Worth moving to Diamond2?

[bnm7bnm]

Hello all

I have option to buy the Diamond2 in UK in a week as it comes out, its very tempting but I'm not sure cause the Diamond2 is not so much better than my Cruise as I see. I don't want devices like Omnia HD or Toshiba G01 cause they are very big & don't want to leave this forum.

Diamond2 pro's over the Cruise:
-looks better + steel
-size, lightness & weight
-little bit faster CPU (I don't know about the video & graphics drivers)
-very fast response as never seen on HTC devices (rumor?)
-screen size & resolution
-more ram & rom
-5mp camera (not much difference from my 3mp)
-TF3D 2 (will be ported sooner or later to qvga)
-accelerometer


Obvious Diamond2 is better device but the differences are minor and the most annoying thing is that devices like the old Omnia maybe faster (i read that D2 response so fast as never seen on HTC devices - is it rumor?)
Anyway no device worth buying without the support like this forum so don't know if Diamond2 worth buying or keep waiting for HTC to make something really good...

Please help me decide any opinions, thoughts or advices are welcomed!

Well, I have just decided to do exactly the same and ordered mine. What makes it easy for me is that I'm changing jobs, so I have to return my company Cruise anyway. I think the Diamond2 is way better looking and the screen is much bigger and VGA. TF3D will not be ported to QVGA I think. The cruise just can't handle the 3D graphics. Touch HD's TF3D wasn't ported to the Cruise either in an every day working manner.

I think the Omnia and Xperia are just plain ugly, when it comes to the finishing of the housing, buttons, edges around the screen etc. I don't need a keyboard, so the TP2 is just needlessly thicker and more expensive for me. HD is just too big for me, so I end up with the D2.
