HTC Touch Cruise (2009) Review
Score: 42.1 / 100HTC Touch Cruise (2009) is a low-end Windows Mobile Professional device released in 2009, featuring a 2.8" screen, a processor clocking at 528 megahertz and a 3.2 MP back facing camera. That's everything we have to say? Not at all, it's only the introduction of a much deeper review.
HTC ships this device with a good 528 MHz CPU, included in the Qualcomm Snapdragon S1 MSM7225 chip with only 256 MB RAM.
This phone is a bit thick compared to today's devices, with its 0.57 inches thickness. Although the HTC Touch Cruise (2009) is 4.02 inches long, it only comes with a much smaller 2.8" display. This time, it seems like HTC forgot about optimizing the weight in this 3.63 ounces device.
The HTC Touch Cruise (2009) only has a 3.2 MP back-facing camera.
HTC equipped this device with a good 2.8" display, and a 240 x 320 (QVGA) resolution, which makes everything look quite good.
This phone provides Wi-Fi connectivity (but it can't provide it to other devices acting as a modem or router) and 3G fast connection type, over HSDPA technologies. The HTC Touch Cruise (2009) doesn't have a sim card, because it is not a GSM cellphone.
This phone uses a small sized 1100 mAh Li - Ion battery, which is quite poor for a consuming device like this.
