Re: Sprint Touch Pro owners... what don't you like about it?

the call quality is great for me. I have no idea why it sounds metallic to some users. I came from a Treo 755p and used Diamond for 2 weeks. TP doesn't get hot like the Diamond either, just a little warm sometimes (I have talked for more than 1 hour at a time on it). Looks great so far. After first charge the battery lasted my over 12 hours that is with over 1 hr phone calls, 10 min of internet, and continuously playing with it.

Re: Sprint Touch Pro owners... what don't you like about it?

I got the phone yesterday, havent had much to time to play with it. Coming from the Mogul since it first came out last year.
Here are the things I have not gotten use to:
-d-pad, havent figured out how it works
-3dflo application, its really touchy
-taking the battery cover off, I feel like I'm breaking it off.
-Holster, it looks and feels cheap, i hate the zelcro straps
-Keyboard lights only stays on for 1.5 seconds, well that what it feels like.
-Opera, not used to using this application (also getting a error message on some websites"Messageware Navguard Security Event", Outlook Web Access website has blocked your web browser.
These are things I noticed right away and I'm sure there are some fixes to some of my initial issues.

Things I really like so far:
-Application seem to run faster
-Screen Rocks!
-Keyboard
-Layout

I hate saying this, but I have tought of returning the PRO. My Mogul has been great, but I will give the PRO 3 weeks or so.

Re: Sprint Touch Pro owners... what don't you like about it?

Wow, if the lack of hardware buttons is the primary complaint then I think this phone is a resounding success I'm interested to see how stable it is and how many resets per day the average user will experience...

The ram and performance increase is what attracts me the most to this phone and so far it sounds like it delivers! The "back" button appears to be a good analogue for the Mogul's "OK", Touchflo is just a plugin and can be disabled and replaced with Ultimate Launch, and my preference is to have less buttons (especially given how redundant the Mogul's 3 OK buttons are) that I can easily get by without hardware buttons to navigate the phone.

Keep the reviews and comparisons comin'!

thats EXACTLY what i was thinking, biggest complaint has been buttons, which is a silly complaint IMO just takes an adjustment of usage is all. If thats the most common complaint then its a pretty good device overall

Why hilarious? Just because they LED displays white doesn't mean it not multi-color capable. If it is, its just a matter of accessing it like he did with nueLED.

Re: Sprint Touch Pro owners... what don't you like about it?

General consensus is - The Mogul camp seems to hate this phone (lack of face keys and LED status indicator) but the Diamond camp seems to love this phone. Thanks guys!
