Product name	Samsung SGH-i780	HTC Touch Cruise	HTC Touch Dual	HTC Touch (2nd generation)	HTC TyTN II
Editors' ratings (How we rate)	8 Excellent	8 Excellent	8 Excellent	7 Very good	7.9 Excellent
Review Summary	Though not perfect, the i780 is an excellent choice for those who want the most features in a sub-S$1,000 PDA-phone.	The combination of HTC's Touch interface and a slew of connectivity options makes the Cruise viable for those who balked at the shortcomings of the Touch and Touch Dual.	If the lack of Wi-Fi is not a big issue for you, the Touch Dual, with its great design and improved UI, is an excellent choice for both newcomers and experienced Windows Mobile users.	With more color choices and much better performance due to the increased RAM, the enhanced Touch is what the original should have been to begin with.	It may not be a quantum leap compared with the 838 Pro, but the TyTN II maintains what power users loved in the previous iteration--with a few extras.
