HTC Touch (2nd generation) compared to the most popular

Compare to top rated mobile phones »

Product name	HTC Touch (2nd generation)	Samsung Omnia II (I8000)	Nokia N900	Sony Ericsson Xperia X10
Editors' ratings (How we rate)	7 Very good	7.7 Excellent	6.7 Very good	CNET Asia editor's take
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.	Though some may shun Windows Mobile because of other newer operating systems out there, there's no denying that the Omnia II presents great value-for-money compared with most other touchscreen smartphones.	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.
