Summary
htc touch cruise review: HTC improves on recent releases by including 3G and Wi-Fi connectivity in the Cruise. The slender form, GPS and Windows Mobile 6 make the HTC Cruise a very appealing PDA phone.

Attractive looking handset, HSDPA and Wi-Fi, Excellent TouchFlo interface, Bundled navigation software and accessories, Average processing, Below average battery life, Full touchscreen input won't appeal to everyone

Cons
Average processing, Below average battery life, Full touchscreen input won't appeal to everyone

Pros
Attractive looking handset, HSDPA and Wi-Fi, Excellent TouchFlo interface, Bundled navigation software and accessories

Cons
Average processing, Below average battery life, Full touchscreen input won't appeal to everyone

Verdict
The Cruise is our favourite of the current HTC line-up and compares well to most of the competition. HTC does a good job of making the touchscreen experience easy to use, however, it won't be for everyone.

Summary
The HTC Touch's claim to fame is its heavily modified WM (Windows Mobile) interface which makes it more convenient to get basic tasks done. The original Touch has been a hit so far, thanks to its great design and low price, and we won't be surprised ...

Summary
Pocket PCs have been keeping us busy these days. Just as we gave you LG KS20, it's time for our one-on-one with the HTC Touch Cruise. And hey, are those workhorses getting sexier or what. As one of our readers sharply observed, those devices just...

Pros
Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE ; 3G with HSDPA ; 400MHz Qualcomm processor ; 128MB of RAM ; 2.8" 65K color touchscreen TFT display with QVGA resolution ; Integrated Qualcomm GPS receiver ; TomTom satnav software pre-bundled, one free map included ; Wi-Fi 802 ...

Cons
No hardware keypad ; Inadequate video playback capabilities ; Paint starts to peel off very quickly ; Display image quality is a bit disappointing and is practically illegible under direct sunlight ; Photo processing issues

Verdict
HTC Touch Cruise is surely one of the most interesting Windows Mobile Pro devices to hit the shelves recently. It features the new version of HTC's TouchFLO interface and one of the heaviest feature sets in the PocketPC class. It is very close in ...

Summary
The Touch Cruise is not a bad take on a feature-crammed smartphone, but there is stiff competition out there.…

Pros
HTCÂ ; s characteristic TouchFLO look is here, and there is a strong range of features

Cons
We didn't find the flat screen as responsive to touch as we would like

Verdict
The Touch Cruise is not a bad take on a feature-crammed smartphone, but there is stiff competition out there.

Summary
The side panels as well as the rear are made of soft-touch plastic, thanks to this the Cruise delivers a nice tactile feel. Its spines also feature chrome-like plastic insets, which is similar to the P3300, the first device where HTC implemented them.

Summary
Here is the new device of HTC. Not just the handling but the services also get a mark five!

Verdict
The phone provided by the XXL PC arrived in a high-quality box as it's expected. We can describe the accessories with the word 'usual', charger, data cable, stereo headset, case, manual, CD, that's what we get for our money.

Summary
Even though HTC's new TouchFLO 3D devices are starting to ship, its still worth looking at devices like Touch Cruise, with its AF camera, HSDPA data, and built-in GPS. Our UK man, Russell, puts the phone through its paces for us in this in-depth review.

Summary
The HTC Touch Cruise is a powerful phone, but does it deliver on all counts? Read on to find out.

Pros
HTC Today Screen, One-handed/Single Finger Usage, Wi-Fi, GPS, Good screen (2.8-inch), 3MP Camera with autofocus

Cons
Poor GPS (MapKing), Problems with camera module, Sluggish interface at times (TouchFLO), Expensive

Verdict
The HTC Touch Cruise sells for around Rs. 28,500 with a one-year warranty. The phone, to out it simply, doesn't seem really worth it in India given that GPS is still in the infant stage here. If you want a better GPS phone I suggest the Nokia 6110 ...

Summary
The HTC Touch Cruise has wireless radios bursting at the seams. It starts with quad-band GSM to keep you connected all around the world. It ramps up the speed with tri-band UMTS (850/1900/2100) with HSDPA and HSUPA connectivity...

Verdict
I guess HTC is really wanting to push their Touch branding. It started with the garden variety HTC Touch. Then they plunked in a vertical slider to produce the HTC Touch Dual. Now, the Taiwanese devicemaker has apparently joined the ranks of ...
