Question mogul to touch pro-- why?

what will the raphael do that the mogul can't? obviously it has tuchflo 3d, and an extra row of keys, but is it really gonna be that much of an upgrade? I think that my mogul seems more practicle than it, in several instances (especially the lac of hardware keys). any thoughts?

Re: mogul to touch pro-- why?

I agree about the hardware keys, but honestly, I don't use them that much... I'll really miss the scroll wheel, but that's about it.

As for the upgrades, the memory difference between the two is enough to convince me to switch. with 6 times the memory, I don't see the pro getting bogged down like my mogul does (unless they release WM7 and it's a memory hog)...

I don't even care that much about touchflo.. maybe I'll like it, maybe I won't.. but for me, the attraction of the pro lies in the internal hardware.

Re: mogul to touch pro-- why?

Well I'm a big fan of the browser... I have a mogul right now and up until a week ago when I got skyfire I hated using my mogul for internet use. I'm going to buy the diamond or touch pro whatever its call when it comes out for sprint and use it for 30 days. If I feel its worth my money I will keep it. If I dont... Back it goes! By the way, the one thats coming out for sprint on the 28th is it the one with the keyboard or not? I really want a keyboard on mine!

do you know anything about ppcs ?


the biggest part for me is the ram. the ram on the mogul really dissaponited me, you can keep your mogul if you want know one here is making you upgrade. im pretty sure by next year almost every post will be about the Touch Diamond & Touch Pro

Re: mogul to touch pro-- why?

I love my mogul most of the time but at times I just want to break it. The Answer and hang up buttons are raised too high and keep pressing while in my pocket. To remedy that I installed S2U2 but that program sometimes bog down and refuses to let me answer my phone. I am an extremely calm and passive person most of the times but I hate electronics that don't function properly.


I noticed that the call and end keys on the touch pro are flat. That and the ram are the only reason I am getting the phone. I can care less about touch flo and will most likely disable it as it seems worthless.

S2U2 helps sometimes, but often it glitches on Apache and when I unlock it launches every f-ing button that was pressed while locked. lol

The ram is where its at for me as well. Now don't get me wrong I love my mogul but if I had to do it all over again I would have just kept my 6700. But what can I say my pockets where burning to spend some money and I did like the slightly smaller size of the mogul and gps so I got it. Right now, memory management is a daily activity for me when using the mogul and I hate it at times, it can be very frustrating. So touch pro here I come.

Re: mogul to touch pro-- why?

more keys, more ram, tv/video out, touchflo3d, vga screen, accelerometer, 3.2mp camera, sounds like enough of an upgrade for me

meh i'd like just a lil bit more to consider it enough for an upgrade lol No but you basically hit it on the head... i'd only add the 4gb onboard... i dont even care that it's not removable, I'm still using the 512kb card that came with my mogul! So 4 gigs is a clear upgrade for someone in my situation...

and as someone else mentioned no longer having the raised lip of the mogul is another stroke of genius IMO...
