HTC Touch Cruise - CNET

HTC-Touch-Cruise-Review.jpg

CNET have published a review of the HTC Touch Cruise Windows Mobile 6 smartphone. 'On front, you'll find a 2.8-inch touch screen with a 65,000-color output and 320x240-pixel resolution. Text and images looked sharp and vibrant, and the touch screen was responsive. Since the smartphone came out before the HTC Touch Diamond, the Cruise uses the original TouchFLO interface found on the HTC Touch and the HTC Touch Dual, rather than the newer 3D interface of the Diamond. The smartphone does feature the roomier 20-key and 12-key QWERTY keyboards that found its way onto the Sprint HTC Touch and Verizon Wireless XV6900, but we still had a hard time composing text messages and e-mails. Rather than small buttons, the more frustrating and time-consuming issue was having to tap multiple times to get the right letter.

Below the display, there are Talk and End keys, a GPS button, a shortcut to Internet Explorer, and a navigation wheel with a center select button. In addition to pressing it up, down, left, and right, you can rotate the wheel clockwise or counterclockwise to move through the menu items. We were initially concerned with the navigation wheel since it felt very loose, but as we used it to navigate through the menus, we found that it has good control.'
