My Summarized Review on the HTC Touch Pro (HTC Raphael)

My 4th Windows Mobile Professional Smart Phone (Verizon Version e.g...Verizon xv6850) I have owned. And of course the most superior device I have owned so far.

• Pros:
  • 3.2 MP Camera With Flash Light & Auto Focus
  • Nice Size, Fits Nicely in the hand
  • 5 Row Qwerty Side Slide out HW Keyboard
  • 2.8 480x640 VGA TFT Screen
  • Light Sensor (which aids in auto screen adjustment, as well as other utilities that my use it for other things)
    & Tri-Axis Accelerometer ( motion / tilt sensor)
  • HTC Touch FLO 3D UI Navigation (Today Plug-in) is an great usable addition, Which includes a eye candy Contacts, Photo, weather, & Music player apps
  • HTC's Ext USB Works with Regular Mini USB
  • GPS support for 3rd party apps (after Official ROM Update)
    • GPS Fix for the original shipped ROM for the Verizon Touch Pro. Thanks to the wonderful works of lllboredlll over @ PPC Geeks (you only need this if you choose not to upgrade with the official ROM Update)
• Cons:
  • Battery life of the standard mah1340 battery is really bad, your likely to only get 8 to 12 hrs out of it in a day. But as expected for this powerful device
  • No FM Radio (on the Verizon Version)
  • RAM Downgraded (on the Verizon Version), not enough RAM
  • No IR Output (so you would not be able to use any remote control apps)
  • No front side camera on US models for video calling and self portrait
  • In Call Volume is very poor
    • Here is a fix to make the in Call Volume a lot louder. Thanks to badboy8813 over @ PPC Geeks
