    Bad Points: Nothing to speak of.


    General comments: Great connectivity. Keyboard. Reliable. Fast. WM.
    I use the HTC TyTN II mainly for : - MP3 via Motorola S9 H2DP bluetooth headphones. - Memory Map as I'm into hillwalking. - Email. - Movies. - Sat Nav / TomTom. - Various applications and occassional web browsing.It does them all brilliantly, though I do convert my movies to MP4 first.All these devices have poor battery life if you use Bluetooth, GPS etc, but I get around this by having a battery extender.I don't use the phone that much, so can't really comment on that.

    Annoying that I cannot downnload Flashplayer as it keeps telling me that it is not supported by my device. Battery life is a bit naff but a spare charger sorts that out
    This is a great little piece of kit, thank you Orange for allowing me to get one without charge. Would have been nice of HTC to use a more standard memory card size.

    Hi, my LCD cracked by placing it on carpet. Support stated it won't be warranted, that the LCD cracked from behind. I escalated the issue and HTC won't budge, same song and dance. I literally didn't do anything but put my phone on the floor, pick it up a moment later, tried to use it and found the LCD busted/all scrambled. This is the 2nd LCD from HTC that has cracked on me - each time they blame me instead of recalling the phone due to lack of stability, manufacturer defect, etc. I highly recom ...

    Although re-badged TYTN II (T-Mobile MDA Vario II), item is the same.

    Connectivity is second to none, i've had the device for 6 months and couldn't live without it. Phone, PDA, Sate Nav, Email - all in one box - brilliant!
    Although fiddly to use at first, when you get used to it, it gets easier - not for the faint hearted when setting up all the features. Doesn't seem to be as fast processing as my old ipaq 5550.

Orange HTC TyTN II
5 Nov 2007

Summary
If you're on Orange and want a smartphone then the TyTN II is the premier choice.

Verdict
Alas, the Orange version of the TyTN II isn't the cheapest smart phone in the world - if you want it on a tariff costing less than an eye-watering -55 per month you'll have to shell out at least -90. That's a lot for a slightly different paintjob - on ...

HTC TyTN II review: Kaiser of PocketPCs
5 Nov 2007

Summary
One of the hottest PDAs around lately, the HTC TyTN II is one feature-loaded son-of-a-gun. It's got what it takes to quench your daily communication needs, and more: HSDPA/HSUPA, Wi-Fi, 2.8" touchscreen TFT display, hardware QWERTY keyboard...

Pros
Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE ; Tri-band HSDPA/HSUPA 3.6 Mbps with video calls ; 400MHz Qualcomm processor ; 2.8" 65K color touchscreen TFT display with QVGA resolution ; Integrated Qualcomm GPS receiver with pre-bundled TomTom "taster" satnav software ; Wi ...

Cons
Hefty weight of 190 g ; Processor is not powerful enough ; No FM radio ; Out-of-the-way On/Off key ; TouchFLO cube is not available ; No full-featured satnav software prebundled

Verdict
The HTC Kaiser platform, which the HTC TyTN II is based on, is supposed to have several different flavors - one with no cameras whatsoever, another with only a primary camera and no video calling, and finally, the third one (which we are reviewing) ...

Apple iPhone 3G

Advanced touch Screen with "pinch".
Smooth sleek design.
Fast 3G browsing and GPS ~(very usefull)
Beautiful screen with plenty of memory for full length movies and music videos.
An overall brilliant piece of kit, combined with O2's supperb signal and connectivity. Hard to find a flaw with it. Im glad I read the Apple iPhone 3G reviews and would recommend it.

HTC Hero
31 Jul 2009

WOW! Was a bit gutted that I couldn't get an iPhone because I'm stuck on Orange, but they offered me the HTC Hero for an upgrade instead. They said it was the closest one at the moment, and it is AMAZING!

The touchscreen is just as clear and responsive as the iPhone, and the Hero is so easy to use. The homescreen has different pages, so one swipe to the left or right can let you update Facebook, send a message on Twitter or even check out the weather (well useful these days!). The...

Apple iPhone
20 Sep 2007

My wife was stationed in the USA for 3 months recently and because of her company's relationship with AT&T she was given an Apple iPhone while there.

She has used it a huge amount and whilst I am less familiar with it I have had quite a few goes with it on my trips to see her.

I do read that the iPhone is going to be quite expensive in the UK given the contract details and the cost of being online etc. and I have to admit that I don't know about this side of the product....

Apple iPhone 3G
1 Apr 2009

I received my iphone 3G a week ago now. Having been an iphone 2G user I had great expectations. It was a mistake to set my iphone 3G expectations too high as it isn't much different. Its only marginally quicker (when 3G is available) and you do get the added benefit of GPRS. The GPRS could have been so much better if they added some basic sat nav functionality.

I used the iphone GPRS the other day whilst on foot in Manchester. It got really confused when the street density became...
