HTC TyTN II - An Excellent Mobile Tool
I have had the HTC TyTN II for one week now and I am totally pleased with my purchase. The hardware is excellent. I have read many reviews indicating that the product is heavy and bulky. However, my impression is that it is the right size and has a solid built and feel. When in use or placed in the supplied belt pouch for carrying around the weight and size have not been an issue.
The only minor improvements I would like to see would be enhanced battery life and possibly a flash for the camera. From my initial experience the battery can last approximately 2 days with moderate phone and SMS usage together with the blue-tooth activated for about 50% of the time for hands-free and intermittent WiFi usage. However, I think this is probably a limitation of current battery technology as the phone is loaded with potentially energy hungry features and a bigger battery would add size and weight to the device.
The only item I have not yet tested fully is the GPS. However, I expect that this will work as well as the other features.
The keyboard and tilt screen perform flawlessly switching from 'portrait' to 'landscape' when the keyboard is deployed. The switch is normally very smooth and quick. However, there was a noticeable delay when I was viewing a large PDF file.
The 'Comm Manager' allows all of the communication options to be quickly activated / deactivated and settings to be changed.
All in all I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for an 'all-in-one' PDA / Smartphone that is running Windows Mobile 6.
