I must admit that when I first got this phone I was not totally impressed, but after over a year of use, this phone has become an essential part of my life.
The touch flo software has made the phone very user friendly and is a huge improvement over the standard Microsoft U.I. The screen is bright and crisp and the internal speaker is great for hands free use.
Making a call is simple as the alpha numeric keypad can be used to access your contacts, and call reception is good.
Battery life also seems to hold up well even when the little phone is used for Satnav and Multiedia use. I love to watch films while traveling and you can watch a couple of movies and still have 1/2 the battery left.
Considering the relatively low powered processor the phone seems to manage all tasks quickly enough, playback of Divx movies played on the free and excellent TCPMP movie player is surprisingly flicker free.
The phone is let down by the low memory capacity, satnav software will take up most of the phone's memory. I have had to re-install programs in differing order in order to fit my most essential software on-board, but I've managed it. I currently have my device running Co-Pilot and the new Opera 9 browser, even though the latter often requests more memory. If you consider the plus points of having such a useful and versitile device in such small form factor, the positives definately outway the negatives.
In summation this phone does everything it is supposed to do and does it well. It is a discreet yet powerful work tool. HTC have hit on a winner here.
I recently got a touch Pro as a replacement and have found myself switching back to the Touch as it by far a more practical and reliable device.

This is a great phone.
I've got a weakness for cool gadgets, especially phones and have had a few touchscreen phones that were just impractical and too bulky, so I was hesitant to get this one. But then I saw how slim it was, and a few videos of how the TouchFLO worked and I didn't stand a chance.
One thing worth noting is that the TouchFLO interface is kinda wasted, it's just a bolt on to get you started using the usual Windows Mobile system, but there are a few programmes available online that go a bit further using a similar interface, which really does enhance the phone further.
Another bugbear is texting, it ships with every input interface Windows mobile usually does, except the phonepad, which is the most useful one. However, again with a little browsing on the internet you can find it free to download.
The camera's 2 megapixel and decent enough, though kinda eclipsed lately by alot of newer phones.
It's not a 3G phone but is WiFi enabled which works well, I've only used Internet Explorer which comes with it, but Opera mobile is said to work alot better.
I'd really recommend it. Despite it being a year or so old now and a bit eclipsed by some of the newer and flashier phones I'm still sticking with it, which really does say something about it.
Great... but not for the heavy phone user August 7, 2008

As other reviewers have said, this is more of a PDA than a phone and the phone capability is merely one amongst the myriad of functions it offers. Like most of Jack of All Trades it is not really a master of any of them but it does a workmanlike job of dealing with them all. Being a Windows based device allows it access to a wealth of third party software to expand its' capabilities still more.
The device looks great, small and attractive with an excellent build quality. The HTC Today screen looks good and this leads us on to the the iphone like 'Touchflow' interface. On first sight this is good, big icons for the main functions of the phone that roll up and rotate to the (three!) sides of a cube at the touch of a finger. However, 'Touchflow' is very much a sexy skin that sits atop of the Windows Mobile 6.0 body. You are back to the usual Windows Mobile screens when you select the 'Touchflow' option you want and have to give up up using your finger in favour of the stylus.
There is a tiny and delicate chrome strip which you pull aside (if your can) to reveal slots for the MicroSD card (supplied) and SIM card. Due to the possibly fragile nature of the strip this is a task best attempted as infrequently as possible.
It works well as a phone, but the lack of a conventional keyboard means heavy phone users may well want to look elsewhere. It has an excellent hands free capability and it was the work of a moment to synchronise with with my Parrot RNB car hands free kit.
The camera is a good as you have a right to expect in a phone, likewise the video. It connects instantly to my wifi network, can send and receive email, browse the internet, and with the right software can even be used as a SIP or Skype phone. With a bluetooth receiver it functions well as a GPS navigator.
The Good:
Sleek and sexy appearance
On board wifi and bluetooth
Windows Mobile 6 OS
Good build quality
Good camera
1 Gig memory card supplied
The Bad
Slow in use
Poor access to SIP and memory cards
Lack of keyboard and buttons
Power switch recessed too well
Uses non standard headphone socket
Need to use a stylus to access beyond top menu level.
Screen hard to read in sunlight
If you are looking for a small, sleek and sexy wifi PDA with a built in phone and have the time and inclination to explore all it has to offer then the Touch is a worthwhile purchase.

This handset has everything required for a combined pda/phone device. the interface is a joy to use and although the windows mobile6 operating system is not a huge improvement it is much more stable than WM5.
Just a great device.
 Its more PDA than Phone but ... April 9, 2008

I bought an HTC Touch to replace my mobile phone and Dell X30i PDA (organiser).
If you are looking for a classic Microsoft PDA with a phone combined then this Touch is worth looking at to compare against other machines. But.. it is pretty slow slow (living with it for 10 months you begin to notice) and built in memory is very poor (so watch out if you have a large calendar/contct list to sync).
The big problem for me is support from HTC. I was unlucky enough to buy one of the first devices in the country and it suffers a dust/smudge problem in the middle of the screen. In fact I bought two of these three weeks apart and BOTH OF THEM have the exact same fault. I later found a ZD-Net review that pointed this out before the product was even released.
Even though HTC admitted they had a 'bad batch' of phones they refuse to replace my devices. They will repair them but talking to other sufferers the repairs are worse than the smudge on the screen.
My conclusion is that the only good thing about the touch is its size and the 'Today' page. But you really don't need to buy a HTC or a Touch to equal these.
Buy something else..
