HTC Touch Pro2 Vs HTC Magic

---

Hi i hope this will put those minds at rest for the ones that are not sure htc magic or htc touch pro2 read on.

Well i ordered my htc magic recieved it next day opened the box a very nice well made phone apart from being abit plastiky all over.

Using the phone was great you cant go wrong with the android software it really is a dream to use espeacially all the free apps at your disposal.

Well after 2 days this phone started to wear off me it was all down to the battrey irm afraid i was charging it up after each day not a good start.

I decided to finally send it back on a 14 day return i then ordered the HTC Touch pro2.

Now when i opened the box i was very impressed with the build quality compared to that of the htc magic it just blows it away by a mile.

Pure time quality and efort went into making this handset not just rushed of the trackline.

The operating system is wm 6.1 though but a free upgrade from htc to 6.5 is imminent any day now.

The interface feels alot smoother than previus handsets i had ie htc diamond the touch flow system is faster but the most important ascpect about this handset is great for battrey life.

My first full charge lasting 3 full days thats with moderate useage as i did the same with the htc magic but that depleted in just 1 day.

Tomtom 7 works great on this htc touch pro2 open the screen out and rest it on the dashboard better than the tomtom devices anyday.

So now you can see why i chose the htc pro2 over the htc magic android is great dont get me wrong but the battrey dying so quickly does not have a long lasting apeal to the handset.

I bet you will soon get tiredsome of recharging the handset each day where as the htc touch pro 2 can go on for days without charging.

Also Touch Pro2 will have android soon it is possible just a matter of time.

The htc touch pro2 was my choice due to battrey lasting 3 days and build quality and the fact that android is a possibility soon on this handset so i have the best of both worlds.

It beats the google phone htc magic hands down at its own game.

I hope this puts all those minds at rest any questions please do not hesitate in contacting me or pm me but for now i give the HTC Touch Pro2 smartphone of the year 2009 anyday.

PS if i did not help in changing your mind irm sure this guy will have fun.

nice, i'm glad you posted this, and it's nice to hear you actually played with both phones so you can compare.

One thing I would like to hear your thoughts on is the size of the device.

The size difference between the phones are quite different and that's what's hindering me between either phones

size comparison between both phones well the htc magic is thin but tall and the touch pro2 is slightly thicker but you hardly notice the thickness between the both the magic feels very plastiky the pro feels like well a phone a very well made phone so size comparison between the both there is not much difference at all having used both devices but expect the touch pro to be slightly heavier and thicker.

OMG, my head hurts. Please use paragraphs and spaces...

^I'm also dizzy from reading this but, thanks for the comparison

WinMo is far superiour. LOL @ any other mobile OSs.

I don't like the design of the Magic. There is something repuslive in it. No keyboard = FAIL !!!!

Thanks for the review as well, but please use paragraphs and periods in your subsequent posts...

This is exactly what I was asking myself. I have been leaning towards touch pro 2 but did not know if laying out the extra $$$ was going to be worth it. I believe you have answered that question, thanks.

I have had or still do have: N95, Wing, 8525, Iphone, G1, Shadow, Blackberry 8320, Javelin, Storm, Touch Pro1, Tilt and probably others that just isn't coming to mind right now.

Now I have the Rhoduim and it is the best device I have owned to date, by far. Accept the battery cover could be better.

TP2!!!
Just 2 reasons: hardware keyboard and WM
