Honestly, my Touch was flawless.. Perfect screen, perfect speaker, cool battery, great GPS, etc...
I just want that damn VGA screen!  hopefully when I exchange mine tomorrow, I will get one that takes care of ALL my concerns. |

For those who have had a Mogul and now have the Touch Pro, do you find the keyboard sliding mechanism isn't as good as the Mogul on the TP? Also, is text entry actually slower than the Mogul on the keyboard? |
unfortunately in my experience with all 4 HTC device, the Pro feels the flimsiest of the 4. The touch and diamond were both rock solid, no loose anything or real huge defects. Mogul was ok build quality too until the white spots on the screen down the line. the Pro just feels cheap out of the box.
As ive posted, the keyboard slider just feels really poorly designed and implemented. When the slider is shut, it can twist quite a bit and feels loose when you wrap your hand around it (jiggles like the slider would pop open). Also however they put the 2 halves of the device (top and keyboard) together vs the mogul was a crappy design. the hinge end to the right of the phones is ok, but the to the left side its just a gap between the two parts. When you tap on the screen from about the center of the screen to the left, the two halves come together and make a disconcerting clacking sound and is flexing the two halves. Its also hard to navigate a wobbling screen moving back and forth with finger pressure. Seems poorly designed.
its still a toss up because i love the phone overall still. I still have 22 days so ill wait it out a little.
