Review Summary

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.

Business users looking for a competent, no-nonsense smartphone will like the E72 for its breadth of features and stylish design.

There are a lot of things we like about the N900, but just as many which annoy us. That said, it's still a very capable smartphone (if you call it that), but just not ready for primetime, yet.

HTC's first smartphone with WM6.5 ticks almost all the boxes for an entry-level smartphone, though it needs to be cheaper to differentiate itself from more highly-specced products.
