First Impressions|HTC Touch 3G

IMG_0001

Last Saturday I went to Megamall with Chinang and traded-in my old palm Treo 750 to get a discount on an HTC device. I was intending to get the 1st HTC Touch for just 10,000PhP but the shops ran out of stock. I decided to get the HTC Touch 3G. I’ll be putting it thru the paces and post a proper review [hopefully] in a week or so.

The specs are ok for any modern smartphone. I am not happy that this device has no auto focus and 3.5mm jack, but my main gripe is the lack of buttons. This is the barest device I’ve ever owned. The screen is very bright and ultra responsive. More to come as I use it some more.
