HTC Phones?

Robert · 15-01-2008, 23:35

I'm due an upgrade in a few months and I have been considering the N95 8gb or N82. Now I've seen the HTC phones...do they challenge the N series? Things I need:

Good browser
Good battery
Good for text
Slick menu system
Good call quality

I popped in to orange and saw my friend...he said the tytn "wasn't a good normal phone"...?

Which HTC phone?

The HTC Kaiser is very good indeed. Depends which phone you are looking at though.

Is it called the Kaiser or the Tytn 2 or what?

As above, depends, but in my case - Browser, yes. Battery, seems so, though 3G sucks the life out. Text - definitely. I've sent more texts in the 7 months I've had my TYTN than the sum total sent on all previous phones I've ever owned. Menu - I'm stuck on WM5 - newer phones are better.

Known as the HTC Kaiser, HTC TyTN II, XDA Stella, MDA Vairo III amongst many others.

TyTN II and Kaiser appear to be used interchangeably. Like most HTC phones they have numerous names and versions.

And yes, that one is very good. It's the upgrade from what I've got.

So if this really is better than the N95...what would be the best network to have it on?

Mark · 15-01-2008, 23:59

Just to be clear on my views, I didn't say it was better. I have zero experience of the N95 so can't make a comparison.

Not used a Nokia since the 3310....

Always been using PDA phone since then. However, apart from the HTC Universal *which is pretty big* the Kaiser is imho the best they do.

Now...the only issue I have is size and how it compares to the N95 8gb.
