HTC pure is the first mobile phone to come in packaged with the new Windows Mobile 6.5 which promises a better OS with more on features and applications. The web browser of the phone is more powerful and better than earlier HTC phones but it still leaves a lot to be desired. Other useful services include Microsoft application store and a backup service called My Phone. If your phone gets lost or stolen you can remotely erase or wipe the data on the phone but it will remain safe on the company’s website thanks to the My Phone feature. Browsing has been improved on this phone and so is the multimedia but it is still not at par with what other players give in the market. But when it comes to intra competition we would say that this is the best HTC phone. The display of the HTC Pure is WVGA and it is 3.2 inch big which gives you a display of 400X800. The size and the resolution go well with the phone and give you lot of room for icons when  [...]

The most important feature of the phone is ruggedness. The phone is made to stand toughest of tests and it really lives up to what is boasted on the box of the phone. The phone is water proof and shock proof. We actually put the phone in a bucket of water and tried calling, the phone rang and it was not affected by water. This is a good phone for divers or people who love swimming. But we very much doubt if you would be needing phone when you are in there. Besides this the phone is shock proof, we threw the phone from second storey and yet the phone was shinning all the way through.

The SIM got out of the place, we guess because we got message of “insert SIM” on the display once we picked up the phone back. You can gift this phone to your kids, no matter how badly they use it the device won’t be affected. The screen is the most delicate part of the phone and  [...]

There are chances that you haven’t heard Garmin making mobile phones (and we don’t blame you if you haven’t) and Garmin announced that it would be making a smart phone but it was delayed time and again but here we are finally with the product. Garmin makes GPS devices and looking at this phone we think that it should stay with GPS only, use this phone for sometime and you will understand what we are talking about. To start with this phone looks awful and the home screen of the phone makes things worse. We were turned off by the over sized icons of the screen. The other side of the screen which has smaller icons can be scrolled up and down to access more applications. This reminded of Samsung’s TouchWiz interface but the icons cannot be dragged out of the band to the desktop of the phone. The display of the screen is 3.5 inch big and gives a resolution of 272x480 which maybe the reason behind the big icons on the screen. A bigger  [...]
