Orange HTC TyTN II

If you're on Orange and want a smartphone then the TyTN II is the premier choice.

Alas, the Orange version of the TyTN II isn't the cheapest smart phone in the world - if you want it on a tariff costing less than an eye-watering £55 per month you'll have to shell out at least £90. That's a lot for a slightly different paintjob - on...

HTC TyTN II review

Windows can offer just as much as Apple on the smartphone front

Tilting keyboard ; 3G ; Good connectivity

Quite bulky ; Small icons on screen

If you're looking for a Windows alternative to the iPhone, the TyTN II provides a neat package

HTC TyTN II smartphone

HSDPA, GPS, Wi-Fi, 3 megapixel camera, QWERTY keyboard

Big, heavy, no cool factor, clunky

The HTC TyTN II is a brick of a mobile phone that is as about as exciting as watching paint dry. However, with so much packed into the device you can't help think that for the geeky mobile worker open to the idea of anything that is Microsoft powered...

HTC TyTN II / Kaiser / HTC P4550 Review

I mentioned in my HTC Touch review that HTC seem to be pushing the envelope with their handsets at the moment. It's fair to say that HTC are adding features and functionality quicker than even Microsoft themselves. Now, with the TyTN II, HTC has throw...

Face it, there’s just no way your company is going to spring for an iPhone. The TyTN II, on the other hand, is just geeky and clunky enough to get past that hatchet-faced harridan in Accounts. HTC TyTN II is tagged with HTC. Select a tag (HTC, for...

HTC TyTN II

Determined to prove that it can make a Windows Mobile device that is both fun to use and powerful, HTC has given the TyTN a major makeover.

Packed with software / large Qwerty keyboard / built-in GPS

Slow / requires a stylus to use the touch screen properly

With the TyTN II, HTC has tried to make this smartphone more consumer-friendly, placing more emphasis onto things like the built-in media player, and adding its own home screen interface that displays in one easy view how many unread emails, text...

HTC TyTN II

HTC was doing touchscreen smartphones when the iPhone was just a twinkle in Steve Jobs' eye, and is continually improving both features and functionality. Its latest, the TyTN II, is one of the most formidable smartphones around

Wi-Fi and 3G HSDPA high-speed connectivity, Excellent tilt screen mechanism good for desktop typing, Heavyweight business functionality

Size and weight, Camera functionality could be improved, More of HTC's user-friendly interface would be good

For the business user, this is currently the best smartphone on the market

HTC - TyTN II

Choosing a Windows Mobile device isn't easy. If you have the luxury of not being tied into an operator contract, then there is a huge array of SIM-free options, and weighing up their features can be ...

It is the tilting screen that steals the show as far as the HTC TyTN II is concerned, but there are other factors that draw us to it as well. The plentiful features, good mini keyboard and software extras all add up to make the TyTN II a strong...
