TYTN – Does it live up to its name?
Have htc produced a giant among Smartphones or just another mobile computer pretender.
Having used the TYTN for some while now I have to say that it is a very competent product. It has good overall features, performance and usability, combined with a pleasing appearance for a device format that is always going to be a challenge to the designers. It is large enough to have useable screen without being ridiculously large for a mobile phone. It performs faultlessly as a phone and as a Mobile 5 device, which is what you would expect from HTC. The connectivity options are impressive but the Comm manager sometime struggles to arbitrate when multiple choices are available between WIFI, mobile data and Bluetooth. The WIFI also has a rather limited range presumably due to the small format limiting the aerial size. The biggest disappointment though is the camera option. The quality of the picture image and colour is not what you would expect from a two mega pixel device.
This is overall a very capable Smartphone with good features and excellent connectivity, but let down mainly by the poor camera quality.
