is planning to release 10new devices this year so we can only hope there will be something like Universal Enchanced like they done whit Advantage.

I'm now using a T-mobile Vario III (Kaiser) as a replacement for my Exec and I'm very pleased with it. Yes the screen is smaller but it's improved clarity along with the general ease of use of the device means it's not too much of a disadvantage for me.
I'm still keeping my Exec though, it makes an excellent satnav and micro-laptop.

The only phone that can match the power and specs of the HTC Advantage X7510 & Athena as of now is the Samsung Omnia: http://samsungomnia.com/
You can check youtube for the videos and see how fast this baby works. Not to mention it supports DIVX and XVID movies out of the box, with a 5MP camera.
...

Since Samsung is contracted to make a phone that is quite similar to another phone the resemblance is uncanny isn't it?

Omnia have a latest PXA320 processor which default speed is up to 800 MHz, a 256 KB L2 cache, and a 32-bit DDR memory interface, that is more powerful with comparation of qualcomm bulls***s

how about my recommendation
Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1

The Sony Xperia is a solid, well designed phone, but one thing I noticed from watching all the videos of the demo use of the Xperia in youtube, IT IS REALLY VERY SLOW. So unless they can do something with the speed before it's release, they can't convince me to buy this phone.

wow...
its seem we got another friends from sony ericsson that hv window mobile as its os...

Hi - there's another discussion about this going on that's worth a read:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=378639

This could be a good option too
at least I like it much more than sony experia

Xperia or Samsung OMNIA?

Hi there people.
Which one do you people prefer?
I have a 16gb Omnia, but I love Xperia's 256mb RAM, Real Keyboard, Video @ 30fps VGA and the fact its built by HTC...
But happens that I love 5 megapixel camera
What whould you do in my place?

384mb RAM to be exact

really?
I didnt know. Some of this is specific to video like in Diamond?

xperia, no doubt in mind (well, maybe price)

Honestly, I feel the Omnia is severely overrated... I don't think it even deserves a spot in conversation with the Touch Pro, Xperia, etc. Nice phone? Sure. Past that, I don't know... It seems like an iPhone with no capacitive screen and windows mobile. When you take your stylus around, does it go in your purse right next to your tampons and lip gloss?

I have to agree with that, very girlish
but I dont use the stylus, I keep it in my wallet
and I dont think its overrated, great storage, great screen, great gps, great sound
but obviously you cant compare with HTC in build quality and style

The Omnia is actually a very good WinMo phone - probably the best out there at the moment. There is a reason why it seems to be going like hotcakes (I can't get one on Orange but would have no problems getting a Diamond).
Sure the lack of a stylus slot was a serious oversight (well outright dumb to be honest) but I have played around with this and a diamond and I would go with an Omnia everytime. Aesthetics are very subjective, but the phone has a large screen, is eminently pocketable, has a far better battery than the diamond, and isn't as laggy as the diamond. It has good build quality and feels good in the hand and importantly has very good performance and also a very good camera (with a flash )
With regards to this or an Xperia X1 - it comes down to what is more important - screen resolution and keyboard versus slightly bigger screen, massive storage without the need for an extra microSD card (although it does have an expansion slot) and a very good camera.
To be honest I would be happy with either - I need to play with an Xperia (lord knows when that will happen ) before making my final decision.

I seriously considered the Omnia, but I just can't get excited about a WQVGA screen. I went from a VGA screen (Axim xv50) to a QVGA when I decided I needed a converged phone/PDA, so I'm really, really eager to get back at least to the VGA resolution, and I'd love to get to WVGA. If the Omnia had the same screen as the X1 or the Touch HD, it would be very close to my ideal hardware.
(I'm confused about today's news about the Epix, though -- is Epix the new name for the Mirage, which was assumed to be AT&T's name for the Omnia, or are Epix and Mirage different products, so that there's still hope for Omnia appearing soon in AT&T's lineup?)

Toshiba TG01 with new windows interface

Like other WVGA devices it looks like this interface will be specific to WVGA. Very limiting that is....o well it does look "very nice" lol

cool sees similar to pointui2

nice! today screen Clock with Seconds!

And i love the 1ghz processor xD

Check this video out at Mobile Crunch. I have to say Im not that impressed.
http://www.mobilecrunch.com/2009/02/03/toshiba-tg01-fondled-on-video/

Interface looks pretty great on the video presentation I saw. I'm wondering if the 'stipes' will get a bit stale after a bit of usage? Looks pretty fluid and I'm all about that in my preferred interface. (whichever flavor I'm in to at the moment.) Will be interesting to see what comes out of it for our various devices.

now that i saw the iphone size comparison on msmobiles.com, i beginning to lose interest. this thing is HUGE!

thats nice really

agreed, im on board

I like the settings GUI
But the Toshiba Stripes menu uses way to small buttons (especially for switching clock, calendar etc.)
Sascha

I want, hope they release it in the US too. the top could a bit smaller but I still want one.

it's not a windows interface, it's just like TF2D and TF3D it's over the windows OS.

i totally agree it seems to b point UI ..

With that 1gb processor ps2 games should be doable as long as it has proper video and 3d drivers this time around.
what's the word on availability date?
price?
markets? etc
it would be a really nice upgrade to my athena.

There is already a thread on this subject:

clock
which clock plugin is this and could we use it for wm6 (htc prophet)?
thanks

Xperia X10 vs HTC Desire Video Camera Test!!!

Take a look at this youtube test Video youtube.com/watch?v=BYnTR-BGNHU[/url]
I for 1 am lucky i went 4 my x10 can always get the new updates and a gr8 camare

X10 is so much better
sharper, more vibrant

Better fone all 2gether

Yes video playback and picture quality is definetly better, but I feel overall Desire does seem to function better and with less bugs.
X10 looks better, screen size to my liking but too many bugs. Potential to be a cracking device but not quite there yet, where as Desire works better out of the box.

Hmm, curious how you have the same traffic passing at the same time in both those videos.... ;-)

It could be two persons, each with one phone ? If you look at the angle's and positions you can see that its not the exact same video...

itz the same person holding 2 phone in 2 hands...........

HAHAHAHAHAH...... thought that was obvious.. apparently not!... Yeah.. X10 camera rules..

My wife has X10, i myself have a desire.
They could at least have cleared the lense on the Desire, and maybe tweaked the settings at bit... ;-)
Alltogehther, X10 has at better camera, but the films we have made havent made that profound difference.
Biggest downside using the deisres videocam is the awful sound- its really crap.
