HTC Touch Pro 2 Review

The HTC Touch Pro 2 is definitely a mobile phone that is meant for the business user. There is no doubt that this phone is a little bulky, but its great performance and many features could be just what you are looking for.

Although the HTC Touch Pro 2 is bigger than other smartphones, its design is still very attractive. This phone comes in silver casing with a mirrored face and measures 4.57-inches by 2.33-inches wide, and is 0.68 inch thick, weighing 6.61 ounces. The appearance of the Touch Pro 2 does seem to be a lot bigger than the Nokia N97, but when you hold it in your hand you can definitely tell that it is heaver and bulkier.

Even though you will find this smartphone to be bigger and heaver, you’ll also find that the construction of this phone is very high quality. It simply doesn’t have the cheap plastic feel that you find with many other brands.

One of the most attractive features of the Touch Pro 2 is its large touchscreen. The display measures 3.6-inchs and has a 65,000-color output, with a 480×800-pixel resolution. With this screen you can view pictures in amazingly sharp and clear color, plus reading is much easier with the larger display. The touchscreen of this phone is very responsive making it easy to navigate through applications, plus you get a slide out QWERTY keyboard, which allows for simple texting and emailing. The keys are wide enough, that unless you have very large fingers, using the keyboard should be no problem at all.

Some of the features that make the HTC Touch Pro 2 so popular with power users and business professionals alike include quad-band world roaming, speed dial, and smart dialing, as well as voice commands. You will also get three-way calling, a proximity sensor, and text, in addition to multimedia messaging. Your communication needs are definitely covered with this mobile phone.

For a great Internet experience you get the Opera mobile web browser, and Internet Explorer Mobile is also included. Like most smartphones of today, there is also built in GPS, plus with Google Maps installed you can get turn-by-turn directions through text. If you prefer another type of GPS navigation service you always have the option of subscribing to a GPS service.

For business users the HTC Touch Pro 2 makes it easy to stay productive no matter where you are with the Microsoft Office Mobile Suite. With this feature you can view and edit World and Excel documents, plus you can view PowerPoint presentations.

Of course you get multimedia extras such as a 3.2-megapixel camera with video recording capabilities, as well as a music and video player.

Getting a deal on one of these smartphones isn’t too difficult if you look into a HTC Touch Pro 2 contract.
