My review of the HTC TyTn II is up at The Gadgeteer. In short, I like it. It’s a worthy upgrade from the original, with better performance, a solid feel, internal GPS, and many small improvements and fixes. It’s good enough to tide me over until Apple makes an iPhone I actually want, at least…
As I’ve mentioned in some of my previous posts (here and here for example) I’ve been looking for the perfect mobile device, and not finding one. At some point today UPS will be dropping off a fresh new HTC TyTn II. I already know it isn’t perfect, but it is a nice incremental upgrade to the TyTn I’ve been using since last fall.
The TyTn II upgrades the original model in a number of ways. It has a new CPU (still the same 400 MHz clock as before, but with a secondary core and acceleration for 3D and Java) and twice the internal memory, and runs Windows Mobile 6 out of the box. The screen now flips up to an angle for better viewing while you use the keyboard. The camera has been upgraded to 3 megapixels. And last but certainly not least, it has an internal GPS which works both on and off the mobile network.
I won’t say more about it here yet, because I’ll be reviewing it for The Gadgeteer — look for my review soon, perhaps next week. In the meantime, you can catch up by reading my Gadgeteer review of the TyTn from last year.
