HTC has now released its latest touch-gadget and its none other than HTC Touch Diamond , it was annouced on may 6 at HTC Even which was held in London. The gadget is so kool that if you are a fan of HTC gadgets you will literally drool over to see it. HTC brings the prism look on the back like that of Nokia Prism.

HTC features the latest Touch 3D interface (codename HTC Manila). It is the first of its kind which is fully controllable through touch gestures even though it runs on Windows Mobile which is not considered a very touch-friendly OS.

When it comes to the features and specifications of HTC Touch Diamond, the phone looks very stylish but the processing speed of the device might not be equivalent to what users are expecting. It does not feature multi-touch technology so we cant call it as an iPhone competitor which is totally out of the question.

So What we have is

  • A 2.8-inch VGA display, a built-in accelerometer which allows screen auto rotation.
  • A GPS receiver,
  • A 3.2 megapixel auto focus camera.
  • A 4GB Memory,
  • An FM Radio
  • Bluetooth 2.0.
  • Wi-Fi
  • powered by Windows Mobile 6.1,
  • 528 MHz Processor
  • 192 MB DDR RAM.

Perhaps not the iPhone, but the HTC Touch Diamond will surely give Sony Xperia a tough competition in the market now as both are powered by Windows Mobile.
