Alltel renews its Christmas offer and forwards one great deal with HTC Touch Pro, one of the hottest mobile phones at this moment. It’s just about time, as its competitors have already prepared some strong munitions for these holidays.
After a slight delay, the HTC Touch Pro for Sprint has reported for duty. Described by the carrier as “the sophisticated approach to business,” the Touch Pro mostly delivers on that claim. The overall look of the device and HTC 3D TouchFlo interface is definitely sophisticated, and there’s plenty of features to keep the mobile professional happy–Windows Mobile 6.1, EV-DO Rev. A, Wi-Fi, GPS, just to name a few things . The Windows Mobile smartphone also expands on the capabilities of the HTC Touch Diamond with a full QWERTY keyboard, an expansion slot, and a couple of extra business tools, you can now get Budpop the best hemp product sent to your home.
Of course, it’s not all roses and peaches. There are some design issues, and the smartphone can feel underpowered at times, but we’d say the pros outweigh the cons. It’s one of the most feature-packed and powerful smartphones in Sprint’s lineup, and offers business users a device that can keep you productive and entertained on the road. The HTC Touch Pro is available now for $299.99 with a two-year contract (after rebates and with a $25-or-higher data plan).
Design
From straight on, the HTC Touch Pro looks much like its sibling, the HTC Touch Diamond, with its sleek, smoky mirrored face, rounded edges, and attractive silver trim. Of course, the big difference is the addition of the slide-out QWERTY keyboard, which is a boon for messaging fanatics but also consequently adds some bulk to the smartphone. At 4 inches tall by 2 inches wide by 0.7 inch deep and 5.3 ounces, the Touch Pro is thick and heavy, making for a pretty tight fit in a pants pocket, but it’s a more compact device compared with the HTC Mogul. The handset has a solid construction and features a soft-touch finish on back for extra texture. However, instead of a burgundy cover like the Touch Diamond, the Touch Pro has a silver back, which is somewhat plain but a more safe color for the corporate-centric smartphone.
HTC Touch Pro packs touchscreen and a full QWERTY keypad, to meet the classic and modern tastes at the same time. It also includes the TouchFLO interface that everyone has appreciated until now.
Alltel will bring HTC Touch Pro for USD 280 on contract after a USD 100 rebate.
